@kefimochi A popular option is going from a big tech company to a small. A senior engineer in Big Tech can become a principle at small tech.

TIL about Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) a disorder characterized by extreme uncontrollable anxiety in the face of anything perceived as a "demand." Those with PDA may try to avoid not only the demands of others but also the demands of their own body such as for hunger or sleep.
A team of leading sleep researchers from the British Sleep Society have called for the government to abolish the twice-yearly clock changes in the UK due to the adverse effects on sleep and circadian health
People who underestimate the value of years/decades of experience are just coping for the fact they can’t hire experienced engineers. Because any experienced engineer worth their salt won’t work for stupid people.

@jsngr Why? I never understood why you'd want this. Figma is great for visuals, but it’s static and lacks the complexity of real browser environments.

The team has been working on this insane codemod tool for v4 🤯
I just updated our new Radiant template from v3 to v4 in a single command, and the upgrade is perfect, including migrating everything from a JS config to a CSS config.
Have to make a demo video tomorrow!
