A lot of the roles posted are mostly focused on signalling growth. Plus a lot of companies never really learned how to hire, they just followed what ever comes out of silicon valley without thinking about it.

There are a couple out there but the standards have taken a nose dive.

You should subscribe to more conference youtube channels. Definitely a lot less beginner content.

Depends on the situation. I use a mix of sticky notes and a notebook. If I am in a meeting then I just open notepad++.

You can take a look at these

A lot of meetings suck to be frank but if it is important then your best bet would be to prepare ahead of the meeting in terms of some of the questions you want to ask. Also sharing your views might be a good option as well. You can also ask your colleagues if they feel the same way and potentially change the meeting ritual.

Some things to think about

- Build tools for legal aid

- Helping a volunteer organization with their website

- Building a site where users can see hospital prices in their area

Sounds like superforecasting

Sorry to hear that. - It is definitely tough out there but I think getting in touch with law enforcement should be the first thing

- You can also share posts on social media about it to warn others of it

Not sure how notion is beating Google and MSFT.

I would suggest maybe trying a different area of software development that is not primarily build crud apps.

You could also try different areas technical writing, teaching etc

- Try open source projects

- join a programming meetup group in your area

Cobol, brainf*ck, Ada come to mind

You can try datatau

Definitely a quagmire but there are some things you can do. Some helpful tips

Not every code is pretty so it should make for an interesting learning curve.

Walk through every line of code and create your own documentation using something like this - https://www.writethedocs.org/guide/writing/beginners-guide-t...

Break down the problem into sub-problems. YOU CAN use user stories if possible to understand the business logic.

Talk to your manager and set expectations. It seems they have given you a task that might be more than your currently knowledge set. It could a learning opportunity or a roaring disaster. Either way make sure you tell them what you can do right now and what may take you longer to do.

As you alluded to there are a lot of problems already so it is a matter of picking 1 and finding one person to solve it.

If you are looking for areas to disrupt here are a few

- end of life planning/funerals

- waste water management

- debt management: find optimal way to pay off debt

- supply chain visibility

- checking the quality of supplements

- building a better finance/economics forecasting model/tool

- Truth networks/channels

- Tactical forecasting/Super forecasting

- Highly improved warehouse robots

- First blockbuster VR Game

- More personalized ads in the real world

You can take a look at basecamp - https://basecamp.com/handbook

- 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos

- Extreme ownership

- Design of everyday things

- The Spirit of Kaizen: Creating Lasting Excellence One Small Step at a Time

It definitely differs by organization but you can leverage some of the free resources offered by https://productschool.com as a starting point.

You can take a look at sites like heroX, data for good or MITSolve

freecodecamp is a pretty decent resource.

Found out about this on NPR. I wish her more success.
