   I think the natural progression of war is going to be remote controlled systems. Drones are for flying. Remote Controlled land and water units would also work. There are multiple reasons why it's the future. 1. Cheap to make 2. Can be

   I dislike //TODOs for the same reason I dislike commented out code. It adds noise to the code with no actual benefit. If a TODO is outdated it actually becomes a false flag, it's like a comment that doesn't reflect the c

   I watched the video this morning. Thanks, it gave me something to reflect on.

   Thanks for the thoughtful post. It's full of good ideas. > After onboarding someone to a new system, “what was the hardest part of this to wrap your head around, is there a way for us to make it easier?” Or, “genuine question, if I

   A lot of people have made comments similar to yours. I do help others, but I could be doing a better job.

   I got a 30% raise in 2021 and 15% in 2022, so I can't complain about being compensated.

    People get stuck solving problems for various reasons. For me, I think more clearly when I write. The primary benefit is that it stops having to mentally re-establish my logical premises to make sure my conclusions are sound. Anyway, the ha

    Cannibalization effect. You are probably right. I think one of the things I need to do more of is listen more, talk less.

    I actually try to help others. Though I admit that I should be doing it more.

    Actually, I really enjoy what I do and my team. I just dislike the weird sense of responsibility. Your perspective on extracurricular activities is interesting. I'm at the top 17% of Stack Overflow, does that count :)

    It sounds like you have personal experience in this. I hear you. From what I have observed through code reviews that I, or others, have looked at that doesn't happen with my code unless there is a very fundamental shift. Even then I tr

    I can go really deep talking about this, so I will just write my personal system pointers that I keep by my desk. Iterate fast > perfect Write it down to relieve cognitive load. Uni-task (focus on one thing at a time) Prioritize and exec

    This is a fair criticism and concern. Part of the reason why I made this post is I can sense internally that I'm starting to lean on the whole "I know this thing better than you", which actually scares me. If I'm thinkin

    I prefer this perspective :) Honestly, I have no need for validation. I've just started to feel angst and figured if there is a place where I can get good advice, even if it hurts, it would be HN. From that perspective I have gotten en

    Eh, that is exactly what I don't want. Pretending I am this amazingly productive developer and my code is just trash. I just checked. In 2021, only two defects were created against my specific code changes. If I had to home into a weak

    This mirrors others replies. I think you have all collectively convinced me that I need to focus more on helping others. I do like your phrasing a lot though. I wish I could mirror your communication skills. Your flow from complement to exp

    A very interesting point of view. A theme in replies is that I should be teaching / helping others. I do that in terms of advice, but I am starting to realize that I need to focus more on not giving the right answer, but explaining how

    I've had the same debate myself. Honestly, not counting crazy hectic meeting days I could work 9-3 and still produce more than others. The only thing stopping me is the feeling that if I'm getting paid I should be working. However
