I have wondered how people who have spent their career jumping from runway to runway feel when they look back over their shoulder and only see plane wrecks at the end of derelict runways. Perhaps they made a ton of money, but it has to hurt on some level to have never seen your work amount to something.
- tonyarkles 2y agoI laughed really hard today. I did some contract work for a friend of mine a long time ago and he sent me a message today to let me know that the some of the code I wrote for him was broken. He sent me a screenshot of git blame… I committed it in 2011 :D. Definitely made me smile knowing that that work has been humming along in production for 14 years without a hitch. The only reason it broke is because, apparently, Django finally removed an API that they deprecated a while ago.
