You can actually calculate your years to financial independence solely by your savings rate

what do you program?

javascript / python/ pyspark

Get your savings rate to 40 or 50%

I did the calculation and I got never

Is my math correct?

We use scala instead of pyspark

What do you work on with those languages?

it's like internet shit, right?

Spark is a beast

WHO IS NORDIC RUNES

your mom

I used to do full-stack web applications but now moving towards a more big data engineering role

lmao

rekt

WHO IS NORDIC RUNES @Nerthulas

idk

no idea

I'm teaching kids in Africa how to code javascript right now. Its a paradigm shift.

Smoke we have similar skill sets

LIAR

Big data is fun stuff

I will probably get a drastic pay increase in next couple years but still not great economically at the moment

I bet it is beady eyes anglo lies

@Smoke the way you get out of wagecucking is one of two ways (or both), 1, you invest the money each month. 2, you develop something

which you can

because you have the coding skills

@fuguer yes, I'm working with aws at the moment. Building data lake

You get the best pay bumps moving jobs

Hermmmmm

I never move jobs

you could team up with an idea-person

obviously those are rare

yes, that is what i hear. I am getting my professional solutions architect certification for AWS, and going to use that for leverage when my review is due. If I don't get what I want, I will look for another job @fuguer

but there are several things you could make that isn't that hard tbh

The tragedy of tech roles is that, the moment you are committed to fairly new technologies, there will be one that supersedes it fairly soon, or at least creates a new way of doing the previous thing.
And thus, your specialisation has been niched

I really want pringles tbh

MMmmmmmm
