How did so many people find out about your app?

Well..there goes my dream of owning one. Haha, jk, would be awesome to setup a small community theater though

First Love?! Haha, jk.

I'm currently re-studying them just bc I'm interview prepping. I wonder if whiteboarding for DS/Algo is gonna be a thing of the past too though.

I would imagine there's certainly new DS/Algos in progress to aide ML training efficiency

My 2012 Air is still my main computer. Started regressing around 2018. Was slow for a while until I patched it with Monterey. Ventura is running even better. Still tough for dev (especially iOS dev)..but it's certainly salvageable. Hoping to buy a new pro within next year

You should be a comedy writer

Thank you for this. The last month has been scary as a dev. Not necessarily bc of employment outcome, but just philosophy of why we do what we do

VR has always been a gimmick. New expensive headsets haven't done much imho

I let marijuana destroy my life. For about a year, I experienced all the benefits ppl use it for. Then all of a sudden I would get panic attacks and full-on psychosis. I would not wish these episodes on my worst enemy.

The smell of it is so ubiquitous now that it's legal and it's a great deal of anxiety for someone like me.

I acknowledge its benefits and that I'm probably a rare case. But it is disturbing to me how mainstream it's become. Certainly..some ppl will face the same repercussions I went through and I don't want that to happen.

I still think it should be controlled medically and not as available as lotto tickets

Anyone here actually find something that works for their anxiety?

I left a very toxic job where I was the only dev 11 months ago. Kinda been on sabbatical and living off savings.

I've done several other things outside of dev (farming, art modeling, rideshare and deliveries, clinical trial, retail, and am actually working as a dishwasher tonight)

Harsh reality has set in that I need to return to work though.

The thing is...for most people there's not much you can do that will even let you make close to half of what you'd make in tech.

I also found that I was stressing myself out at minimum wage jobs too (not even close to as bad as tech).

So I kinda concluded that you should make as much as you can if you're gonna be stressed (to an extent of course).

I don't have family or any big payments, debt. I live below my means. Just turned 30 and one thing I'm considering is working for next decade in tech and investing everything to retire in early 40s

Vt pays you 10k to mv there?

I've found that I've incidentally been doing this and am already planning on continuing the pattern.

I've had some shame about not making most of my past year off though. My entrepreneurial ideas haven't taken off, I didn't quite cut it with freelancing, and I honestly didn't rest that much (just spent time worrying about $).

All learning though, I now have an idea of how much I'll need to actually feel free next time.

Any other insights though? Thanks!

Same boat here. Sadly, I feel like most ppl on tech are very cynical/depressed. It's often unhealthy imo. I try to avoid comments on tech sites

Impressive! How long did it take to write. You seem to have a ton of integrations?
