Fridays working from home: I told my daughter yesterday I needed to step in the next room to take a 5 minute phone call. What does she do? She runs upstairs and grabs a tambourine. She comes in and starts banging on it while I’m talking 😂 Muted myself while hysterically

Build with what you know. You don’t need to learn Svelte to build a simple landing page if you already know html, css, and javascript. You don’t need to learn typescript to build a backend if you already know python. Build and if you hit limitations with a framework down the

Did you know Paul Graham was inspired to create Y Combinator after meeting the founders of Reddit (college students at the time)? The two went to see Paul speak at Harvard and had coffee with him afterwards. A few weeks later they were planning to pitch their new startup idea
