I love and hate this

That’s an opportunity to learn how to do camping better next time, if you figure out what works for you, it can be pretty comfortable

Buying property. You can close in 30 days, and if you are buying a bunch of property, you can hire people out to handle things and speed up the process, and if you put offers on a ton of property, you could probably close on a lot of them in 30 days. If you are waiving around $100m you could make a lot happen.

That’s easy, buy all the real estate in an area that’s for sale, scarcity will drive up the value of the properties you have bought. Economics 101.

– This is sarcasm and is poking fun of wall street buying up all the property to be landlords, the world and economy are much more complicated than this… But, it is a quick way to spend $100m in 30 days

I also think it’s probably a good idea to try out the new career path. Doing software dev as a job, and doing it as a hobby because you like to, are very different when it comes to motivations and goals. Don’t think of it as walking away and just being a lowly hobby dev though, you can build your skills and work on what you want to as a hobby, for the problems you are trying to solve and things you like to work on, and that’s totally ok.

Not everyone wants to put in the effort to play guitar for a living, but you can definitely still enjoy guitar.

If you like vue, try svelte(kit). Not that it’s better, but another tool in your toolbox. Svelte stores are pretty nice.

Feeling this lately. Also “well it works on my machine”.

Honestly I like typescript, actually writing the language, but as soon as it comes to build time it becomes a hot mess. Trying to transpile to node and browser, I might as well use fucking cmake.

It’s not that easy for corporate environments, but yes, IT departments need to push back, this is pretty fucked up

It’s not that hard to use and it’s worth the transition. Gaming on Linux is pretty reasonable at this point, most stuff is in the browser or has a Linux app now too.

That is a terrible dark pattern. “Let me just change the defaults away from the option that literally is the default setting (default browser) to the thing I want users to use instead”.

Straight up maliciously ignoring “default browser”.
