1) Sales. Co-founded a B2B startup, so this is now a pressing concern, and as a long-time developer it’s one of those things that gives me hives, where I barely even know how to start (got lots of research to do!). It’s going to be -the- challenge of 2024 for me.
2) How to build an OS (in Rust). I’ve seen a few different articles in HN over the years and kept them bookmarked because I think it’ll be a lot of fun to actually make something from scratch and get to have fun with figuring out how it all comes together. How does one even draw stuff on screen from scratch? I’ll get to find out.
- thomashabets2 3y agoFor 2: Apparently it's broken at the moment, but https://wiki.osdev.org/ https://wiki.osdev.org/ is an amazing resource. It's incredibly satisfying to boot into your own multitasking kernel. Back when I did it back in the late 1900s there were a lot fewer resources like this, and a lot more just working it out from Intel manuals. It's a lot of fun, and teaches you a lot.
- alfiedotwtf 3y agoI did the same - booted my own multi-tasking OS in x86 assembly, with osdev.org and alt.os.development being extremely helpful! ... but did you have to call it the 1900s LOL :)
- thomashabets2 3y agoI could have called it the late 1000s. :-)
