Quarterly business review in my experience

In my experience there are many reasonable incentives that shut these things down. Execs don’t want the even small maintenance burden on already stretched-thin dev teams (low ROI and bad opportunity costs), and individual devs want to work

Don't agree with your framing on the dividing line. I think the real difference is between groups that treat truth seeking as the end goal vs. those who treat truth seeking as a means to action. These two groups are in constant tension

in non-unionized jobs in the US, yes this is true for all intents and purposes. it's not very easy in larger corporations, but they can pretty much always make it happen

The latter are often first in the chopping block and you’ll spend quite a bit of time trying to validate your own team’s existence. The aggressive product teams will probably have better career opportunities. Both paths are fine, it’s a tra

These all boil down to “any collection of organisms will act the same as one organism”. It will focus on survival and self interest first. It’s an emergent property from the incentives of the (potentially well-meaning) individuals Useful fo

not sure why you were downvoted - I agree. teslas were very reasonable compared to other options when I looked

That was one of the worst books I’ve ever read. I went into it expecting practical advice and found mostly vague hyperbolic promises of the magical benefits. If the hypothesis was that this note taking method produces lower effort, higher q

I think this is why these teams are really hard to have in a mature org. In reality maybe 5% of projects in one of these innovation orgs is actually great! But it’s impossible to evaluate and everyone else is thinking some variant of “this

Americans being into hierarchy is a bizarre opinion. Are you confusing it with asian countries?

I never really saw the late night credit thing as the reason people didn’t want to invest. It was mostly just things usually took a long time to fix/resolve and the payoff was uncertain. It usually took sustained downtime and actual po

You’re right, I worded that terribly. Not changing it though

It’s only 10k and global services in pre boarding. And it’s gotten a lot shorter lately because I think everyone’s covid status extensions ran out (mine did). Group 2 is much longer now

I can’t agree with this any more. If you find yourself always thinking “I’ll do the laundry, let me just find a good podcast first” you are in trouble. It’s so easy just to have constant input these days

Why garbage? It has limitations but is incredibly useful for what it is

in reality I think this flexibility is overrated. traveling for long periods of time sounds exciting but will eventually for most people be isolating (you won't materially be a part of the local community, and other travelers will leav

Two-tower embedding are fairly common approaches in big tech firms, so you should adjust your perception of how knowledgeable you are about machine learning

I just tried to go with the only iPad Pro for travel option (I really wanted this to work), but had to return it and go back to my MacBook Air. The iPad is just not as good at many basic productivity workflows. Really basic stuff like switc

No not really. Gaslighting has an intent to deceive someone to pull them away from reality. CBT starts with the assumption by both people that the patient is away from reality and gives them tools to bring them closer. Gaslighting is like

I agree. Every hiring process will have false negatives. Pointing out every one doesn’t invalidate the effectiveness of the process

I don't think that's the only line - I am pretty introverted but like having a place outside of my home where I can work. It's enough of a "default mildly social" situation to not feel isolated or restless if I want

I'm not sure what you're trying to get at here. I've worked with these phone manufacturers and they often used the term market share to refer to share of sales / shipments / whatever over a monthly or quarterly time

I think your way is very normal (I do the same). Inductive matches how humans really tell stories but isn’t the right tool for an e-mail to execs

That’s a bizarre statement. SF has ugly areas but still feels very safe. Would feel much more comfortable being dropped off in the worst places there vs Chicago, St Louis, LA, Miami, New Orleans, Atlanta and a bunch of other places
