For all the talk of Deep Work and Focus, this comic on why you shouldn't interrupt a programmer resonates the most to me. Maybe that's why as a developer at heart, I struggle doing many time-spliced interrupt driven tasks at work: heeris.id.au/2013/this-is-wh…
This is the longest blog post that I’ve been the happiest to read. Awesome details from your journey @JhumanJ

Top 5 best selling items on ThemeForest marketplace accounting for more than $100 million in sales are multipurpose WordPress themes
Conclusion is not that WordPress sells well. The point here is that making tech accessible for masses of non-tech users sells the most
I love tweets like this. Made me aware of @jittervideo - literally 10 minutes later and I’ve signed up and generated enough of an animation to know it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for. Thanks @heyeaslo !

I’ve built 10 micro-SaaS products without knowing how to code.
Here’s why I think you should be building them too.
I’ve been co-founder / co-owner (and CTO) for most of the last two decades and I believe that making yourself “redundant” in whatever “roles” you’re currently doing is the best thing you can do. Removes you as the bottleneck. Company grows. Others around you grow.

So many great newsletters around #tech #buildinpublic and #solopreneur these days, here’s a 4 of my recent faves:

If the existence of a person in a physical room or building (“at work”) is the way you ascertain that they’re doing a good job then you’re seriously mismanaging your employees, if that’s your measure, then you’re flying completely blind

The most important skill to learn is how to learn on your own.
Mentors are great, but overrated.
Mentors work well when you've reached a ceiling of teaching yourself everything you could possibly know about a subject.
Learn to learn and you've built a life-changing muscle.

If you don't have the space to make things enjoyable, you're probably doing it wrong... 🎉 Of course, there's nothing more fun than genuine efficiency and efficacy but lately I haven't had the headspace to make things really buttery smooth and fun. Time to fix this! 😄
One for tonight. One for when @danielricciardo wins the world championship, and one to really age. #DR3

Some people seem out of their time - like this chap who looks more like a Beatnik from 1950 than from 1850, but he was actually photographed 170 years ago. The glasses give the impression he may have been blind, yet he still paid to have a photograph taken of himself with his cat
I love the idea of this - an eslint plugin for inclusive language. Makes me want to pass it over all my codebases to see what it turns up. Nice work @muenzpraeger !
Released v2.0.0 of my @geteslint plugin for #inclusive #language - contains also a breaking change, so make sure to read the migration instructions.
