At Devoxx and JFall, we talked with Georgios Diamantopoulos, Lutske de Leeuw, Tom Cools, Jessica Siewert, and Rijo Sam about staying physically and mentally healthy as software developers.
There are many topics to handle, like the impact of AI on how valuable we feel, how COVID-19 impacted careers, how we work in and with remote teams, how to get to know new colleagues and much more. Yes, there is even a sidestep where we compared the Java and .NET communities.
