It takes more than great code to be a great engineer. Soft Skills Engineering is a weekly advice podcast for software developers about the non-technical stuff that goes into being a great software developer.
So: Mu. Ask a different question. You have dependencies. You will always have them. Choose them thoughtfully. Invent where it matters most to you, and re-use where it does not, and where you can benefit from somebody else's care & testing. Talk your employers into sponsoring the important ones if you can, because that will improve their quality. Probably. There is no such thing as free-as-in-lunch software. FIN

Also, if you're like me, and were raised to scoff at people who needed to hire cleaning services as it is a "rich lazy" person thing, I urge you to absolutely let go of that. The last two years I've been incredibly burnt out both from work and from, idk, probably 39 years of undiagnosed autism. If you can pay for an accommodation like this to help give yourself some space to breathe, do it.

My no-nuance take on the recent discourse: I am not less than the other people in the IndieWeb community for not having a fancy, automated, cool setup on my personal website. Nobody has ever made me feel that way. It doesn't matter if all you have is a simple page with your name and email. If there is one place where you can do whatever you want and how you want is your personal website. I'm lucky to have found a community that supports this.

Contributing to open source is a privilege. It doesn't mean you have cheated to do it or that you don't deserve praise for doing it! It only means that not everyone can do it. You need the skills, time and will to do it in addition to doing whatever you need to have a good life. Not everyone has that time. Not everyone works in the field. We must acknowledge it to meaningfully convey the value of open source in society. #opensource #privilege
