I never noticed, before, how much I have the inner drive of an entrepreneur. I don't lose interest. I don't run out of energy or ideas. I don't get easily distracted. I don't shy away from calculated risk. I plan everything out and update in real time. I think more clearly under pressure than when relaxed.
I just drive, drive, drive.
The drive 🔥🔥🔥
I've bored-out of numerous jobs, but I've never burned-out.
And they replace me with entire teams. 😂
I'd appreciate your thoughts on my art. Not MY ART, but art I have displayed in my abode. Is it sexist🤔/Tasteful?? On my profile🫱🏼🫲🏻.
there is no other purpose in life
pleasure is empty, beauty fades, excitement and obsessions get boring
all that matters is making the world better
Yeah. I just want to build things.
builder, it feels good to accomplish things & i cheer you on. Go Stella!
It does. It doesn't even seem to matter what I'm building. I just build whatever seems to be missing.
There's no pressure from the outside, except the frustration that something doesn't yet exist. But I know it could exist. Why doesn't somebody bring it into existence?!! Anyone?!! Nobody?!! Hello?!!
Fine, dammit, then I'll just have to BUILD IT MYSELF.
The simplest word I have used to describe myself is "a builder" whatever that may be!
i still think you could do a lot if you worked part time and got paid to keep the protocol spec in order and everyone's inputs catalogued
I'm doing a lot of paperwork for our own project. It's already a lot of work, parallel to development.
Someone should automate extracting specs from implementations.
Tests first, please! nostr:npub19mun7qwdyjf7qs3456u8kyxncjn5u2n7klpu4utgy68k4aenzj6synjnft
bob is gonna correct you and tell you that you have to sketch out an idea before you start implementing, just not painfully detailed
i almost always start new projects with a day or two work on a rough spec draft for protocol or whatever the thing is meant to do, in fact, we don't even get funding as grantees without such a document, so it is actually first
The tests vs spec discussion might be interesting then.
You could write the specs in Gherkin and then it's also a test.
Josua was working on that, already.
I you want, you can also make them your public docs. But that‘s tricky. See an example here: https://rspec.info/features/3-13/rspec-core/subject/one-liner-syntax/
Ah, that's actually quite clever. Forces you to include all relevant information and structure it well.
i really think that a basic wikimedia style wiki would help immensely though
what exactly is it about a stupid git repo that is so much better? it's not
wiki talk pages automatically relate to the spec they describe
pull requests are entirely dependent on human annotation and not intuitively linked together, and are very important because those spec changes tend to end up in the master branch long after it's been in use for a long time
