I’m a newly graduated software developer with a BS in computer science trying to continue learning and find some direction despite being old enough that I should have some idea by now
Honest question for #Java #developers:
When did #Spring or #SpringBoot become synonymous with Java? I use Java in my job for several things, but it usually is used with Tomcat here, but I rarely see mention of one without the other lately.

#math questions for the nerds! In simple terms, who can explain why !0 = 1? I’m having a debate with a coworker because I can’t wrap my head around the concept. #mathematics #compsci #calculus

It's been awhile! I see nothing but doom and gloom regarding the job market for developers lately (especially newbs like me!). Let me see/hear something that... isn't? #developers #jobmarket #opentowork #hype

#jobhunt question. I don’t care what industry you’re in or aiming for, but who can explain why job postings ask what is the maximum you’d accept? Who would say “I don’t want more money than $X? It just seems weird to me… #hr #lookingforanswers #opentowork

Question for my fellow #developers : How do you respond to people saying the job market is "near impossible" to get into as a new developer these days?
For any who see this, please share. I'm really curious about it as I hear it a lot myself!

I took a 3 day “stay-cation” last week, and return to work tomorrow. Sometimes it’s a good idea to just… relax.

There’s a guy I talk to on discord I went to school with. We have similar career goals, however he has made MUCH more headway in reaching his goals. I’ve seen his resume and he has much more background than me! It’s so hard not to compare yourself to others, but we must….

After a week of not feeling well, and another just.... busy and not knowing anything to write about, I'm still here. I still never know what to post about on any social media, even personal accounts. Maybe why I don't use them much anymore? I'm trying, but it's tough!

Yesterday I posted about networking and how tough it is to network when you’re introverted. I have 10 followers here partially because I am one such person. I would like to change that! So if you too are a shy introvert, especially in the tech industry, give me a follow or share this post!

Happy Monday!
Let's talk networking!
I, like many developers or even computer science/software dev/ etc students, am terribly shy and as such not great at marketing! How do you get past that invisible wall?

I never know what to say on here, or social media as a whole really. I’m just a new developer trying to learn in a world telling me not to bother since either “no one writes their own code anymore” or “AI will replace you”

Networking as a #developer is tough! The profession brings a low of reclusive individuals (myself included) and I’m not good at meeting people!

One advantage to working in an educational institution, is the time off. I don’t return to work until the new year, and hopefully I’ll be spending the time practicing coding and working on the things I don’t normally have time for.

Before my last manager left I asked her for advice on projects and she suggested I design “something involved and more complex that shows what I can do”, but I never have project ideas that you don’t see 99 times out of 100 portfolios. I’m open to ideas! Please? #programming #cscareer #projecthelp

My company just let go a very capable and excellent interim manager on Friday. They already have a new contractor. There’s a secret meeting Friday to “restructure” my whole department, but no plans to fire anyone. How screwed am I?

Being one who lives in/near Baltimore, stuck in traffic on my way to work. I can’t decide if the increased commute is from the rain, or fallout from the #KeyBridge incident…. #Baltimore #Developer

Developer question: I have a disagreement with the senior devs at my job. They insist that most organizations just use 3rd party software so “actual” developers are more of a rarity and the title “programmer” is basically a website administrator. I disagree. Thoughts?

Hot take: AI is a great tool, and if used properly can help you become a better developer. However as anyone who has used it can attest, it will never replace us fully. (developers specific)

At work I’ve been tasked with creating a relatively simple api. I was given an architecture to build off of, and despite it being a fairly simple api, I’m having more trouble with it than I should. It the first time I’ve made an api, but it reminds me I still have a lot to learn #softwaredevelopment
