Re:Getting Wealthy vs. Staying Wealthy on Monday January 16, 2023 @12:27PM (#34403026)
The best part for me is this:

A barbelled personality – optimistic about the future, but paranoid about what will prevent you from getting to the future – is vital.

Optimism is usually defined as a belief that things will go well. But that’s incomplete. Sensible optimism is a belief that the odds are in your favor, and over time things will balance out to a good outcome even if what happens in between is filled with misery. And in fact you know it will be filled with misery. You can be optimistic that the long-term growth trajectory is up and to the right, but equally sure that the road between now and then is filled with landmines, and always will be. Those two things are not mutually exclusive

Best insight

""C++ is a fast language" is a ridiculous statement. It is not easy to write fast code in C++ and you need years of expertise to write code without memory issues."

Re:Using Rust at a Startup: A Cautionary Tale on Tuesday November 22, 2022 @08:58PM (#33714169)
"Rust has made the decision that safety is more important than developer productivity. This is the right tradeoff to make in many situations — like building code in an OS kernel, or for memory-constrained embedded systems — but I don’t think it’s the right tradeoff in all cases, especially not in startups where velocity is crucial"

Great point

"What’s transformative about this work is not just that it saves time and money while also delivering quality" - that's my take for AI for the following years to come. Tools that will increase productivity not replace you.
