it sounds great, but I didn't mention why I'm leaving. Got laid off because the company is stagnating, been doing lay-offs since before the quarantine. Turns out a kick-ass culture is safer for job security since the…
I'm just leaving a company which has been experiencing stagnated growth for a couple of years and everyone I talk to says that the 100% remote strategy has played a role. My company just couldn't figure out how to get…
Have you written about this? Sounds like an entertaining story.
you could increase train frequency during rush hour. One every 5 minute between 7-9am and 4-6pm.
Yeah, its just small drama compared to the real damage Google has caused. Its sort of tone deaf to include that in why Google is unethical. The SV bubble.

The subtle shaming and holier-than-thou policing, like in your comment, is more harmful and toxic than the trolling. It’s what is fueling the polarization IMO. Look now I’m doing it, it’s contagious.
I was going to build a mobile web app but I don’t like the way iOS handles button clicks on the bottom of the screen. The first click is ignored and it slides up your bottom menu bar, then you can click the button. You…

One of the reasons why I think 100% distributed, remote team might not be the best. Which is why a middle ground where you work remote but within 1 hour of a “company hub” so you get to see you team a few times a month.…
