I have the same worry :/

Story 1: Make a point of asking about agenda if sent an invite that doesn't include one.

TL;DR; 1) Reduce stress. 2) Seek help. 3) Exercise.

Sounds like a stress induced anxiety attack. You need to remove yourself from the work that's causing it (easier said than done) and get some help. Try getting a referral from your GP, or go straight to seeing a psychotherapist or similar, depending on the health care system in your country. Exercise is a fantastic antidepressant, though it's probably the last thing on your mind right now. Even just a short walk or a couple of pushups. *Something* is better than nothing!

You could become chronically fatigued and suffer from memory loss, etc. if left untreated so you really need to deal with this asap.

Good on you to ask here for suggestions.

Almost - it's Ctrl+CCC, then Ctrl+C.

Then curse as VS copies the nothingness you had highlighted.

Then Ctrl+CCCC and Ctrl+V v e r y c a r e f u l l y.

I'm assuming they were oblivious to what happened over the weekend.

Another cause of lower back pain can be short hip flexors. Quad and hip flexor stretches will remedy if this is the cause.

Also, back pain is almost never a serious medical condition, and will be helped by pretty much any exercise - walking, ab workouts, stretching, anything. Occasionally standing at your desk might even be enough.

@Lensflare It's easier to write by hand (while straight lines are easier to chisel into a stone monument) and then some king told us to use lowercase because he liked to decide what things were fashionable.

Blame the Romans, who were the ones to introduce lowercase to the Latin alphabet.

*barf*

Mine started off by listing everything I'd achieved, "well done, we give you a raise of X". Which meant I had nothing to add to negotiate a bigger raise. Sniped!

Works on my machine

@C0D4 Thank you! Only available in phone app though, not web version where I was looking <insert einstein's definition of insanity>

Oh they know, they won't tell you where you went wrong for security reasons.

Are you having that with the obligatory deep fried Mars bar?

Earl grey with milk here, btw.

You never know, they may have actually double checked and actively decided they only needed the first part, without the id.

I like code reviews, it's useful. Someone explains to me why they prefer a particular solution == I learn something. Either about them as a person or about my job.

"People" is your problem here. Or "person".

Tell them so, it is your duty to humankind! I try to do my bit :)

Sweden:

It is hard to find a job if you don't speak the language. Easier if your English is very good, and you're looking for a technical role which isn't customer facing. It's difficult, but not impossible, to get a job with no previous work experience in your field. But maybe you have some, or can polish your CV to look like you do :P Some companies also put a lot of emphasis on having a degree.

The above observations are in comparison with the UK market, I have in-depth experience of both.

@darksideofyay Whaaaat... did he out of spite?

What the what, why would the team get fired because of boss going AWOL? I'm missing something here, perhaps I'm in the wrong part of the world. Glad you kept yours though!

@2Fdev2Ftcsh Yeah, I went to one of those in 1997.

So... you defriend all your friends because of one idiot?

Commented out a unit test to keep Jenkins happy.

@rutee07 No need to argue with anyone. "Gain a bit more experience and you'll see my point", I don't see as particularly constructive. It's their opinion that coding in your native language is always wrong, but it isn't the absolute truth.

@Fast-Nop No cards being played here. My first comment was that code in your native language doesn't prove you're a noob. To which you responded I should get some more experience. My avatar is female + condescending comment... I call a spade a spade. You may find this concept difficult to grasp, but *drum roll* your life experience isn't actually gospel and others' may be different. Judging by your comments your "real world" seems awful small.

@Fast-Nop I can't help but feel there is a bit of mansplaining going on here. In many countries - I've been to a few of them myself - you _can_ get a dev job not speaking English, but that's beside the point. The code in the picture is not nonsense, it just has variable names in Romanian (?).

@Fast-Nop Don't worry, I have 20 years experience. Try working in 1) an English speaking country, 2) international company in non-English speaking country, and 3) government agency in non-English country, add some humility and then get back to me. For an absolute beginner, e.g. a student, a language that makes sense to them gives the best learning experience.

@Fast-Nop Rubbish. Code in whatever language works for your organisation/students. Or whatever the coding standard at your place of work dictates.
