  • I was trying to overtake a car on a narrow street with just two lanes going in opposite directions. I was way above the speed limit and another car was coming at me. Luckily, the other driver had noticed an idiot ahead and braked. I barely avoided them as I rejoined my lane in a narrow gap between two cars.

    As soon as it had ended, I realized how stupid and dangerous it was. I could’ve died and killed innocent people. What scares me the most is that every other person on the road is the same human species as me. People make these idiotic decisions in a split second, without thinking, and you read about yet another horrific crash on the news. I was very lucky not to cause one.

    Now I employ a very different approach to driving.





  • Projects get donations and grants, some developers are on salary at corporations that contribute to open source. Even if you’re developing a small project that doesn’t generate any money, you’re getting paid with experience that can help you grow as a professional. Some people simply enjoy what they’re doing and that’s a great return.
