I love coding and hope to keep doing it forever. Not sure why everyone assumes you have to switch to management by 35 or risk getting laid off. If you enjoy it, just enjoy it—ignore societal expectations. After all, the world can be pretty superficial.

There’s a rule in the workplace: only if you’re irreplaceable, you won’t get fired. But if you’re always irreplaceable, you’ll never get promoted…If you’re irreplaceable, it means you’re essential for a specific role due to unique skills or knowledge that others don’t have. This makes it risky for the company to promote you out of that position, as finding someone with the same capabilities might be difficult. Thus, being too essential in one role can actually limit your upward mobility.

Just talked to a friend and realized again how much I value the purity of products. I don’t use private APIs, don’t reverse engineer others’ products, and steer clear of anything non-compliant or shady. Not sure when I picked up these principles. Sometimes I think it’s too much, but maybe it’s all for peace of mind?

Xcode is the worst IDE I’ve ever used, bar none. I usually just use it to compile. For everything else, I create a file, open it in VS Code, fire up Copilot, and do my work there. Once I’m done, I switch back to compile and run the simulator.

The higher the level, the less aggressive and more comforting a person is. The lower the level, the more aggressive they are, often coming from the lower echelons of life or understanding. If one’s thoughts are mature enough, they will realize that many things are not about right or wrong, but about perspective. With a sufficient understanding of the world’s complexity, one will not engage in endless disputes, but will embrace an open attitude towards tolerance. When you no longer speak recklessly, and your words are gentle like jade, congratulations, you have reached a higher level in life.
