I feel the same way. There’s a shift that happens at around 80 people where not everyone rows in the same direction. Incentives become different because not everyone “lives and die…

I see so this may be semantics then as the article agrees with intuitive decision making. I think I understand where we’re saying the same things. I will consider replacing my term…

Respectfully, I don't think you took away the correct implications. Specifically in the implications section of [1]: "The key to effective intuitive decision making, though, is to …

I don't want to argue the basis of system 1/system 2 as described in [1], because the point I'm taking away is more about whether they interoperate at times of decision making. The…

I couldn't agree more. I think our entire tech interview system exists to find people who fit the role you defined above. I wrote a post on this describing my thoughts [1]. What's …

Reminds me a lot of OSX photo albums. Pretty cool idea! Curious about memory and performance constraints for larger gifs as presumably all frames must be cached.

I don't believe DNS supports regex and in fact a comment thread from 2010 on OpenDNS specifically states they do not support it [1]. A very simple solution for this is a load balan…
