tomekw·3 months ago·discussAda is underrated. I am spending lots of my time writing tons of open source software in Ada, mostly for myself, though.
tomekw·4 months ago·discussI used to BE a software engineer. Then, I experienced a 3 years long burnout and got professional help. Now I work AS an Engineering Manager.You are not your job. Do not put your ego in what you do. That’s something I discuss a lot during my 1:1s.
tomekw·4 months ago·discussFor this purpose I wrote an app called Five Years Back: I can write one entry daily, but I can see what I wrote on this day for the past 5 years. My writing streak is… 1399 days as of today. Only me is using the app.Good job and good luck!
tomekw·4 months ago·discussI’m not trying to compete with Alire. I do Ada for fun and for the sake of doing Ada.I want to go back to fundamentals and learn by doing how foundational things work. So the plan is to, kind of, create my own programming world in Ada.I may come up with a way to transfer Alire packages to Tada, I may not :)This is, for now, for my personal use, but I couldn’t be more happy if someone else finds it useful :)
