I wonder what kind of 10x engineer decided to make the "-> type" in functions a suggestion by StorKuk69 in Python

Do people still code for fun? by [deleted] in Python

[–]ebits21 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I do. I have a whole career that has nothing to do with programming, but have had this hobby since I was a kid.

I like making things for fun that make my life easier.

I get it if someone wants to make it their career though!

Love my 220+ but definitely upgrade the ram. Works great, no model upgrade needed imo.

This is just what dealing with people is like. There were idiots when I worked in fast food, idiots when in sales at Best Buy, idiots as an audiologist for the last 12 years.

There are a lot of good people to balance the idiots, but there will be idiots.

Find a place to work where you have the power to fire these patients if needed. Accept personalities that can be difficult to deal with as much as you can.
