  • Depends on the docs but if they’re written well you’re best served by reading them in full. Rftm before looking at best practices and tips.

    Problem is a lot of people don’t understand how to read a doc. There’s a terminology, phraseology, syntax. I have so many instances of people who say they didn’t see the answer in the docs and then you look and it’s right there. But the human mind tends to discard info it doesn’t understand how to process.

    If you think you know how the Internet works but haven’t read the RFCs you might not know as much as you think you do. Read pretty much every one on ipv6 because the second hand resources are absolutely garbage.















  • Thankfully in my youth I was given the space to be my true self, so now that I have a job/wife/kids with a ton of responsibility and have to “pause” some of my self, I don’t mind it was I was really quite self centered and self absorbed for the first 30 years of my life. I balanced school with going out or doing my hobbies.

    My true self now is a passion for my family and my job, and I know that long term my kid will become distant and I wont always work so for the moment I am happy to be “paused” and still carve out some time for myself 3-4 hours a week to enjoy my hobbies by myself. But the real trick is integration, my son knows that the real me is someone who wants to do a lot of activities with him all the time, and so I take the time to participate in his hobbies, and naturally he is very interested in learning mine or watching me do mine.





  • Specifically, the Board and thus the CEO must maximize company VALUE not profit.

    There are other ways to increase company value that do not necessarily result in Q/Q / Y/Y profit increases.

    But in the 1970s you get a guy named Milton Friedman who comes along with the concept of shareholder value in a 1970 essay for The New York Times, entitled “A Friedman Doctrine: The Social Responsibility of Business Is to Increase Its Profits”.[5] In it, he argued that a company has no social responsibility to the public or society; its only responsibility is to its shareholders.

    So there’s been a lot of argument against it since esp as of late, but the economic hegemony still adheres to Friedman’s economic principles.
