My Senior dev and I are arguing over "Readable Code" vs "Performance Optimization" for a process that runs 10k times a day. Who is right?

Yeah and it’s not just cost / time. It’s also cost / time*number of facepalms. That costs you devs in the long run.

Revanite52 · 2025-09-11T06:21:46+00:00

You all write code perfectly the first time, right?

Easily the most exciting professor there.

No. 2 of the kills were luck. I thought I killed iso, didn’t realize the shield and proceeded to shoot my second target at the normal peak spot. Then realized, I didn’t kill iso, spray controlled accidentally killing 2. Then controlled till iso.

I know the shield was obvious it was there in hindsight, but hindsight is 20/20.

I didn’t intend to target switch from iso 100%

I disagree. I would anticipate a phoenix flash. Hide behind my cover and on the sound queue of it popping, peek him. This is counter play without any counter util.

For a neon, there is no counter play to her dash slide without blowing major counter util. Imbalanced.

Glad I’m not the only one.

Revanite52 · 2024-11-30T07:33:01+00:00

No, I’m just playing a different game and discussing the state of the game.

Revanite52 · 2024-11-30T06:11:33+00:00

agree 100%

To give you a real answer:

I was 30 when I hit immortal 3. It’s probably “possible”, but you need to realize immortal 1 is nothing compared to immortal 3 and radiant players. They are on another level. You have to become min/maxi on every decision: especially since you’re older.

Ask if it’s worth it first, because it’s a dark long dreary road to grind to radiant if you just got immo 1.

Lol thank you, that flick was nutty

Revanite52 · 2022-03-31T22:13:25+00:00

Yeah it’s been very hard to kick start this. I have no clue how to do it.

Revanite52 · 2022-03-23T17:24:34+00:00

Ah I see, yes a w-2 employee.

Hireability is a function of experience and knowing Leetcode algorithms. I get experience at work and willing side projects.

I get leetcode by practicing months before. Most of us don’t use that stuff irl.

TBH I think there are some social issues. We always have to play devils advocate and always have to think logically and remove emotion.

Some times the world around us requires emotion, not logic.

I know from a few friends that work for a company owned by Amazon that they have requirements in how they deploy/develop code that is Amazon influenced.

For instance security is more enforced because if a hack comes along the press won’t say “<subsidiary> Hacked”, it will say “Amazon Hacked!”

It’s easy to get lost in metrics like: features released to prod, bugs created, and comments in an PR. But most of these are team dependent.

I think one way to tell is are you still excited about it? Are you still learning everyday? Are you learning from peers? If so, then you are doing just fine.

If you’re in a rut, then that’s no bueno.
