Wow thanks for sharing this. Have always wanted to do this ever since I read the first blog on growing crystals [big time procrastination there]. Please share your experience and steps if any for other salts. I am super interested in the blue of Copper sulphate.

My naive question is "how do you guys manage profitability? and hence survive as a company". That's the one point that I can't explain to someone when I rant about companies making devices that cannot be repaired and would last an average 3 years.

Thanks for following up with this list after your previous one. I spent a great deal of my time (including some office time) on writing a Chip-8 emulator thanks to your previous list :D

Is it just me, or the background in the link is killing my eyes. Request the OP to change it. On other note, I Completely agree with this. I would recommend online games to many students and even professionals to learn critical skills (Insert Leadership and planning).

Is this to generate training data for your AI to the job? :D

It is the best way to stay motivated as a programmer. The power to model a real world scenario into code and seeing it work has been my motivation to keep coding. Make sure you also look at that stupid code once in a while and ponder "What was i thinking?"

Yup. That's been the mantra for now.

This was an amazing read. Thanks for the post. While leading a really small tech team for a fast paced and ever-morphing world of Esports in India, this was a really helpful (It looks like your team plays a lot of CS:CZ. SoStronk is our product #ShamelessPlug). This point of yours caught my attention.

>Be extremely wary of technical debt. Know when to scrap and rewrite systems. We have scrapped and rewritten the majority of our stack, including our critical trading platforms, multiple times, improving them significantly with each iteration. These are tough decisions; extremely important trade-offs. Of course, non-interference from non-technical management is incredible luck.

This is what i have always struggled with. I fear the day someone asks me the version of a few web frontend libraries we use. Being debt free from day 1 is a bit farfetched for our industry. So the balance between "work on that tech debt" vs "build new features" always tips towards the latter. The philosophy till now has been to get it working and don't change what ain't broke. But make sure good engineering practices are always in place as much as possible. Still figuring out where and how do i invent time to fix tech debts and/or rewrite something

Oh! I did not know that Google Assistant can do that. Thanks a lot. Will try it for sure. #TIL

Ah! Thanks for the link.
