Back in 2004 during the first months of Facebook, I deleted my account. When I signed up again a few days later, everything was still there with profile picture and everything.
Although I agree with you, you are also making an assumption that certain managers are not hiring mistakes as well. Managers can be just as bad as employees. Especially in a big company, bad managers can hide behind smoke screens by shifting the blame on employees.
By far the best comment about programming. It really doesn't matter until you get into the millions of users. And the chances of that are slim. So focus on traction before scale.
In all, it took 6 days to complete. The application logic only took 2 days; the longest part was cascading the comments correctly with minimal passes. 2 days was setting up different environments like sbt revolver for html development, docker-compose sbt for integration testing, docker (whisk) unit testing. And 2 days was playing with GCE settings like setting up nameservers, handling naked domain, container-registry, kubernetes/ helm configs.
The features are bare minimum. You can submit posts preprend with "review:" if you want to others to review your manuscript, and "publish:" for showing new papers that have been published. For now post are listed by most recent and comments are ranked by points.
Peers’ Science is a platform for researcher to write fact-based reviews on publish articles. Having more people in the community review a published article will help catch mistakes that were overlooked in the peer review process. Articles which are based on solid research will be naturally robust to multiple reviews. This will help researchers get a more rounded opinion of an articles and avoid article purchasing cost which they might not need.
There are already 154 million article citations imported for researchers to start writing reviews. I am open to features requests from researchers; just email me at [email protected]. If you like what I am doing, please consider supporting this website. I am open to receiving GCP credits.
For me, at least, it is the extreme belief in oneself to accomplish something. Whether it becomes the next billion dollar startup is second. I am doing it because it is a challenge and not everyone can do it. Its much better than working for someone else and being assigned to do the same tasks over and over again.
The closest mentality to a founder I have seen are those of extreme sports. Especially sports that requires laborious hours and determination to get done. Like those that choose to climb Everest. Its tough and chances of injury is high. But you keep climbing because you believe you can make it to the top. You can't imagine going back down to the mundane life below.
I just bought Kubernetes in Action (MEAP) last week. I would highly recommend this book. It clearly spells out what it is and how docker containers are just units within a distributed system. Compared to trying to figure out how to properly do networking with Docker Compose, Kubernetes is clearly thought out and much easy to use and reason with. The final version comes out in August.
Opening applications isn't the pain point for me. Its resize and moving windows. i3wm completely solves this problem already. It would be great if someone ported it over to OSX.
