I get the impression that the author criticizes bad planning, or estimation. To me, a good plan is a map of dependencies in time.

I think entr handles some things more cleanly, though: 1. Some bash is allowed, which has been confusing me. I'd rather call 'bash -c "echo stuff > file"' myself. 2. Watchexec has its own interface for "filt

I love `entr`, but I've recently moved a lot of my `entr` usage to `watchexec`. Entr requires a file list on stdin, watchexec watches the current folder. With entr: find . | entr COMMAND with watchexec: watchexec COMMAND

Indeed! How will your customer use your product to solve their problem? What hypotheses do you have? How are you going to test those hypotheses? What is the link from "solving this problem is important to me" to "solving this

Civil engineer / software engineer -> startup CEO here. As others, I would nudge you towards testing the waters yourself first. Then hire people who complement you well. Then consider where you want to go from there. It's risky

Agreed - this is a subjective value judgment, hard / impossible to automate. As a list of links to check out, sure. As an automated conclusion? No thanks. Someone is going to have to make a judgment call. If curation isn't built i

I use note taking to think. With a good process and sharp tools, writing let's me solve harder problems, better. And I do want to think better. Currently really happy with Slack, Org-mode and Roam Research, each for its own use.

I'd prefer this to be solved in culture, not in code. New isn't always better; we need a better proxy for value than "amount of new stuff".

I love literal programming. But I don't like the idea that the prose you read is out-of-order relative to the code you write. I prefer a modern language that reads well in-order, that you can read as an outline. That way, you can use t

Have you used CRDTs to solve any practical problems? If so, how does the CRDT solution compare to a non-CRDT solution? If a non-CRDT solution is feasible at all?

I prefer using tools like Linux, Emacs and the terminal because those tools are not prescriptive . Instead, they are flexible. I can mold them to my needs. That flexibility brings a cost of learning, which I'm willing to spend. On the

I also switched from Spacemacs to DOOM. I've decided to stay. Reasons: - DOOM Emacs is fast. Fast to start `emacs --daemon`, fast UX with the default config. - I've experienced DOOM Emacs to be more cohesive than Spacemacs I still
