    I left IT for a trade. For several reasons, (AI was one of them but not the most pressing one). 1) I like AI. I have 12 apps in the app store right now. They are being used, (231 installs last week). But I can see the writing on the wall. IT jobs are not going away completely...

    I think it’s time for me to tell my full story. It might lose me some followers but so be it.

    Burnout is real. I’m leaving my job at the end of the month. It’s not anything to do with the job. I just can’t do it anymore. I’m also leaving the tech industry at the end of the month. Burnout is real.

    Me *googles*: "How do I write unit tests?" Google: "Here are 743 tutorials." All 743 Tutorials: "Here is how to test a function that adds two numbers. Okay, that's it! Have fun testing your application." 🤡

    She had never done that, given a client a recommendation before. She said she was THAT sure. I am on my third tech job in 5 years, still married to a nurse that I love more than anything and I have an adorable 3 year old daughter. Just last week we bought a brand new house.

    It’s not even a fraction as funny. I mean not even close. If you’re going to steal content at least improve it. 🙄

    Ran out of tweets. Anyway, I’m not saying this to brag. My point is that if I can go from Prison to Fast-Food to Retail and get a job in fintech with a felony record then there is no reason it can’t happen for you too.

    I’m 43 and still not a senior developer. I guess if I wait until I’m in my 60s I’ll become a “senior” developer by default. 😂

    Two panes of a comic strip. First Pane: There are two red buttons on a console. The first one says, "retype 'npm start'" and the other one says, "press the 'up' arrow 72 times". A white gloved hand is hovering in the middle of the two buttons. Second Pane: "Man in red superhero outfit sweating and wiping his brow with a rag." The idea behind the second pane is that the man is having a tough time making a decision about which button to press in the first pane.

    Now THAT would be an awesome technical interview. Here are six error messages, you have an hour to Google them and copy and paste the fix into this online form. Good luck. 😂
