The author is using field injection and claiming that the field cannot be private. As far as I know he should be using constructor dependency injection and make the field private and final. That way is also easier to write unit tests and maybe make use of interfaces in case he wants to avoid using a mocking framework.

Not only that but if I recall correctly quarkus resolves dependencies and config files at compile time and not at runtime using reflection as spring does.

If I am not wrong this holds true for the switch from Julian calendar to the Gregorian one. Some months were shortened to be synchronised with the new system. And if I am not mistaken Jewish and Arabs do not use the same systems we use for months and years

I went through the same exactly one year ago. I could not sleep, I felt sick at the thought of having to interact with my colleagues and I just couldn't care less about my job. The only thing I care about was to wish for my day job to be over soon, so I could hide away from the rest of the world. One day I woke up and called in sick and that was the best choice I could make. I never went back to that job and I started seeking for professional help.

It is hard to know what you want if you don't know what you are and what you want to be. During my six months long seek vacation I had a very small side project because for me the issue was not the technical aspect but the stress that you always had to perform. I was working for a mobile gaming company and on top of your job you had to play, find bugs, join stand-ups, communicate on slack... This was all fake for me and stressed me out to the point of no return. In the end it was just faking enthusiasm.

I am not like that. I love what I do, but when I am off I am off and please leave me alone. Some companies push you to always have an opinion and what is the problem with not having one from time to time? What is the problem with just doing something else in your free time? If I want to have a side project I will. If I don't, I will be doing something else.

To cut my rant short what really helped me was to recognise my problem and through professional help I could accept myself for what I am. Don't overdo, take your time to know where you are and where you want to go and get back when you are ready. If it helps reduce the amount of working hours and try to enjoy you free time.

HiIAmIlNano | 6 years ago | on: Show HN: My_FreeBSD – A Script to Configure a FreeBSD Openbox DE

Hi guys.

All over these years I managed to write a set of shell scripts that allow me to bootstrap a minimal but working Openbox environment on my Freebsd boxes. The need for this script stems from the fact that I frequently format my install and start from scratch. With the help of this script I managed to have a fully working "desktop" environment in less than an hour.

I worked on this project for a long time now and I always wondered what other people might think of it, if they could find it useful and basically collect ideas on how to improve it.

I am looking forward to receiving your feedback.

Cheers, HiIamIlNano
