lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/10/2026my workplace is awesome, and they think i’m awesome too. my director wants to meet with me later this week to discuss how many steps up he should advocate for me to be promoted after the holidays. i am happy and grateful 010
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/10/2026*one year later* i have been employed as an engineer for 5 months now. i love it so much 110
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 25/09/2025the quality of instruction as well as just generally being very good for me to be here 010
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 25/09/20254 days into bootcamp and it is hard, but it is very good 110
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 11/09/2025no longer dreading getting back to it fr. now it’s just an annoying thing i nevertheless intend to do, and am lowkey looking forward to doing? emotions can be so weird sometimes lmao 000
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 11/09/2025just realized that it took me so long to to break down and do this largely because i simply was not allowing myself to acknowledge that it’s annoying and i hate it. as soon as i complained about it, i felt less averse. 130
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 11/09/2025just had an idea for a practice project that i think i can build that would do something i think is actually useful this is exactly what i needed. cannot wait to start figuring out how to do it tomorrow 010
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 11/09/2025but i am proud of myself for assigning me “as many arbitrary for loops to nowhere as it takes to stop fucking them up” 100
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 11/09/2025my entire life i have despised problems for the sake of problems. once i understood multiplication and knew my times tables up through 12 i was not tryna do another multiplication worksheet ever again lmfao 100
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 11/09/2025finally broke down and spent time grinding extremely annoying javascript problems to put in reps on syntax it’s working, obviously. and i feel good about the gains. but i will be glad when i have gotten good enough to practice via actually doing stuff lmao 110
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 08/09/2025just noticed that today is the first day where i’ve been making error messages that amuse me seeing myself start to play is like confirmation that i got this🥲 010
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025either that or something about moving into backend made frontend click. lmao maybe both 000
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025not exaggerating when i say today is the first day of coding practice that has felt genuinely rewarding. i think yesterday’s “troubleshoot my confusion directly” focus, while slow and painful, actually paid off 100
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025dumping “here is what i know, but i can tell i am confused” into gpt is unreasonably effective 010
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025yes! i wasn’t quite seeing the two roles at first, just knew the console kept yelling at me and i had to be mixing something up in my head lmao. eventually i stopped trying to brute force it via reps and told gpt “i think i am confusing something about the braces but idk what” 110
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025meant to signify a piece of code or an object lmao 110
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025i like it! yesterday i had gpt rewrite some of my my code as symbolic “functional units” and label them(eg state, logic, etc), and that helped. also realized that i needed to consistently put my jsx in components rather than the main app bc i’d been obscuring from myself whether the braces were 100
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025lmao it’s so frustrating. i can tell the framework is set up for flexibility and convenience but the same properties are why i keep getting tripped up rn😭 110
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025weirdly backend feels more intuitive than frontend atm. (weird bc i have way more experience with frontend) i expect this to change, though. 000
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025but it’s cool! i can see already how flexible it is, and how much easier to update it is compared to the ancient traditions i’m familiar with(html/css/js) 100
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025i do get it. it’s just… particular. nest-y and shorthand-y and interconnected in such a way that a single misplaced character can break your whole shit. lmfao 100
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025i think i would settle for still feeling comfortable when i inevitably break my apps rather than briefly spiraling about whether my entire understanding is flawed and i’m never gonna get it, lmao 100
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025i think this is mostly in my head, bc i keep making progress. but the feeling of “am i confused or” takes up more of the day than i would prefer 100
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025i feel like as soon as i start to feel comfortable, it’s bedtime. then the next day i spend all day getting to that point again 100
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025grinding fullstackopen in preparation for an assessment prereq for a bootcamp. it has been… a journey. lmao primarily emotionally 110
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025maybe i will do my react noob posting here i don’t care for the kind of attention it attracts on the other site 010
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 07/09/2025telling myself this every time i fuck up the curly braces. “someday i will not have to think about this, and it will be glorious” 120

lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 28/05/2025afaict, the loudest voices about absolutely anything are dumb, but no one gets things done by ignoring the difference between “makes people scared enough to become torch-wielding mobs” and “shows people there’s nothing to be afraid of” 020
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 28/05/2025you don’t listen to them as such, you pay attention to them. understand what they’re afraid of and craft your message accordingly to avoid triggering unnecessary pushback 120
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 10/03/2025i thought it was my app, so i finally updated it, only to discover the platform is just down i traded the bird for the x for no reason!! 020
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 16/11/2024i think it’s okay for only some people to be famous. anyone is free to try to become one of those people if they want(it’s easier than ever before to achieve), but i don’t believe “maximum number of people care clap for me” is a realistic or healthy bar to set as the pinnacle of achievement 100
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 16/11/2024accomplishment and importance so that anything less than wide renown feels like “dying in darkness” 100
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 16/11/2024i guess i disagree. i don’t think humans have the capacity to be invested in the narratives of every other humans, nor do i think it’s healthy to try. tend to fall the other direction: it’s normal and fine that only people who love you are so invested in your story, recalibrate your sense of 100
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 16/11/2024how is it different from just clicking a hashtag? 000
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 16/11/2024you can insert a random person into an existing narrative and engender a profound response(think of the clips of a high school basketball game where a special needs student scores a goal), but some narrative is still required to get people to respond emotionally 110
lamborghinius @sonikudzu.bsky.social · 16/11/2024it’s because the cheering isn’t about the achievement so much as the feelings of the people watching. there is a narrative they’re tuned into, they are cheering at the peak moments in it. a random person doing the same thing does not hit the same unless they’re tuned into a narrative 100
