уровень внутренней гомофобии: убрал из описания инсты радужный флаг чтобы увеличить конверсию в секс-дейт из пьюрных матчей

девочка: кажется я влюбилась 👉👈
женщина: так трахнешь? 🥺

(этого не было)

пошёл вчера на сходку выпускников недельного интенсива пластического театра гоголь-скул (27 девушек на 3 парня на потоке). ожидание: выйду за бабл и початюсь с гуманитарными чиками. реальность: с инженеркой обсуждали харасмент в сириусе и гендерные квоты в классах евы

го в бравлик? а может быть лучше 127 тысяч раздач в бридж

чтобы отпуск помог, нужно сначала разобраться с причинами которые привели к отпуску

честно говоря мне очень нравится когда еда достаётся мне бесплатно. если бы фриганство не было времязатратным я бы наверно фриганил

готов представить что если у меня кончатся деньги на еду и останутся только на аренду, то я буду просить всех подписчиков донатить мне кускус, фунчозу, консервы, помидорки, яблоки и бананы

блин реально у меня страх писать челикам звать потрахаться тк боюсь что когда они приедут (а это через полдня/день) мне уже будет совсем не до них и я буду стрессовать что занят не делом а СоЦиАлИзаЦией

can we do a zero-night stand plz?

мне стрёмно ходить между полок книг в библиотеке. раньше (десять лет назад) мне всё хотелось взять и прочитать. теперь у меня выученная беспомощность от того, что почти всё это никак не применимо в жизни

— какие у тебя языки любви?
— дрочить на фотки тех кому лень написать

короче теперь я всегда буду пить кофе на дейтах чтобы эйфория от кофе выстраивала нейроны так будто я влюбился

We agreed to this pilot without negotiating neither salary nor equity. I want to show my value first and negotiate this stuff later on - in hope that it will rise the offer.

Yesterday we interviewed two junior candidates. Hopefully it’ll speed up the development process. Honestly, I’m lazy to code all things on my own - it’s just a no-grow. I want to take the role nobody else takes - the Forward Deployed Engineer role - the guy that is constantly communicating with users and translates their needs into product vision and programming tasks.

Our CTO has a different look on things - more waterfallish, long release cycle. He’s the guy who made the first versions of all our services. It probably took him some time to do that. It’s also interesting to know how maintainable and expandable the server-side will be in the end. I haven’t yet seen our PHP back-end, but it sometimes behaves strangely - so I expect anything.

Two juniors started performing surprisingly well and fast. I nearly have a feeling that now I'll be busy all the time just lying them the path with tasks. Which probably will turn me into a product thinker.

I somehow should track the progress of both juniors to value them by next Tuesday to make an offer with a reasonable salary. I'm lucky to have both at the same time, still it's gonna be hard to compare their skill and productivity.

The ultimate goal of life is to maximize oneself’s net present luck. Which in my case with Asap breaks down to maximize my career growth (skills + self-brand) and maximize my net present earnings. The latter turns into salary and option. Option turns into its percentage of the total valuation and the valuation of the company itself.

For now let’s only concentrate on the very last component. How can I grow the company’s valuation more efficiently? Asap raised $150k kinda two months ago. It looks like I’m the only guy who’s going to hire tech team members. Salary expenses is the biggest term on the cost breakdown during the seed round (say, 90%). If I knew how much free money we have left to have the runway of 12 months, my goal is to hire the right guys to implement our hypotheses in the code asap.

I wonder if I can finally not write any more code myself.

I’m slacking a little bit and searching for a work-life balance for the weekend. Looks like <> works the entire weekend because he may have a lack of many other hobbies - we’ll figure that out.

PHP wasn’t the choice of <>, there was some earlier guy that wrote the initial version of the back-end and then left the team. <> also says that we have a medium-size codebase - it can’t be rewritten overnight, but it’s also not that huge. So we can consider rewriting it in some more reasonable framework - holding the database the same. I wonder what kind of ORM lies in there.

Asap is a cool lifestyle - awesome and diverse - and we share a lot of dishes to enjoy the taste we can discover in the restaurants that we signed up for partnership. We’re also working in the most NYCish district in Moscow - it gives a sane dosage of dopamine at night on my way from the last cafe to the subway station.

It also allows me not to code. I enjoy learning architectural patterns and teaching guys software practices but I’m not passionate about digging into current quirks, chasing for a typo and spending life in the debugger. It distracts me from thinking about competition and customer love.

This week is gonna be our rollout to many cafes - or at least the next week for sure. Let’s see how it goes.

We had a long call with founders and agreed that we need to hire one more back-end guy (PHP Laravel 4.2) to match the capacity of the front-end. <> had big concerns that “our code may leak to some third party that may benefit from it eg. by rapidly launching a clone”. His idea is that our back-end consolidates the two-year knowledge obtained by iterations of what are the exact “parameters” under which the back-end with this particular product requirements starts being valid. Finally we managed to lower his concerns by explaining that business is not just “back-end” and NDA means quite a lot in the US, where we’re trying to establish a business eventually.

Yesterday I also started coding the order logic and I felt like I should spend some time deeply understanding React/Redux concepts to make better architectural decisions. It’s hard to find the time slot for reading manuals, books and docs, though.
