Some fun facts about me:

I started coding over 20 years ago.

At age 18 I taught myself French, because my family couldn't afford a US university tuition. I moved to France.

At age 22 I worked half-time as a software engineer and started my first mobile app agency.

At age 24 I sold the agency and founded a startup (“Klout for coders”). It failed.

At age 26 I pivoted to fintech and built Kubernetes as a Service and teams around it at Bloomberg.


Since then I co-founded a few startups, some of which succeeded:

18 Subtle Rules of Software Engineering:

0. You WILL regret complexity when on-call 
1. Stop falling in love with your own code 
2. Every single thing is a trade-off - no "best"
3. Every line of code you wrote is a liability
4. Document your designs and decisions
5. Everyone hates code they didn’t write
6. Don't use unnecessary dependencies
7. Coding standards prevent arguments
8. Write meaningful commit descriptions
9. Never ever stop learning new things
10. Code reviews are to spread context
11. Always build for maintainability
12. Always ask for help when stuck
13. Fix root causes, not symptoms
14. Software is never finished
15. Estimates are not promises
16. Ship early, iterate often
17. Keep. It. Simple.
