Question: does CodeApprove place related files in closer proximity during review? I would _love_ to have a class and its test next to each other instead of sorted alphabetically. I'm tired of jumping around all over the place, trying t

Yes, and … “Calories in” is half. “Calories out” (the amount you burn) is the other half. Having been on the “nothing but diet” train for long windows of my life I can confidently say that if you don’t pair the former and latter, you’ll end

I find this to be an incredibly well-balanced and mature measure of one's self. You should be proud that you were able to reach this level of self-reflection and clarity. Many people never get there, so kudos to you.

If anyone from JetPens is reading this(?) - would love to hear about the effects of this article ending up on HN today. Why? Because I'm about to drop ~$40 on pens as a result of the post, and discussion here. Echoing other people&#x27

It's funny how fast and profoundly "perspective" will hit you. When I was a young programmer I always dreamed of that promotion and comp adjustment. Constantly looking for that next step. That's not inherently bad, per s

I really appreciate this comment. Thank you for framing it this way, sincerely. Doing the work is hard. Putting yourself out there in a vulnerable state and hoping for the best is almost AS difficult. So, the best of luck to the OP. Adapt a

Did not expect to see this show up on HN today (or ever for that matter). In any case, I wrote the original code for Thredded and it's since had the stewardship taken on by two very smart and capable gentlemen named Gleb and Tim. In re
