As somebody who grew up on an off grid ranch in Idaho, farming and hunting and living off the land, I feel grateful and blessed to the point of tears every time I think about how I get to sit on my ass and solve puzzles all day.
Like how the fuck did I get this lucky.
A lot of people have been replying indignantly with, "but it's fun!" Yes, it's fun. That's the problem. Fun is a good reason for choosing toys, not production software you will have to support for the next decade.
In conclusion, never write a database. 🌈💕 (unless you have to).
The tragedy of Europe is every restaurant with an outdoor patio is the exclusive domain of smokers.
There is a lot to love about this place, but the smoking everywhere is a turd in the punchbowl.
I have invested in 170 companies.
The ones that win, have the fastest feedback loops.
They try lots, they fail fast, they learn faster.
The ones that lose, have long feedback loops. It takes months to know if something worked.
The faster you fail, the quicker you learn.
To all the #MindMapping fans, #TaskManagement pros and documentation experts – we wish you a wonderful holiday season full of festive cheer ☃️
Thank you for choosing #Meister! 😁

my fellow dudes, here’s one weird trick I’ve learned that has led to faster career growth, better relationships, stronger communities, and much, much more
when you are meeting new people:
❌ make assumptions & state them authoritatively
✅ ask questions & listen before speaking
i don't fucking care if you don't "want to do ops" or not. because "ops" doesn't mean "shitwork", you shithead, it's the constellation of practices, skills, instincts, and expertise it takes to build quality systems and deliver value to users.
