Week 26 advice - you all probably know this but good to refresh!

Eat healthily

Sleep well

Document clearly

Annotate your code

Use version control properly

Keep yourself in check with project management tools

Your peers are your friends... And competition.

As much as your boss is an idiot respect them and your life will be easier.

With great power comes great responsibility; don't touch that keyboard until you think through what you are doing chances are your first idea is not the best.

Don't write quick fixes and say you will go back to clean it up later on when you have time. That time will never come.

What really matters about being a developer is how you use your skills, you can know lots but you need to be creative and open-minded.

Don't use your skills for stuff like this, with great power comes great responsibility, don't abuse your powers to give people camcer

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:

#1) Respect the privacy of others.
#2) Think before you type.
#3) With great power comes great responsibility.

With great power comes the responsibility of attending constant meetings

Seeing the way people write CSS I understand why they think it's badly designed. It's just that they don't use it properly, they don't think about general structure of the system, they just haphazardly pile up declarations, recklessly abusing cascade.

CSS - with great power comes great responsibility.

Was running personal laptop on 4.10 kernel (running Manjaro).

Was having problems for some reason with an audio program I'm using and so needed to run some older kernel that is real time for better latency.

Installed that kernel and booted with it.

Attempted to remove kernel 4.10, I don't need it anymore.

Rebooted, some kernel modules aren't loading. Xorg not creating a session.

I have no input working.
Not even wifi.

I can't detect USB devices.

Tried to fix it all night.. going through a ton of forums online...

Finally I give up. I didn't have access to anther computer to get a bootable USB image to. FUCK. IM NOT SMART ENOUFG FOR THIS SHIT.

I have 3 USB drive that I carry around all the time. Why don't I have a live image in one of them?

I went to sleep.

Next day I download Lubuntu (just to boot and backup some stuff before downloading and reinstalling Manjaro).

When I was burning the ISO to the USB, turns out I actually had a bootable Ubuntu on it the whole time.

I feel so stupid.

Last week I don't remember why, but I did sudo chmod 770 /

Which also broke my system.

Took me 3 hours to realize that this was the problem and make it work.

I love Linux. It keeps things interesting..

I found this out during my final practical exam while doing...
sudo useradd
phone's weren't allowed so no pic! 😀😀

!rant One of the better refactoring insights I've heard today: "With great power comes great responsibility".

Just because a language may not care about certain constructs, doesn't mean you should be relaxed about them (e.g. weak/dynamic typing/not caring about (variable name) consistency).
