1/ The first 18 months of a startup:

After starting my 2nd company in 2019, I decided I would write down useful lessons I learned or re-learned along the way. Some were hard-earned & others required steady focus. A thread that I hope may help other founders starting out 👇

DRY2 – Don't repeat yourself twice, but feel free to repeat yourself once.

Commonalities between code can be accidental. Similar code can evolve in different ways. Unintentional effects of code changes increase sharply when a 2nd code path depends on it.

Your body contains 37 trillion cells. Grab a random cell from a random mammal: there's a 36% chance that it's from a human, 60% chance that it belongs to livestock (cows++) and a 4% chance it comes from any wild mammal (whales, giraffe, lion, sand cat++). https://t.co/Z56XkxN34O

If Not A Bug, or INAB – a suggested acronym for a common code mistake:

if (not a bug) { do the things; }

Debugging this is painful and behavior is confusing.
Instead: break fast, break often, fix bugs.
