Non-intrusive product placement. Kind of like cigarettes.

It's not. Actually it's almost worse because it tends to hide issues even deeper. This practice is very similar to when teachers would reward students for good behavior on days the…

> I have had to deserialize into map[string]interface{} to handle ambiguous situations at runtime a lot. Something I worry about is if I'm getting too jaded. You really think thing…

private groups work best for this, lets not get ahead of ourselves and try to make some sort of jira bounty ticket tracker for some indie diy crowd if requirements were a solved pr…

This is a stretch. How does scheduling a meeting turn into an emotional battle?

You're whole premise is wrong, a similar mistake we often make as programmers is trying to optimize without profiling. You can build homebrew but still be rejected at Google.

I think relying on traditional public education is the reason for this impedence mismatch. My city offers free tap water at a spot accessible to everyone (i.e. picnic water fountai…

How did you deliver the guides? Confluence doc + screenshots? What worked? Also, what is the category/term called for those type of pain points? It's like those typical enterprise-…

You have to leave HN for a little. It is likely that HN has been influencing you into associating writing/coding/building with failure. Try to work on things without the idea of "S…

I don't think the author has to divide writing good (quality) with being slow (speed), and writing fast with being bad. I firmly believe that the goals is aligned on both sides. Cl…

Do you have an email/discord? Would like to connect with you on a few things.

I found meds to have enhancing effects on my code. Everything I have earned is because of it. My best guess is you are still in the phase of titration and finding the correct type …

false dichotomy

> Once you start them it's nearly impossible to go back This is ok. Having a dependence on a drug is not a bad thing and should not be considered as such.

Adderall (IR 20mg bid).

I would not be so quick to throw away "drugs" as they have the strongest efficacy compared to any method shared here. Anecdotally, I used to follow a lot of these methods described…

Has that been an issue you have come across? Granted, it felt like 99% of companies did not let me through the door, but I was under the assumption that after actually having indus…

Is there a reason why you decided to go back? I am on a similar path (dropped out and landed SWE @ big bank) and still relatively early in my career (just turned 21).
