Not too late but later than I should have:

  • To seek professional mental health help
  • To understand that Bisexuality really exists. Growing up and in my teens in media and pop culture it’s seemed that you either were gay or straight, no other option.

I prefer paracetamol since ibuprofen can create secondary effects in the gastric system.

It’s only called champaign if it is the champagne region of France. Otherwise is a sparkling city.

I know the exit.

Never heard of that. When attending a trade school there was never the necessity of a mnemotechnic to know in which direction turn the tool.

As other mentioned this kind of phrase is useless if you are in the opposite side of the thing you want to tighten/loose.

What I always heard is “la regla del destornillador” (the screwdriver rule), as a substitute for the right hand rule.

That’s compressed, and plain text compress very well.

For my master’s final project I downloaded the English Wikipedia and after unzipping it grew quite large. I don’t remember the total size, also it was 2018, it will be larger now.

This. Worked at a consulting firm doing e-commerce for a client. The client always pushed making changes on banners or promotional texts rather than fixing bugs.

There was an issue with the address validator in the checkout (why and how is irrelevant) and it was raised by the QAs, but we were told to fix it in the future, they didn’t see it as a priority, they preferred a checkout that worked most of the time an focus on adding a promo banner.

Now I work in a better place, working on product with stakeholders who don’t prioritise new things over fixing stuff, but we still need to fight to have time allocated for technical improvements that the benefits are not directly evident in the final product.

It gets better as you gain experience and it becomes like a part of you. In the same way you don think about extending the arm, opening and closing the hand when picking an object, when shifting a gear is the same, you don’t perform all the steps or movements like independent tasks that need all your attention, it just becomes “shift up/down”.

In my first practice lesson I panicked with the all things to take care off, and I didn’t move more than five meters in a speed that the needle detected.

The clutch is not something that goes by precision, is about feelings, with the noise from the motor, the clutch pedal vibrations, the response from the vehicle… I is telling you what to do, in the end is feelings and muscle memory.

Take your time to practice and relax.
