This pattern is crazy, or I'm an idiot - Learning Domain-Driven Design by Vlad K [0:00-5:01]

I hear talking like the 100x developer and I like people just point out on Twitter like, okay, 100x, that means that you can get done in two days, but you previously took a year to do. And like, once you start putting in like concrete terms, like that's insane. That's laughable. Right? Hey there, this is Book Overflow, this podcast for software engineers, buy software engineers for every week. We read one of the best single books in the world, an effort to improve our craft. I am Carter Morgan. I'm joined here as always. I'm a co-host Nathan Dupes. How are you doing, Nathan? Doing great. Hey, everybody. Well, as always, make sure to like, comment, subscribe, share the podcast with friends and co-workers, join the Discord. Anything you can to help the podcast grow. And some professional news for me, nothing crazy, but I was promoted this week at work, which is exciting stuff. That's awesome. Yeah. Title bump or what would you get? Yeah. Official to principle engineer. Nice. Congratulations. Congratulations. Thank you. Thank you. It's a good team. I like the team I'm on. And yeah, if you connect with me on LinkedIn, you can know all of my professional updates. I will say to anyone trying to connect with me on LinkedIn, please just put, like, I listen to the podcast and the connect note, because like, have the requests that come in, have that, and then half are just random people. And I can't accept you if you're just a random person. If you just say I listen to the podcast, I will accept your connection. I have a, I have a habit of accepting almost anybody in which a decent number of crypto scammers, which then I just have fun with and report them and investigate what they're up to. It's been, it's actually been a lot of fun. It's like a little hobby of mine to see if we can play a cat and mouse game of like, what for sell website and GitHub org they're using and filling out reports. It's been fun. So if you're crypto scamer out there, come and reach out to me on LinkedIn. Okay, but this is a problem because the other heuristic I use for just accepting connections is if they're a mutual connection with you, because I think you're if they're trying to connect with both of us, then they're probably going to podcast, but it's not, do not trust my connections on LinkedIn, because I, yeah, I have, I have like a hate, hate relationship with LinkedIn, but that's for another conversation. I had a recruiter reach out to me on LinkedIn, I was supposed to years ago during COVID when the market was super hot. And we were like chatting about a role. And I was like, and I were talking about money and like, what I need is like this much. And he starts like demeaning me. He's like, ha ha idiot thinks he can get that much when he only has this like it was really, really bizarre. I'm like, I already make more than what you're offering. And he's like, so you could only get this. That's all your worth. And then like, it was weird. I want to I was a punk about it and like found like the VP of his recruiting firm and sent the screenshots. I was like, oh, yeah. This guy's insane. That's that's wow. No, it's right. We're in a mad world. And I do think that recruiters are in this like impossible job where it's like a lot like real estate agents where there's a few amazing ones. And then there's like most of them, which are terrible and should not be in that job. And I feel like it's the same with recruiters like I've met recruiters that are just top notch. Amazing. Everyone wins. And then there's a bunch who like, I think want recruiter like the recruiter bonuses that they get if they're good. Right. Right. And just have no business being in the business. Yeah. I'm generally positive on recruiters. I'm like, I'm not going to be mad at someone trying to give me a job, but yeah, you'll find people. I think like that who like you'd be better off like selling instead of recruiting and even then you might not be a good salesman. Yeah. I think I think a really good salesperson could would I think that's a transferable skill. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, I'm not either of those. And so, yeah, I've had good experiences. I've had bad experiences and yeah, salty, salty people are something, something to deal with. My wife and I talk about that just because like, you know, with AI, I'm like, well, maybe I'll take our job. I tell her, I'm like, there's only two real jobs. There's building things and selling things. Like right now, I'm building things. And if building things is no longer a job, I'll just start selling things like, but as we 've discussed at length on this podcast, I don't think we're in anything worse case scenario, I think I might just buy a TIG welder and learn how to, you know, well, don't even remember something. There we go. Yeah. I'd like to see an LLM. On a stay work. On a stay work. All right. Well, let's talk about the book this week back at it again with learning domain driven design by Vlad Kononov.
