   This is my biggest issue with it. I log in at 10AM and keep working until 1230 or so. Then I click on Teams tray icon. I get all the messages flooding in. My team who needs me think I am an asshole who has been online for at least 2 hours a

   I did this, but the problem was that I never got any notifications. I did not block notifications at all, but I got little to no notifications especially for when meetings started. I had to revert to full app because of this.

   Another +1. I got a HP w100 480P 30 FPS for this purpose. It serves my purpose best which is interviews and screen shares with friends. I can be seen and recognized and save on bandwich.

   I skipped computer architecture for another elective IIRC, so it may be worth my while after all. Thank you.

    Thanks for this solid comment. Assembly is the one that I am most removed from at the moment. It is 15 years or more. So it seems like I will enjoy it at the very least.

    I majored in electronics (more than a decade ago) but always worked in software development. Does it still make sense to purchase it? I am eager to buy it, just need the push. :)

    I doubt they make any money. But think of how many people soften their stances on Microsoft and buy into their developer ecosystem eventually. It is a success in that sense.

    My observations and experiences. Used VSCode from 2014. 1. Attracted Nodejs and then Python initially. 2. Fast enough 3. Good extension architecture and extensive extension ecosystem (hey look a new EEE) 4. LSP integration

    It will let you browse HN for x minutes and then take a break for y minutes. Default x and y are 20 and 180. This means you read for 20 minutes and then are blocked for 3 hours. When you are blocked it will display the remaining minutes to

    Against the common sense, I started talking a little bit more when the 1-1 mentee is at a unknown unknown situation. I tell them they should look fwd to a,b and c if they are to look for a direction and I invite them to setup a further spec

    That Road to Zig talk is a must watch. I keep coming back to it. More than the language, I love how much conviction Andrew has in his vision for Zig.

    I am a right handed person, but I try to get the left hand to do an activity the moment I am conscious about it. Two such examples are brushing teeth and using the mouse. Long time back I started using my left hand for brushing. Even 15 yea

    That makes sense. I didn't think about it that way, but traditional MVC views would do just as well I guess for greenfield work.
