Governments are so ineffective because they have extreme customer lock-in - 9/10 people can’t simply switch (because their entire life is there). Oh and unlike a real business they can also lock you up if you don’t pay them, so they can provide negative value and still get paid.

I’m not pro dishonesty and would be pissed if this guy had wasted my time and drawn a salary, but the Soham saga is so crazy I can’t help but be impressed. What a crazy thing to decide to do - the sheer amount of people popping up is wild. Wonder what his income looked like.

I absolutely loathe bureaucracy and regulation, but I share the view that thinking that’s what’s behind the EU/US divide is incorrect.
In the US, there is a pervasive desire for more-and-better, coupled with the absence of shame and cynicism (and then the obvious head start/rich-get-richer, network effects that compound that).
It’s not the one-true-way - both have benefits and trade offs, and I like the European way. But you don’t get US level wealth by simply removing over regulation and keeping the culture the same.

Lots of talk on the timeline about micro managing after the Paul Graham essay, and I think repositioning “micro managing” as a positive thing is dumb.
The thing they’re referring to - being involved in the details and having veto power - is IMO different to micro management. Using the same term is going to backfire when neurotic CEOs use it as an excuse for toxic culture.

@cloudflare I have a worker that just fetches and serves a js file, sitting on a subdomain that's proxied and (I think) has caching turned on. cf-cache-status is HIT on most requests, but I still see them registering as requests in the worker logs. Is there a way to layer caching…

There are 2 reasons I wrote this thread (and went into so much detail):
1. To handle objections that might kill an experiment like this before it's started, &
2. To find others who are already working like this, or considering it.
Would love to hear opinions on both sides.

So, what started as an experiment became a regular part of our process. Now, whenever we start a new project with a small team, the staging VM is the first thing we do. The benefits, if your team culture is compatible, are unmistakeable.

@xaviablaza I just think that, as misdeeds go, that's minor in comparison to an employer taking advantage of crab mentality to keep jobseekers from being ambitious, encouraging them to point fingers at each other rather than at the employers, who in a lot of cases should be paying more.
