Full-Stack/Senior Engineer with an emphasis on front-end with a multi-disciplinary background and have worked at small and large scale products and companies.
I'm an ex-Google engineer and interested in small/mid sized companies. Based in NY open to hybrid or remote and available to work immediately.
I'm an ex-Google engineer, Full-Stack Developer/SWE of 7+ yrs with a multi-disciplinary background in design & product management.
Interested in small/mid sized companies for IC, Engineering Manager, or Technical Project Management roles. I have extensive experience with coaching, mentorship, community building and public speaking.
There is a non-profit called Defy Ventures[1], that aims to rehabilitate prisoner personnel who are pre-release and equip them with skills and a technical/tactical overview for entrepreneurial-minded prisoners to help them adjust and better reintegrate back into society.
A tool for networked thought that has been an effective "Second Brain" for me.
I'm writing way more than ever through daily notes and the bi-directly linking of notes enables me to build smarter connections between notes and structure my thoughts in a way that helps me take more action and build stronger ideas over time.
I'm moving my blog to GatsbyJs coming from Wordpress and it's been great so far. Significant performance improvements, great plugin ecosystem and utilizes common front-end patterns with less context switching if you have front-end experience using JS/React as opposed to Python, or Go based alternatives.
I utilize a similar system to "reverse engineer the year".
Breaking down the major outcomes I want for the year into quarters which each having a specific focus and theme. At the end of each quarter I have a 90 day review to reflect on how I'm doing, where I'm heading and if there is any recalibration that needs to happen from changing priorities.
Each month I is essentially 3 "Acts" that play out the goals of that quarter and those in turn have weekly sprints.
With all that said the day is the most important of it all. What I choose to do each day reverberates across the year. This is where deep investment in intentionally building habits and focusing on systems over goals come into play.
Some side-effects I predict these changes will have:
- With reduced pre-sale tickets available, there will be increased pressure on main-sale tickets.
- With increased pressure on main-sale tickets, the percentage on first time attendees will skew downward even more, I believe around 30-30% of attendees on avg within the last couple years are first timers.
- There will be more pressure to form or join a theme camp, with more focus on DGS ticket sales, which are issues to theme camps in good standing, for the following year they attend.
- With increased demand for theme camps, the average size of theme camps will probably increase as they compete against each other for more interactivity in order to get placement, and have more revenue to out produce other camps.
- Open Camping(non-theme) will probably decrease in the amount of land available, as the Burning Man org tries to off set the demand.
- Open Camping is still very important to the core culture and principle of radical expression and radical self-reliance.
I predict that BM org will lobby the Nevada government for more population count past the 70,000, AND change the layout to enable a larger density of theme camps.
Agreed. Shared Resources covered by the cost of dues are directly related to the principles of Communal Effort (cooperation and collaboration on efficiently allocating and deploying resources as a collective effort) and Civic Responsibility through more environmental and public friendly use of resources.
The primary form of escape reading provided for me was an escape from poverty. Books were my ladder, and my hope. Having few mentors to tell me of a 'world' outside of the one I was living, books were able to transport me to foreign lands, they helped me understand myself, others around me and the world a little better.
Through good books, I could have access to mentors who would would never know me, but I knew them through their writing, and I acquired the tools to add value to the world.
Yes there are many mass marketed B.S books, that's why I tend to read older books that are battle tested and still relevant today(Lindy effect).
Yes, some books have more impact or less depending on what period in our lives we read them, our personal motivations or what prior knowledge and the context that makes the book relevant to us.
Of the hundreds of millions of books in the world, we may only get to read maybe a thousand or so if we try. Someone could invest years of their life into something that takes 8 hours or so to read. I think there's a high chance that their experience reveals to us something which we wouldn't have imagined and amazes us about the world we share.
It's similar to reverse engineering the year starting from the year end goals, although I personally think more in terms of building personal systems instead of setting annual goals.
The book "The One Thing" talks a bit more about that concept of breaking down the year into, quarters, then from quarters into months and then into weekly sprints and daily tasks.
Notion (https://notion.so) All in one workspace, combines, trello, airtable, evernote, and docs. Great embed support and awesome for small teams and personal use. It's a modern day commonplace book.
I do admit that around half of the circumstances where I was listening to audiobooks I was multitasking or in a situation or environment where a physical book would be more difficult, but some situations were focused listening as well and strong narrative content usually persisted better in memory.
Most frequent contexts were:
- Cooking
- Working out
- Airplane
- Subway Rides (If the train is too crowded to read I'll switch to listening to an audiobook)
- Walking Places
- Focused listening before bed
I've done some personal "A/B" testing on audio vs print for retention and found that I remember significantly less when listening to non-fiction content as opposed to reading it and the recall dropoff is very sharp.
I mainly use audiobooks now for mostly fiction and narrative strong content like history, biographies/memories, or communication around domains like sales, public speaking, marketing, and relationship books.
I found a lot more interesting things about being more strategical in using the right medium(print vs ebook vs audio) depending on the nature of the content I'm consuming as well as my energy levels[1].
