A shame our rectangle couldn’t be there because he would have stopped that goal!

Sorry if I broke any of this subreddit rules during this post!

My wife and I are traveling to Belgium during the week of August 9th-August 16th. Apart of my goal is whenever I can while I travel I watch a football match live. I keep checking to see when the schedule comes out to make sure I book which dates I’m in which city as my preference would be to see RSC Anderlecht.

When does the schedule normally come out? And does would I be in Belgium during the start of the season or would I be going too early?

Any info would help, also would be getting a ticket even be possible if it is a potential first week match?

I got promoted/job hopped to get to a Team Lead position which allowed me to have more input and decision making on System Architecture/Design, and Database Schematic decisions. This is where I wanted my career to go to. I was thrilled! However, I became a Team Lead through job hoping which meant I went from working in a new environment; my old environment did not embrace AI due to sensitivity of data, my new environment was full on vibe code "ask Claude". I found myself drifting back into the coding side because I was the only person who has ever coded without AI before, which meant I was doing all the code reviews and bug fixes.

Wellllllll ... long story short I was apart of a restructure AI layoff (prediction: mostly due to my desire to introduce guardrails which went against my bosses Claude's advice). While I am unemployed I find myself desiring to go back to coding by hand even though I spent the last 2ish years trying to get away from the coding side of the role.

So, I'm asking to anyone who got to a position where coding stopped being a decent chunk of your technical work. Do you ever miss Coding? and if so, would you rather do it by hand or use AI assisted options?

*I do realize that I probably do not want to use AI options because they are all switching to token based cost which I do not want to eat myself*
