This is so interesting. Something to read about over the weekend. Thanks!

Ok - you are right . History is wrong. Facebook until 3000. My bad for ever doubting you based on facts and history

Uh - ok

LOL for real. I will cry no tears for FB when they get what’s coming to them. Will be the MySpace of my kids time.(if it’s not already is)

What’s interesting is watching video game streaming in China. When playing games a few times then poking around a little more. I was extremly shocked at how mainstream cheating and stealing is embedded in... ugh I dunno for lack of better words, their current culture? When and how did this become a thing?

Let me clarify I’m pretty naïve on anything China. And not trying to say everyone over there lacks integrity (thought the opposite) but seems like lack of integrity was like trendy from what I could tell?

“I see people on HN defending Zoom all the time.”

I get the vibe with anything China related. Like it takes an over abundance of facts not to be attacked. Zoom fiasco is interesting though. I don’t do anything I don’t mind be monitored on there so sort of careless for now

I hear you, trackpads have kept me in Mac camp for awhile. I loathe the glass ones Apple switched to though. I bought the 13 inch with emjoi bar when it came out. Returned it. Recently bought the 16inch when it came out. Like the new keyboard but ended up returning it as it got insanely loud when plugging in external display.

Hard to beat my 2013 mbp retina I guess I’ll stay with it for now.

Might be high for first time indie dev

Awesome!!!!!!! Thank you

Love it! Does anyone know if something similar for competitors? More specifically azure?

Yeah - someone said the same comment. Me not knowing anything researched it and what I seen trending indicated the opposite. How is this reliably checked ?

I agree. I come to make money and build cool shit. Company provides money in trade of work. That’s it. Nothing more is owed or should feel obligated by saying that family shit. (Rewarding coworking relationships is a cool plus I’ll take though )

You CAN have your cake and eat it too.

I hate to say amongst the commenters I don’t think your opinion is a popular one here. I agree with you.

*Steroids enters the room. Steroids: someone say they can’t bulk and cut? Hold my beer.

Optimize, prioritize, delegate, outsource. Not impossible at all. Learning to balance it takes time. But I assure people it can be done and I’m proof.

but not all.. We have a local company - ArtFire was started by a dude that drop shipping beads. Parlayed it into an etsy basically.

When a new guy on the team refers to base64 encoding as encryption. /me - oh you must be new here?

Serious note - welcome to the future. Nothing is private anymore.

Great question - if I feel like taking leisure time I take it. Easy as that. I justify it by kicking ass and optimizing everything else as best as I can. That is what brings me peace. Knowing I do my best. It's a good balance for me, I naturally found a circle of successful people that do the same(birds of a feather). I don't think one should try to be this way if you are not and I do realize its a bit different. But for me its worked great and truly feel like I'm living a better life every day.

thank you!

I do this mentally when organizing my day. I usually only take one thing into consideration though. Such a simple app with great value to me personally. Thanks for sharing.

Not that I know of. Just something you learn from experience or your users will tell you quickly during validation.

I think I came off wrong. I group together things and hyper-organize them to maximize my output and minimize the time I spend on doing things for growth/maintenance. I meditate daily, find room for some reading, picked up gardening recently. Anything I can streamline I do that to maximize my return as time is a valuable commodity.

Thanks for the comment. I do have a large family I take care of them as single source of income. I found I have to make a conscious effort to ensure I spend time with them. Since I have done that my quality of life improved greatly while still maintaining a hefty work schedule. A couple years back I audited how much time I was spending with my family/kids. It was embarrassing. Besides our normal routines I made the effort to take them to each of their extra curricular activities. 6 days a week 3 kids. I spend individual time with them each week and we go on vacation 3-5 times a year. I’m learning to have my cake and eat it too. But the family life is a conscious effort I have to make to avoid the (I wish I slowed down). Not a day that goes by I don’t love what I do and my life. Given the above I hope I don’t regret it. Time will tell.

This is pretty much my life to the extent of how much I can control it in society.

I never do any singular thing with the exception of work.

I won’t leave the house unless I can divide and group that time into multiple objectives thus spreading the overhead of time lost against many achievements.

If not in a meeting I have my pleasureable conversations via car phone when I commute some where. If I’m not in a meeting when commuting or talking to friend / family I’m streaming a new pluralsight tutorial over Bluetooth.

I work through any meeting that doesn’t maximize my output to 100%. (I’m remote most of the time)

I listen to self growth audio books when I shower.

When I head to the bar if I’m not killing two birds with one stone networking or meeting a client I’ll bring my laptop to get work done.

Tasks that I cannot streamline and time intensive I pay for.

Blah blah I can go on and on.

Ironically the one thing I haven’t mastered is how to delegate to achieve bigger goals leveraging employees.

I see you what you did there! No pun intended on my part, hah.

There is an param to declare response type parsing and if you want to use different parsing. Older versions of powershell use IE and webrequest will randomly barf. It really sucked. You can also use a rest request method that uses json.net to deserialize I believe .

Wow... would have never thunk it

yeah I use to automate a decent amount of stuff for bigger deployments for client with it as it’s easier to pass through security audit then an executable.

I always feel like things in power shell are harder then they need to be that other scripting languages I don’t have that problem. One thing I do like is being able to leverage .net locally and also import DLLs. That helps me get around a bunch of gaps.

Ahhhhh!!! You are correct the docking station. I ment being mobile and doing work. Most definety. I see more devs with docking stations then Apple / Linux combined. I just never seen them used it undocked for dev though lol. Great point!
