I purchased on 2022-03-01 and the estimated arrival was “Late 2022” (group 5). Now, I won’t get it by late 2022, and I kinda doubt I’ll get it by late 2023. But there’s not really any communication or acknowledgement / accountability.

The content taught here is the highest payout thing you can learn, in my opinion. Certainly more important than actually writing code or learning algos. What this content covers should unlock iteration speed, which is the single greatest le

As an American, your metaphor makes absolutely no sense to me. Why would a European think an American would possess a gun in their country? And how would they get it there through customs - it’s not an idea? And a gun is a lethal weapon - i

I had a product manager at my last job, who took the feedback from a retro, “we have too many meetings, we have no time to focus”, and created a new recurring meeting, “how to effectively manage your time” (30m, weekly).
