seeing news like this really brings me down, no matter what i hate when employees take the hit and i sure hope they can find another job sooner rather than later.

Been there and done that, it is key to manage expectation with both companies AND yourself. Make sure every assignment is very well thought out and planned, try to minimize long meetings by doing more small ones asking stuff like : what was achieved yesterday, what will we achieve today, and do I need help from anyone?.

Make sure to get rest and definitely try to scale your operation and avoid moving work to weekends because it will get out of control very fast. I made the mistake of taking more than i could chew and had to let go one of my clients because I was so tired i couldn't keep the quality of my work just as I wanted to.

This holds true for Japanese companies outside Japan, my wife was working as a developer for TOTO Mexico and they had a lot of personnel rotation because of these differences, mainly the meeting culture, it would often get in the way of the work and people ended up quitting or getting fired. It was however a good experience because of the high quality and standards it kept up with the product.

Yes, that's a thing but at this point imagine just how much more confusion it could create if they change the name.

After so many years microsoft finally presenting their tools in a more moden way. Never been a huge fan of .NET but i can't deny is a great tool hopefully people try it out on more platforms.

I once was offered a position for Java, passed the technical tests and all, turns out the job was all using C# and .NET, thankfully i was skilled enough to get the hang of it in a few days but it was very weird; how can people like this get paid for such terrible performance.

This is incredible, looking forward for the release of the engine, what is it that you'd be doing with openAI?
