Great list of equipment and their roles in production!



No. Knock on wood.


Both refactoring and GC.


That number's not correct.


What is the correct number?


"Fake it 'til you make it" is more about pretending to have confidence before you really have it and less about falsifying your past in a way that's easy for someone to fact check.

Correct. I'm familiar with the trajectory of the "Fake it 'till you make it" meme, but I have never understood it to be a PC synonym for fraud, or passing yourself off as something that you are not (including missing payroll and falsifying investor interest or mundane things like your C.V.)

You don't create software, do you?


For app development, the hard part has already been done through well-written lib, and the developers mainly write some trivial business logic to put these components together.


Nope, you definitely do not create software.


You do not think of this way because you do not write modular code. How hard to use a react component in a application?


When instagram is made there was no library of making actual logic. You should not rely on libraries if you want to make instagram you should rely on people who can make that kind of libraries

Yeah, it's in this article too, higher resolution as well if you want to take a look.


Ah. Duh. I read the original blog post last night and thought it was just the same thing reposted on another site. I was surprised the animation wasn't included in the original post.


You're a crazy motherfucker, but variety is the spice of life. Props for that. I'm going to stick with heat for my showers and leave cold for when I'm skiing.
