Money is definitely an issue. And if I decide to build a family, then it'll be more of an issue. These people at indiehacker.com post some very positive stories, it does compel me to try and see if it works for me. If I can build somet

They just offer senior titles to justify the paycheck, I think. I just want an out of this fullstack web dev work. I was considering targeting HFT companies for money and complex technical work (but there are very few openings). Or maybe in

Does this apply to 30 year olds who've been working for a while and feel lost?

I don’t understand why are senior developers getting fired. If over-hiring was the reason for the layoffs. Then shouldn’t the recently hired people be fired?

I think I'll try this way. I don't dry run the code enough while I write it. And I've only recently started adding comments for myself. Thanks for the tip.

I never seem to get it. I guess trial and error is the only way then.

I am similar to you, I use Linux (not the best for gaming, but still I make games work through WINE). I think once I stop compulsing on video games too, then maybe I can start working on my personal projects too.

Haha, I have it in my library, played it for 20hrs or something. But I think I stopped before I got hooked.

I beleived that too. But recently, one of my uncles, who was being considered to be promoted to being a director in his company, was rejected because the other person who got promoted, had a masters degree. And my uncle was like, "I wi

Thanks for all the great advice. I've started working through LC myself, and I think using your method would make the process more efficient. I think it'll be better for me money-wise once I land a top-tier job. It'll also ma

Yes, I'm looking for a new job. It's just, I think that interviews will be harder now, than when I had 2 years of experience. I need to prepare to ace interviews for better companies.

I've never tried this before. I'm not an organized person, and its difficult for me to stick to plans. But I'll give it a try, it seems I need to schedule a time slot to work on my personal project, otherwise it'll nev

Haha, I've uninstalled Dota many times (I uninstalled it again today). But the thing is, I end up installing it in a week. Maybe I won't this time.

True, my gaming hours are in the thousands. Almost 2.5k right now.

That was one of the reasons I started playing 2 years ago, I have no friends in my city. And its hard to make friends at work, because I don't know why, at work, I always end up in 2 man teams. It also happened at my previous 2 compani

Well game development would be awesome, but that industry doesn't treat developers right. I also want to make enough money, which the gaming industry lacks. So that's not a feasible option. Maybe working on some VR/AR tech, o

Makes sense, I've always been of the opinion that it's my responsibility to improve upon my skills and that most business-oriented softwares are not going to be challenging. But I think you're right, it will be much more fun

Yes, I would like to work at some projects like that. This is a great idea.
