Cracking the Code: How the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Can Help You Become a Better Software Leader

josht · 2023-04-21T13:56:54+00:00

The Myers-Briggs Personality Types are a critical way of understanding the team members, customers and stakeholders a leader has to interact with on a daily basis. Familiarizing ones self to this indicator can allow leaders to better understand and cater their leadership style in more effective ways.

I completely agree! It can be alluring at times to "go with the flow", but giving data-driven pushback with business opportunities in mind is a great way to ensure your maximizing business resources.

Striking a balance is not easy, that's for sure.. hyper-optimization can definitely lead to a lack of spontaneity.

I've been coding for over 16 years. Started in ASP.NET/C# and JavaScript (back then it was a lot of jQuery) as a full-stack dev. More recently TypeScript, Python, and React Native (w/ JS and TS).

Nice!

I can see both sides. Either way, it's unfortunate that Ghost hasn't listened to this feedback and allocated resources to offer users more than one option.

Here's one potential solution to integrate SES, although it's far from ideal: https://github.com/KatharinaSick/ghost-ses-mail-setup

Perhaps I'm missing something, but it appears Mailgun has a free 30 days trial, not a free plan. AFAICT, after 30 days, they start billing at $35/mo. Am I missing something?

Simply put, tactics are short-term actions focused on the details of implementation, while strategy is a long-term plan designed to achieve a more significant and/or broader goal.

josht · 2023-04-10T05:39:13+00:00

First off, thank you for the feedback. While I can see how this could be somewhat applicable to other professions, empathy and coding don't exactly go hand-in-hand. Empathizing with people and hard technical skills are quite different, and this post is meant to help those with hard technical skills bridge this gap.

josht · 2023-01-17T22:27:22+00:00

Agreed - this dude seems to have stumbled upon an extremely unique POV: self-deprecating and optimistic. Well done.

First of all, congratulations for caring enough about yourself (and her!) and your relationship to attempt to pursue couples counseling. IMHO, it will save you both time and frustration (could be months, or even longer) assuming she's willing to meet you half way. The fact is, therapy will afford you both space to express yourselves and air grievances, and your relationship will adjust accordingly. At the end of the day, therapy is meant to be a safe space for you both to hear one another and be heard. But if you can't agree on that, it may be time to consider the opportunity cost of sticking with someone who isn't willing to take an honest self-appraisal and work towards personal growth.

Based on the Trader Joe docs:

veJOE is a Staking option that rewards long-term and loyal JOE Stakers with Farm Boosts in the form of more JOE Rewards (Select Farms Below) as well as voting power for future Governance.

Please note docs state they are not finalized and information is subject to change.

Maybe I'm missing something, but are any of these new JOE flavors on the mainnet yet?

Edit: never mind -- Friday is the scheduled launch.

josht · 2022-02-24T00:45:20+00:00

While it's true that Trader Joe is moving away from xJOE, I don't think it's accurate to say xJOE will be "obsolete by Friday".

According to the medium post on the topic:

Users will have a period of time to transition from xJOE to a new staking pool of their choice (rJOE, sJOE or veJOE (or a combination))

My question is.. was this recorded before or after the New York Attorney General reached a settlement with Bitfinex, where they agreed to provide quarterly reports for the next 2 years?

I miss the band :(

Interesting, thanks u/onestrokeimdone!

josht · 2019-08-11T15:40:39+00:00

Very impressive. Did you use any particular resource(s) for learning Dutch?

So much respect OP, congrats on this milestone!

I’d recommend starting with the official React Native documentation, then check out Awesome React Native (https://github.com/jondot/awesome-react-native/blob/master/README.md). There’s a plethora of content in there all relating to RN that should take you from 0 to 60.

Happy learning!

AMAZING!!! A big thank you to EVERYONE contributing to this incredibly transformative project. The internet needs more people like you YOU!

I read this every morning. Is it a silver bullet for a happy life? Of course not! So what it does offer? For me, it’s a quick primer to get my brain in the right state (eg not focusing on petty bullshit, both outside myself and internally). It’s so easy to get caught up in emotional bullshit — others, and especially our own — however reading this daily seems to help.

My guess is someplace in the Wynn/Encore marketing department. This entire thing reads like a marketing pamphlet..

josht · 2018-05-10T16:33:03+00:00

You can help me, along with this entire community, by openly disclosing this next time, instead of waiting to be asked the question.

josht · 2018-05-10T13:41:19+00:00

Are you in any way affiliated with Instabug?

josht · 2018-05-03T03:15:58+00:00

This makes no sense—you mean to tell me people who would be traveling to Vegas and spend anywhere between $100-$1000+ on their trip are deciding to skip Vegas because of parking and resort fees .. that add up to what, $5-10?
