I’m currently working with a team of a few seniors and the rest mid-levels. I’ve helped get a few juniors hired but they’ve buckled under the pressure after 6 months.

They studied development at school and did great with their classwork but perhaps they thought they knew a lot and ended up realizing that they barely scratched the surface.

Though not required to learn deeper aspects of development, having a team, partner or mentor goes a heck of a long way. It’s like learning the piano. You can hit all the right notes but it doesn’t mean you have musicality.

If that’s how my basement light was set up I definitely wouldn’t close the door to the entrance.

Oddly, it’s not monsters I fear but cockroaches. I guess they’re like tiny little monsters to me.

In another post, the user who didn’t want vaccines said it’s that they did not want to put the comfort of others above their own.

I guess that’s a valid stance but it’s definitely not a view I share.

I’m getting downvoted for being happy? I never said others should become parents but okay.

Totally can relate as a father but there are too many wonderful things about having my son that an infinite amount of panels to describe the joy would not be enough to showcase it.

I agree that it’s impossible not to affect others. Every action has a reaction which I hope sparks something positive from my end at least.

To give some perspective, I received my kidney transplant at 37 shortly after starting dialysis at 36 due to something out of my control. My wife almost passed from stage 3 breast cancer in 2017. I admit I’m biased and don’t want to see others suffer from preventable diseases but do understand that everything has an inherent risk, including vaccines (present though smaller), and it’s up to the player to play their hand as they see fit.

I said as well so I mean you both.

And that’s a weird way to react as well, telling people to touch grass.

A genuine question: What about people who don’t get vaccinated and can potentially spread their diseases? Does that not affect others just like choosing the risk of getting vaccinated?

At first I thought it was dumb but then I took the plunge.

I’m so glad I started the series from Trails in the Sky 1. I’m currently on Cold Steel 2 and it’s been a great time.

Spotify on Tuesday said it anticipates reaching profitability for the full year in 2024, which would mark the company’s first full profitable year since it launched 18 years ago.

My wife and I budget and save over 50% of our salaries. Sometimes our friends think we’re crazy because we “limit our options” by being frugal. I always have to explain back that it’s exactly why we’re saving money because it gives us new options that aren’t available otherwise like buying a home last summer. That only happened through budgeting and saving.

Personally I just have keto bread with like 1 net carb. Love bread and love the fiber.

I listen to TechStuff to fall asleep!

My headphones. I just love listening to music way too much.

“Are you pondering what I’m pondering?”

“Uh, I think so Brain, but this time, you wear the tutu.”

Am inconvenience.
