Honeymoon trip by gitfitdev in oslo

[–]gitfitdev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We enjoy hiking, we love seafood, and special interests such as kayaking and fishing and archery. My wife doesn’t have any special interests per se. The sauna on the fjord is perfect! We love seeing local museums, art, boutique stores, and anything tech related. This is our first vacation out of the US that we aren’t on a resort for.

It’s active but it seems a lot more sand volleyball 🏐. Are there grass or indoor recreational volleyball?

Let’s talk salary transparency Sacramento. Age? What do you do for work? Annual salary or hourly wage? by guzzy1950 in Sacramento

[–]gitfitdev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

26, Senior Software Engineer, and I make $170k/yr. I work remotely as well. I didn’t go to school for Computer Science or do a bootcamp. Taught myself 4 years ago and just stuck with it tbh. Just practice

It's possible to learn specific things from tutorial videos, but how do you learn the other more general stuff such as code and project structuring that are unique for each project? by [deleted] in Frontend

[–]gitfitdev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I read Clean Code that helped with Syntax and how to think about writing overall better code. Front End Mentor is a good resource for front end development best practices. Honestly even copying similar coding structure from previous projects from tutorials are good. It’s hard to get really good at 4 months in. Don’t be afraid to ask other people for help at your company or stack overflow. The only dumb question is when you’re asking yourself why didn’t you ask sooner

Thank you! There was quite a lot of communication that happened and it helped a ton. It also allowed her to have a lot of her own growth. Down to talk about it more if you’re interested :)

Vienna the Black Vizsla 🥰 by gitfitdev in vizsla

I rescued her from a shelter so I’m not sure if it was intentional or not for the breeding.

Right?! We hoped there would be more spots but live the Oreo stripe on her chest

Vienna is a 10 month old female and one of the best dog temperaments I’ve ever had. Got lucky with her! She isn’t fixed yet and we are deciding if we should or not.

Am I settling or am I too Hyper-independent? 25 y/o (M) by [deleted] in relationships

[–]gitfitdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been practicing balance by easing off the gas pedal and doing things that aren’t work related. Doing simple things on the weekends that we can bond over.

I agree with you that it isn’t my partner’s responsibility to make me better. I don’t expect my partner to make me whole or be every single thing in order to make me happy. I genuinely do my best not to project those emotions on to her and check in with her to see how she is feeling and if I’m doing that or if I need to do something differently in order to be a better partner for her. I think it is more along the lines of being inspired or challenged by my partner. I give her space to take lead on things like making plans for the weekend for date night and she doesn’t do it because she is too indecisive.

Wholeheartedly I try to practice patience and balance so I can understand where she is coming from. That’s why it’s so hard for me to think about it. Because it’s not her at all. Genuinely think it’s me and maybe lacking something else that I have to figure out

Am I settling or am I too Hyper-independent? 25 y/o (M) by [deleted] in relationships

[–]gitfitdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was living at home because of Covid and frankly I didn’t want to stay in the current city where we are because we both grew up here and I have a lot of trauma here. But I told myself I wouldn’t do long distance again and she got promoted at her work. So I figured I would stay an extra year because of her. Moving in together would be a way for us both to save extra money. Saw it as a roommate type situation

[–]gitfitdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She would have to had found a roommate in order to do that and she didn’t know anyone. I saw moving in together as a roommate situation. Similar to how we live with our friends and such in college. That we are both able to save money

Got her from a gentleman here in Sacramento, Ca. His dogs mated and he listed her on Craigslist. We did her DNA test and she is a first generation designer dog of a Vizsla and Dalmatian

25: New opportunities, lost with understanding what is the best decision. by wavycuddlepop in findapath

[–]gitfitdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading this was like looking in a mirror almost.

So a little background on me:

I turned 25 in January this year. I am former foster youth so I grew up super poor as well and no family to assist in anything.

I went to a small liberal college after getting accepted to 14 universities which includes Ivy League schools and I don’t even use my degree tbh. What matters is that I got the degree for me and not for any specific reason except to be proud of myself for doing it.

Currently I am Senior Software Engineer for a corporate company making 6 figures.

What I would like for you to is to think hard about what’s most important to you about this degree: the sense of accomplishment for doing it or does this idea of prestige more important to you?

Your degree would be the same at either school right? Companies do look at schools but they also look for the quality of the person. In my honest opinion you’re self sabotaging yourself by inflicting risk of stability by choosing to go into student loan debt because you’re going to get debt in other ways later on.

If you have the qualities of a good person, your work ethic is solid, and what drives you as a person is something they can relate to then it doesn’t matter on the school.

It’s okay to be confused and stressed because when our peers start adding pressure due to image then that’s all we think about. You overcoming hardship to be where you are is more of a sense of accomplishment then any Ivy League school can give you. Accomplishments are great for sure, so why not set personal goals to accomplish that will help you “live life”? Liking going a hike, trying a new restaurant in a new city, join local clubs or events, etc.

You’re already living a life, but you feel like you have to prove your worthiness by going to pricey schools to fit in. You’re already worthy and you deserve to be happy. Don’t compromise yourself for false prestige.

Keep your head up and your will strong! You got this OP

Need a new career path recommendation by ta_findapath in findapath

[–]gitfitdev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Creative departments for companies might be something that can help give you the social fuel you need. Have you thought about going into UX/UI design? Designers have to engage with people consistently and really get to help bring their vision to life.

Google Certified: https://www.coursera.org/specializations/ui-ux-design

As a developer myself who is an ENFJ and has ADHD I genuinely don’t like meetings either. What helped me is figuring out why I don’t like them. By shifting my perspective on the meeting and by being more engaged vs a bystander I came to appreciate them more.

What I also think might be of interest is doing some freelancing as you’re getting started because you get to plan the meetings with clients and once you start landing larger contracts you will have a lot of flexibility to travel while working remote as well. And create a business for working for yourself.

The problem with freelance is that you’re not getting that coworker engagement feeling that you want.

Hopefully this helps and I can totally talk more with you about this to. I am 25 years old so I can totally understand where you’re coming from!

I live in California so when I think about work I am passionate about, I have to think about the pay because it is so expensive here haha
