IMO I would have agreed with this statement 2 months ago but now it’s clear AI is already much better at reviewing and even testing code (via spinning up simulators, etc) much better than we can. We’re already using AI’s outputs in production and not writing much code these days.
React 18 was released in March 2022 though. It’s been over 2 years, not 3 weeks. I’ve also actually thought the React team is pretty careful about breaking changes. Their 19 breaking changes doc is mostly about removing already-deprecated APIs.
Occasionally i've stumbled upon some neat tool or beautiful software and i'm like, wow - who's behind this? And then I realize it's these two folks. Their approach is so surprising and inspiring, thanks for putting out some cool stuff into the world!
I think their philosophy / research is in understanding how to build modern software that is more resilient. So from that research/exploration standpoint it makes sense to me they would go that route instead of using older tech
100% agree with this, especially the part about slowing down code reviews. Don’t be condescending but give your opinion directly, asking if it makes sense. I personally like “what do you think about renaming this… was thinking because…”
But having a monitor on in the dark, even if I use flux/night vision and even with low brightness physically hurts my eyes compared to just using dark mode on my apps.
He should write a book on moderating online communities.
Not joking, we are trying to build a large online community now and I would love to pick his brain on balancing incentives, encouraging curiosity, having equanimity, and all kinds of aspects in “practical sociology”.
I think his in-the-trenches experience would benefit many people trying to build and maintain healthy online communities.
+1000 on this. When I was younger I would work for my employer on the weekends/late nights to try to get ahead. Did that for so many years. I only gave myself a little bit of free time for myself on the weekend.
I _never_ thought I would burnout. “If you enjoy work, work life balance doesn’t matter” I would think to myself. But the point above about “it will take longer, but it will happen” is absolutely correct.
I am now burned out, 13 years later. I’m now going through the process of changing how I think about work-life-balance.
Find a passion outside of work. Think about something that is meaningful to you or some hobby you want to try.
Plan activities with your friends ahead of time - hikes, going to restaurants, just hanging out. It gives you something to look forward to on the weekends.
