Not to veer to far off topic, but do any of you long-term Codex users happen to know how long the Codex Resets can be banked for? I can find no indications of an expiration date in the TUI or on the Web App. From what I have searched, I hav

As someone that is "neurodivergent," I agree. A lot of advice, especially surrounding executive dysfunction, could be boiled down into a single step -- step 1: do not have executive dysfunction. Now, I am not trying to say there i

I concur. One has to program computers to be a computer programmer. If one just prompts LLMs, they are a software prompter. I think both can fit under the title of a software developer or perhaps even software engineer.

I write organic code in 2026 because I do not have a choice. Which, honestly, I am thankful for most of the time. My employer has no LLM mandates nor do they supply us an LLMs to use. In my personal life, I cannot justify more than a $20 su

That assumes one has the chops to get into FAANG. I highly doubt I could pass a basic interview -- even with ample time to prepare. Besides, if I were truly anything special, then I am sure one of the FAANG companies would have tried to con

One thing I have wondered about these calculations: is one's annual income supposed to be inclusive of all remunerations? You know, things like employer matches in retirement accounts, health insurance contributions, etc.?
