I love this! Semi-related, I was just fiddling with a Firefox extension this morning to flip Python 2 documentation results with those of Python 3 (usually also in the results, but lower on the page)
I began this during the covid-19 pandemic, mainly as a means of keeping myself sane.
It's targeted towards engineering managers, currently writing out my "Foundational" stuff -- things I live by as an engineering manager, the blend of people / process, and how to connect those in humane ways, while also taking care of yourself
As you can tell, I don't have my pitch down yet ;) It's still early days (only three articles, with intention to get one out every ~9 days), but it's been nice to get thoughts on paper
Yup, I dig this and I hope we see more of this as we enter another phase of mobile devices.
My iPhone 11, although a great phone, is unnecessary for me. I love its camera (for photos/FaceTime), everything else is superfluous. I am also terrified with dropping it.
G Adventures | Engineering Manager | Boston, MA | Full-time | On-site, remote friendly (Relocation possible)
G Adventures has been a world leader and innovator in sustainable adventure travel since 1990. We're a strong believer that tourism can be used to distribute wealth, and that's represented in how we operate as a company.
We're looking for an engineering manager to help grow our Product Systems team. This team focuses on building the systems which help our product teams build out the Itineraries, components, budgets, and costs associated with G Adventures tours. You'll drive a full stack team working in React and Python/Django.
We recently on-boarded two additional companies onto our systems as well, expanding our customer base (a challenge, but exciting!).
If you are in a role where you could be involved in the decision making of the product(s) you work on, getting involved in that [initially informally] is definitely the best way.
Be knowledgeable about metrics/kpis (and help create them if they don't exist), help your teammates grow through coaching, and work your way to be involved in those product discussions.
If you're not in such a position, try looking for a new job. So many companies need product managers and if you come clear on your ambitions, it seems to be easy to get past that initial wall.
Learning what's new and shiny is great, but try to spend time this year building something, seeing it live in the wild, fixing and debugging it, nurturing it. Build on your critical thinking.
The lack of edibles for the initial launch is a big blocker for casual adoption IMO.
As per the visuals, cannabis use has not grown dramatically since legalization. Oils and raw bud are simply not as accessible as a bar of chocolate.
I imagine that won't cause a significant bump either, but at the least, it opens up the market to the casual user -- which simply has not happened yet in Canada.
