I feel put on the spot. I thought there would be more but I can't think of any at the moment.
If you ever make a post asking for YouTube video suggestions, I'll definitely be able to comment on that much better. There's some really helpful videos out there, featuring Alan Watts and George Thompson that have helped me tremendously when dealing with the day to day engineering stress.
I find that I'm learning less about programming lately and more about dealing with the anxiety. That has always been the biggest road blocker for me, anyways. It's easy to find the motivation to sit down and read a book or write a piece of code... It's hard to always enjoy doing it.
- digianarchist 6y agoKropotkin being recommended on Hacker News. Nice.
- jarbus 6y agoVery big fan of Alan Watts, but never heard of Thompson. Especially a fan of the Tao of Pooh rec. Looking more for programming novels, such as ways to write better, faster, and cleaner code.
