This is like the whole “don’t call them drones call them UAVs.” Thing in that community a few years ago. Everyone still calls them Drones. Sorry, crypto means crypto currency now.

I hear you, I’m just one of those pair programming zealots now. Whenever we work with clients who insist on PR workflow eventually we just bury them in PRs and it basically slows velocity to a crawl until we sort out the ownership and start

Yes, they are a giant waste of time and in general slow things down and don’t improve your ability to add more features over time. Bigger win from having good tests and properly factored code encourage by shared owership (no disincentives t

There’s explicitly no guidance system. It just keeps the rockets more or less vertical. Been following along with his efforts on Twitter for a year and a half or so. He’s made pretty impressive progress and streams a lot of build/debug

Not sure about the speed criticism. Usually it’s memory usage by the JVM that’s a turn off. Out of the other languages you mentioned Clojure is for sure slower but if you’re working with that or another JVM language like Kotlin you’re so ha

Happy? Aim lower. How about making it through the day. One step at a time. Don’t over think it or think you can will your way out of this. You can’t. If you could you’d be better or managing already. Take a step. Btw, I have two kids as wel

I’ve worked with the founder at a previous place and I’d give him the benefit of the doubt on the AI thing. I’m positive they will eventually try to do some tricky stuff with machine learning if they aren’t already.

Read the options agreement or whatever mechanism was used (or have an attorney read it). Sometimes there’s language in there that allows the company to buy back options you exercised at current valuation all the way up to ipo.

The best solution for speeding up code reviews is to not do them at all. Have tests, have a ci system and pipelines, empower the team to deploy and rollback (especially non-technical folks). Any green build should be deployable by your PM o

Couple of ideas that I’ve used when working on and through my own stuff. 1) Track your time. Pay for a time tracking app (one that has a timer you can start and stop) and “bill” to your own projects. 2) Renegotiate commitments to yourself a

Whatever one gives you a better deal financially. They are both fine schools and unless you have designs on politics pick the cheaper option. My 2 cents.

These articles never mention pair programming as a solutions but it’s also an option with a lot of benefits.

Maybe I’m not paying attention but I work in SOMA (scooter central) and have yet to see a scooter parked in the middle of the sidewalk or blocking a path. They are everywhere but not really under foot.

I’d recommend a good pediatrician (with a night nurse line if possible) since you will see them often the first six month. The books and classes are kinda a waste of time. But whatever makes you comfortable and eases you’re stress etc is gu

We are building billion dollar software products that take hundreds or thousands of “man years”, with rigorous processes. So, respectfully, you can complain all you want but engineer is a fine title and description even if the software vari

I spent two years on a self funded hardware startup. It failed and I spent all but 10k of my money (including retirement) by the time I paid off debt that would have trashed my credit for years. (Thanks partner) It was hard and painful and

It’s too bad, I looked into them a few years ago when I needed to ship a couple hundred items out over the course of a week or two. Ultimately it made more sense to spend 150 bucks on a label printer and clobber together a workable system t

You’re going to be disappointed. That said we do a lot of Spring Boot with react front end and it works. I don’t like Java very much and the docs are not as good as rails and the surface area is huge but... wait why do you want to write J

Find a full-service laundry place and pay them to do it. I've got two kids, and the four of us go through a shit-ton of laundry. If you can afford it [1], and you're in a city or neighborhood where one is available, it saves hours
