It won't be the first time our understanding is flipped upside down if such a framework of thought arises.

What's interesting about Tesla is that his visualization powess. He was gifted with insane capabilities of visualization. He said he would build assemble his inventions in his head, go to the lab to build it. And it would work on the first attempt.

That's similar to coming up with all the code in your head and passing the compiler and tests on the first try without any errors.

Crazy.

I understand your concern for clickbait but it has to sound exciting enough for users to try.

The other tag line with breaking a sweat would be much better.

Maybe you should think about it from the listener's POV? For me a podcast has to be interesting or useful. If a title can meet that I will click.

Maybe it's a marketing problem? I had a tab of your podcast open, but never listened to it.

The writing needs work. There is too much. You need to cut down and try to distill the good stuff essence for each episode to make users want to click.

For example,

"QAWolf Helps You Create Automated Browser Tests as You Use Your Site"

-> Automated Testing for your website

The verbiage adds up.

Google customer service is atrocious. Their ability to solve customer support issues is effectively a toss up.

Please do better Google.

Make it three hours a day. Grooming, picking pants, packing computer, etc, those all take time. If you're working 8 hours, you're spending 3/8 = 37.5% of the time not building value.

Which is insane in retrospect.

People who have not grown up poor can't really understand it. It's not only about the money. It's about the constant stress and fear whether or not you're going to make it.

Just work hard in school to get out is actually pretty hard. Learning is like swimming through molasses because of the constant stress. It gives you a lifetime of trauma and damage.

Mighty was great. If they had a Windows/Linux port it would be killer as it would have allowed you to run all kind of apps without carrying a $1.5k computer around. That was the dream.

I'd also expect their pricing to go down given economies of scale.

I lowkey wanted them to be super ambitious and one day roll out their own chips and become a full stack computer company.
