Ask HN: How do you tackle your own negativity?
25 by c7DJTLrn | 14 comments on Hacker News.
I've noticed that the majority of my own comments here on HN have a negative spin on them and a lot of my blog posts unfortunately are very ranty. I guess to others this can make me look obnoxious. At the same time, I struggle to suppress my own negativity and feel like I need to get it out. Does anybody else feel this way? How do (or don't) you tackle it?

Ask HN: I'm 10 years into CS career, but rarely code anymore. Is this normal?
47 by maxdoop | 29 comments on Hacker News.
I graduated with CS degree in 2012. Worked as intern doing web dev, then moved to enterprise Java shop at large corp. Then, spent 4 years at consulting firm coding in variety of technologies. I now work at another large enterprise, and find myself being more "architect" than "developer". I spend time discussing vendors, high-level design, architectural decisions between domains, and just more overall "steering" strategy than coding. Is this normal? And further -- is this "OK"? Some more context: I enjoy my work; I especially enjoy being involved in the higher-level issues and strategy. I enjoy working with other decision makers, and might even enjoy it more than the hands-on coding work I used to do. However, I worry that I'm losing my edge. If I want to job switch, I'd be fucked on the LeetCode stuff. I could study it no problem, but I'm curious how much pure coding skills impact my career trajectory. As it stands, I'm not entirely sure where I'd move next but I want to ensure my skills are valuable (e.g. I don't want to become stale!)

Ask HN: Is the Great Resignation in tech real? If so, why?
28 by noobhacker | 21 comments on Hacker News.
According to the media and from watching my professional circle, it seems that many are indeed changing jobs with significant pay raises--the so-called Great Resignation. I'd like to hear from HN about job changes and raises. Anecdotes are welcome, but ideally one of us works in HR and has systematic data. But more importantly, I'd like to think through the reasons driving the Great Resignation. Below are several explanations with my own assessments. 1. People die from Covid, reducing the labor force. -> Irrelevant for tech workers 2. People get large checks from the gov and are not pressured to find job. -> Irrelevant for tech workers 3. People avoided changing jobs during the pandemic. So the high turnover now is simply making up for low turnover in 2020. -> This does explain the high turnover, but not the significant raises. Indeed, the number of workers and jobs remains the same--people are shuffling between places. To be convinced of this theory, I'd like to see that raises are flat. 3. Senior workers are retiring early due to pandemic-related revelation. Mid-level workers are thus getting more promos than usual. -> Seems plausible. To be convinced, I need to see mid-level workers getting raises, and entry-level workers NOT getting raises. 4. [My theory] Remote work allows better matching of people and jobs. Imagine that person A can deliver lots of value to company B, but is hitherto prevented to do so due to location. With remote work, Person A can now work for Company B and get paid higher accordingly. -> To be convinced, I need to see that remote job offers have higher comp vs comparable non-remote job offers. If this theory is true, then the Great Resignation/Remote Work makes the job market more efficient, creates value for society, and should be celebrated by employees and employers alike. 5. [My theory] The pandemic pushes society forward in terms of tech adoption, making tech workers even more valuable than before. -> Seems plausible, since tech has become more valuable as a whole (e.g. stock price), not just salary. If this theory is true, then it is again a good thing for both tech workers and the broader society.
