I think if you're experiencing burnout, you'd rather do something else that what you're doing right now.
Of course, I have not been working long enough to feel the actual burnout.
But if I ever did, I would surely spend some time doing what I want along with doing my job.
That would require me to reduce the time I spend on my job but I believe I can plan to get a balance.

tbh i don't work in software anymore. that's how i handled burn out.
i've been free from it for like a decade now. woo. yay me
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

After years of hard work, and the death of my rich great uncle, I am now a billionaire!

When my rich uncle gets out of the poor house, I will join you.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Good luck! It's a very special day!

Filed under April Fool's - title
I don't know what jackass organization is responsible for driver updates during Windows update, but if I turn off this update, it's because I have a good elephanting reason for doing so. The fact that you dumb***ts keep turning it back on, I want to come to your office and slap you until you cry...
It used to be that "drivers - see the manufacturer" was MS's total f'ing copout from it's stupid crap that it pulls. I swear I want to find a few MS managers and go a few rounds. If I change the GD group policy don't un-change it.

Remember when Windows 95 came out and we all thought M.S. was on our side at least?
|
|
|
|

The elephant?
Win 95 was the point when I knew that they had totally lost the plot.
|
|

|
oh.. so Win3.1 was so much better?! And everything went downhill ever since?

I didn't do development on Windows 3.1, 95, 98, 2000, Xp... I used them as necessary.
I cut my teeth on X Windows, Motif and C. I was appalled when I ran into Win32. I was less appalled at mfc. Running OpenVMS, Ultrix (google it), Sun/os, HPUX, AIX, these NEVER went down. EVER. Well, there was that time when the RAID was unplugged, but hey, reasonable....
This crap is from management and "policy" decisions.
Seriously, I want to remove the blood pressure medicine from the MS managers making these asinine decisions. I want to sit in their office and right as they are about to push the Send button, I'm going to pull the f'ing power cord and slap them with it (sorry JSOP, you gave me inspiration). I want to do this until they weep and surrender or have an aneurysm.

So you're saying that MS went wrong when they licensed Xenix to SCO and focused on DOS? Ahh.. MS Xenix ... Unix running in 256Kb RAM with a 10 MB HD. Hard to believe. But true.

there's that and then the full retard on Windows 10....

Luxury!
PDP-11, 128kb, 2.5MB disk pack (yes, removable hard disks, 2 drives but one only worked most of the time.)
Even ran in 64k (though a bit unstable) when one of the core mem cards got a bit flaky and was sent to DEC for repair (yes they actually repaired memory back then.)
Most of the time though ran AT&T Unix v6, v7 worked bt too much of a memory hog and didn't provide anything new that was required.

We once had six guys working, all at once, on a PDP-11 with RSX-11M+ and 1MB of RAM. You could look at the memory layout display and see six text editors open, each using just a little bit of memory. I thought it was impressive back then and even more so now.
