Yes! I believe Augmented Reality will enhance AI and robot creation. This would be a bold choice, but I don’t I don’t have degree.

I have not developed a deep love for a language yet. Swift has been interesting me, but so has Zig.

This post shows why programming as a career overall sucks. Sure it’s great if you really enjoy programming. However, staying relevant to earn a decent living your entire life is difficult.

Ask HN: How do I become a proactive coder at work?
I feel too reactive with my work. Either waiting for people on what they want changed or handling unexpected bugs. When I’m not waiting on anyone or I understand the issue, I can work a lot and get into a flow state pretty easily. This is when I’m the happiest at work.I’ve been at my current gig for 9 months and they have many applications, some 20 years old. Their corporate IT hierarchy seems...

Listen to your emotions. Don’t attach a word to what you are feeling immediately. Process.
Once you’ve processes, ask yourself if your body language reflects what you desire.
Then try to form words.
Ask HN: Have you thought about leaving programming for the trades?
I’ve been working as a programmer for 10 years and think I’m done with it.I feel like the golden age of being a programmer is gone. With constant learning, AI, and competing in a global market because of remote work, it’s super volatile.Yet my neighbor is an electrician and he has endless clients. He can work 80-90 hours a week if he wants to. He has stable work. He just became a manager and is...

There are advantages at the individual level to understand and communicate with multiple cultures. I would argue it’s more than an increase/decrease in IQ points. Did the individual increase in their free time and income is the only valid output worth measuring in bilingual advantages.

Re:SEC Charges the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints

Devout member of this church my entire life. 2 years ago during covid I finally read most of the history of Joseph Smith. Found out it’s a fraud and left.
For having Jesus Christ in its name, I have a hard time believing Jesus is running the board of this corporation and is suggesting billions be spent in investments instead of billions feeding, clothing, housing, and providing healthcare for those in need.
And don’t tell me about their humanitarian efforts. A fraction of their wealth is used on such endeavors.
End of the day, all their leadership cares about is wanting the whole world to volunteer their free time to the local congregation, pay tithing, and do temple ceremonies. Next time you meet a Mormon, ask them to clearly draw a line to what they do in the temple regularly and why that’s what Jesus wants them to do. You’ll see them hit the cognitive dissonance wall.
Ask HN: Blog style communication with co-workers?
I've been getting into the habit to write 1-10 sentences at the end of my day that attempt to anticipate appropriate responses if someone asks me about work over audio/video the next day. I'll sometimes add links. Ideally I'll have a to do list to start my day.This habit really helps with having a productive morning. I don't really need to think for the first 3-4 hours of work. I can just focus...

No. Is the tool, regardless of the tool, getting the individual closer to achieving what they want? That’s all that matters.
Now, there is something satisfying optimizing everything (Factorio), especially in a group setting.
