as software gets commoditized…

source

• commoditization of software is 100% real and not just a meme

• in the past months I’ve brought the 3 pieces of software we were spending the most money on in-house by vibe coding solutions that now costs close to zero dollars to run

• some software is certainly too complex but a ton of it is just glorified CRUD wrappers

building the biggest thing you can

source

• are you working on the biggest thing you possibly can?

• if someone watched you for a week, would they think you’re serious about your goals?

transparency and accountability

source

• very useful question to ask: how can we make our systems more transparent and accountable?

A player myth

source

• this is one of these classic pieces of advice that sounds insightful until you try to do anything with it

• imo there is no such thing as A players, B players, or whatever

• everyone can be an A player or B player or C player depending on the environment you put them in

• this is maybe most obvious if you look at sports teams

• players that looked like unstoppable worldbeaters when put into a new team that doesn’t play to their strength
