Mo Rajabi on X: "remote is hard. working in office is easier. but all our team wasn't in one room 2/3 of the day. so we're always at least somewhat remote, and slow. so built the grid – a simple way to talk/pair on screens quickly by clicking on teammates, without calling or meeting.

The Grid is a real-time collaboration tool specifically designed for distributed teams and remote work.

Big tech interviews are so much overkill compared to the job. Engineers spend weeks on leetcode only to be asked to create a button in a UI. Product managers memorize product sense frameworks only to schedule meetings and ask lawyers if it’s OK to ship a feature (it’s always no).— Dare Obasanjo (@Carnage4Life) February 16, 2023

Companies find it incredibly hard to reliably staff positions with hard-working generalists who operate autonomously and have high risk tolerances. This is not the modal employee, including at places which are justifiably proud of the skill/diligence/etc of their employees.
Startups are (by necessity) filled with generalists; big companies are filled with specialists. People underestimate how effective a generalist can be at things which are done by specialists. People underestimate how deep specialties can run. These are simultaneously true.
The hardest problem in B2C is distribution. The hardest problem in B2B is sales.
Your idea is not valuable, at all. All value is in the execution.
nobody serious will engage in contract review over an idea, and this will mark you as clueless.

Why I don't use Scrum to manage my Remote Teams?TL;DR: It adds at least 8 hours of meetings per Sprint. That's 2 full days of lost productivity, per team member, per month!This is what I do instead 👇— Sergio Pereira 🚀 (@SergioRocks) October 5, 2022

The best tech companies drive strategy through product. This is why founders and CEOs tend to be product leaders, and product / design / engineering is more important than ops / marketing / finance.

I’ve tweeted about this before, but when we made the original iPhone, we didn’t have product managers. We had directly responsible individuals (DRIs). Each important piece of work had a single person charged with seeing to it that the work got done. 1/— Ken Kocienda (@kocienda) August 28, 2022
