OKRs Are Bullshit 2 years ago

OKR should be something those managers use, not things we programmers(well if you like, call me coder is ok, I don't care) should do. Because it's those managers manage our jobs. If no one can manage my job except me, I'd like to use OKR.

You became a millionaire. But I, who had always ranked in the top ten in a small town of more than 100+k people before college, still did not own a house after working for 10+ years.

php + htmx should work good. But it's still website, not webapp. Complex front end operations are hard to implemente in htmx.

api server + react/vue/angular work good. They are just js(templates compiled to js). They are for building webapps.

Anyway, html is not turing complete.

Do Not Build SaaS 3 years ago

If we already have UBI(universal basic income), brilliant people may be more willing to develop free software and change the world. I don't know why we haven't. Industrialization, education and welfare should solve every problem.

Add less, ship less, worry about less. -- HTML is all you need to make a website

But if I could, I'd like to add none, ship none, worry about none. My employer made me add so many shit. I have no choice.

Why not use public key as IP. Like yggdrasil-go, use `public_key.sha256.first_63_bit === ipv6[1..64]` (maybe some data error but here is how it works). Well, yggdrasil is an overlay network, it can do that. But the ISP network cann't. Maybe we all should move to an overlay network.

Very few engineers want to maintain relationships with customers, interview users to identify potential features, manage leadership, play politics for resource allocation, and so on.

Because the more you do, the more you are responsible for, but what you get doesn't increase. It's a question of profit distribution.

Not by AI 3 years ago

AI generate different things, people choose the good one. Opinion is the value, just like Protagoras's "man is the measure of all things".

Just like "man is the measure of all things", I believe "opinion is the value".

People may get freak out by AI taking their job, but if you have things to eat, nothing to worry, if you don't have things to eat, kill the man who control the AI. I believe the word "job" will be take out from the future dictionary.

People may worry the AI will generate homogeneous and prejudiced content, but the AI is serving us human beings, maybe we will offer AI lesser and lesser new things, but we can tell it "what's good"(that's the opinion), the AI will generate new and good things(that's the value).
