Today I still time my coffee :) but the main levers are more mundane: drink less, run every morning, and work outside when possible.

9 years I wrote about productivity and created a chart on how to time your coffee consumption for max productivity.

1/4 The best kind of dogfooding: Nx Cloud’s self-healing CI is already fixing tests while we polish the self-healing feature for next week's release. Nothing validates a tool like using it yourself.

There are two ways for a build tool to be fast:

The first one is the "how fast is your car” fast. Raw speed.
The second one is the "how good is your navigation" fast.

The benefits of working from home. Every day, for many hours, I have a purring cat sitting on me.

Some folks like putting interesting things on their desks. I have "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance". What do you have?

There is a design tension between how robust and cohesive the dev tool is.

⬆️ robust and feature-rich -> ⬇️ cohesive (more friction)

There is a point in the middle where the tradeoff is right.
