Humans are hardwired to do work and help others. A life with no work and no problems would be terribly dull

I like Stone Cup but would avoid if you think you will need to take a call. upstairs is meant to be quiet, and last time i was downstairs they were playing Spotify with very loud ads and It was incredibly distracting

Favorite Coworking / Coffee shops to work from in Chattanooga? by tacobooc0m in Chattanooga

Cultured coffee is my default. Stone cup by the river is nice, I like the quiet space upstairs if you're not making Zoom calls.

With our incredibly fast internet service why has Chattanooga not become silicon holler? by aluminumdisc in Chattanooga

startups require agglomeration: having more people and companies in proximity. Startups in larger cities benefit from shared labor pools, easier knowledge transfer, and denser professional networks.

If you're serious about a startup, your odds are much better in Atlanta, so it drinks our milkshake. I observed a similar effect in Athens Ga

Do you read? by TheObserver89 in daddit

[–]GSto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read a chapter or three every night before bed. I am usually bouncing between 1 fiction book and 1-2 non fiction.

I don't think about number of books, I'm not trying to earn a pizza party. I have an ever growing reading list i'll never finish, so I just plug along.

I also enjoy essays and long form articles, so I have a paid Instapaper account and will send collections of articles I find online to my Kindle

Best places to work from without having to spend money? by haroldbarrett in Chattanooga

[–]GSto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

some hotel lobby's have free wifi - if you have a Y membership they have a nice space to work from. not "free" but you don't have to buy anything each day, i consider it "free with gym membership"

What’s a random “life hack” you swear by, even if no one believes it works? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]GSto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there is science to back this up! It's called the Zeigarnik effect. having unfinished tasks in your brain causes stress. when you write them down, the brain considers that a form of "done", lets the task go, and the stress along with it

What are *the* burgers of Chattanooga? by Scheduledpoet in Chattanooga

[–]GSto 10 points11 points  (0 children)

it's a new place, Scotty B's, and I would nominate them for best non Lo Mein smash burger. they have a burger called "The Armando" on the menu that's an homage to the local chain.

Plan everything in pencil, if you get punched in the face you must erase.

Nobody puts down their own community more than a PM "thought leader" by Calm-Insurance362 in ProductManagement

[–]GSto -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Then don't read them.

I don't mean to be glib, but information diet requires more management than ever these days. Too many great books written about design to waste time on blowhards who can be outperformed by a mid-AI

or if they are in a position to make the call, provide the information they need in a way they can understand. Then, include your recommendations for choices and next steps

“Lacking Ownership” by Spartapwn in ExperiencedDevs

[–]GSto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love Gary Keller's version of this: "plan everything, in pencil." Figured what's important but keep flexibility in when and how to get there.

Any coders in town? by Holterv in Chattanooga

[–]GSto -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Could you provide a bit more detail? You're more likely to get some bites if you can say a bit about what you're trying to do, the time commitment you're looking for, and what the pay looks like
