I'm glad svelte 3 is adding the basic features of sapper. Although sapper was great, it will be even simpler to use without it.

The lack of a good router and SSR was what sapper added to svelte.

I listened to it last night while going to bed. Alex Jones has a lot of insightful info into the New World Order. Its just his infowars platform went full ret-rd on trump's campaign.

The thing is about this Rogan episode was Joe was really pushing him to cite his claims. Nobody ever does that on InfoWars. Don't know why they deleted it.

I'm having a hard time as well. Frontend engineer who hates react. i've been unemployed for 6 months. I've applied to QA jobs, Technical PM jobs...i gotta get out of this programming racket at 46. nobody hiring an old fuddy duddy like me. Hell I even see job postings that say "co-founder/CTO, equity only. Must be early 20s"

I was in your shoes about 2.5 years ago. I quit my highpaying job and its been fun for awhile, but since the pandemic hit I'm finding zero work. I keep getting passed over after going through all the hoops of tech interviewing. It's exhausting.

One thing you should talk to your doctor about is temporary leave of absence. I took 3 months off although it wasn't nearly enough it was enough to get my shit straight. I quit shortly after because corporate America is a toxic shithole especially for people like us with mental health issues.

Even if you quit and worked part time, the only real option out there is upwork. Pay is crap and you're competing with India.

I would say find a way to stay where you are until this pandemic nonsense is over.

They said it couldn't be done 5 years ago.

i tried this on an old google phone. worked fine. was pretty easy to setup actually. the only problem i had was no good spotify or map app. That's the main reason I use a $1200 phone.

Depends if Trump is still in office and influences her.

My process is easy. 30 minute phone call with them showing me what they've done recently in the relevant stack. I don't believe in coding challenges. Just show me the code.

I recorded a couple of videos documenting my job hunting process. my friend who is a VP at a major HR company told me to take it off my profile because nobody would hire me. I refused. He has shown the video to all his product managers and they are making sweeping changes to their product because of it.
