So you admit you had support. What about the people who don't?
As someone with lots of weird quirks, and who is very likely on the autism spectrum, working from home may have literally saved my career.
what would you say is big bucks?
If you expose yourself to macro-harms... you tend to... die.
We don't really have it good though, simply because the universe doesn't work like that. There's no such thing as a free lunch and you're paying a price for all this "goodness".
The difference is: you can understand a drunk driver, you can arrest them, and possibly feel some sense of "closure".
What are you gonna do when a car goes rogue and murders somebody?
That's not where health is though...
Health is balance.
Leaving home at 18 is really mostly an american thing.
Go to a place like Italy or India or Pakistan and you'll find 30+ year olds living with their parents and it's no big deal at all.
29 here, living at home. I do have somewhat of a career though.
I Honestly don't know when I'll leave. I have the skills to live alone, but my self-esteem is so low and my social life so limited that it gets really scary to leave.
These types of books are made to sell, bro, not to be completely truthful.
You got duped.
Sleep is in there, trust me. I'm 29 and look 40.
>When you're writing a library
99% of developers are working in boring business software with 2-3 other developers.
99% of codebases will be touched by maybe a dozen developers in its entire lifetime.
It's a good point though. Who decides what "one reason to change" is? a 10-line method could easily have hundreds of reasons to change.
It's called being young. They're emotional and inexperienced.
50 years ago this used to be normal. Now for some reason everybody expects perfection out of everybody at all times.
Insanity.
Mental health is waaay more important than anything you could ever possibly learn in school.
Gold is a real thing that has value though. Bitcoin literally stops existing if you stop believing in it.
Lol What??! You think Tyson went out and looked for a trainer?
No. He just happened to be an explosive beast who could knock out grown men at age 13.
No, that's not the argument. That argument is that the global bitcoin network is slow as shit, and it would take 5 entire months just to process 140 million US citizens' taxes. Meaning that it's not really viable, unless some technological breakthrough happens.
Hum... maybe it's because they have so much technical expertise that they are able to have insights into other things?
Technical knowledge is still very important, and it's the basic foundation of being a software engineer, and maaaaannyyyyyy people out there don't even know the basics.
>2. Then there's the geopolitical aspect. Is it fair to impose sanctions on Iran.
Yeah. Nobody else should be allowed to have nukes, or else the U.S. is gonna take his ball and go home.
>the people in my feed in serious need of a wellness check.
Like, uuh, the president of the United States?
dangerously thin hahahha omg
Is it really worth it to have your peace disturbed by hundreds of annoying little helicopters just so you can have a panini sandwich delivered in 2 minutes instead of 10?
Ugh.
10x developers are usually people who have the lucky combination of:
-Having a close family member who understands computers
-Programming since 9 years old
-Naturally high IQ
-Decent emotional development and communication skills
"Old" in what sense though? In the style/fashion sense?
People are godamn hopeless.
I just saw a guy trying to argue that writing functional-style Java is the "new" way to write Java, and that not using functional interfaces means you're writing "old" style code.
Lmao no it doesn't.
Your salary is simply the amount of money you have convinced a company to pay you. You could waste 3 years making 100k a year only to deliver a failed project that resulted in 0 revenue.
Are they not? What's the sole purpose of a car other than to go from point A to point B?
It's only meddling if you're way too stressed out by trying to keep up with capitalism.
If you live a simple life without too much stress then it's not really meddling.
Any decently competent technical leader can tell if a developer is being productive or not. It's stupid to waste time trying to measure something that is virtually unmeasurable.
