Source: [https://lobste.rs/s/lbavmm/what_blog_posts_influenced_your_thinking](https://lobste.rs/s/lbavmm/what_blog_posts_influenced_your_thinking) He gets some haters here \(it should be remarked that people having any opinion at all about a blogger is notable in itself\) but I really liked the post by Sean Goedecke on how to actually ship things:[https://www\.seangoedecke\.com/how\-to\-ship/](https://www.seangoedecke.com/how-to-ship/) It is actually very possible to build a successful career within large tech companies without actually shipping anything\. I am prone to the perfectionist’s curse of endless creativity when it comes to doing ever more testing and validation, resulting in a sort of Zeno situation where I get overwhelmed chasing down the fractal tail of issues to resolve before completing something\. So I found the post useful with its focus on repeatedly asking yourself what the shortest possible path at that moment is to shipping something, and how “shipping” is socially constructed\.
