You (or them) being a bad programmer or not is not really the question (even though you seem to be right). I think you should step back from the code and talk to the people. Ask them why they did something like this or like that. Show them

The design looks good but what a strange way to see you life ! If you need to write down 'Do 10 minute Meditation for 200 times' maybe you don't like meditating that much and should stop doing it instead of forcing yourself

That is a given for every resident in most European countries. Edit: it seems I am wrong. I commented a bit too fast.

I have been learning Japanese for a while and I am at a level good enough to consume native content. You don't realize how hard it is to buy (mostly digital) Japanese content online. I believe it is due to 20th century pre internet zon

At some point I as listening a lot of nursery rhymes song with my child. When doing this I just let the recommendation algorithm choose the next song for me because I don't really care what to watch next. After a few week I was stuck i

More demand for qualified labour will tend to increase the salary of people offering these skills. Salaries are not written in stone and evolve depending on market conditions.

The people who mention unions have in mind better rights for employees not better pay (no one seriously thinks SV developers need better salaries).

When I see someone working long hours I always think that either this person must be very disorganised or should move to a less exploitative company. I don't see it as honorific at all (I live in the UK).

I have two personal websites. My main problem is that it is very hard to share them. Half of the subreddits don't accept links thanks to spammers. I don't use other social media... They are not the typical Hacker News link. Genera
