Ask HN: Suggest me some good books on work ethics
2 by aryamaan | 0 comments on Hacker News.
I have found that well-written books help me a lot getting back on track and also getting better at some values. These days I feel in need of some inspirations, anecdotes, and experiences about work ethics and productivity. If it's by someone in the tech domain that would be an added excellence. Thanks, fellow kind people.

Change within the Tech industry is rapid. Many business concepts, software stack, programming languages, hardware have changed quite a bit. What are the things that have not changed and will continue to be stable? i.e. People would always want faster software

New ask Hacker News story: The Emotional Engineer
The Emotional Engineer
3 by petoskystone | 2 comments on Hacker News.
I'm not the first to admit it, but I am an emotional engineer. In an industry where many engineers are protrayed as heads down, headphones on, keyboard clacking individuals...sometimes I find it hard to navigate the emotions of the day to day. College and studying on your own will teach you the ins and out of writing code and having proper syntax, but it does not teach communication or human interaction. Sometimes it seems like simple interactions don't even phase my coworkers, but to me the emotions hit hard. Like that time I spent weeks on code and met with my manager all for my manager to say "cool. Did you grab your next jira card?" I invested days on days and poured my heart into this code and my manager communicates as if he could care less. Or the other time when I helped fix my coworkers code, made a pr for it, and upon review the only thing my coworker had to say was how the white space is messed up. Not even a thank you for assisting with the code. I hope for future engineers that someone creates a resource to help teach engineers how to navigate their emotions and communications. Is it just me? Have others observed this at their companies and careers?

Ask HN: Should I leave a dev job where I'm paid for doing almost nothing?
12 by asteria | 18 comments on Hacker News.
I’ve been very dilemmatic about my current career situation and I’m hoping I can get some advice from the people here at HN. I've joined my current company 3years ago as a web developer. By the end of my first year with the company, they decided to offshore most of their technical work. I was subsequently promoted to be the project manager to manage the offshore vendors. On paper, I’m currently a project manager. But I'm really just a middleman between the internal users and the offshore vendors. On average, I only spend about 3 hours a day sending emails to vendors. I usually spend the rest of the hours doing my own things. I've lots of freedom at managing my time too! Because I can have long lunch breaks, I've recently started moonlighting through a freelance assignment to teach programming during lunch time at places within 30mins distance from my office. It's crazy how I get to do my own things during office hours while still getting paid! I literally have zero stress and I’m so happy every day. It doesn’t feel like a job at all! However, lately, I’ve started to worry if this is going to hurt my technical career in the long run. I'm pretty sure my current job has nothing great to boast about at interviews when I've to move on to a new job. Although I still continue to learn newer tech on my own such as React, Angular, etc, it's worrying to wonder how much of these counts as real experiences when I really need to find a new job. A part of me feels my current job is a rare find and I can't bear to just walk away. It feels silly to find a more demanding job just for “work experiences” when I can earn additional income through freelance gigs during office hours! But another part of me is also telling myself I should leave this job asap for the long-term good. Has anyone been through a job like this before? What path did you take and how did things turn out? Would you recommend that I stay at my current job for all the perks?

Ask HN: Alternative to Google Services?
11 by gonvaled | 14 comments on Hacker News.
I am heavily invested in Google Services, both on desktop and mobile. The current restrictions placed on Android devices have made clear that this reliance is very risky. I do not like being played as a pawn on third parties conflicts. I would like to replace my use of Google services with alternatives. Specifically, by order of importance: - GMail - Google Maps - Youtube - Play Store What are my options? For mobile, I would consider continuing to use Android as base OS, since it seems restricting use of it wouldn't be feasible. Replacing Google as search engine was very easy in Chrome: http://bit.ly/2EeMhjV I will try the same on my Android phone later.

I am good at coding but while talking or doing some thing new I lack confidence. So many times when I had to meet someone or talk to someone, I feel worthless and underconfident. I could not able to talk to them properly and hesitate. For eg: I lack confidence while meeting other person like my director and even friends. I somehow feel them superior to me. I have very low self-esteem and confidence. For every new oppurtunity or thing I want to try, I lack confidence and feel I am not good enough. I see my faults in everything. Please give some advice.

Robert Charles: Abortion deeply divides America -- Here's why the debate is suddenly front and center again
Abortion deeply divides Americans. The topic can hardly be raised, without eliciting emotional responses against and for. Since Roe v. Wade, a 1973 Supreme Court decision barring states from restricting abortion, the issue has become overtly political. Now, something new is afoot. The issue seems headed for the Supreme Court – again.
