Dean Starbuck Bragonier from NoticeAbility with an incredible talk on the real impact of dyslexia especially if not diagnosed early.
Some interesting points made in this talk, Dyslexic thinkers excel at Art, Innovation, Engineering and Architecture. It is also known as the MIT Disease, due to the number of Dyslexic thinkers studying there.
Interesting,could Jesus be considered a character in the book, representing God?
I am purely interested in the Philospophy here. I love your reply with regard to the analogy of a book BTW, really great how you presented your view of a creator.
So are we saying creators are never part of their creation ?
Does that mean AI being created by us humans, can never know we created it, does that mean, that evolution of AI means human intelligence can no longer exist after this point ?
Programming may be your passion, but too much of something will eat you. You need to find balance. Its imperative you find a way to switch off and recharge.
I would suggest joining a hiking club or something you can do at weekends thats different to the daily grind.
Especially don't think about bugs at the weekend.
I would even go for a cycle or a run first thing Saturday morning, then go get a coffee, some breakfast. Invite a friend for coffee.
I think ultimately find another pursuit in addition to development.
More money would help as I have 2 kids and my wife (ex dev) is a stay at home mom, which is by choice.
I guess a change of scene, more people, new people, work on some AWS stuff, new line of business, SEO type stuff, Big data Amazon EMR, Groovy...
My only issue is I invested alot of time in learning all about Azure, and put alot into learning Vue/Webpack ES6, I love this stuff..
So much genuine amazing feedback, thanks so much..
I have been doing this job 20 years now and I think this feeling is more prevalent now.
The combination of family, commute, and sitting at a desk coding is frankly tiring.
I often get up and walk around, and drink water, etc..
I cycle to work often, used to do gym sessions at lunchtime
And that definitely helps..
But sometimes when you are thinking intensely you just zone out...
I used a little poetic license regarding "I wouldn't drive" just to get my point across.
That is impressive, it's like rational rose or visio on the web.. one to bookmark for sure.
I like the idea of a recipe layer on top of this, so you can remix diagrams.
Mindfulness is something that should be practiced.
It's perspective that helps me. After all nothing really matters that much at all....
We are all just passing through.
Maybe I got a little too Zen there... But hey keep busy being happy, move away from negative influences
yeah, Belfast has been tranquil for a long time, some 20 years or more, the media perception always inflated the reality even in the bad old days..
the good thing is, that in the ensuing time, the city has become alot more vibrant, the youthful generation are now not as shackled with the past. Belfast feels fresh, and its a town with a great industrial and innovative past. Its about time!
The OP is now a single income household, and is £400 in the red every month. Also they have just had a kid (big cash drain), so I can't imagine there will be much socialising in the near future. Think they may need to "move to the 'burbs"
London is shocking price wise...I could never contemplate working there although I once did.
I work in Belfast Northern Ireland, earn approx £57k, my spacious detached house with garden and tranquility 20 mins train commute from the office costs around £180K... So there is no financial way I would ever go to London...It seems crazy and illogical to me to work there.. nice place to visit however!
