usrusrusr··on Ask HN: How to tell quickly if someone is professional?
So do I but,

1. I carry a Kindle with me. I read a lot and I can do it as well waiting in a office/lounge/Airport as at my bed.

2. I don't value my time more than collective time of four people waiting for me to start a meeting/meetup/lunch.

Which are generated with sphinx, which is a doc tool he created ...

I am smelling a bit of Knuth here. (No good typesetting, so lets create Tex.) :)

usrusrusr··on Paul Buchheit: Serendipity finds you
If you tie your success to only how well a company is going to do, you are setting up for fail (And feeling unlucky, and so slightly pissed off at work.). There are too many external factors deciding that.

I measure my success in many ways.

1. Do I havea loving family. Check.

2. Do I have fulfilling hobbies. Check.

3. Do I have enough money to fulfill my responsibilities and hobby, doing things I love. Check.

4. Do I have as much money as I would want to call myself successful. Not yet.

Tying my success to many parameters I can feel a little successful everyday, and continue to feel lucky, and continue to work toward what I would call a successful startup.

No. Public transport might be unreliable, but if unreliable it is unreliable it is so in a regular way.

If you value others time, you can use that regularity and be punctual in spite of unreliable, traffic, public trsnaport etc.
