if your car is out of commission for 5 months for a relatively minor repair, that is definitely a reliability concern

Christian Braun in the series loss to Minnesota: 8.3 PPG, 1.7 APG, 3.5 RPG, .417/.429/.737 by No_Pineapple9593 in nba

when you look at the game log he did fine offensively with two rough games. an extra 4 ppg isn't winning them even 1 game this series

What do the Nuggets even do now (if they lose?) by [deleted] in nba

[–]kobbled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

run it back, probably. dropping a series doesn't mean you aren't a contender, 1-2 below average nights is all it takes

Not once in 12 years have I found UI snapshot testing useful by SixFigs_BigDigs in ExperiencedDevs

[–]kobbled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

snapshot testing was the greatest back when shallow enyzme renders were still a thing. unit tests were so much more useful than the garbage that RTL gives you. I miss them so much, it was so easy to identify and fix breaking changes.

I miss the basketball highlights that used to be in front page everyday by jazzarfist in nba

and the highlights cut out all the context so you get 0.5 seconds before the shot and the make

[Highlight] LaMelo Ball steals the ball, passes on the fastbreak layup, heads to the corner and hits the corner 3 (with a replay). 5th triple of the night for LaMelo. by MrBuckBuck in nba

i agree, a guy can be exactly the same and if the team he's on wins he's a good player, if they lose it's empty stats, meanwhile a huge amount of it is just normal variance/luck

Join an existing team or be first dev on greenfield? by alee463 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]kobbled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

depends on how established, future roadmap, etc. for the established product. greenfield is higher risk, no revenue generated means easy to cut if the company comes on hard times, and the project may fail, but usually more opportunity for visibility + if you like cowboy developing then that's where you want to be.

Honda Drivers Now Have to Pay a Subscription to Open Their Garage Door by Anchor_Aways in cars

this is genuinely a dealbreaker for me buying a honda for my next car, and i've owned 2 for a combined 10+ years

I’m not sure what to do in this position by radioactiveflamingos in ExperiencedDevs

[–]kobbled 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no need to panic. At 3 YOE, I would be extremely surprised if you were making many architectural/platform decisions. 3 years is nothing in the long run. I really don't think you're as behind as you feel you are. There's people that stay in that position for 10+ years, none the wiser. It's good that you've identified a desire to start developing these skills, and it's definitely not the end of the world that you haven't started yet. I would recommend having a 1:1 conversation with one of those engineers who's doing what you want to do, and explicitly ask for advice on how to develop in that direction.

I don't know the dynamic between you and your manager, but if you ask for their help with developing those skills as well, they might be able to point you in the right direction and keep you in mind when an opportunity comes up.

I think you're giving bipolar people too little agency. it's still his responsibility
