If true, this would be observed at least partially in software engineers as well, since what we deal with is kind of made up as well, but I don't see it.
What is the difference between first principles and higher order thinking?
Could you please explain what the difference is between first principles and higher order thinking? Based on the moon example, it seems you define it as a set of principles you can base your decisions on? E.g. to get…

Say someone wanted to transition from coding to engineering. What path would you have them take? What should they learn?
Does cron work (wake up the vm) there?
I assume it's cheaper to own the whole vertical slice at this scale, so you can control everything. Given that there's the financial incentive to do it, how would you prevent companies from growing vertically? If you…
Thanks a ton! While I don't have the experience to understand all of it, I appreciate your writing, like the sibling poster (and that you didn't delete your comment)! It reminds me of huge enterprise-y tools, which in…

Hi! Could you please tell me what use cases would nginx be better for, outside of serving static files? Moreover, having worked with Django a bit (I certainly don't have as much experience as you do), it seems to me…
