There's also the idea of productivity in terms of entertainment for mental health so that you don't burn out. The hardest thing for me is finding ways to get rid of some of the things I like since there are so many and finding the most efficient way to learn what I need to move forward since technical ability is what's holding me back. Some advice I've seen is "just build something", but that only works if you know how to build and how to architect and understand the technology you are using. In my opinion, it isn't very useful to just build something that works if you end up doing it in a way that isn't the industry standard. In that scenario, it just feels like a waste of time. Building small things is okay from tutorials, but that also doesn't really teach industry standards or how to architect your own project. Now it's about reading a book on design patterns and trying to implement those. I've also tried to break things up into different days, but then it's easy on Wednesday to forget what I learned on Monday. The current schedule is to read for an hour, then do some leetcode questions for an hour, then tutorials for two hours, but that's not sustainable with a full time job. It's all a bit overwhelming.

I think the last question was implying that Amazon is a bad company with unethical people running it, so why would you work for them which indirectly supports those unethical people. It's something I've run into as well with the ethics of programming for certain companies and our responsibility as devs in making the world a better place.

Do you have any recommendations for books or anything for architecting a project? I see tutorials where people are making diagrams that seem really useful for planning a project, but not on how to do that.

It could just be for this video that you sat that way, but some back workouts and chest stretching goes a long way to fix that slouch problem if that's what it is. If not, then of course ignore :)

@vancouverbill Amazon is certainly innovative in a way and convenient. Another unethical thing people would point out though is how they've put so many small businesses out of business and manipulated their site to kill off other sellers on their platform by making a slightly different version of it that they give more promotion to when people search for a product. But yeah, meta is definitely bad as well.

Is the 4 hours without breaks, or does it account for standing up to stretch and things like that?

@NYgasman8 Yeah, I was mentioning that splitting my learning into different days makes it hard for me to remember what I learned. If I go over one concept on Monday, then a different one on Tuesday, I probably will have forgotten the Monday lesson mostly by Wednesday

Weird to have Besos as your corporate idol considering that Amazon only got as big as it is by exploiting a large number of people
