I left my small company to go work for a large company since my career has only been in startups and I wanted to see how they do things at a 10k+ employee org. If I end up hating working for large companies I’d consider going back to my smaller company. Not all companies are shitty and not all departures are a burned bridge.

Interesting bunch of takes…

Take a look at Dart+Flutter.

Google just laid off those teams so I doubt this is a good thing to learn if you want something useful in the long-term

Ruby is nearly dead nowadays

Demonstrably false. My career has been in the Ruby/Rails world and I just went through a job hunt where I found tons of Ruby positions

JS itself is used rarely, better consider using TS (however I don’t recommend using them for anything other than web frontend)

Full-stack JS/TS is very popular in the web-dev world.

Go is a great language

I disagree, but this is 100% a personal opinion of mine 😄

What the hell are you talking about?

“You disagree with me so therefore you’re an AI bot” sure is a take…

Oh really? I never felt like that was convincing in any way especially since lot of the stuff in that blog is just uninformed (for example you don’t have to pay taxes in many jurisdictions until you hit a certain threshold)

I’m not gonna try to convince you to use Kagi, but I just don’t feel like that blog is full of good reasons not to.

What have you heard and where? I’ve not seen anything that indicates either of those things

Thanks for this; I signed up because of your comment

How many times do you plan to post this same damn comment?

Try some hex and counter war games.

Butt

• Rock climbing (mostly trad, but I’ll climb sport sometimes)
• teaching myself Japanese
• video games on occasion

hopefully it will teach you a lesson.

LOL, come on.

Choose technology because it’s the right fit for the job, not because it’s your favorite.

100000%

I know lowtax was a moron but calling FYAD rational is really dumb

“ruby is hard to read” is a really strange take…

Imagine defending hitting kids…

I don’t get that because I’m in a billion meetings, have to conduct interviews, help the more Jr folks on my team etc. It’s not that I’m bad at time management

You get 2-3 hours of deep work time EVERY DAY? I’m lucky to get that once a week.

I do think Lemmy should have the ability to personally block a whole server as well as just users and communities.

I long for the day.

IMO Reddit’s risk is paying off. Lemmy isn’t a replacement and tons of people are still using it daily.
