Are these live events? I think they are from what I can tell on the site. I'd try to make that more clear. I think a lot of teams would be really interested in this. You can only play so many games of Among Us as a team before it gets

We have daily coffee chat optional sessions right after standup. So far it’s been working pretty great. Most days we have at least 4 or 5 folks stay. We talk about anything (but try not to talk about work) We also occasionally play Among Us

Seems to be a lot of interest in this space. I’m trying to combine the “rote-ness” of anki with learning by doing. In Deliberate Python[1] I’m combining spaced repetition lessons with small exercises that encourage you to really focus and g

This is probably one of the best investments most people can make. Think about it. If you become a more effective learner it can have a huge compounding effect. This course is one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing it!

I'm very surprised none of the videos on the serenade landing page have audio. I would love to see/hear what it's like. I'd suspect adding audio to those videos would be a win on conversions.

Do a lot of visual artists have programming skills these days? Or I guess a better question is, do artists who have programming skills get higher pay, attention,etc from employers in this field? I guess I’m curious to the state of the field

Wish there were pictures easily found on the main landing page of the game. I tried to try it out but didn’t get admitted into a room. There’s only text in the rules, so it’s hard for me to know what type of game this is. I think investing

I like that the (potential) value prop for an individual user increases as more people join the platform. Seems like a pretty novel idea for the whole "flywheel" concept.

I had to read that headline about 10 times before I kind of understood what it was saying. Reading the article helped though. Tire costs probably aren’t thought of because all cars need tires and consumers are used to paying for them.

That is not pitiful. I think you should recalibrate to the average. Most new grads have a negative net worth. You are far ahead of the curve and it’s good you are thinking about wealth building, but it’s very dismissive to say 120k net wort
