@kyleshevlin Hypothetically have you considered working as a contractor? W2 or 1099. I burnt out after my first 2 years of full-time work. Moving to contract let me have more free time to pursue other interests, still make nice $$$, and have a concrete "end date" to look forward to
English
@GergelyOrosz @DevKiper Yep, pretty much exactly that, and still diving in to code for various fixes & improvements, especially “non-backlog” stuff
English
@DevKiper What do they do? I assume the usual stuff a Staff eng or Principal eng does: more on the high-level stuff, but still being involved with the team to some extent; mentoring, code reviews, feedback etc?
English
Why does it feel that the concept of "architect" is avoided across most Big Tech and startups?
The places I observed this role are orgs that feel more "traditional" & definitely hierarchical.
Is this just perception? Or reality? Do these roles exist with empowered eng teams?

@AdamRackis Ok but this stuff is actually pretty great for endurance sports lol

@thealexkates @focusotter I started using an app, Fitbod, which has been really helpful in that I don’t have to think about the workout planning and it’s good at mixing things up. Also easy to say what equipment you have available
English
Question for #fitdevs
Do you ever get bored with your workout routines or meal prep?
How do you keep things from becoming stale?

Get your cameras ready, there will be some PRIME FUCKERY on the streets of Seattle tomorrow!
Seattle Weather Blog@KSeattleWeather
❄️MODERATE SNOW EVENT POSSIBLE TOMORROW AM ❄️ 2-4” of snow is possible from Sea-Tac to Everett tomorrow morning—beginning around midnight & continuing through 10 am. Lower elevations of Seattle will probably pick up 2”, with higher totals on hills & north/east of the city

@AdamRackis Lol i just wrote a bunch of “do not change import order tests will break” comments the other day 🤦🏻♂️

I've used some gnarly shit over the years, from webpack 2 to Ember 2.12 without the cli. I've shipped C++ at multiple big tech co's, and I once wrote a rudimentary GraphQL client in Swift.
But getting Jest mocks to work predictably at scale is the hardest thing I've ever done.

New rule: you don’t get to complain about web dev churn in my mentions until you waste an afternoon stringing together a fucking Gulp pipeline.
Vite has made me never, ever think about bundlers and that’s just one small way this stuff is finally getting better.

@paul_griffiths I’m sorry you missed the best quote of that article…
“While sleeping, Johnson is hooked up to a machine that counts the number of nighttime erections. “
English
Tech mogul Bryan Johnson, 45, ‘spends $2m per year to get 18-year-old body’
“His goal is to eventually have all of his major organs — including his brain, liver, kidneys, teeth, skin, hair, penis and rectum — functioning as they were in his late teens.”
