@grips i shall ganbaruzoi
and it's public sector so not the *best* but good enough to let me live alone (if you don't count an entire cabinet of weeb figures as making me "not alone" :akaheh:) in a nice little apartment thingy, quite comfortably -

@grips eh it's ok. it's quite different culturally from the baby anarchist's expo - at once more concrete with the ideas of the direction things need to go, but more wishywashy with the personal side, as one might expect of that sort of place
i haven't got to the point of being able to hammer stuff out yet - the sheer scope of some of the functionality has taken me a while to properly understand - but i'm getting there. currently i'm spending most days figuring out (read: breaking) the bespoke tooling, but i've got stuff deployed to the live env so i guess there's that -

@grips i kinda think the raw productivity of managing to get in the zone is worth any amount of attention - although they probably don't really notice
i'm firmly of the opinion that programming sits more between a trade and an art than a science - nobody will criticize a carpenter or painter for wanting his workshop or studio set out a certain way, the same should be true of how a programmer works. do whatever gets results for you personally -

@grips literally nothing wrong with visualising physically
large systems are very hard to hold in your head - if you can do it, great, but if not, using tools to help isn't weird at all
in a perfect world the documentation of the project should mean you don't *have* to make your own, but a perfect world this is not -

@grips a lot of people learn the art of "looking busy whilst not actually being busy". like running meaningless system updates just to make it look "technical"
just try to learn the pattern you work in and stick to that - if people are praising you for the output then something is working somewhere and you must be up to scratch with everyone else around you -

i *still* trust absolutely no compliment ever given to me because of just how many times trick ones were thrown at me in my school years
you think "oh it's just kids joking" but heck it leaves you unable to be "normal" in the long run -

that's what gets me about how bullying is portrayed in most media
it's rarely as obvious as "someone hitting you" or "getting locked in a locker"
it's far more insidious and difficult to recognise until its too late and you've become used to it -

no, but they'll constantly get at you in hundreds of tiny little ways that won't be as immediately obvious as your head in a toilet but leaves you an anxious mess
frankly i'd rather have been subject to the toilet

@grips they can't
programming is too abstract a thing to focus on for more than maybe... idk 4 hours on an *excellent* day?
you realistically won't get more than that. even if you're doing something like ludum dare which requires constant focus, i'm only capable of going for a few hours before being forced to take a break, and being floored after 2 days of that (and needing a few days to recover)
it's hecking impostor-syndrome inducing, right? i find the best way to deal with it is to find the fastest way into "the zone" where you might get 2 hours uninterrupted and abuse that - although a lot of days i don't manage it
also not a brag or anything but i always had a reputation for being a speedy speed command line is burning programmer, and i only manage to do maybe 20-40 minutes without my mind drifting
just the nature of the job -
