This is the most important question. Are you piggybacking off of existing search providers, or is this a search engine from the ground up?

Probably put it back so someone can put it on their promotion packet.

El low hanging fruit.

This. So. Much.

I've always wondered why so many huge companies don't have a huge company library with their gigantic profits.

As an employer, I'd want employees to always be excited about reading and learning new things. The usual PR mumbo jumbo they spew.

Doesn't a company book space support that? A bookspace has extremely high ROI imo. Better than the massive amount of money we pay for some goons to talk for an hour on Zoom to answer questions with some run of the mill generic answer.

Prime example that mechanics, not graphics make the game.

Ha. I would watch this movie.

This is a very well written post. I liked it a lot.

Standup is something I want to try one day. I have a lot of respect for comedians. My gut instinct is that the personality and delivery plays a more important role than the content.

You're correct. Those factors are often overlooked. Kids don't even know that if they ask enough times, there are kind people who are willing to help them.

All this leads me to conclude that we need to do better so these resources to innovate and learn are accessible to all.

I would go to the office to play basketball with my team. I'd think that it'd build team chemistry and cross team collaboration.

Motivation is finite. By the time you get the through red tape to get approvals, permissions, and a million of other things, you have nothing left in the tank to code.

I will check it out after work. Let me just say that this is indeed a legitimate problem. After you train the model, to me it takes at least 3x the amount of effort to deploy and push to production.

I wish it was as easy as drag and dropping the model to target servers after building the model.

Try taking a public speaking class at a nearby university.

I'm going to go on a limb here and guess that you are thinking too fast. In everyday life, try to slow down your speech and get in the habit of listening to yourself. It will help you be more deliberate with words and get into the habit of course correcting.

People have a tendency to talk lot faster than they think. Great speakers know how to control this just like how cars speed up or slow down depending on terrain.

It sucks due to how the current market incentives are laid out. Why the hell would a company want to invest in a junior dev, when they're going to bounce in two years?

Training junior developers is hard and timeconsuming. It also hurts that the variance of quality of software engineers starting out is so wide. There is so much risk involved with someone with 0 experience. More often than not, you get guys who cannot code their way out of a box without you holding their hand every step of the way. Every once in a while you get a crazy whale who can probably code Optimus Prime from scratch.

Everyday sounds a bit too aggressive, but I could see this working maybe on a weekly or monthly basis but in longer form.

A newsletter for one could sound exciting.

For things like that I tend to step through what I'm going to do after the query finishes. You still keep the context and planning in your head helps with the next few steps.

None of those are really "innovative".

Imagine if we had a Right to Replace Software.

It definitely is funny that they do not mention crypto at all. Like they're in denial.

I guess crtyptomining also fits in the umbrella of gaming.

+1. There should be a forum for this book.

One way to do discoverability here is to make a suggestion if you notice the user hoping around between texts during typing.

It's not all Google. The entire medium has shifted for the average user.Overfitted even.

The prior barrier if entry for quality content was that you had to be tech savvy. Now anyone and their mom can publish shit content, play the SEO game, and spam dunk the Internet.

Maybe the solution to this is really some kind fo web3 variant which Wil put up some hurdles again.

This is exciting technology. Something I want but that does not exist is being able to test your blood with your own personal device without sending any of the data or blood over to private corporations. The corporations only sell the software.

You'd be able to download different programs that analyze your current health state from blood, or any other marker. The device would be able to tell if you are at risk for any disease just from a common set of samples.

I know this is kind of unrealistic, because to make better programs you need data from people. But who knows. Maybe one day we'll get there.

^. What they wrote is kind if misleading. You still have to send it over.

Oh God no. I hope they pour tons of money to find out people won't buy their shitty NFTs.

That's a lot of staff - it means 1/5th of your coworkers got laid off...

I'm very bearish on Robinhood - I don't know if they have enough of a moat to defend themselves from other free stock trading apps. People have forgiven so many outages. The Gamestop saga was the straw that broke the camel's back for many.

This. If you want really good devs, they tend to play around with all sorts of things that don't necessarily have economical value. This includes esoteric programming languages.

“He who fights with monsters should be careful lest he thereby become a monster.”

Part of why it is so difficult is that these C-level executives have mastered the art of sounding good with minimal set of accomplishments. Sometimes I listen to these presentations and it feels like a solid story and presentation, but there is nothing behind their rodeo when you sit back and dig deeper. A fucking mirage.

It's not the person who does excellent work that gets promoted or climb up the corporate ladder, but the person who knows how to sell their work, as sad as this is.

I think about this a lot. That's why when you're in this situation you have to recognize it and timebox.

The blog post could be better written though - it's super choppy.

The ebooks here on this website are great. I've been reading Tolstoy's Confessions from there and it's been a delight.

This would probably make a good blog post!
