Tomatoes. I disliked them for a long time but a few years ago I tried them again. I don't remember how I made that decision - it may have been from forgetting to ask for no tomatoes on a burger but I ended up trying them more and came to like them. I don't like all tomatoes and not in everything, but I do enjoy them in sandwiches, burgers, and a few other things.

I can't speak to managing the DB as I don't have experience with that.

The company I work at is considering moving some/all of the "not business differentiating" work (aka boring or terrible yet still critical work) to teams in India. I agree with roughly colocating teams (by time zone. Working 12 hours apart from half your team isn't practical). I disagree with the Indian teams taking all the bad/boring work.

Progressing languages aren't about computers. They're about humans.
