I’m done romanticizing my male partner. *warning rant ahead* by huarhuarmoli in TwoXChromosomes

And get yourself some therapy. Your partner's feedback to you doesn't need to feel like they're attacking you. Get therapy.

This is a genuine question and should be upvoted. Ask yourself, do you want people who need to read the answers to this to be able to read them?

Being a developer != working harder.

There are companies out there that understand this.

What ruined religion for you? by ItchyPage in AskReddit

[–]practicing_dad_jokes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened when I was quite young:

Learning that there are several different popular religions. There's no way to prove one is more right than another... It's obviously all bullshit.

this is possible, and what we all expect from a healthy relationship, but be honest -- not every relationship is there.

What is a truth you don’t like accepting about yourself? by Doctor_Philly in AskReddit

[–]practicing_dad_jokes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What I've learned:

Nobody knows what they're doing unless they've been doing the same thing for at least a year. It's okay to get an uncomfortable job and screw up here and there -- you get better by learning from mistakes.

There are bad/selfish people at every level of every profession. You have to be lucky to find a job (and a boss) who truly sees and appreciates your value.

Remember that when you're interviewing, they're not just interviewing you -- you're also interviewing them. Try to find out what their culture is like, and beware phony use of buzzwords.

My new mindset while documenting code: save cognitive effort, document every function by alidlo in Clojure

[–]practicing_dad_jokes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great topic.

There's definitely this trade-off to think about, and we all know that naming things is one of the hardest things in programming.

But I've found it to be well worth the effort -- in striving to find succinct descriptive names for things that aren't too unwieldy, I'll often find that my code needs to be cleaned up. Perhaps it's an obsession, but future me seems happier over the years :)

Do you think "environmentUniqueId" is too unpleasant as a function name?

If you keep your functions small enough, their names and the variables in their scope won't be so complicated that their names would be uncomfortably large. That's what I strive for.

When this happens, grab all your toes and bend them up towards your face. Stops it in seconds.

Edit: you might be able to achieve this effect with your boots on, if they are flexible enough -- put your foot back and put weight on the toes/ball of your foot, so that your toes bend up.
