Most of my tweets here are written using an audio dictator, and that is a feature, not a bug. That also helps me keep my writing a little more unfiltered and also helps me write a lot more, because talking is easier than writing and editing.

Premature optimization is the root of all evil

3) A&B (& the exec team) should have understood that a lot of what seemed like “great operations & management” actually hurts early-stage bold initiatives like Zeus. Premature operational optimization can be a very bad thing for early-stage projects in startups & large companies.

Hypothesis:
It's easy to attribute your success to yourself, because the mind doesn't want to know the 10 other variables which played their part

[LifeAfterFI @LifeAfterFI]

This.

I'm not (billions) ultra-wealthy, but I'm incredibly grateful for being in the top something less than 1% of global wealth.

There's no way I'll give up all that to be poor at 25 because I'll definitely grow older again but I may not become wealthy again.

This recent @bchesky podcast with @patrick_oshag belongs to the hall of fame of tech podcast episodes. Very likely the deepest founder conversation after the Steve Jobs lost interview in the 90s.

Currently it has 90k views; it deserves 100X more views.

The intuition around Rust, Generics & zero cost abstractions

[amul.exe @amuldotexe]

What level of abstraction should you look at your code?

“The skill that matters now across all three roles—PM, designer, engineer—is business acumen: understanding the company’s equation and knowing what to build next.” ✅✅✅

Hypothesis:
Running multiple agents is for people who are alreay well verse with the codebase, for the rest of us it is a way to distract ourselves from high leverage tasks

Systems programming can't have a lot of boilerplate hence shipping fast reliably is difficult

[amul.exe @amuldotexe]

How building technical sophistication for a systems programming role is a lot about finding beauty in the boring mundane things, just like JEE prep

The moment you sell courses you land in the league of Ankur Warikoo - not good enough to do software development, can only sell courses - and the ROI on your time might not be as great as what it is on software

Hypothesis:
Most mediocre mid-career people do not talk *enough* about their problems, they are often just giving gyaan to younger folks (yes including me 😂)

[amul.exe @amuldotexe]

Hypothesis:
The industry is right in being biased against older folks

@KsHiTiJ86 My hunch is he's bluffing and diverting attention from the special ops the US may launch tonight or shortly to take some islands off Iran's coast in Strait of Hormuz. https://t.co/bLmv1m6hDI
