The most important thing product people need to understand is to not treat engineers as mindless robotic resource that you can deploy on any problem and get the output of Code. Engineers are human beings so it makes sense to create environm

MTV was not watching you interactively. There was no data "dance" between your usage pattern and what shows MTV showed you. There was no Feedback Loop. This is much more sinister than passive consumption of media.

I think technical debt should be called "management debt" because management is the primary source of such debts. Technical debt implies it something engineers forgot to do or were just lazy to do it. While it maybe the case in so

iMindMap is a pretty good software. I am using it to build mindmap for iOS interviews. I am also thinking of creating algo related one in future. There seems to be around 50-60ish main patterns in coding problems that are being repeated in

I don't think Anki supposed to be used that way. Each card should be recallable under 10 seconds. So it should be only few lines of content. More content you put in one Anki card, it will take you more time and eventually you will stop

Thats how primates think. Are we not going to progress beyond that logic?

Primates living in futurist cages will still be primates. Its time for us to realize that we are moving towards possible futures devoid of real progress. More sensors, cameras, fasters connections, unlimited entertainment will not help us b
