If you want to be good at something, you really have to work at it every single day. You have to work hard at the things that are hard. Otherwise you are just treading water.

Particularly if you're a good engineer, there's a lot of ways you can make money, but to actually have an impact on the world is rare, and when you find an opportunity for that, it's very special.

Money and salary is not a particularly good motivator in the long term.

I think it's good to have different locations for different modes you want to be in throughout the day, and to keep them separate.

Sometimes you might feel blogs are like TV: You have a thousand channels, but nothing good is on.

It's good to be in a role when you can learn something new.

I'm really good at making software for publishing.
