  • I always right my code linearly like on the left example with comments like further in the articles. Actually what I do if I right all the comments first and then add the code. If I push my code like that everyone immediately understand my code find bugs & potentiel issues with it and then tells me to refactor it in whatever flavor of best practice they like. If I structure it like on the right reviewers still complain about the structure I choose but never identify any bug or other real issues.

    All my career everyone would say elegance and cleverness are bad but everyone who gets promoted are the one who insist on elegant and clever code. I guess it’s because their confident and vocal and that’s what human are programmed to pick as leaders






  • A more useful guideline would be something like: how to steer a conversation to be constructive for both parties.

    I couldn’t get chatgpt to make this into a spectrum like in the pyramid but if you invert the order of the negative impact section and concatenate it after the positive liste you get the text for that pyramid. It does make sense though

    Positive Impact:

    1. Collaborative problem-solving
    2. Active listening and empathy
    3. Finding common ground
    4. Constructive feedback
    5. Open-ended questions
    6. Positive tone and inclusive language
    7. Clarifying and paraphrasing
    8. “I” statements
    9. Avoiding defensiveness and judgment
    10. Seeking solutions together

    Negative Impact:

    1. Interrupting or talking over the other person
    2. Dismissing or invalidating the other person’s perspective
    3. Using aggressive or confrontational language
    4. Making personal attacks or insults
    5. Ignoring or belittling the other person’s feelings
    6. Dominating the conversation and not allowing equal participation
    7. Stonewalling or refusing to engage in discussion
    8. Manipulating or twisting the other person’s words
    9. Engaging in passive-aggressive behavior
    10. Refusing to consider alternative viewpoints



  • I know Ence is one team in CSGO who’s generating profits. They are a smaller orgs that has in game success.

    I think the issue is you have some teams full of venture money that inflates the salaries and makes it super hard for other teams to have in game success while not going broke.

    That being said my suggestion for csgo (it’s only scene I follow) would be leagues line in traditional sports. Each team plays a game every week and you have playoffs at the end of the year. Put those league games on your own platform and have people pay a subscription to watch. I would pay up to 100$/year (I’m aware I’m the exception). With this model you might even be able to have a few hubs where games are played at a small venue in front of paying crowd. I could imagine a few hubs where teams would move to to play regularly. Something like: New York, Rio, Malta, Copenhagen, Moscow

    I think one of the biggest problem is demographics, the younger generations that’s in eSports is broke. No eSports fan is going to buy a Dodge RAM (using this as an example because traditional sports are littered with pick up ads and the car industry is a huge advertiser because they need to constantly gaslight people into thinking that driving isn’t a chore)
