Hey Hacker News! I'm the developer of Emporion. It's a really new project but I'd be happy to answer any questions.

Yes, self made. Based on fairly standard practices. The intensity of the plan workouts are based on how you are performing during the training block and adapt to fit the most “optimal” for you

1. Communicate this to your leadership? They can’t read your mind and communication is the only thing that makes an organisation work.

2. You don’t have to join the team and just observer the status quo, especially in an under performing team. I see a Sr Staff Eng as a leadership role- shatter the status quo and reform it to be a high performing team.

Take the bull by the horns.

Edit: This will do more for your career than any team or product you can produce.

The fact people are using either is mind numbing. Such a waste of life.

Nostr (https://nostr.com/) is doing reasonably- though I think most apps are still in the social media realm.

Not having a local development env is a total productivity burner for me.

This is true in crypto, but not true in Bitcoin

The supply wouldn’t even be increasable if SHA256 is cracked

It’s also not just that! theres no requirement for a business to be involved for it to be an investment (e.g Gov bonds)

I admire the 6 year dedication (or architectural investment?). We were both jumping aboard that hype train in 2018, even talked about it in meat-space. I left that project in 2019 and never looked at GraphQL again, so didn’t make it as far you to the technical depths.

Something just never felt right about the client building the queries for me, I guess.

Certainly doesn't seem like first principles...

I certainly had no intention of attempting to put words in your mouth, but I believe the words you wrote have the implications that I highlighted.

I disagree that I am being dishonest. I stand by the fact that the money is stolen. Bank rescues are financed through the monetisation of government debt, this causes monetary debasement which directly confiscates purchasing power of those who hold the money, without their permission. This fits the definition of theft.
