In "Here Be Dragons," Dan tackles the challenge of navigating complex codebases and distributed systems. Inspired by ancient maps that marked unknown areas with dragons, the blog proposes creating "pirate maps" of software systems to highlight risks, technical debt, and areas of uncertainty. These collaborative maps help teams visualize complexity, share knowledge, and build a common understanding of their systems.
