Пітер Тіль, "Від нуля до одиниці"

Почав власне  читати цю чудову книгу і не можу не записати одну цитату з неї:

"Смартфони, що відволікають нас від навколишнього світу, також відвертають нашу увагу від того факту, що наше довкілля на диво старе: від середини минулого століття помітно поліпшилися хіба що комп'ютери та комунікації."

Такі справи панове.

Continuous Integration for free

I conduct interviews and one thing a like a lot - mostly every time candidate says something I don't know. Today it was mentioned a free tools for doing Continuous Integration & Continuous Delivery:

• Bitbucket Pipelines - https://bitbucket.org/product/features/pipelines

These both have free plans and may run tests, do builds, make deployments.

"The 4-Hour Workweek" book by T. Ferriss

My mentor have mentioned this book today. We have talked about savings and personal finance reserves and "The 4-Hour Workweek" book appeared in our talk. It is not about "not working" at all, and living life of bummer. Doing nothing is boring itself, and it may be a worst punishment for a lot of people - to make them do nothing.
