If I may be so bold, the fallacy here is of time. Dare I say, you are already surrounded by friends, and not noticing it. It seems like you measure "friendship" not by the time spent with them when you go to events or in school, b

There are two books on the issue by a guy called Steven Pressfield, "The War of Art" and "Do the Work". I've read the latter and it's good. He talks about how resistance strengthens the closer you get to ending

Don't know about "ideal" but YC have a video where Michael Siebel talks about the dev cycle they had at Twitch. Before they applied it, he says, they wrote lots of redundant code and also get stuck on stuff that didn't m

I'll say something that sounds really unhelpful until one day it makes sense. You don't really choose the process, the process chooses you. You can't make yourself 'enjoy the process' for something that doesn't

I used to be a big fan of LinkedIn. I've posted, here and elsewhere, expressing these views. But some of the value LinkedIn used to offer is definitely eroding. The feeds have become really terrible. This wasn't always the case. B

For anyone saying "I definitely won't get in" here's a counterpoint that has little to do with whether your application succeeds or not: Do it for yourself, not for the approval. I found that filling in the application,

From everything you've described, it seems the company is structurally built so that you would be on a need-to-know basis. I'm going to use the analogy of horse blinders: processes around teams have been built so that ICs would fo

But that's the thing: I wasn't looking for this, and even having found it, I won't bother looking at "the competition". In my mind I don't even see "missing features" because I have zero awareness of

The label, like any label, is a tool, it's not who you are. It might be a good tool for you to better understand yourself (your struggles, your preferences), but still not be a great tool for others to understand and communicate with y

I'm sorry you feel so scared. Even if the fears aren't real, they feel real, and our body responds to them as if they were real. So your fears may be irrational, but the pain is very real. I think the first thing worth saying is t

According to the latest Stackoverflow developer survey, 40% of developers use React, well above any other web framework. (42% for "professional developers"). It doesn't answer to your question, but it does answer to mine on t

I'm surprised no one has pointed the obvious, which is using chatGPT as a coding buddy. I've done pair programming with developers who were much more capable than I was, so can compare the experience, and I have to say - it works

There was a system like that. Roll up, roll up, I'll treat you to a story: It all started in 1957, with the Sputnik. The US was entirely taken by surprise. The belief that the Russians were way ahead instigated an internal crisis, whic

My perspective here is shaped by two things: One, my kids are a little older than yours (so I've seen a little further ahead), and the experience to have changed up my career not through promotions but through upskilling. Prioritize sp

I use it when I'm writing code. Grandiose, large-scale automation has to start with a simple system that just works and is miles better than what it is replacing. To shrug off how AI changes the act of coding is, in my mind, to miss ev

Honestly, I feel that every discussion of this sort should have at least one Memento Mori comment. I don't know what to say to your situation, because we're different people. But I just always had a strong sense that life is too
