@alchemistsgamex Çoğu projeden kazanılan para developer hesaplarında duruyor. O kadar minik rakamlar ki çektiğinde vergi ödemek zorunda bile kalmıyorsun 😂

I keep a list called 'Opportunities' where I note down, possible improvements, changes, that are different than regular work.

Having impact and associated goal columns on that list, helps me notice how unimportant my favourite opportunity is.

@levelsio At least he slightly touches the real issue which many similar posts/videos miss.

@akifkadioglu En faydalı laravel komünitesi nerede?
Çoğunluğun olduğu bir platform var mı, öğrenme açısından?

@MentalYatirim_ O rakama ulaştıktan sonra da çok bir şeyler olmuyor gibi, zayıf matematik bilgimle yaptığım hesaba göre.

Bir şeyler dediğim, o rakamdan 5 yıl sonra temettü işe çalışmadan mazbut bir hayat sürmek.

@0xlelouch_ It almost never ends up this way:

Interviewers wouldn’t forget those 2 questions about of a dozen that you couldn’t answer.
They would be surprise “how come no dashboard?!”, they say no to the candidate.

@herseynba O gece Kobe’yi savunmayan kalmadı.
Raptors defalarca savunmasını değiştirdi, kalibre etti oyun içinde.

Olmadı, durduramadılar.

With one simple change, managed growing the number of reviews by 300% (from 4 to 16), while ratings increased by nearly 490% (from 9 to 53).

@oozn Sevmenin diğer bir nedeni, Banks’in inanılmaz bir lirisist olması, rapin temellerine hakim, yetenekli bir icracı olması da olabilir.

After long time I started using #Teams again, it's way worst than I remember.

Teams reminds me that building great software is not only about having resources, chunk of a market or as many features as possible.

@MelihKarakelle 12 yılda hala memnun olmadığın, yadırgadığın, bunu yapamamışlar dediğin ilk 3 şey nedir?

@utkusen Slack ücretine, çalışanların Teams gibi bir ucubeye maruz kalmalarını engellemek ve katlanan iletişim yüküne maruz kalmamak dahilmiş.

New Year’s resolution: I will not tip in any circumstance.

Only exception could be visiting the US.

Let’s see how long I’ll resist the social pressure.

''Politics in the age of short form video favours heightened emotion, ignorance and unevidenced assertions.
Such circumstances are highly propitious for charismatic charlatans.''

I’ve read 10 non-fiction books this year. It’s my personal record in the past five years.

It might be a healthy limit, considering all the context switching and different storylines.

The best part about reading books is that it reduces my screen time.

@alexstyl Engineers who doesn’t care about any other ideas but theirs.
