    For me it’s like, you have a lot of stuff to do but you could play sudoku first. 3 sudoku games later, Ok let’s get started. I should get a drink first. Let me play another game of sadoku to resettle my mind. Ok let’s get started. Ok reading my email, let’s craft a response. Wife comes in and asks me to watch the kid for a min. Ok back to work, but let me check on my idle game real quick. 45 mins later.ok let’s get started, on that email response I have 5 mins before a meeting I scheduled perfect. 10 mins later, sorry I’m late got caught up on something. Let’s look into this random issue someone is having they brought up in the last meeting I have 20 mins before my next meeting perfect. 35 mins later I join meeting. 2 hours left in the day let’s work on what I needed to do. Normal time off comes up wife starts asking me when I’ll be done every 10 mins for the next hour.





  • I started my career in Java and transitioned to c# a few years in and c# is much better imo, especially now that .Net can be run in Linux.

    I run a team for a large project (13 deployable components apis/ Windows services/ desktop applications/ websites/mobile) that has mix of vb.net/c# .net framework 4.8 and .net 6 soon to be 8 with angular for Web and wpf for desktop. Slowly but surely working to kill off our legacy code and consolidate.

    Some of the older vb code (that existed long before I joined the project let alone became the lead dev) is so bad that a bug fix for nhibernate that stopped silently failing and began throwing exceptions breaks everything if we try to update to a later version. it’s such a tangled mess and I’m probably the only one on my team that could unfuck it(but I didn’t have the time to do it) it’s not even worth fixing even though our version of nhibernate has a CVE with rating of 9/10 (we don’t actually use anything that is affected from the finding thankfully) and are just biding our time till we kill off the offending apps.

    Ohh and I have a new PM that isn’t technical and likes to email me his chat GPT queries and results about technical things.











  • You’re right, I didn’t start using computers before Windows 3.1. I don’t lead a team of developers for software used all over the world and is the largest of it’s kind. I definitely never have developed software on Linux. I’ve also never built my own computer. I surely don’t have a degree in computer science. What is a computer anyways I obviously only have an iPad.
