I have the personality type you speak of. 1. I don’t do everything in your list. In fact retrospectively I’d say I’ve allocated much more time and energy into building things than nurturing friendships and relationships. I have a general in

I don’t understand the game. I tapped the screen maybe 30 times and went through it typing to itself and failing and succeeding at different tasks. If I kept going would I eventually get to type something?

Why would you think the intense learning and broad experience gained from an attempt at starting your own thing would harm your career? Seems obvious to me and in my personal experience and everyone I’ve seen go try their own thing, can rep

I was very big on deno when it came out but they seem to have lost their way. I jumped on bun before they hit 1.0 and it’s been life changing. Have actually gone down the rabbit hole since then and also got turned on to zig and am building

I think people see extensions as a way to bypass code signing, distribution, and brand building. So chrome (or whatever) becomes a platform for distributing and executing software.

I’ve been around the block a few times in tech startups, two separate startups the founders were friends before I joined as an employee. In both cases I met and became friends with them at previous startups where we were all employees in di

Maybe the types of wrapper startups and apps people are building with GPT4 are obviously going to be replaced by GPT5 in a few months. There will be huge backlash because startups, VCs, and solo devs aren’t thinking big enough. Could be tha

Your “experience” of subjectivity is really just an illusion. Your subconscious mind makes very deterministic decisions milliseconds before your conscious mind is even made aware of it, and it feels like you’re deciding consciously but you’

It’s like autotune. Artisans who can sing on key will continue to make very interesting things. But also in parallel a whole new wave of people that couldn’t or didn’t want to learn to sing on key will make entirely new genres of music and

But cruise is developing self driving “public transit vehicles” as well. I’d rather have fleets of various sized vehicles that can travel on any road than spend billions and years of disruption extending rail by a few blocks (as is currentl

You can forget to commit a file and it will work on your machine but break everything for your coworkers locally and in production. I see this class of issue often in early startups that don’t have robust CI implemented yet. Like literally

Just make them fill out a timesheet in google sheets or something. And then their chore “paycheck” is every two weeks. Like simulated work / prep for the real world.

This. Also their pay check before being laid off likely gave them many years of cushion to survive the layoff and get another job, maybe outside of tech, maybe found a company and hire their friends that were laid off with them

Because my mother, and the last mentee I had, are both dark triad people and neither of them came close to CEO. It’s quite the opposite their behavior is self defeating and they accomplish little in life because it’s more like a disability.
