I recall Ericsson dismissing the 10k-hours rule, precisely because focus and intention largely dominates over time-on-task.

Experience beats convenience and feature set, IMO. I use PyCharm, but I could understand coworkers who refused to move away from vim after 15 years at it.

Good post, thanks! I have a gut feeling that hustling is a more effective strategy than being the best. In a winner-takes-all economy, (as many real economies are) you can do an excellent work and go unnoticed because someone else is alread

In the past I chosen more equity and less salary just to show more compromise / commitment (I know). I accepted the first offer, didn't bother with how much equity it was. Turns out that the company sold 2 yrs later (yay!), then I
