  • "I walked through the code for a react.js based tic-tac-toe game written in typescript. The goal was to find ways to improve the code/ suggest improvements.

First considering the macro aspects that are: what is the main business goal and is the product addressing it? what is the user value and how the product is working towards this? And by last, what is the success metric, and how likely the product as it is, is in the way of accomplish it?

Fortunately, there are other brewing techniques that can be used that do not rely on gravity. A lot of novelty coffee is brewed by forcing water through densely packed coffee grounds with pressure. This removes the requirement of gravity. If we have a plunger system with coffee grounds between a screen on the bottom, and water on top, we can use a plunger to push the water t"

    "Great question! I think it's very important to teach kids about investment. Couple that with the trend of kids becoming tech savvy at a younger age, there's a big opportunity to design a useful product. I'd like to start by breaking down the customer segment of "kids."
