Maybe more. I had burnouts as well, and I didn’t even know what burnout was until a couple of years ago. 😆 Losing the enthusiasm for coding can be normal: it’s hard to do the same thing, day in day out, and not get sick of it after so many years. https://thdaraujo.github.io/posts/new-job-new-codebase-how-to-get-started/ Fri, 17 Sep 2021 11:34:52 -0700 https://thdaraujo.github.io/posts/new-job-new-codebase-how-to-get-started/ One of my readers asked: How do you get started when you join a new company? How do you add features to a codebase that is massive, scary, and completely new to you? The first day at your new developer job is just like the first day at a new school. 🚸 A sea of stranger’s faces watching your every move. Unfamiliar smells in the hallway. Every chair is uncomfortable and makes weird noises when you sit.
