Ah yes, was considering this. But (a) stupid laws with rental properties and (b) aren't tenants a pain in the ass, much bigger than your average tech team lead?

I have almost two decades of experience. I'm approaching 40 years old, I have a family. Sure, I might sound stubborn, but I don't have the time to study 3 months for the nuances of DFS algorithms, or grinding leetcode. The intervi

I know what I want, but I'm afraid that it's not possible to achieve this. I want full autonomy (as much as possible) over my time and the kind of work I do, while still making at least the same amount of money I make now. So it w

I'm trying. The problem, as I mentioned, is that I'm squeezed by the end of the working day, so I barely have time to work on my side project

Thanks. Is freelancing really that different? I keep hearing opinion for both sides ranging from "freelancing is truly different" to "freelancing is corporate/office job in disguise".
