But then if you can't access the real thing, you shouldn't watch porn as well.
Because it means there's some deficiency in your life, some problem that you have to overcome.
I try to act under assumption that I'm not going to die in one hour from now, and I'm going to stick around for a bit, despite the fact that we are all mortal.

Doesn't make any sense.
Quick pause, bathroom break.
Yeah, let's take a break.
The core engineering team is about 40 people.
This includes backend, frontend, designers, system administrators.
Well, what we realized really early is that
quantity of employees doesn't translate to quality of the product they produce, in many cases is the opposite.
If you have too many people, they have to coordinate their efforts, constantly communicate, and 90% of their time will be spent on coordinating the small pieces of work they're responsible for between each other.
The other problem with having too many employees is that some of them won't get enough work to do.
And if they don't get enough work to do, they demotivate everybody else by their mere existence.
They're still there, they're still getting the salary, but they don't do anything.
And if they don't do anything, more often than not, they will start trying to find their purpose elsewhere.
maybe inside your team, but not by doing productive work, but by finding problems that don't exist within the team.
Also, when you intentionally don't allow some of your team members to hire more people to help them,
they will be forced to automate things.
