Yeah, no. They finance a lot of DEI stuff instead of investing it in the code.

He was just 'trolling' for leftist Democrats. So no ugliness. There.

I can't read more about the 'passion' arguments. People who are making that 'argument' should read the book 'So good they can't ignore' before.

No way we move to a worse CDN only because some don't like Trump.

Well, it's harder, but I don't think it's too hard. You have to keep your motivation high.

Of course, it's nice to have some seniors, where you can look over their shoulders. Usually, you don't have this ideal situation. Most of the time, I didn't have it, too.

You can use a lot of modern Internet resources.

I got a Learning O'Reilly Account. There you can find courses, videos and live events where you can ask questions. It's helpful.

Read a lot of good books/e-books, ask in forums and maybe in your town is a user group for that.

Just write the software and constantly look to improve. Your code from 2 years ago is in an ideal situation, much worse than your code now.
