* Go to concerts, fantastic way to break out of your shell

* Get out on the water or underwater (if you dive)

* Find events to go to in your area (pick anything, doesn't matter, if it's going on try and go do it and try and do it with people)

Every now and then I enjoy the opportunity to build things without planning around them. No ceremony, no tickets - just pure code and building things people are interested in or are looking to solve problems.

I'm at a weird point in my career where every development process stresses me out, no matter what. Guess that's burnout.

I'm in the same boat. 15 years of work and I'm very burnt out now. Any development process stresses me out these days.

I've been doing it nearly 20 years, and I'm very done with it. But I need to save for retirement and I don't have anything else I want to do more. So I'm just apathetically collecting a paycheck.

If you focus on the career part, you can increase your network and find a much less stressful position. Last two gigs I've had I wasn't even on call (lol, imagine!), and found remote work. So better opportunities are out there if you work at it.

I'm in the same boat, this is a requirement to save for retirement and there's very little else that can compete - despite the fact that inflation is outpacing nearly all the efforts I've made thus far to have a reasonable retirement.

Did you start your career before covid? If not, didn't you already experience and endure 5 days a week in the office and not quit your career?

I've been in tech for 20 years now. Inflation has outpaced everything

I'm very close to being completely done with tech. This whole career has been stressful and the ROI is debatable

Chromecast is a household name, what a weird thing to kill that off

Hi from the Segment Anything team! Today we’re releasing Segment Anything Model 2! It's the first unified model for real-time promptable object segmentation in images and videos! We're releasing the code, models, dataset, research paper and a demo! We're excited to see what everyone builds! https://ai.meta.com/blog/segment-anything-2/

Is there a reason Texans can't use the demo?
