Thinking about my future... I have skills in IT, art and now possibly in geo/paleo. I would want to mix them together and have a well paying stable job sometime in 1-3 years from now on. Any ideas? Any sphere needs such soup of skills?

What could be worse than rewriting old code that was written by another person, who called variables not only with lexical errors, but also using words unrelated to the code context... 👽🛸
Here's some hard-won old #python#programmer wisdom. (Been talkin' to these gol-durn machines for forty years now!)
When doing something like this
if self.foo() or self.bar:
...
And your code relies on self.foo() to be called every time, leave future you a brief comment warning against reversing the order of the terms.
This one (proprietary) project of mine is now over 30,000 lines in 150 mostly unit-tested modules & it gets hard to remember everything 100%. Maybe more after 40 years...
Start with the tech stuff. I'm a #programmer. Mostly writing web apps using #ReactJS and #NodeJS with some #mongodb. Been dabbling with #mui for a recent project too.
I've been messing computer since a child and have fond memories of being asked to spend £1000 of my dad's friends money to build him a computer. The look on his face when he walked into his dining room to see bits of computer scattered all over the table and me, age 9, ready to put it together. Not going to say my age now, but it was a 486DX2-66 with a whole 8MB of memory.
Outside of tech, I'm outdoorsy. I like a good #hike, or #walk in the woods. I love nature and campaign to protect the #climate and #biodiversity.
I #cycle lots of places but just to save on petrol and parking. My #bike was free and I don't own lycra.
I have an #allotment where I grow a lot of my own food. I eat a mostly #vegetarian diet, so that keeps the food bill lower.
Learning #guitar and #French... Sometimes at the same time!
In 1991, my Bulgarian roommate's Mom in Bulgaria heard about "computer viruses" and freaked. She called her son and sternly warned him to be very careful around computers, and take care of his health. He tried to explain that computer viruses don't affect one's physical health. But she was just Mom. Wouldn't hear a word of his protests. He finally agreed to her terms. He teaches Computer Science now.
I’ve learned the liver is your body’s version of a monolithic app. It does over 500 functions. It’s like God got tired of designing small services and was like “just put it in the liver we got a universe to finish this sprint!” #programmer#humor
Certain folks are saying that Bluesky’s search capabilities spell potential doom for the Fediverse.
Except Bluesky is only searching on one node. What happens when you add another node? What happens when you add 10,000 nodes for Bluesky to connect with?
Will all nodes that use AT protocol have comparable search?
Will Bluesky’s search even be as good as what’s available on Misskey, Akkoma, Friendica, and some forms of Mastodon?
I am Piyush Chandwani. A fullstack web-developer and a #programmer based India #MastIndia . I have a deep understanding in the art of creating website 🧑💻.
I am a #webdev enthusiast and like to share great resource with these awesome folk's over here.
It's time for an #introduction ... As a scientific and #graphics#programmer I worked on the Human #Genome Project, the Mars Observer Camera that discovered water on #Mars, #Apple Computer, and several startups.
Then I took a 20 year break from programming, during which I retrained first as an aquatic bodyworker.
Then, I started a community #solar#nonprofit, the Solar Gardens Institute. I even got to speak at the Obama White House.
Okay, I think ik how this works now so I'ma do a #introducion.
Hi, I'm Galaxy or Moshi. I'm a #programmer and #RobloxDev who loves random facts, #astronomy and all things computers. I'll post some random stuff about code and other things that you might find interesting!
Hi all! #introduction
Cross posting from @jeighto (not sure where I'd like to call home yet)😅
I'm Janel / Jeighto and I'm currently working as a Senior Environment #3DArtist at Ubisoft!
I'm also working on several #indiedev#horror, as both an #artist and #programmer. I'll be posting lots of updates about those soon!!
Besides that, I LOVE food, especially the super #spicy variety, and #powerlifting!
Don't be shy! I'm trying to find my people here and am excited to meet you all <3
