If I may be so bold, the fallacy here is of time. Dare I say, you are already surrounded by friends, and not noticing it. It seems like you measure "friendship" not by the time spe…

There are two books on the issue by a guy called Steven Pressfield, "The War of Art" and "Do the Work". I've read the latter and it's good. He talks about how resistance strengthen…

Don't know about "ideal" but YC have a video where Michael Siebel talks about the dev cycle they had at Twitch. Before they applied it, he says, they wrote lots of redundant code a…

The label, like any label, is a tool, it's not who you are. It might be a good tool for you to better understand yourself (your struggles, your preferences), but still not be a gre…
