currently working on transflux: agent driven development for clojure(script).
It's been life changing to combat my back pain, feel tired in the evening, shift around regularly, grab something to drink etc.
Stretching.
Especially the hamstrings and upper body given the long hours on the keyboard.
They can both be combined easily and are also a great fit for hammock driven development.
Now, I'm not a doctor, but my understanding is that most vitamin d can't be absorbed through the intake of pills.
The solution is to expose yourself to 15min sunlight daily, preferably with short sleeves and pants so you have more skin surface to absorb it.
On the plus side, it's cheaper and you get some fresh air!
Having said that, it should always be the CEOs and senior managements responsibility to do their due diligence to evaluate any service their business depends on so heavily and regularly renegotiate.
There's a good reason a Apple, Snap, Netflix etc. are using both Google and Amazon's cloud services to be in a position to leverage their relationship to negotiate better deals and not be dependent on a single provider.

Offer to implement a feature for free or meaningfully contribute to one of their open source projects to demonstrate you have the technical chops to be a productive member of their team.
Also, besides technical skills, you have to be a good cultural fit. Make sure you do your homework what they are looking for in candidates more generally.
I don't think it's so much about a specific age, but to help stimulate a kid's imagination what's possible with a general purpose programming language.

Don't be discouraged if there's an existing solution as you are likely to end up in a very different place from where you started.
Having said that, the specific number is less relevant and it's more about putting things into perspective.
If you believe you won't live past 80, 40 is half of your life and you may think it's too late to start something new. However, if you up the number to 130, then 40 seems like just the beginning.
Optimize for the long haul, never take shortcuts.
Your goal is to keep mind, body and soul in balance - everything else will work itself out and not worth worrying about.
I'm 39 and plan for a life span of at least 130 but try to live every day like I'm going to die tomorrow - context matters and helps bring perspective.

Alternatively, if it's video, you could also upload it to YouTube as unlisted and serve it embedded in your page.
We could provide better recommendations if you share more details what the type of data is and how it's intended to be used.
- add a message to the start script encouraging users to sign up for a mailing list if they want to receive updates and hope it shows up in the logs
- generalize the ability to auto-update a public docker image as a service

Full disclosure: I'm maintaining the image.

Pending the results of the investigation, we anticipate returning to flight as early as the November timeframe.
Can you elaborate on your roadmap and what parts of the stack - if any - you are planning on open sourcing?
Thanks!
Also, I'd suggest you also try to understand why people are asking you to do certain things and if you have a better way of accomplishing the same goal, try to explain it.
I personally have strong opinions, but I've learned that there is not one true way of doing something, but it's all about tradeoffs. Focusing on tradeoffs usually makes for more productive conversation.
Good luck with your project!
I did notice there's definitely a very long tail of stories that get little attention.
Feel free to play with it and provide some feedback -
If you are just starting out and are focusing on web development, I'd recommend JavaScript since all you need to get going is a browser and a text editor.
Some people thrive under pressure and are able to produce their best results. It sounds like you're enjoying such situations so I encourage you to find a role at your current employer or elsewhere that values it - maybe a DevOps role where you are responsible for running a mission critical service might be a good fit.
The device maintains a steady two to eight degrees for 30 days. It works by heating ammonia and water to create ammonia vapours, which are then released into its main chamber when cooling is needed.
I noticed there's a disproportionate number of Australian owners. Any insight why that is?
This is still a pretty quick hack at the moment, but I've enjoyed using it over the past few weeks.
What I'm focused on at the moment is playing with alerts when a story starts trending. I really enjoy knowing about the latest topics but would like to avoid excessively refreshing the page :)
I'd recommend reconnecting with the 10 engineers who already left to see if they can help you line up a new gig. Once you have an option, you can have a conversation with your CEO and try to negotiate a better offer that would convince you to stay. If he fails to do so, he at least had a chance and you will find out quickly how much you are worth to him.
Good luck!
