A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Software Developer. I try to get at least one thing done a day at work. Low hanging fruit first. A day may be a feature request, a meeting to go over new features/bugs in a system. I do maybe 4 hours of actual coding a day. But I do save the entity I work for literal millions/hours a year automating some of their workflows. I open source a large part of the work I do, which is supported by my employer, so thats nice.
I am pretty blessed honestly. Its a good gig.
Curious - how does the open sourcing part of the gig work?
I make a useful thing at work. I make it public as a library. Everyone profits. Thats about it.
The only hard part is to make sure work is ok with me open sourcing whatever im building out. Sometimes Ill need to sanitize a couple of things, but thats about it.
