hottake: If I ever am in a position to hire someone and they have a gap in their resume and it states they took time off to take care of themselves or someone else. I would see that as super healthy and a sign of a strong person.

Like therapy, this needs to be normalized as okay

Companies that are going to be RTO first instead of remote first will suffer the most in the long run. top talent will leave, because free snackfrices in the office aren't worth the sacrifices of commute. Most people realize that time is more valuable than money.

Doing my bible in a year. I read across the part where God changes the name of Abram and Sarai. I usually just read this part and was like "neat, God renaming a person" but today I decided to look a little further. Turns out, God added the hebrew letter Hey to each of them.

Doing bible in a year, at the part where God runs a complex query:

delete from users table where id not in (noahFamilyIDs);

Just a reminder, life isn't a given so take it as precious, a gift and don't give up and always strive to refactor yourself. Even if 1% a day.

I make a dollar, my employees make a dime. That's why I poop on company time.

Why do programmers prefer dark mode? Because light attracts bugs.

I got into programming through Pokemon. Specifically Pokemon Netbattle. I hosted a server and loved being able to write scripts. Then I tried to learn VB and it was the worse. What I'm trying to say, is sometimes you got to try em all, then catch your exceptions (vb, ruby).

I don't code in php, but sometimes I long for the days when websites were just kindergarten crafts with jquery and html with marquee html tags possibly with index.php. Now it's all six grade science fair, and oh look, my graphQL requests are so min, and my pubsub will sink your battleship in a queue
