Most people’s financial decisions are driven by what the people around them decide — which, in this culture, typically ranges from thoughtless to completely backwards — and conscious thought about the getting the best deal on happiness doesn’t enter the picture. Would you rather have five all-expenses-paid years off to spend with your family, learn a language or build a business — or drive a big car instead of a small car? It’s shockingly normal for people to choose the latter, because they have no idea that they’re making that choice at all.

I am way happier already. In the three months since I’ve been smarter about my spending, I’ve saved three months’ worth of living expenses, which has an immediate stress-reducing effect. I could get laid off or fired and have plenty of time to figure out what to do, so there’s much less day-to-day stress about my job performance, which has actually led to an effortless improvement in job performance. I have a sense of control over my life that I’ve never felt before. These intangible dividends are immediate, and they don’t cost a cent because the money is still mine.
Clean Code doesn't work—not because the principles are wrong, but because the real world is dirty, chaotic, unpredictable, and asynchronous. The best code I’ve ever seen violated a good half of Clean Code’s commandments.
Some degree of ownership over the code you write is inevitable and probably healthy. You should care about the things you build! But that doesn’t mean you have any actual ownership. The codebase you spend time on at work is the company’s codebase, and they can do whatever they want with it. You should communicate the risks and consequences of decisions, but ultimately it’s not your call.
Occasionally, you will see the opportunity to completely remove the worrying part of the system, which for me is one of the most satisfying things you can do as a software engineer. Removing things that cause your team stress has compounding benefits to your team, to the systems you work on, and to your engineering org in general
Some of Stephen Wolfram’s “productivity hacks” to make his days and projects more productive. Daily life, desk environment, outside the office, presentation setup, filesystem organization, Wolfram Notebook systems, databases, personal analytics.
I especially like the treadmill.
An active open source contribution is a good habit for a software developer who is passionate about his or her job.

если в процессе обсуждения архитектуры вы пришли у выводу, что в проекте потребуется настоящее горизонтальное масштабирование — вам не обойтись без конечных автоматов (так-то лучше вообще любую бизнес-логику строить именно на конечных автоматах, но в автономной системе можно подкостылить и без них, а вот в кластере — уже никак)
Так или иначе, если вы хотите оказаться готовым отмасштабироваться в горизонталь — стройте критические процессы на конечных автоматах и полностью асинхронно
Зато асинхронные взаимодействия поверх FSM — сделают в дальнейшем масштабирование безболезненным, ведь в такой парадигме не имеет никакого значения, на какой ноде выполнится код, отвечающий на запрос.
Long daily commutes can leave little time around busy work days for commuters, who tend to be less physically active, overweight, drink more alcohol, and sleep poorly as a result.
