grigy··on Lean Startup is Hard
Right, it's from wantrepreneur. The post just tries to highlight the areas that are hard to me as a developer. And I think most of technical people face with this.
grigy··on How to Pick Startup Idea
I agree. But even by following the MVP methodology we still need to pick an idea to start with. Regardless the belief that execution is the key and idea worth nothing, I would still pick the one which satisfies most of the points.

Doesn't this depend on person? I never had naps and don't feel like I need.
grigy··on Ask HN: Book of the year
I also read The Lean Startup, but didn't like it much. Actually it didn't teach me anything new. Maybe because I read it after reading the "Running Lean" by Ash Maurya and "Start Small, Stay Small" by Rob Walling. They cover the same ideas and are more practical.

grigy··on The Book That Every Programmer Should Read
I picked the basics of programming and how computers work with a book called "The Beginner's Computer Handbook - Understanding & Programming The Micro". Actually this book was the reason I became a programmer. I was 8 years old when received it as present on birthday from my dad.

I could not find a link to the book, but found this blog post which has also some pictures:
