Notes On Work - by Caleb Porzio

I mean, I'm not saying I'm mj...

I dare you to listen to this

The title says it all

I don't like when people pick favorites. Maybe it's just me

You work really really hard... and dream of what it will be like when you're done... then you're done... and it doesn't feel that way

It's an inevitability

I'm fighting the good fight over here

Hear me complain about people complaining

Solidness as a quality of code

I would have spit out my Ovaltine if you had told 15 year old Caleb he'd be doing what he's doing now.

What will I fill the next 10 years of my career with?

Just be around longer than everyone else

On paying for things...

Fresh starts are a magical thing...

Let's talk taxes and accountants and how much of a schlep I am

A thought on stand-up comedy and surfing

My parents always ask "how's work?" and I never have a satisfying answer. Until now... dun dun dun

Let me tell you about mistakes I've discovered I made while refactoring...

Let's explore a fun analogy

Take things as far as you can take them yourself.

All new things become not new and that is something I'm forever learning to deal with

You have to climb the hill to see what's on the other side...

...that is the question

Yeah, lately I've been feeling pretty good.

We got snow and we don't care who knows

One time

Let's talk about the fundamental differences and their tradeoffs...

I got logged out of my Hey account and now I'm remembering how nice it was not care about emails

A refactoring story...

Crazy effective way to solve problems wew

...when shilling something

I waited on something, sucks...

Fun stories about me refactoring Livewire's validation system...

How to win friends and influence people, jk.

A tale of a big bad bug...

Grow where you're planted... yo...

Where have these been all my life?

They totally are

Prepping for Laracon and thinking about how nice it is to have a circle of friends who will help a brother out.

What a title amirite

Yeah...

Let's talk about judging other people and related paradoxes...

A story of me solving one of the most nagging, persistent code problems I've faced over the last year or so.

Let's talk about the latest evolution of my little hooks pattern

Let's talk about this little pattern I use EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME

One of the everlasting systems design dichotomies (that's a lot of big words, ew)

That is the question

Some advice is too much too soon

I don't want to try to summarize this one lol.

If I had to identify with one thing, it'd be that.
