My son asked me what a Software Engineer does. He was very curious about my job content. I simply said that writing code + debugging = solving problems.

It happened to be Friday afternoon, and my baby was taking piano lessons at Papworth. I usually cut videos in the car to make use of this fragmented time. I am working in the car with my laptop in my arms. I have been working on a big change since the beginning of the year. I have been busy for more than two months, and finally it is almost done. Both colleagues passed the code review (Code Review) and only need some minor changes. So I I was still working hard in the car, submitted the code (Push commits) according to the suggestions received, and finally got approved, just waited for the Azure DevOps pipeline to compile the code and then run unit tests + integration tests (and seven or eight checks : Code coverage Coverage, static code detection Static Code Analyzer, etc.), it takes about 40 minutes to complete once.

Just spent the last few minutes praying for the test to pass. Fortunately, it passed, and because the Auto Merge Policy was set, I received an email notification immediately after the code was merged, and then excitedly told my son that this is one of my work contents, and then closed the notebook.
