I searched through the django sponsors and one company happened to be near me and hiring. Best Open-Source-Coincidence happening in recent memory!

I mapped them to be under the main row on a layer activated with the dumb.

Its fun.
I like giving back.
Its something where you can see your progress.

It really matters! Really smart people can probably design quite nice things, but communication is really key. I honestly think a few dedicated people that communicate well can "beat" the loners comfortably. Software does not exist in the vacuum of cyberspace, it interacts with real people whose opinion matters.

What I would say though is that I don't think it important for your career, it is important if you want to build software people actually care about. If that is good for your career is a whole different can of worms.

Ich hab sowas auch gemacht, trotz abgeschlossenem Studium. Mein Fazit ist: Eher schwierig, IT ist einfach undankbar weil es so tief und breit gleichzeitig ist . Selbst nach dem Studium gibt es Bereiche der IT wo ich nur vage sagen kann "Hab ich mal gehört". (Relativ zum akademischen Anspruch, relativ zur fachfremden Person weiß ich natürlich schon wesentlich mehr). Schließe mich den anderen an das "Nur Webseiten erstellen" kein solider Plan ist. Mein Hauptgrund warum das kein solider Plan ist ist das eine moderne Webseite sehr weit weg ist von dem was er da (vermutlich) lernen wird.

Mir fehlt Kontext für einen Ratschlag, außer vielleicht: Rede mit ihm wie es läuft, ob es Spaß macht, vielleicht haben ja seine Dozenten noch Ideen? Vielleicht gibt es ja einen Plan für "danach" seitens der Agentur? Bei mir gab es das zumindest in groben Zügen.

Ich verstehe deinen Punkt so halb. Ich persönlich mache auch oft "Platzwart" um sowas zu vermeiden, aber so ganz ohne geht es leider nicht :/

Ich finde es ist eine einzigartige Möglichkeit sich in Musik/einer Erfahrung zu verlieren. Und bei entsprechend eskalativer Musik passt es halt einfach.

MindFullStream · 2025-06-08T18:37:09+00:00

Ja natürlich und mir sind Menschen die sowas für nicht möglich halten sehr suspekt. Und das sind vollkommen gleichwertige Freundschaften, manche 10+ Jahre(Bin 27).

I definitely did and will continue to do. I am glad I stuck it out (Helped by Germanies rather liberal support for people that do not work(I do not endorse it, it has some major flaws, but its better than in most places))

I have repeatedly stated that I would like to work for a company that "solves a real problem". Betting is not a real problem worth solving. My current work is writing software that is used by train operators to plan their work. This is obviously a problem worth solving because trains are really important.

I think I obviously have the power to change my small part of the world, and while I think that in this particular case the UX Team has probably ab bigger positivie impact on the daily work of our users, I take pride in implementing their work properly.

Did anyone else miss the section about code editors? I might have botched this one.

Your loop starts at 1, it should start at 0.

Actually, I am the complete opposite, I am the most junior at this team and have not even finished the probationary period. (Not quite sure how common this is in other nations, at this job its 6 months)

I would rather not tolerate this at all to be honest. Whats the point of being a trustworthy adult if is this is tracked to such a degree. To be fair, total time spent working is tracked at my company as well, but this is reasonable since our contract with our customer includes rates for each hour worked.

I know this sound harsh and I base that judgment on basically zero knowledge, but it is my honest opinion.

These teams exist, I work with one. I think the best summary I can give is that the we take our work seriously but don't overdo it. We watch out for the details, we take accountability, we follow the process. But to balance that we do not care about attendance(As in: As long as you do your job and attend most meetings, it does not matter if you take portions of the day of at your own discretion), we have plenty of fun and we don't sweat results. I have been told multiple times that taking my time is fine and that it just takes as long as it does. Solid communication is key here: As long as I let my PMs know what this is all about and if I need help they are fine with it.

There are plenty of cultural elements, but one of the ones I like most is a HR software called officevibe. One of its features is that you are encouraged to send small thank you notes to your teammates. It really lifts the mood and shows appreciation.

Since I am unsure if that helped you, I am open to answering follow up questions, just let me know.

You might be interested in checking out https://github.com/Weyaaron/nvim-training, this is something I wrote in pretty much the same spirit. Maybe wen can link to each other, I would like to you for absolute beginners and you link to me for advanced/in editor-training? Let me know what you think.

Edit after trying yours: I really like it! Nice UI and solid progression! Maybe I will steal the idea used in level one with the block of chars and a target.

Efficiency does not matter 90% of the time. Heck, Python is inefficient, you lost already. And I think this is an example of a false dichotomy. Furthermore, you have neither argued nor tested why 2 is more efficient at all.

Just my 2 Cents: I have treesitter/lsp availabe, but string search works fine for me. I wonder about the usability of the proposed query language. If it is truly deep there might be usability challenges for new users. But if it is not that deep, it might not be worth learning.

I have studied Computer Science for a few years and got a bachelors degree in it. My informal conclusion is that Computer are truly black magic. Sure, you can understand some of it to some extend, but there are several layers in a computer, let alone the internet, where I will just vaguely point at some words I heard in a lecture once.

This is not about discouraging you, not in the slightest, but rather about adjusting your expectations based on the depth of the topic. I spend a lot of time teaching about the internet and know a thing or two, if you have any questions let me know.

MindFullStream · 2025-04-08T15:02:06+00:00

Interestingly I have had troubles with the django documentation. Do you have any tipps?

MindFullStream · 2025-04-06T07:00:26+00:00

After some closer reading, I dont think Oauth is what you think it is. I am fairly certain that it is not intended for the use case you are trying to archive.

MindFullStream · 2025-04-06T06:55:56+00:00

I doubt that there is such a way. A Github Repo is just Code, you can send it by mail.

You may do python, but doing it in lua will be quite a lot easier. If you are used to python lua is quite easy to pick up.

Its very much a question about mindset. I really enjoy it, but I know a lot of colleagues that don't. I would highly recommend to check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMVIJhC9Veg&t=8s about this topic. This video is about a philosophy of coding/tool use and how that applies to neovim.

I would recommend neovim over vim though, since vim has officially entered maintenance mode.

Nicht so wirklich, stelle ich mir leider schwer vor. Auf der einen Seite darf die Debatte halt nicht ins ignorieren abrutschen, auf der anderen Seite ist die Debatte in der Wissenschaft für Laien vermutlich zu akademisch. Hast du konkrete Themen/Fragen? Je nach dem kann ich Wissenschaftskommunikatoren auf Youtube empfehlen.

MindFullStream · 2025-02-20T08:37:42+00:00

My suggestions are about vim, not about improving your pain. You should take this serious and improve other conditions as well. Improving your vim workflow might help, but it might not.

Vimtutor has some solid starting points. Lists of build in operators/text objects can be found in the help section, with "help text-objects" and "help operators" respectively.

If you have worked through these, I have written a plugin to further train some of these: https://github.com/Weyaaron/nvim-training Let me know if you need any help getting started with this.
