The issue for me has been that while that advice is easy to hand out and to some degree I agree with it, it doesn’t say anything about how to reach that point of acceptance.
I’ve tried a lot of things to alleviate these panic attacks, and that’s as successful as I’ve been so far.
The answer: meditation and medication.
I visited a psychiatrist this year after a particularly difficult time and got diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. The doctor put me on a program where I started with natural alternatives, I was hesitant to try medication. But eventually, once it was clear that the natural remedies were not working, I put my reservations aside and tried the medication the doctor prescribed. And lo and behold, it’s actually helped. I don’t get the panic attacks as often and when I do they are not as bad.
There is only so much that medication will do for you however. My psychiatrist recommended I a read a book called “10 percent happier”, and this has helped become more aware about what goes on in my mind and what my body is trying to tell me.
P.S. - this has worked for me YMMV.
Right now, it’s not a good look for Spotify imho.
Check out any relatively young startup unable to pay FAANG salaries and you’ll find people who are there because they actually care about the work. You’ll also find people who are there purely for the potential upside when/if the company exists.
I think what you’re really trying to ask is: Are we all destined to end up jaded by the tech industry and in turn end up trying to maximize our salaries in order to get out as quickly as possible?
So far the only place where I have seen most of the employees give a damn are companies that hire mostly senior people, that pay above market and that are fully bootstrapped, so they don’t offer stock/options.
Once you reach a “senior role”, you’re going to be getting compensated well enough that slaving to squeeze a little extra money every year is just not a great return on that investment. So you either show up and just do work that you’re happy with and find fulfilling or you leave and build your thing.
Alright, so Apple finally shipped their privacy “nutrition labels” on iOS and I’ve been checking the few apps that I have installed.I checked Spotify’s and was surprised to see that under “Data Used to Track You”, they have “Browsing History” as something they have access to.According to the links that Apple has put at the top so users understand what this all means, Spotify actually has access...
Regardless, I don’t get why anyone uses Baremetrics, your dashboard is slow as shit and looks like your customer service is equally shit.
1. App quality screening
2. App promotion/distribution
3. In app purchasing
Ask any reasonable dev if they are willing to foot a fixed cost to get their app screened, a fixed cost per app download (bandwidth), and variable cost to get their app promoted in the store (not everyone needs this) and they would agree. What pisses people off is Apple’s entitlement to the revenue of a company when there is no value add from Apple after the customer has gotten the app. So Apple is using their monopoly to force #3 on developers at no less than 30% of revenue.
