> Arek held two roles at the startup. He was both CEO and CTO, managing the entire company and its technology stack. Developers and marketing felt ignored. Their ideas were not considered, and the CEO made decisions without consulting them. In addition, they were often wrong, which caused more and more anger. People on the team did not know where these decisions were coming from and felt that their project, which they had worked on together in the beginning, was starting to resemble a dictatorship.

Sounds like my company :]

Overall, a very interesting article.

Don't you think there's a war going on in Europe right now and it's affecting a lot of industries?
Very interesting point of view
What do you mean by USA not experiencing a recession or stagnation? What about recent collapse of the stock market, which was experience due to predictions coming from the U.S. - inflation and recession exactly?

As for the book - it's hard for me to say, but I'm not convinced that the author is trying to sell us anything. Especially since, as you can see, the website doesn't have it yet. But if you switch to the Polish version (because the author is from that country, I think) you can see that the book is published for free and you can optionally donate money to some organization (I think taking care Bleeding Disorders).

Thank you. I will look at them!

I work for a Swedish-Polish-Estonian (yeah I know!) startup. Soda was already recommended to me by a Polish friend. I have written to a few of them, but I would feel more confident with a recommendation.

I have not yet contacted with the ones you recommended. I will try them. Thank you!

However, if anyone else could recommend someone worthy of attention, I would be grateful.

First blockchain, now AI. Electricity consumption is a very glaring problem. I recently read that the ozone hole is getting bigger again. I guess unfortunately technology is not going in the right direction.

Ask HN: Please recommend a good custom software development company from Poland

Do you have any software development company from Poland or Estonia that you can recommend to me for cooperation? I'm looking for someone to whom I can outsource either entirely product development or, as a last, do a team extension.Currently, we have a device prototype for the deaf and mute, and a mobile application with ready-made API interfaces. We want to create a dedicated web application...
