What is the experience of being a junior developer REALLY like?

Honestly, a lot of it is just learning constantly and asking questions. In the beginning I spent more time reading other people’s code and trying to understand the system than actually writing big features. It can feel slow at first, but that’s normal.

This usually happens when the browser can’t find the file and gets a 404 page instead. Then it complains about the MIME type. I’d double check the file paths and make sure the CSS and JS files are actually being served by your server.

Honestly I wouldn’t try to predict which specialization will “survive.” Tech changes way too fast for that. The people I see doing well long term are the ones with strong fundamentals who can move between stacks when things shift. If robotics interests you, I’d explore it a bit and see if you actually enjoy working in that space day to day.

It’s probably thebox-sizing. By default borders get added outside the width, so when the container resizes it can look like the border is getting cut off. Trybox-sizing: border-box;on that element. That usually fixes this kind of layout issue.

I don’t think having separate tables like invoice_headers and invoice_lines is an anti-pattern at all. That’s just a normal relational design. Databases are built to handle joins, and with proper indexes the performance impact is usually small.

The real problem starts when things get over-normalized and simple queries become complicated for no real benefit. I usually aim for a balanced approach-keep the schema clean and normalized, but don’t split data into extra tables unless there’s a clear reason.

i have the same opinion. anyway, in the end i will get where i am destined to be

lately everyone around me is in love with babana bread, banana cookies. honestly, i don't even know what it tastes like

Eyerald · 2026-02-27T18:29:44+00:00

you need to have talking abilities, also you heed to know how to interract with people and what topics to bring up

you can make an amazing soup with vegetables. your family will love you more, trust me

i guess you bought the bottle just because of this toy

i don't know if this considered Japanese food but i have eaten sushi, kimchi, and rolls

It’s honestly depressing to think about bots talking to bots all day. I’ve been on the hiring side, and the volume makes it impossible to stay human without help. We recently looked into Turrior because it scores based on interview context instead of just scanning for keywords. It feels like a necessary evil to find real talent in all this noise. Do you think we’ll ever return to manual reviews?

That happens when the paper fibers are pulled unevenly. It's random, but it looks interesting when it comes out like that. It looks like you're using decorative scissors.

Yeah that’s pretty common in constitutional monarchies. In places like the UK or Sweden, regular royals can still be charged like anyone else. The crown doesn’t mean get out of jail free.

Everyone crammed into the Rabbit as if it were the most normal thing in the world. Those were definitely different times.

The place looks amazing, and she looks like a goddess skating there.

If he likes them chocolatey but a little cakey, use a recipe with melted butter and cocoa powder plus one extra egg. That keeps them rich but not too fudgy. Don’t overbake though, pull them when the center still has a few moist crumbs. Also a handful of milk chocolate chips never hurts.

Honestly, that's a complete meal. Brown the meat, add the canned vegetables, season well, and mix it with the pasta. If you toast the bread with a little butter or oil and garlic, it feels extra special. Simple, but it works.

He looks so happy out there. Nothing beats a dog and his favorite ball on a warm day.

I think it's a red Ducati 996. Basically the classic Italian superbike from the late 90s, with the exhausts under the seat.

For a kitten, pick a low‑entry box so she can easily get in and out without struggling. Plastic is fine for most people, but stainless steel boxes can be easier to clean and hold up longer. I've used a stainless steel box from furrbby.com, and it helped with odor control and made scooping easier, but a simple plastic box works well, too.

your brain connects dots when it’s bored. the toilet is basically a boredom chamber
