Mistakes and Trade-offs when optimizing the hot-path

I call this the entourage effect: by combining secondary controls or interventions that may not be game-changers by themselves, we amplify the success of the critical 20%.

Top tasks survey β€” One weird trick to improve information architecture and user experience

One of the most powerful methods in information architecture and user experience is also one of the least well-known. The top tasks method uses a single survey question that tells you exactly what matters most to your users. I find it so effective that I’m amazed more people haven’t used it.

5 #laws for founders
1. #ParkinsonsLaw : Time is elastic. Discipline is your edge.
2. #ChestertonsFence : Innovate, yes; but understand what you’re changing.
3. #LawofDiminishingReturns : Don’t brute-force growth. Calibrate it
4. #ParetoPrinciple : Not everything matters equally. Focus sharply.
5. #OccamsRazor : Simple scales. Simple sells. Simple succeeds.

Overloading your system with unnecessary layers can lead to diminishing returns.

The Entourage Effect in Cybersecurity and Life: Amplifying Results with Minimal Effort

In the world of cybersecurity, business, and even personal growth, we’re often told to focus on the few things that drive the majority of outcomes. The Pareto Principle, or the β€œ80/20 rule,” is oft…

πŸš€ Breaking news: Search engine crawlers are taking longer coffee breaks than your average office worker! 🐒 Apparently, shrinking memory means faster crawling... except when it doesn't, because the last 0.1% is on vacation for a week! πŸ“… Clearly, Pareto forgot to distribute common sense! πŸ˜‚

Crawl Order and Disorder

A problem the search engine’s crawler has struggled with for some time is that it takes a fairly long time to finish up, usually spending several days wrapping up the final few domains. This has been actualized recently, since the migration to slop crawl data has dropped memory requirements of the crawler by something like 80%, and as such I’ve been able to increase the number of crawling tasks, which has led to a bizarre case where 99.

Whether it’s in cybersecurity, business, or personal growth, understanding how to build a system that amplifies its own core interventions is key.

Not Quite Random

One counterintuitive place to use Pareto's principle is building foundation (80%) vs delivering features (20%) in IT.

Most teams are coerced to do the inverse.

And it sort of works. For a limited amount of time. Then they slow down. Because they have technical debt, they had to cut corners, they had to do this last minute hack, ...

Eventually being net waaaaaay slower than those teams that ship (to users) "just" 20% of the time.
