One nice thing about being employed is when you wake up, you know what you're going to do. You're going to work. The choice has been made.
The author shares ways he tries to stay motivated:
- Work on things that you find engaging
- Building routines into the day: Coffee and a walk with my partner, gym for an hour, journal and write, work block 1 (3 hours), lunch and chill, work block 2 (3 hours).
Do I manage to keep to this structure every day? No. But I try and mostly succeed. It's a framework. Sometimes I'm just not feeling it and allow myself a day off to read or play PlayStation. Without forcing myself to grind I never get too ground down.
- I'm intentional with my down-time
To preserve my focus I don't engage with any of these platforms until the end of the work day.
- I hang out with people in my field
- I write about it
When to choose a responsive website over Progressive Web Apps over native Apps
- Rester calme
- Ne pas être obnubilé par l’argent
- Savoir combiner plusieurs rôles
Cela fonctionne bien!
Quelle est la différence entre produit et side project
- Ne pas écouter ses utilisateurs (car le produit n'est pas fini)
- Se concentrer sur les fonctionnalités aux lieu de prototype technologiques, surtout lorsque cela est fait par des tech/devs.
- Un produit demande plusieurs corps de métier à l’œuvre. La vente est importante, ou des compétences légales ou financières.
Un side project c'est un projet qu'on réalise à côté, le soir, le week end. C'est un extra en dehors d'une autre activité. On le fait sans contraintes en mode best effort. Et si j'arrive à une conclusion désormais, c'est que dans beaucoup de sujets, le mode best effort c'est le meilleur moyen d'échouer.
Bref, pour caricaturer, il y a donc deux extrêmes qui ne marchent pas :
- le mode best effort, sans moyen, sans temps alloué
- la profusion de moyens et l'absence de contraintes
Et pour transformer un side project en produit, il faut viser la solution médiane : être à 100% et avoir des contraintes.
- You have multiple hats: separate them. Split up the design tasks from the implementation tasks.
- Know your environment, fit in your team
- Do hero mockups before implementation
- Use Design Briefs to keep track of raw notes and decisions.
- Design system helps to be more productive
- Research: focus on the 20%. 80% of what a good designer does should be usable.
We have a broad array of tools at our disposal. Use them! Only the right tool for the job.
Low fidelity can be better than no fidelity.
- It takes longer than you think
- Go all-in sooner (part-time is helpful to test an idea).
- Make direct sales (don't think about scaling).
- Choose a niche.
- Focus on product quality, and talk to your customers.
- Build a culture of execution.
- Don't underestimate deliverability and fraud.
- Meet customers and partners in person.
- Use workshops to create urgency.
- Move from a cost center to a revenue center.

The same thing will happen if you're running a startup, of course. If you do everything the way the average startup does it, you should expect average performance. The problem here is, average performance means that you'll go out of business. The survival rate for startups is way less than fifty percent. So if you're running a startup, you had better be doing something odd. If not, you're in trouble.
And an eloge of Lisp, or in the world of startups, the art of doing things differently.

Ultimately, the value of planning isn’t that you execute the plan perfectly, that you catch every detail beforehand, or that you predict the future; it’s that you enforce the self-discipline to think about the project in some depth before diving in and seeing what happens. […] The plan itself, however accurate it turns out, is less important than spending time on the act of planning. »
I totally agree. It is god damn hard to make accurate estimations about software development, because it is hard to know what will work or breaks and because the specifications are never complete until the full development
