  • these are from a place in bellevue wa that specializes in them.

    and feiw have been all over europe & asia but japan is hands down my favorite place to visit ever.

    tokyo is a monster of a great city … foreign as you can get but amazingly easy to navigate.

    very nice people, terrific food city with a really old beautiful culture.

    all i can offer for advice is to not over think it. find a flight and hotel in your budget and just do it. guarantee you won’t be disappointed ❤️







  • my biggest tip is that if you’re on ios get wefef. great app that makes the lemmy experience beautiful and seamless.

    when you read a comment from c/all from a community you want to join you can click on the community c/link to see all the posts from that community.

    then use the three dots in the app at the top right to subscribe. soooo much easier than trying to search for a community from the web ux.

    and i guess the other tip is to just manage your expectations - reddit wasn’t built in a day and it’ll take a while for all of our niche communities to create new homes here 🥰







  • not at all. i fell into computing in my mid 20s. somehow i managed to learn enough to get myself hired at one of the largest technology companies in the world where i’ve now been over 20 years.

    has it been easy? definitely not. without that classic computer science degree my peers have i’ve had to be scrappier and move faster to be on top of emerging tech where the playing field is a little more equal. i can this “surfing” the tech.

    since i started i’ve participated in the birth of the internet, mobile, public cloud, big data, startups and now ai.

    if you love it you can make it happen - just be realistic and stay scrappy ❤️
