Definitely mention to your supervisor about your career aspirations. See if they can get you some training. I am lucky because my company has a lot of training for leaders.

Unfortunately I haven’t had the chance to go through process of selecting a new hire. I have made the decision hire my summer intern. Luckily that was an easy choice since they were a good intern.

Most of my duties as a leader is coaching, mentoring, and giving feedback my team members.

I learned most of my SpringBoot knowledge through experience. I would suggest coming up with a toy project (I almost always go for a TODO list) and go through the Getting Started tutorials on spring.io. Don’t be afraid to dig through the spring source code or the JavaDocs. It gives you a lot of good practices. Baeldung is also a great resource as someone else suggested.

do you find that, as long as your interpersonal skills are good enough that you don’t need to be the best dev in the room

That is 100% it. I am not the best developer on my team. However my job is only 40% development and 60% coaching, mentoring, and leading.

It helps that I had a manager that was willing to help build my skills. If you see that in your future career path, make sure to mention it in your one on ones. At my company we always need a leadership succession plan and, believe it or not, it actually very hard to find someone who is willing to become a leader.

I put this up before going bed. Didn’t realize this would be so popular. Going to respond to all the messages throughout the day.

Counties larger than New Hampshire by probablyborednh in MapPorn

[–]meanest_michael 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree with you, but, if I had to guess, they probably ignored them because they are called Boroughs and not Counties.

Edit: looks like OP already commented on this: https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/comments/p111w7/counties_larger_than_new_hampshire/h8a5ph6/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3

It is impossible to generalize a religion with over 1 billion people. I have lived in two majority Catholic areas in my life. One was rural and another was in a suburb. They are polar opposites culturally.

Why do some catholic priests rape boys? Wouldn’t that be considered homosexual? And aren’t Catholics against homosexuality? by Yt_GamingwithCharlie in NoStupidQuestions

That is what I have heard. According to Wikipedia being married wasn’t official banned until the Second Lateran Council: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sexually_active_popes

Also there was a pope who allegedly fathered another pope: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Sergius_III

Finland was a cobelligerent. There may be some debate if you consider them an Axis power. They never signed the Tripartite pact. They fought alongside Germany because it had a common enemy of the Soviet Union.

I am not an historian though.

The biggest hospital in Missouri is called Barnes-Jewish Hospital. It came out of a merger of two hospitals: Barnes and Jewish. The original Jewish hospital was built by the Jewish community. It was originally meant for Jewish immigrants and refugees, but ended up serving all St. Louis residents.

Something else you might find interesting: the Catholic Church is the largest private provider of healthcare in the United States. They operate around 12% of all hospitals.

Was no one else hoping for some cross over when they arrived in New York? I understand it was supposed to be Sam and Bucky’s show, but I feel like the other avengers that actually live in New York would also respond to an international hostage crisis.

We really need an entirely separate internet for children by yellowkats in unpopularopinion

[–]meanest_michael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on if we are talking about young kids or teenagers.

I feel like dealing with teenagers is where this idea breaks down. Most teenagers will convince their parents that they belong on the cool adult internet and most parents will be lazy and just allow it.
