It's not impossible, but I wouldn't say it's worth it. From my experience, there is more ageism in programming than there is in management so it would be even more difficult to find work, especially without prior experience.

> It may cause digestive distress. "People with dairy allergies or trouble digesting lactose [milk sugar] can experience gastrointestinal discomfort if they use a milk-based protein powder,"

What alternative do they suggest?

- 6 ounces of plain Greek yogurt

- a cup of milk

I know there are lactose free version of those, but there are also lactose free versions of the proteins...

True, but I see a trend where everybody is trying to "hack" reading by listening to audio books on 3x or other tricks which is a complete nonsense for professional books and absorbing the information.

What's the point? If you enjoy reading and reading for fun then you'll just read as much as is fun for you. If you're reading professional books, then the quantity doesn't matter. I would rather spend a year with a single book like "Designing Data-Intensive Applications" revisiting chapters and reiterating same things to really absorb that knowledge than rush 1 book per week/month/whatever.

I have one but it's been sitting in a drawer for a long time now. I went back to iPad Pro with Apple Pen as it's much easier to navigate around and I enjoy the color screen much more. It also allows me to use Miro or similar whiteboard tool. I personally regret buying it. The lag is more noticeable on an iPad, but that doesn't bother me.

Wow, 2 major things introduced over 8 years and 4 different state management libraries and people complain it's too much?

Do they pay anything to the maintainers of the packages they depend on?

I don't think that's possible since types are not present at the runtime. They are just stripped away during compilation
