Quotes:

"What it takes to succeed in a corporate environment… it’s not just technology. It’s business domain acumen, it’s technology and it’s interpersonal skills"

"I know I’m working harder than most people, they’re going to notice me. But you’re not doing the kinds of things you need to do to engage at a human level. So that people know what you’re doing. You just assume people know. They don’t… It’s human relations at the end of the day."

14 - 'If someone expresses confidence in you, believe them!' ft. Tony Amos

Friends That Code podcast — Wed, 23 Sep 2020 16:10:36 +0000

Some of my favorite quotes from this episode:

“Close your eyes. Take a deep breathe. Let it out. 'You can do this'... but he didn't say it like that... It was a direct order” - Tony Amos

“Software is a reflection of the people who build it. Software is supposed to integrate with life in order to solve a problem, but if the people writing the software don’t have the life experiences … then it leaves something lacking in the software.” - Tony Amos

“If someone expresses confidence in you, believe them” - Tony Amos

11 - Getting a Masters Degree with a GI Bill, Silly things recruiters say, FANG interview tips ft. Roland Heintze

Friends That Code podcast — Mon, 07 Sep 2020 17:40:31 +0000

On 02 September, I got a chance to reconnect with a friend of mine. A veteran of the United States Marine Corps. A Senior Full Stack Engineer. A Master's Degree Student. To me he's kind of like if you combined Mr. Rogers with Bertram Gilfoyle of Silicon Valley. I get to talk with Roland Heintze!

We sit down and talk about our experience at a startup, his experiences as a Marine and as a software developer and how they compare and how he balances work and studying for his Master's degree.
