POV: You wake up, open your laptop, and see your client changed the entire database to a completely different one overnight… on production day...and he is asking you to make sure everything works
Some life lessons I’ve been learning from my code lately
* The same way your Go server panics when the error handling is poor, the reason why you panic sometimes might be cuz of poor stress-handling system.
Turns out life also needs explicit handling:
if somethingGoesWrong {
handleItThisWay()
}
// unhandled cases = panic()
Ignoring errors doesn’t make them disappear...runtime panic awaits you anyway.
* Just like separation of concern helps in better manageability of the code, modularizing your life, and doing only one thing at a time(not multitasking) helps better manage life.
Separation of concerns could also mean not letting personal stress leak into work decisions. And when you’re not working, shut down the “work process.”
That way, you can debug one system without breaking the other.
I have a friend with crazyyy consistency... LeetCode (over a year streak), Duolingo (over 2 years streak)… you name it, she's consistent. and there's even one thing she's been consistently doing since birth. which is a 22-year streak… and that is: being single

In a life full of uncertainties, it's the “I’ll figure it out" mindset what gets us far

POV: you’re desperate enough to intentionally skip Duolingo lessons… cuz that’s the only chance you might see an “I miss you” message on your phone
