Absolutely brutal subscription anti-pattern used by @EducativeInc. You must sign up for auto-renewal to get access, and there is no reminder prior to being charged.
Lesson for us SaaS companies looking to prioritize customer experience vs. counting on folks to forget things.

The most important life skill: use meditation to create space between external stimulus and your response.

This is a friendly reminder to all my developer friends (and anyone with a skill). I don’t care if you’ve been programming for a year or 20, your skill and experience is valuable. If someone is asking for help with a project SHOULD BE COMPENSATED for this value.
Friend from ten years ago: Yo! Long time! Want to grab a beer?
Me: Great to hear from you! I would love that..
<at pub catching up for an hour afterwards...>
Them: Do you still build apps? I have this killer app idea.
Me: *massive internal sigh*

Looking for Lead/Principal Design IC or Design Management roles, primarily in UX, product design, or brand (but preferring to focus on product).

I've got terrible allergies.
Being deep in home renos, I built a super powerful air purifier that turns on automatically when there is dust in the air.
When Home Assistant detects high particulate consistently for four minutes, it turns on the fan using a Sonoff S20 smart plug with ESPHome installed. Reverse when the particulate is low.
It's beautiful that there is so much flexibility in this industry that the shape of one's role can change so much even within the organization.

I was out of the loop on one of the teams I managed.
We found we hadn't landed on the right level of updates that I felt I needed. We agreed on giving any kind of update daily and I'd let him know if it's too much.
It's been the right amount. Easy win to build alignment.
Great article @nonpedantic! I would add one more:
- Prototype / Sales Engineer - Able to pull pieces together quickly to demonstrate value.
TL;DR
- Software Architect More niche than a Staff Engineer
- Product Management - I did this for awhile. Very valuable for an eng.
Great thread on giving feedback folks! The only piece I would add:
Give feedback as close as possible to when you see a situation. This gives the individual a quick feedback loop to improve and they have a concrete example they can replay to do better next time.
