Agree, except I’ll throw “ubiquitous” around like I’ve got 14 PhDs. So fun. We all have our favourite smart word. 😂

I was the very first customer on Buildkite hosted agents. Fast provisioning, with all the flexibility of BK pipelines, agents are beefy, builds fast, and cost me a fraction of Github actions. Glad to see this launched in collab with Namespace Labs

We let in a few thousands users this week. As much as we prepared and tested... our email service was still on the 'free' plan and borked preventing sign-ups 🤫😆. The adrenaline still pumps on launch day!

Being slow is often the most creative thing you can do.

50% of my work I'll get done very quickly, but the other 50% I'll procrastinate a lot. Is that just me? Happy to just sit on it and let it simmer. Sometimes for a long time.

It drives my team nuts. Everything is important.…

This was a fun chat. I’ve learned 3% of what is needed to build great products and companies and still practicing everyday. But fun to share the tidbits once in a while with anyone who wants to listen 😝

Just looked at my Cursor stats and I chat with my sidekick programmer 40+ times a day.

And this doesn't include all the follow-up banter and shit-posting in each conversation thread. Friends for life! 🤯

You’re not close to being a real company until you’ve sent at least 10 “we’ve updated our terms of use” emails to your customers.

Someone suggested to me that because talk is cheap, we should do more of it on our teams.

My response... there's a talk-tax, but most don't see it. It's free like co2 emissions.

I’ve retired from software… process. No scrum, dds, tdd, stand ups, devops, sre, micro services, retrospectives, pre and post mortems…

Instead, we just build and run software together.

We do use an issue tracker and a good readme.

Everyone posts an eod update to our group…
