I played it. Fun little game. In practice, I found speed to be more fun than trying to get it in 16 moves. Couple of things. 1. How are points calculated. 2. Do I want to go for speed or smaller # of moves? 3. There was no share button o

Interesting enough, years ago I worked on upwork. And now, I get emails from developers in India asking if they can partner with me, use my account to get customers and then split the profits. I have always said no, but this is another way

In fact, you don't even have to have a product to start selling. All my successful products and companies started by selling first and building something only once I already had someone who wanted it. Those turned into companies genera

I have more of an enterprise product working with school districts. It did take some time to get meetings with users, but I did get them. In my case it was similar to any enterprise endeavor. I had a champion to make introductions to the di

Yeah, similar experience. There is never a song stuck in my head. I can remember the lyrics and often sing along to modern pop songs because the chorus is the same or they use very predictable words. But I can remember what touch feels like

I have this for hearing. And after I realized it, I asked a lot of friends about their memories and experienced and found people who like me also have trouble imagining one of the senses. From remembering taste, they never had cravings and

I think your first principle is applicable to all. * Work is a means to an end. A job should support the lifestyle you want to achieve, not be an end on itself. Whether a 10x programmer, a 1x programmer, a startup founder. We all have diffe

I wonder if there would be a good way to monetize a search engine such that returning great results gets them paid. Like a check in if you found what you were looking for, give a penny. Or potentially not what you were looking for, but some
