Took just over 50% pay cut when switching from product management to engineering. Funded it through savings

Was absolutely the right choice for me and my satisfaction increased enormously. And the salary did make it back up in around 3yrs

I'm completely stuck on this. I brute forced it, but it took 2 minutes to find the solution. I just can't think of a better way.

Both of today's problems were there first where efficiency seemed to be a real limiting factor

Heard your relatively recent episode on @syntax.fm. I'd been aware of atomic design at a high level prior but hadn't connected the dots

I'm curious how you'd go about building a culture of betterment somewhere that doesn't currently practice it. Or where only a small number of individuals do.

How does this become a whole-team activity?
