    Put up or shut up: SaaS domination

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Decent set of commits today before calling it. One of the big mistakes I made was premature optimization. Originally, I had set up several very spaghetti-like structures in my code that would make it easy to modify "sometime in the future" without getting all of the moving parts working...

    What's your Lambo? What's your WHY or PURPOSE?

    Still Think That "STEM Degree" is a Ticket to a Nice Job?

    MINDSET 
    STEM has paid very well for me, but it's required a lot of constant studying and getting to the root of issues. A lot of engineers I know are unwilling to explore beyond their narrow area of focus and thus get blindsided by issues that should be obvious. This is the norm. I've moved across the...

    Engineer planning an escape from golden handcuffs with SAAS

    SAAS / APPS INTRO 
    Hello everyone, This post is a long time coming. I've been building a product on the side, but not with the aggressiveness and speed that I should be. That changed after reading 3 books: Unscripted (finished yesterday) Fastlane (read earlier this year from library, just bought for kindle...
