Make it real

Ideas are cheap. Make a prototype, sketch a CLI session, draw a wireframe. Discuss around concrete examples, not hand-waving abstractions. Don't say you did something, provide a URL that proves it.

Ship it

Nothing is real until it's being used by a real user. This doesn't mean you make a prototype in the morning and blog about it in the evening. It means you find one person you believe your product will help and try to get them to use it.

Do it with style

• e675f89...a7822d3 master -> master (forced update)

1. Create a local branch where master belongs.

   git checkout -b fixmaster e675f89

a. If someone pushed to master between the last time you pulled and now you'll need to go to github to get the full hash. Go to https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>/commit/e675f89 and it'll have the full hash on the page.

`git fetch origin <full hash of e675f89>`

git checkout -b fixmaster e675f89
