Job Titles, especially for software developers, is something I usually call BULLSHIT!

I’ve been a software developer for over 15 years and I still don’t know what to call myself.

Beyond trying to agree on a generalized name for developers, software developers, programmers, software engineers, coders, computer programmers, and the like, we’ve got to contend with job titles.

What the heck is the difference between a Senior Software Engineer and a Junior Software Engineer? And how do they compare to Software Developer II and Software Development Engineer in Test? This is some pretty confusing stuff.

And of course, if it confuses me, I strongly believe it confuses you too...

So, how should software developers call themselves? Does it even matter? Watch this video and find out!

Working from home is the dream of most software developers. The dream of working from an underwear, without having to spend a HUGE time from on commute, not having to deal with stupid coworkers, etc.

However... if you work at a company, working from home might be perceived not as good by your boss...

A lot of people ask me "John, how can you be so optimistic and see life through so good lens?"

Well, I must say I wasn't always like that. Back in the days I was a very pessimistic person. I always ended up looking at some life events in a pretty damn bad way.

That's when I realized that, in life, what happens is that there are events that are neutral and we choose to give the interpretation to them, whether it is good or bad.

So... How can you be more optimistic? How do you develop an optimistic view of the world? Watch this video and find out!
