A lot goes into making a product that people love, if you can master the customer, market dynamics, pricing, pitch, product, service, etc to be growing really fast, you can probably learn basic corporate finance. That's what the VCs a

I understand the downvotes for being the graphic nature of your post but I learned from your post that the former CEO of Binance US has been missing for almost a year. Holy cow that feels important, the article is outlining her questioning

The first sentence: >It’s well-established consensus that software is slower and more bloated than it was 20, 40 years ago. That's an absurdly ridiculous statement presented as fact with no citations

I went to Argentina for a month in 2011 to visit a friend. As soon as I got there he was trying to exchange for my usd cash I brought and offered me more than I'd get at the currency exchange, he told me he didn't trust his own c

There's over 600 comments on this thread and you came here to say that you're still missing a single argument for in-office work? I can't help you through your mental block, only you can and it's hard work for sure. Also

Put yourself in the executives shoes for a second, they're not stupid people, they know how large the risk of blowback is and how many employees they might disenfranchise or lose. They're that confident that remote work is a big

Hit the nail on the head. I think it's actually a bit worse on the refactoring, yes the next snooty Sr engineer you hire will say you did it wrong. The bigger issue is that working on "technical debt" actually introduces bug

Man, people are so assumptive and negative about one of the world's greatest innovators today. Hasn't he earned any respect? I know layoffs are really tough but does anyone really believe there was no reason for them at Twitter

it's hard for me to get past the sleep advice, it sounds misguided at best. Sure there are studies if you google oversleeping, they define it as sleeping over 9 hours a night and it sounds it usually is associated with low quality sle
