"2,000 lines of code isn’t just the upper limit for a novice; it encompasses a fundamentally, philosophically different program from 20,000 lines, which is different from 200,000, which is different from 2,000,000. Someone who’s worked on several 20,000-line programs isn’t necessarily equipped to work on a 200,000-line program. And in my experience, the opposite is true as well; the programming methodology just isn’t transferrable. A programmer who insists on building go-to-market software at a startup the same way they built hyperscale apps for millions of concurrent users at Meta is destined to fail." #programming #coding #startups

My secret hack to "grabbing a coffee chat" when I've got 2 kids under 2 years old in tow is... I find interesting people who also have kids and invite them, their partner, and their kid(s) to family activities we can all do together. e.g. spend a couple hours at a kids' indoor playground. Adults get to chat (I mean, at 50% focus I'll take it!), AND the little kids get to enjoy. As an entrepreneur, I have to get creative, be inclusive, and be different than the norm. I'm cracking the code in building a company with kids I tell ya. If you have small kiddos and you're running a business in Toronto, I'm so interested in saying hi to learn how you do what you do. 👋 _____ Hi, I'm Weiting, Co-Founder and CEO of Openroom HQ. And, mom of 2 kids under 2 🐣🐣. I write about building Openroom in public with our community of fans - one that they helped us grow to 30K/monthly visitors, purely with their word of mouth.

Think developers are just screen-staring, code-churning zombies? Think again! Sure, we love our screens, but there's more to us than just pixels and keyboards. We're regular attendees at tech conferences, not just for the free swag, but for the electrifying energy and the latest buzz in tech. Meetups? Absolutely! That's where the magic of networking mixes with the joy of geeking out over new technologies. And let's not forget the hackathons. It's like our version of the Olympics, minus the physical exertion. Brainpower? Check. Team spirit? Double check. We also step out for coffee – yes, real coffee, in real coffee shops, with real people. And when the laptops shut down, some of us might even be found doing the unthinkable – enjoying the great outdoors! So, next time you picture a developer, remember – we're more than just our coding caves; we're dynamic, community-loving, coffee-sipping tech enthusiasts #techenthusiasts #codinglife #hackathonheroes #geekculture #networkingnerds #coffeecoders #outdoordevelopers #techcommunitylove

From Doom Loop to Boom Loop You'll find several past posts on my site about the folly of writing off San Francisco and underestimating the brilliant minds that gave us the tools to work from home during the pandemic in the first place. Naysayers are already hedging their doom-loop rhetoric as our region continues to attract an enormous critical mass of artificial intelligence horsepower, which will lead to another profound shift in how we live, work, and play. In our new, post pandemic world, San Francisco's downtown is rapidly restructuring, re-inventing, and recapitalizing itself. Granted, there will be some painful adjustments for the next couple years, and our massive vacancy rate will take a while to correct. Nevertheless, I remember when Google, Facebook, Apple and Amazon were small startups with handfuls of employees, and the platform this post resides on had not been hatched. As this decade matures, San Francisco will continue to lead the the way forward in providing unimaginable leaps in productivity and quality of life. If any City is capable of inventing solutions to address homelessness, poverty, and a host of other issues afflicting the human condition, it's San Francisco. We're just getting started. Still not convinced? Watch this, for a recap on what we've already done. Then get ready for the next boom. https://lnkd.in/dK69xNjv
