People are complaining about the permissions Zuck is asking for in the Threads app, but it's the same permissions they gave when downloaded and signed up in Instagram (which they use to sign in Threads)

Left column - threads, right column - instagram

Top apps by cringe consumption rate

I am probably not addicted to Twitter as I never faced the limited of tweets watched

Will your life be easier if you'll have your personal recruitment assistant?

No more scrolling through innumerable sets of job boards
No more white noise
No more filling the applications

According to the stock market, the tech industry is now on the post-pandemic level and it's growing continuously for the first time since layoffs and all those banking collapses

Companies are hiring, and new technologies adoption level is at its highest!

The 80-20 rule is tricky

Influencers on the internet make a cult out of it - you only need to put 20% of the effort to get 80% of the outcome

Put 100% of an effort at least once or stagnate in mediocrity?

Nobody wants to live in a reasonably ok house or use acceptable software

The thing I love about US-based startups is that companies are open to sharing their equity with their employees

It is uncommon for anywhere outside of the US, but it seems to be the most effective way to build strong & trustworthy relationships with the development team

[Nick Vedkal @NVedkal]

Start learning new tech

Build with it

Get better understanding while building

Get back to the beginning to clean the trash you left for future

Repeat

Over the hundreds of interviews, the one thing I've learned is that even very good devs can find it hard to crack the interview if it's boring & uncomfy

[Nick Vedkal @NVedkal]

QA definitely matters

One day live, one day with crashes in production
