I personally don't like the Monaco GP due to how big the cars have become making it (nearly) impossible to pass. Still you are correct it definitely is a classic race.
Monaco, Spa, Suzuka, and Monza are some of the best and most iconic tracks in the world.

Believe it or not, a modern Formula 1 car has basically the same footprint as a Chevrolet Tahoe
A 2022 Formula 1 car was 5.5 meters, and 2.0 meters in width. Or 11.00 m². By comparison, a 2023 Chevrolet Tahoe is 5.35m in length, and 2.06m in width. Or 11.02 m².
Sure, they only weigh 800kg (1760lbs), but we're basically racing full-size body-on-frame SUVs at this point. I guess we can be glad they're not yet the size of a Suburban, but yikes.
Honestly I don't have any issues with this. Most of my team is in Europe and I'm in America so even before COVID and WFH became the norm, I was still talking to people via Slack, Teams, etc.
I think the best advice I can give is to reach out to people and have normal conversations when you don't need anything. If you only talk to people when you need something from them, they are going to be less likely to talk about things that they have going on outside of work. Talk about anything that they are interested in. Plus the beauty of messaging apps is that people can respond when they have time and if they are busy they can ignore the messages.
Also if you get some downtime in meetings or join early, ask how things are going, what the weather is like, or if they have any weekend plans. There usually is a bit of time before or after meetings where you can still socialize.
Hypothetically, do you think it would be nice if you found out common things you shared with you co-workers right from the start? For example not going 5+ months not knowing that they support the same soccer team that you do. That is 5 months worth of convo that could have happened from the start.
It seems that you are pretty social and take extra steps to build the connections. So, wondering if it would be easier for you to not have to do the leg work and be able to get into the main things you and your co-worker can talk about for hours.
Exactly. I actually call up people when there is downtime and shoot the breeze. We talk about ideas, office politics, anything under the sun. So even though we are all WFHing I was able to bond with my new team this way.
This is a really neat idea! I wonder how close you could get the prose to actually explaining the codes purpose as opposed to just saying "this is a for loop"?
The purpose (intent) wouldn’t be explained, but it could be useful for tools which have oddball syntax and are only used sometimes (infrequent enough for you to forget).
I do the same with my .vim folder. You can place your .vimrc file in there as .vim/vimrc and now everything is backed up in git. I've been working this way for a few years now and can get setup on a new machine in a matter of minutes.
I think Boston Dynamics is the closest to making robots that could actually be useful in real life situations. I would love to develop code for one of these.
There are a number of robotics companies (Savioke, Fetch Robotics, Bear Robotics, MiR, to name a few) that are producing robots that are currently doing work in the real world. I will fully grant that those all require in-advance mapping and fairly level floors, but to me that can fit "real life situations".
Note: I have worked at one of those, and got an offer at another.
I think this is a very valid point. There are times when Python is not the absolute best choice for a given problem, but in most cases it can allow you to achieve the desired goal in a way that is easy for newcomers to the particular codebase to grok very quickly.
There are times when it may be better to use another language and there is nothing wrong with that. I default to Python and if I think there will be specific issues with it, then I can look at a more specialized language.
It does work in Python 2 with the following patch:
