Sorry I didn't make myself clear in the submission, I'm a developer and my bosses (product manager) keep getting fired/reassigned.

I have a similar system but with the addition of an easily searchable 'reference' system. It serves to extract ideas from what I would normally confuse with tasks, in order to keep my task system lean and approachable.

I took it from David Allen's 'Getting Things Done'. I'd recommend it for anyone looking to start or adopt a similar system.

Tech debt created from old business decisions.

You want to know why we added the isPancake method? You'll have to ask Lucy who's back from holiday in two weeks, who mentioned talking to Greg the intern from last summer, who said his old manager Anna said it's very important.

Please don't modify it until you've done that.

I can’t think of 100 positions near me that suit my skillset let alone 1000-1500. Personally it sounds like your shotgun/brute-force approach is spreading yourself thin and employers aren’t finding value in a ‘jack of all trades’. I’d suggest working on personal projects with tech that you’re interested in: it’ll strengthen your expertise, give you something to talk about regarding your time off, and be a nice activity between the applying for positions.

Good luck, and I’m sure even if it might take some time it’ll work out :).

I have frequent problems with the spotify app on Android where I have to reboot the app in order for the cast or volume request to be received. On the other hand I barely have any issues with the youtube app.

Perhaps it comes down to the development of the individual apps themselves?

I can't comment about the rate of muggings, but ATMs are everywhere which would promote holding less cash for shorter periods of time. It's not uncommon to visit a bank in the centre city where most of the 5-6 ATMs are full of people withdrawing cash (which is a stark difference between more cash-digitised nations).

Are you interested in freelancers for the 'Frontend Engineer' position?

I agree it's important to reduce code review sizes, but I try to avoid reviews that end up leaving incomplete code in production such as having individual domain changes and feature flags. If a feature is cancelled before it's completed there will be unused code checked-in - which to me is technical debt.

I prefer to split domain changes into different commits on the pull request so they can be inspected individually - eg #1 Create API, #2 Consume API with model, #3 View Logic. And for feature flags, try to figure out a possible fully implemented subset of features - eg show new model properties to the user that will in the future be editable.

I'd personally love to see a weekly recap hosted on youtube and embedded in your site. You could do a 2 minute interview each, and further down the track start including screencaps.
