“The risk to VCs isn’t that their role disappears. It’s that once this happens, the muscle memory for how to structure funds and termsheets immediately goes out of date. VCs should spend time thinking about how they’re going to prepare for this new world” alexdanco.com/2020/02/07/deb…

"Unlimited Paid Time Off" is Silicon Valley's version of the Marshmallow Test on its workers, testing their will and devotion. A truly worker-centric model of care for personal lives of employees would be "# Of Days Mandatory Paid Time Off."

Part of the problem is that we reward people for writing code, not for the far greater skills of NOT writing code, or successfully managing a good vendor relationship and saving the company from a category problem.

Yup. The OSS model of feature branches & PRs was designed for distributed, volunteer, casual-membership teams. xitter.cf/bguthrie/status/937750…
Rant time: today I'd like to talk about feature branching and GitHub—how we got here, what they are (and aren't) good for, why that matters, and what you can do instead. Join me, friends! /1
