I did find it quite tough for a lot of years to treat myself, as I would try to save as much as I can to have a safety net. But even now with a safety net in the bank, I still have in the back of my head if I purchase something that is x mortgage payments, and I could save that instead to have in the bank in case I lose my job.
My mortgage is around 6% of my gross, and just under 10% of my net and I feel that's high / stressful to me. I want to get it paid off ASAP.
I'm currently 1 of 3 injections into getting a rabies vaccine and it's basically like every other vaccine I've had. A simple, painless, injection in the arm.
I got it the same time as my first shot of the Hep B vaccine too.
It's a small box, it can sit next to the tele without looking awful, and if I just need to get a controller, that's fine too.
I've never been asked to "grind" leetcode, I've never been asked a leetcode style question at any interview I've had (and I'm in my mid 40s). I've never had any feeling of needing to do leetcode, and as far as I know neither have my friends.
The reason I asked if it was mainly a US thing was because I assume (maybe wrongly) that the majority of HN users are in the US, and this leetcode thing pops up a lot.
Is this a uniquely US thing ?
Odd question, but as a .NET developer myself
Mountaineering, climbing, bouldering, going to gigs, playing pool, running, music festivals, gaming, photography, watching F1, watching NBA, eating out with friends...
I'm not sure what the point of the question was ?
The sliding puzzle is really finicky, have to try multiple times to slide stuff, the top left (back) arrow stopped working altogether until I refreshed the page, which of course takes you back to the original page... The time picker looks awful with the numbers not centrally aligned to the control (they look too high), and it's finnicky to use / same with the date picker.
Awful.
His reasoning was all the big players use it, so we should be too...
It was literally a solution looking for a problem. Which is completely arse backwards.
Has anyone ever actually done this ?
I'll get a better camera, when I'm a better photographer and the camera is actually the limiting factor, but I expect that is very very very far off.
sigh
The lack of features means all the complexity is offloaded to the programmer. Where other languages can take some of the complexity burden off the programmer.
Go isn't simple, it's basic.
That's absurd. The point of my life isn't to maximise my $/hr return to some faceless corporation.
I started reading it, I liked the writing style, it resonated with me. I kept reading till I had finished it.
There, that's the entire justification, I need no more justification than that.
Work lost 5-10 minutes of productivity so I could indulge in reading something ? Sure. That's fine. I'm sure they will survive.
If not, then maybe they should just go out and hire a team of soulless robots.
Didn't want to be seen as just padding my github.
So it mustn't have just been me getting it wrong every time!
If you already have the knowledge to understand the notes in the slides, it's probably pointless to you. If you don't, the slides make no sense at all since nothings explained.
What am I missing here that's so great ?
I sense a theme here.
I do. This sort of attitude is how we have machines more powerful than ever yet everything still seems to run like shit.
I couldn't imagine going back to print statement based debugging. Would be a massive waste of time.
Even if you want to send it to someone and you don't have Excel, Excel will happily open csvs...
