Maybe see it less as a junior and replacement for humans. See it more as a tool for you! A tool so you can do stuff you used to delegate/dump to a junior, do now yourself.
Sure, hate on the person pointing at the fire instead of the people holding the matches.
If you aren’t prepared to face criticism after a failure, you shouldn’t participate in a professional environment.
Without people pointing out where it went wrong you’ll never j ow what to improve upon. Because if you knew, and chose not to act..now that would be a whole new level of incompetence.
it would be like every time a business gets broken into you berate them for their lack of physical security. nobody does it because that would be inane, and what you are doing is a straight analog to it
If a bank holding your money gets broken into, everything is stolen, and the bank tells you your money is gone and you're not getting it back, do you think it would be within your rights to berate them or is that too mean? Because that's what the actual analogy here is. You're allowed to be lax with your security when you're the only victim of your negligence. When your lack of security causes other people to suffer harm, of course those people are going to have an issue.
With my husband (and probably most people who already already suffering with pain) the pain was too much to walk, and walking was very much counterproductive, so this is bad advise, especially the l "focus on resisting the urge to tell me why it can’t be done" part. It's not the type of pain that you can just power through. He said the pain caused his legs to physically stop working. He had to do PT exercises first and build up to walking.
Having to select 2 items for 1 sleep intervention is a weird way of keeping things simple..
To help you a bit: 1 is easier…
So 1 hardware product working independently is what we want.
If you must to appease the shareholders do a subscription…make it add some functionality that would be impossible without a subscription…
But locking people in a subscription to “keep upfront cost lower” is devious at best.
Add to the world..don’t (cash)grab.
Right? Why are we giving grace to a damn computer as if it's human? How are people defending this? If it's a computer, I don't care how intelligent it is. 98% right is actually unacceptable.
Yours looks sleeker though. One thing I learned quickly after having friends use it..other people want different things and catering to more than just myself takes soooo much time.
So I stick to building what I want and releasing it for free.
Sure, but also as an adult, you're expected to have learned some resilience to failure. You're expected to be able to be able to withstand some criticism and see negativity as a chance to improve.
I know it doesn't always work that way, but a lot of times our failures aren't just "on us", but affect others.
You are being too generous. Talk to most people over 50 (not even dragging current politics into this). Some have (still) some critical thinking, but a lot of them have their opinions set in stone, ego adequately high, and criticism is taken very defensively, you end up in 'other' camp, stonewalled.
It may not be the audience here so much, but average folks out there?
Those kids today. Have you tried telling them they're wrong? The idea that you might have actually learned things, rather than spending fifty years staring at a blank wall utterly passes them by. Cancel you as soon as look at you, most of 'em.
I'm amused that the original ageist response ("old people suck") is left alone and the parody of the original ageist response ("young people suck") is downvoted. I would expect a bit better from HN readers, though any community that becomes popular enough devolves to average-at-best.
Thanks. I'm torn on a response. On the one hand, HN was always bad at reading between the lines - even quite broad lines. On the other hand, maybe I'm just not as funny as I think I am, and that's what they're downvoting.
