Insert Look What They Need To Mimic A Fraction Of Our Power meme here.

Intellectual dishonesty is corruption

You answered your own question. Call with

const isAdmin = true; . . . createUser(user, isAdmin, sendWelcomeEmail)

The Internet you are referring to is not meant for low latency streaming. This is what it takes make it low latency. MPEGTS is proven stable and ubiquitous. If only it has less overhead.

Kubernetes networking is an inefficient mess.

That’s too young to get married. You never learned to be alone.

Embrace the fact that this is an opportunity: The wall is now empty, you can draw anything you want!

Focus on yourself : Read books, go to gym, eat healthy/cook

To socialize : meetup or equivalent, sports with people/hike

Do not date. Do not get on apps. Do not hook up.

Minimize drinking.

Read psychology and philosophy. Do not read self improvement books.

Give yourself time, it fixes everything.

Once you are happy with the person you have become (i.e. you look back at this post and realize you are at a higher level of consciousness) you can date.

You are talking to a human and they have feelings.

They feel guilty for not answering sooner and they are letting that known. It makes life beautiful.

First to market is not necessarily the best, case in point: many video sites existed before Youtube, including ones based on Apple Quicktime. But in the end Flash won.

To me it looks like there is a better way to do things and the better one eventually wins.

bits == entropy.

Everything else is word play.

But don’t you think that’s how silly Elon’s rockets look like while they are landing?

1) Build a mobile platform with wheels that starts at the beginning of the runway

2) matches speed with the plane as it enters runway.

3) Plane will “touchdown” on the mobile base gently since speeds are matched.

4) Lock the plane to base and decelerate the base in a controlled manner.

If you can gently lock the base and plane you can even save the plane

Compare this with how customer requests end up in products in startups:

Step 1: Customer <-> Sales/Product (i.e., CEO). Step 2: Product <-> Direct to Engineering (i.e., CTO)

The latency between Step1 and Step2 is 10 minutes. CEO leaves the meeting takes a piss and calls the CTO.

- Simple features take a day: CTO to actual implementation latency depends on how hands on the CTO is. In good startups CTO is the coder. Most features will make its way into the product in days.

- Complex Features take a few days: This is a tug of war between CTO - CEO and indirectly the customer. CTO will push back and try to hit a balance with CEO while the CEO works with the customer to find out what is acceptable. Again latency is measured by days.

Big companies cannot do this and will stifle your growth as an engineer. Get out there and challenge yourselves.

Things you shouldn’t spend time on in a start up

The “pros” list is exceptionally weak. This was clearly written by someone who doesn’t like exceptions. Can’t blame them.

Spot on. There are disproportionately few people who care for the product. Most people care for making that fat promotion package so they can move up. Both eng and non eng.

Frog & Toad is a grown up book disguised as children’s book. I very much enjoyed reading it to my boys.

Hard no buddy. Junior dev means junior code and junior judgement. Countless times we had prod issues because some dev thought the change was harmless and they didn't need review.

Sorry I’m too paranoid about this stuff.

I couldn’t get past ”Paste the private key file id_ed25519 into the .git directory of your current repo,”

Take Counterexample #2. Add n5 as another arrow from n3. That looks like a legitimate use case to me.

Anything technically interesting you can share about any of these?

How do you decide on which parts to extract?

What models do you use for the features you listed?

Good faith and common sense is being violated. That’s a valid point here.

False sense of accomplishment.

Doing what you want to do instead of what you should doing (hint: you should be busy making money).

Inability to triage and live with imperfections.

Not prioritizing business and democratizing decision making.

If the only tool you know is a hammer, everything starts looking like a nail.
