100% agree with the "you don't", but I wouldn't be surprised if young startups or highly stressed teams delivering low-risk products will do just that and deliver unreviewed code

> Is lighting an invisible variable in productivity that startups are ignoring?

There are two questions here- lighting is a known factor influencing productivity, you can easily google that.

Are startups ignoring it? I don't have any data showing that, but I wouldn't be surprised

LLM's are far from perfect, any production grade code must go through a human inspection unless it's a tiny ad hoc app. This means that you need to be familiar with the languiage and the environment to get good quality code.

I suppose it's a combination, some people are more comfortable speaking and improvising on the spot but everyone needs to practice. I can add to your list a CEO of a big bank, he speaks freely and it's a pleasent to listen to him, but I heard that he practice using a private instructor as well

> That said, it’s not my strong suit. Others are far better at it than I am.

I don't know you, and I feel the same about my public speaking but I suspenct that there's a lot of imposter syndrom in that

> 9. render the presentation as a pdf file, so any device can display it

That's good as a backup, or for simpler presentations (in a good way!) but Powerpoint allows you all kinds of benefits like animations or transitions. Presnting PDFs is not guaranteed to be pain free as well, as I expereince on my corporate controlled laptop with stange versions of Adobe software.

> 11. the anxiety goes away

It does! also remember that the audience doesn't know what you are going to present, so they wouldn't care if you make mistakes.

I will add

13. Practice and learn speaking, a good start could be Vinh Giang's Youtube channel

Depending on the context, git lfs for essential binaries, Artifact/Asset Repository for high volume of binaries like build or test artifctas.

Security and the avaialble scannning tools are also part of the decision, and so is the expected usage- do you expect to consume the resource outside of the context of Git.

> I issue invoices only after a successful payment, because I owe tax on all invoices including unpaid

(IANA I am not an accountant) but how is it legal? as a customer you want to pay against an invoice, and AFAIK it is required by law in most places.

I was in a team that wrote the firmware to handle that 15 years ago, with focus on automotive implementations where temperature might be high and access to the data is harder.

a. I am too lazy to search but they probably did, the problem was what was done with the information. Same with 8200 the all mighty signal intelligence corps

b. The Mossad is the equivalent of the CIA, they are not meant to act inside Israel

It's even worse, you find a key that you know belonged to your neighbor so you try it out just in case in his door.

(playing the devil's advocate here) But that's not the case- if you find someone's physical keys in the street, will try to open the neighbor's door with it? so why is it ok to use a password that you "found" to log into a site?
