T.G. I never heard that word.
I was just trying (clumsily) to be a little ironic.

You may never be a full stack developer, but you can easily be a full snack developer.

Some truths about programming:

If it's not documented, it's not useful.

To write fast software, use a slow computer.

Premature optimization is the root of all evil.

Shared mutable state is the root of all evil.

The user is always right.

Software that is designed for someone is more useful than software that is designed for everyone.

Good software can be declared complete in a finite amount of time.

Text is the universal interface.

Software should be able to outlive the author.

I might add more. Feel free to share your own thoughts too.

My ANIO (absolutely not important opinion), which I seldom show (for the reasons obvious). But when I read/hear things like this:
"what I mean is, I cannot work with hopes and dreams. I need tangible features"
- I feel really annoyed.

1. Firefox is the competition relatively to Chrome. (I'll presume you all know what happens when there is no competition.)
You don't like Firefox? Use Pale Moon. You're not thrilled with Pale Moon, get LibreWolf.
2. I do not feed the monster. No Chrome, no Chromium, and no Chromium engine in anything on my computers. And I encourage you to do the same.

3. You only access the internet to read docs and tuts for your work? You could use Lynx, or some other only-text web browser.

I began…

I began traveling at the speed of thought
my body weary my consciousness fraught,
with the realization that we are more
than stardust at our very core.

I began thinking at the speed of thought
as my memory searched for which I sought,
the whole is greater than the sum of its’ parts
it was there I chose to make a start.

My thoughts moving faster than the speed of sound
mere atoms and particles could not be found.
The matter of mind though visible in light
was not what I sought, not now, not quite.

I began thinking at the speed of light
beyond the boundaries of mere sight,
searching for what is at the core
I looked inside the open door.

I began pondering thought itself
not material in nature, I thought to myself.
If matter were all and everything we are,
an evolution to consciousness from a mere star?

I began to see with a spiritual sight
materiality at last, having lost the fight.
Bringing to mind that we are certainly more
than stardust at our very core!
