There should be a loop between the code and the documentation. Documenting the code after it is written will reveal inconsistencies in the code. These future bugs should be fixed if there is time. Ideally the documentation would be written first and serve as a specification for the code.

Play with wheels. Do not reinvent the wheel but do understand the wheel. Do compare wheels. Learn the material characteristics of wheels. Drive things on wheels. For sure customize your wheels! Drop it down, flashing hubcaps; all that. “Do not reinvent the wheel” does not mean do not have fun with wheels

Tooling needs to be a first epoch consideration. You don’t have to have conviction about your product direction but you have to have conviction in your tooling

Sometimes I wonder what % of ChatGPT is actually read. I know for me it gets to my answer quick but drones on about nonsense while I compose my follow-up question

My work brings me joy. It makes me want to sing. I work until I want to sing and then I stop working to sing. If one says, “stop that singing and go back to work” I will no longer work until I want to sing
