The code change was requested by an employee and it wouldn't have caused any damage. Feature, not a bug. Imagine trying to explain this to someone who doesn't know what "code" is. It's just people making up a sto

Got sued by my previous company for a line of code that they asked me to change. Luckily I had proof that they asked me to modify that line of code. If I didn't, well, I'd owe them millions of dollars and have my wages garnished

Because women are smart. The women I've worked with claim ignorance to programming, have no desire to learn programming, and give me a mile high task list of things to do. Then they take all the credit for my work while I'm bein

I don't think you can judge quality until you're actually employed. The best looking jobs on the surface turned out to be some of the worst jobs I've ever worked. There's a lot of similarities between dating and findin

The interview process is great for employers... 1. Make qualified job interview candidate feel stupid by asking difficult questions unrelated to the job 2. Offer candidate low salary and argue that they barely passed the job interview 3.

I've found that the more time I spend doing low level code at my job, the less work they think I'm doing. The more you email and be at your desk, the harder they think you're working. I've realized that performance is

Oddly enough, the only somewhat successful project ($20k/month peak passive income) I've ever had was when I didn't know how to code. I spent all my time on marketing and built the site in Wordpress + Plugins in 1 day.

The advantage of paper is that you can be more creative and use slow thinking[1]. Just take a look at Newton's[2] or DaVinci's[3] notebooks, how would they think so freely on a computer? Sure for a work task list, a computer is
