I have been doing that for years form me and for others(managing people) so they do not procrastinate with the team like they will do if alone. I do that without telling them I am doing that. I will add some things I consider very important

Ohh, yeah!! The value they add is called "money". They give you it every single time(you work with them), not sometimes. If you expect them to babysitter you, mentor or friendship, from my point of view it is your expectations tha

If someone works for me 18 hours instead of 8 consistently I will fire him immediately. We do not want overworked and burn out slaves, thank you very much. Making more than 6 hours of real deep work every day is extremely challenging. Someo

It was good while it lasted. We will have to start migrating our software there into a more neutral platform. I don't like the consolidation in Software in which there are only 5-6 huge players. It means politics and private interest o

Concussions are accumulative and most of them are not macro evident. Lots of micro concussions could be worse than a single big one. So I do not think your data means what you believe it means. There is a reason they call NFL "Not For

I feel sorry for this man. He is a perfectionist. He believes everything has to be perfect or if not he does not do it. Because of that at the end of the day we have nothing. With a company you need to compromise. Probably you can no use gl

I have devoted my professional live to manufacturing automation. From my point of view, what Musk tries to do is very hard, but if someone could do it it is him. There are differences between the 1880 and the 2018, in particular AI(artifici

I believe it is JSON what is broken. I do not understand the article at all. We created our own GUI development using Dear IMGUI. It is probably the simplest GUI in the world. For text we use our own rasterizer library. But it comes at a pr

Vikings, who “were brilliant” despite popular perception of them as brutes. Well, you can be smart and brutal at the same time. Vikings had a brutal culture because they needed it for survival, as they did starve over some periods of the
