Do such checkpoints really help in the long term? An athlete begins to learn by doing and then watching others. There's no playbook there, he just begins by playing an abridged version of the pro. A highly successful athlete is the one understands his game on his own and not following what the sporting greats before him did. I believe ambitious journeys are a process of self-discovery. If there is anything that helps is learning from the mistakes of successful ones, learning from one's own mistakes and doing one's own best each day. It's a deliberate practice.
You are right but one doesn't need a checklist or a threshold for skills to be an entrepreneur. My argument on comparison with athletes was that we all learn on the go - no one is perfectly fit for any job until one starts doing it.
My therapist informed recently that counselling sessions should continue even if you feel healed because the anxiety might return and counselling helps to maintain a direction towards autonomy. Thankfully, I am not suggested for dosing.
In order to maintain autonomy, I have not seen my therapist for a month now after meeting her for at least twice every month in last 16 months. I do agree with the author that depression is a natural response to disconnect from the nature. Everyone has a grey side and one must be comfortable to express it. Often lack of expression leads to self-inflicted guilt.
It depends from one form to other and sensitivity of data. Our company has developed a product to transform data from pdfs (electronic & non-machine readable files) for financial services. To meet the needs of customers, we have developed parsers for bank statements, loan/lease agreements, valuation reports and portfolio analysis.
There are 20% of the documents that are scanned and require OCRs to be trained for different fonts. We wrote about challenges with currents OCRs: https://medium.com/zodhana/modern-day-challenges-with-docume...
Doesn’t Heroku also sound similar to a co-working space? As far as I understand that Heroku is a miniature EC2 that is not cost-efficient at scale. Same goes with coworking space, there’s only a limited a company can grow in a defined space. After consuming co-working’s capacity, the company is on its own.
Docker is technically explained correct but its analogy with a co-working space doesn’t sound perfect to me.
There are many who have a fulltime job and yet want to learn to code. I have been trying JS for last two months but I am not consistent because I often get stuck. There is a limit to what one can do with online resources unless there is someone to comment on your code. I have started with Eloquent JS and Codewars. Ultimate plan is to advance to Javascript30 by Wes Bos, post that one should be good enough for jobs.
First few members will be involved in brainstorming the design. Please comment and I'll reach out to you. Please update your profile with email as I have done.
Just like finding a spouse is an art, there’s no science behind finding a cofounder. You might a cofounder who does not fit the bill discussed in the thread or the article. We get together to make something work with equanimity.
I am building an application for finding credible businesses and individuals who have little or no formal credit history. Since it involves access to sensitive financial information, I want to remain up-to-date with the new computing platform that blockchain is. We are the cusp of a tech-tonic shift as computers and softwares were in 70s,80s,90s and so on.
