thanks

Prisma???? no thanks

Can you give some context it how it made you 10x engineer? I'd also like to be one!

I am in very similiar position right now, and I have decided to bite the bullet and drop all non individual contributor responsibilities. I'm not yet sure how it will go but it's my #1 priority to arrange it with Cxx. I know this was supposed to feel like "step up" but it's not who I am. I don't aspire to great managers, I respect people like Carmack. I want to be the best and most productive engineer, that's where I have most fun. If the money is similiar, that's what it's about.

you can copy curl from browser, change https to http and it will work, is that susceptible? The whole react app uses https

sure, but does it need to be disabled? As in, my website will use HTTPS, but HTTP may be still present. Does that open up door for any attack?

I've done all this in past and am familiar with it, but I'd be interested in one-step-after-this thing :)

not at all, but our devops guy ragequit the job and I want to be able to help piece things together if fire emerges, or help the team. Every engineer has some knowledge so together we're able to handle most of it. I want to use this opportunity to learn more.

It's sad that you assume the worst in people.

only slightly and occasionally

good one, anything else?

blogs about scalability, architectures, interviews, post mortems, latest news in databases...

Scala3

When you are thrown or being choked you are unable to focus on anything else than the moment itself. Its extremely liberating and picking both of those activities were detromental for my health

Judo or Brasilian Jiu Jitsu. Any grappling I guess where part of training is deliberate practice and part is kind of competition/sparring.

very cool, what's your tech stack? you seem to be able to build these things quickly and with ease

Awesome work! I've been using scalajs ad mid-sized personal projects and it's been absolute joy to work with. I use https://laminar.dev/ (don't need no react) and to interface with javascript world https://scalablytyped.org/ - although I rarely need to use external libraries

very nice

maybe combine the badly rated projects with trending ideas from https://insightrend.com/ ?

very interesting. I had no idea Feynman felt this way.

1) nope 2) yes, some people from my close proximity say that I learn too much. I feel like I only learn whereas I should be building something. My whole career has been constant nonstop learning and improving

Because it used to be very important part of me, my biggest hobby, biggest passion, and it's over. And I feel like I've been practicing this skill my whole life to get to where I am, and now I find it very difficult to switch to new field. I'd rather be passionate and use my skills to build something meaningful.

Thanks, the first paragraph hits home.

I fear this very, very much. What if I never can regain that passion? I feel like junkie who never can get another high.

I have amazing GF and do martial arts and overall love my life but deep down I feel there's that passion lacking when it comes to coding

Thanks

I'm a bit past the try-new-stack. I have a stack that I'm very productive and happy. I feel like I've finally found what I love to use, am capable of using with huge productivity, but don't feel like using :-)

Sadly I just started new one with thought it will be better (it is, but only slightly)

Thank you, I tried clay modelling. But still I feel tech is my real passion. I wish you all the best with your burnout

I'd want to want to do this :-)

I thought about this, but it seems very priviledged to "complain" about earning lots of money and not enjoying it as if I was 12 when people with real misery and pain are all around.

Thank you, I'll think about it
