How to test if Dataloader is working correctly, we are going to turn on server logging in order to see how many queries are being made to our db. If Dataloader is setup correctly, we should only see one hit on our db perrequest, even if duplicate data is being requested. Here's how to enable logging on postgresql. Note - This is the Mac way to enable logging.

• subl /usr/local/var/postgres/postgresql.conf

• around line 434 log_statement = 'all' uncomment and set to all log_statement = 'all'

• then brew service restart postgresql

Debriefing Classroom Tips

Debrief by questions.

Helps us stay focused on the question and helps see if there are any patterns across cohorts.

Debrief in small groups then medium groups.

We usually debrief in small groups (groups of 4 with whom we observed), and then in combined groups (groups of 8 with 2 groups who saw some of the same classrooms at different times). Smaller networks may have a small-group followed by a whole-group structure.

We often use a guideline like “everyone speaks once before anyone speaks twice” or “three before me” to help balance air time and hear from everyone.

The most important principle: Fairness, and the perception of fairness, is much more valuable than owning a large stake. Almost everything that can go wrong in a startup will go wrong, and one of the biggest things that can go wrong is huge, angry, shouting matches between the founders as to who worked harder, who owns more, whose idea was it anyway, etc. That is why I would always rather split a new company 50-50 with a friend than insist on owning 60% because "it was my idea," or because "I was more experienced" or anything else. Why? Because if I split the company 60-40, the company is going to fail when we argue ourselves to death. And if you ju
