TS is lipstick on a pig

Very compelling argument.

Thank you so much!

I have the same feeling. Who knew I would be working on PHP in 2023. And surprisingly it's so much better than JS at the backend at least.

So finding a niche. Got it. This does make a lot of sense. Thank you.

Damn, that's quite a journey. So happy to read through it. I think I wouldn't say that I haven't accomplished much because if you go through my LinkedIn and know me personally you would say I am in the top 10% in my country but (very sorry but there is but), it's all spread out. It took me years to consolidate part of that knowledge and build a portfolio that includes one of Big 3 consulting firms and I missed out on building cool stuff in my favorite programming languages and tools. Missed out learning from cool courses and much more. I shouldn't do this with myself because of clinical depression but I can't help it.

Hmm, yes, this is helpful. Thank you.

I couldn't agree more but there is so much stuff to learn about. Also, learning for the sake of learning is great but I do wish to be paid for my ability to learn at a rapid pace which I am struggling with at the moment.

Yeah, it's not about the age but more about the constant nagging feeling that I get. Anyways, I appreciate the good words.

Thank you so very much for sharing story. This is so heartwarming. I will surely keep all of your advice in mind. Thank you again.
