That's nearly 2.4 Milwaukees, for the cheese heads.
OMG, I stopped paying for DataGrip and Rider about six months ago and still have full access to them on my work PC for daily use. My personal Mac, though, immediately flagged the expired license once it was up. I actually thought it was some kind of bug on my work setup that let me keep using Rider, DataGrip, and IntelliJ, but I guess it’s just how it’s designed to work if you stay on the last paid version?
Makes me wonder if there's even smaller building blocks of the universe. Smaller than Photons, Gluons, Neutrinos, Electrons, Quarks and we just can't 'zoom in' enough to know about them.
> If you start working out 3x a week, you will continue doing this and be physically fit. If you drink alcohol 3x a week, you will continue to do this and become wrinkled and grumpy.
What about working out 3x a week and drinking alcohol 3x a week? Potentially that could be a sweet spot for sociability and activity. Compared to doing neither 3x a week, what do you think would be better?
Both drinking and exercise mean different things to different people. Running a 10k 3x a week with a glass of wine after would be fine. Blacking out 3x a week off cheap vodka while riding the stationary bike would be a different story.
Agreed - you have a good perspective in a sea of internet pessimism.
Chat GPT is a game changer for a lot of my work. I make it write stored procedures in MS SQL along with the calling code in .NET, C#, and Dapper.
The generated code will likely have a few small issues, but it still makes me way more productive. It allows me to work ~10 hours a week less and enjoy my life.
Do you hire White Sox fans?
What if Fungi were the key to our technological advancement? If we could make fungal computers we could become a bio-technical race like Species 8472 in Star Trek Voyager Season 3 Episode 26.
A 4D chess move would be 12 1-word game saves on an old GameBoy game cartridge that is hidden amongst hundreds of other GameBoy cartridges.
>Technical lead with over 10 years experience. I often get praises during interviews, but never an offer.
If you have 10 years tech lead experience I assume you are applying for 200k+ base salary positions. The competition for these staff/lead roles is steeper, especially for remote roles during a recession.
Take a couple interviews for less senior positions and knock them outta the park, get your confidence back. Probably won't require too much prep and will be low stress if the job is in your stack.
Getting an offer feels nice - it's validating, especially in a dry spell.
> No need for code review or consultation, because you've already decided that the Clean Code Way is the right way and therefore there isn't anything to discuss.
I liken the CC movement to religion - it has good intentions, but when taken too far you end up with a holier-than-thou attitude.
