Signing the 900 lb. Gorilla, eh? We did too. We were a $250k ARR legacy app when we were introduced to our 900 lb. Gorilla. A Fortune 10 Financial Services company. We signed them (for +$1M/yr, 5 yr min) and then lived…
Halfway between 'golfing' and 'drinking' is 'bowling'. Genius!
I just retired after a 28 year career in mortgage technology. Here is my take: First, modern mortgage origination is a scale business based upon quantitative processes that depend upon collecting data of very poor…
Electric RVs with level 5 self driving. Everyone talks about Teslas for self driving, but for my self driving car, I want an RV with a shower, a desk, a full kitchen, a queen sized bed and a 50" flat panel. Commuting…
Keep this in mind: In a large organization, NO SINGLE PERSON makes a decision. It's THE PROCESS that makes the decision. And THE PROCESS takes time. One of the greatest skills you can learn at a large organization is…
From a traditional Dev perspective, blockchain programming can seem really weird. No decimals, no patches or point upgrades to deployed smart contracts (for the most part anyway), constructor event only gets called once…
The thing you need to adjust to is this unfortunate truth: At large companies, NO ONE makes decisions anymore. It's the PROCESS that makes the decisions. And the Process takes a lot more time than you are accustomed to.…

read "Snow Crash" by Neal Stephenson. In the near future, Home Owners Associations in the US (assisted by AI managers and horrifically powerful robotic armed guards) form their own "countries", with their own legal…
The dual slit experiment. Run the experiment with no one watching it, it produces result A. Run it again and watch it, it produces result B. Watching the experiment changes the result. WTF????
Rule of Thumb #1 : The closer you are to affecting the marginal profitability of the company, the more you make. e.g. Updating actuarial tables on a 20 yr old insurance system = low pay. Using ML/AI to re-build the…

Yes, three. One was a total failure. One went public a few years after i left and the last one was a private sale by me to a Fortune 500 company. I'm not saying my rule of thumb is for everyone, but 900 hours is about…
You're probably not falling out of love with coding. You're falling out of love with having to unremember a lot of the things you've learned and replace them with new, unfamiliar things that many times, contradict what…
