I’m skeptical about this data, I think a lot of meetings weren’t getting scheduled in Teams before and just held locally in the office with verbal agreement

The biggest cause of Swedes not living to 120 is that our record keeping has been immaculate since the 1600s.
We were a country with a small population but big military ambitions, and so the kings needed to know exactly how many men they could take from each county.

You make a very good point, traditional corporate structures often don’t include enough trust to allow for this kind of work
And it’s hard for managers to know who’s taking the long way to a 10x solution, who simply sucks at time management, and who just isn’t performing

I also got bit by this one, back when I was a student.
I can't trust a company with such a user-hostile pricing model. And no, I'm not going to read the fine print on a software subscription, I have better things to do - I'll just never buy from Adobe again.

I was stunned when I saw the valuations of some of these OpenAI wrappers.
"It's got no moat" - there's no capital expenditure to recoup, as most of these apps could be built in a few weeks.
It's all profit as long as you can get the unit economics to work.

May 2nd, I saw a tweet asking for this product. I figured I'd build it.
Now, May 8th, it's ready.
This is the power of small bets. 80% of the code is copy-paste from my other projects.
Now, the hard part: distribution. Any tips?

I wrote a Twitter clone in Java and HSQLDB when I was 18.
Eye opener.
It’s just a thin GUI over a database.
The hard part is scaling and network effects, both of which don’t apply to 99% of the B2B software SWEs write.

It’s not an opportunity because there’s nothing preventing American software companies from dominating the European market.

Våtrum är dyrare att bygga, och i köket finns det redan tillgång till vatten.
Så genom att ha den i köket sparar man vad det kostar att bygga en kvadratmeter våtrum.

Two reasons:
A bad hire often means negative productivity for the entire team.
And juniors often job hop in a year or two, right around when they are starting to really contribute.
So companies try to hire only the best, which makes it hard for 75% and easy for 25%.
