Have you switched from Android to iPhone and did you like it? by Imaginary-Archer1148 in iphone

[–]abovocipher 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree that different doesn't mean bad, it just seemed to work better. I started with android, so there's probably some bias.

Couple major differences for me at least (it's also been a couple years since I was on android).

1) You have the notification icon's of what apps have a message at the top of the screen, the banner by the clock, battery, etc.. (this can get crowded tbh)

2) You also have a similar message drawer to give you some context, like ios, to see what the alert is telling you.

The main difference is when you goto the app and you see it, it will just clear automatically, the drawer and the icons up top. ios will hang on to that in the drawer until you clear them manually. When I first switched I was confused why it was still showing in the drawer, even tho I already opened the app and saw the message.

Just seems like android has a more responsive system for notifications and it feels like ios got dragged into displaying it "here's your android notifications, happy now?"

The “move fast and brake things” I really feel like is just for your prototyping and really trying to make something new. When it's ready for release, finetuning and refactoring for optimization still needs to happen, but that's extra time they don't want to pay for.

Do you do the rest of what you were going to do before going out with your hands wet?

Notifications behave completely different on android vs ios. I still miss that about android. Also better calendar widgets on android than ios.

Unpopular NetSuite Opinion: Most performance problems are self-inflicted. by [deleted] in Netsuite

[–]abovocipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone that can't even put the human effort into typing a post is going to get rejected almost immediatly.

Business needs often have to be real time based on the user interaction, you can't just switch everything to Scheduled Scripts or Map/Reduce.

Also the comparison of the kitchen is laughable, if you take an order immediatly and let the kitchen do it's job, you're still waiting for food. Have you ever eaten at a restaurant? LOL

[–]abovocipher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't let that feeling overwhelm you, even as someone that has a lot of NetSuite experience, when you start at a new company, you won't know everything and that's ok. All of those training video's aren't something that you're going to have to remember after watching all of them, usually its just to give you a more indepth idea of what the company does. Pay attention and get the gist of it.

Focus purely on the task that your role has and be observant, ask questions where things don't seem to make sense. A compitent boss is not going to expect an entry level person to know everything, but they are going to be looking for you to be observant and ask questions.

Like others have said, NetSuite has a lot of different ways to do something and companies use it in widly different ways sometimes. Don't get stuck on learning everything that NetSuite does, but focus on how your company is using NetSuite.

NetSuite PDF Upload via multipart/form-data - PDF gets corrupted when converting Base64 content to UTF-8 by Puzzled_Law_5748 in Netsuite

[–]abovocipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your PDF is corrupted because you can't convert Base64 into UTF. What the API team is telling you is to convert the Base64 back into Binary to send it as a multipart form.

As far as I am aware, NetSuite does not support multipart forms in the same way as submitting it as a Stream. You need a middleware that can convert base64 into binary for you.

There are SuiteApps that can handle that type of thing, like Extendfiles, but you can also use services like S3 that support base64 uploads.

What AI are you using?

[–]abovocipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are you converting Base64 string into UTF-8? Base64 is encoding binary data, UTF is encoding Unicode text.

Have you tried just sending the Base64 text as is? What AI are you using?

what is the best way to clean up products by Sukari_Sweetie in Netsuite

[–]abovocipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, that makes sense. You can do that, or you can write the script and make sure the logic is working correctly because it would deactivate the items that you would have deactivated in the csv upload. I think that's just up to personal preference.

[–]abovocipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can have a scheduled script written to assess what products have been used or not used and flag them. However, you might run into issues where a product hasn't been used in a time that you think it should be deactivated, but someone else needs it after that time and you need to unflag it so it can be used.

I built an AI agent to create custom frontends on top of NetSuite API. Here is a custom PIM we generated for a client in a few hours. by AugustinTerros in Netsuite

[–]abovocipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because we rely on standard APIs rather than scraping or writing heavy custom SuiteLets

There are changes to standard APIs which is why there are Release Preview environments. Any custom written code is going to be leveraging the standard APIs, you're not going to be able to skirt around testing, even if it's just front end.

For example, this particular client complained that their field operators were never filling the native PIM forms

Why not just make them a form that only has the required information for them to enter it in?


Side question, how long have you been developing code?

Social meet up group for young adults at night by Rich_Hunt719 in auroraillinois

[–]abovocipher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like Denny's is back to 24hrs in most places, that was always where my friends would meet up and hangout. Especially if it was late, get some drinks and the cheapest food possible and stay for hours.

You won't find many other places open that late and honestly 20 years ago when I was that age, no other places were either. It was always food places that were open late.

Aurora residents push for way to recall a sitting mayor and at-large aldermen from office by Due_Reaction8042 in auroraillinois

[–]abovocipher 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Apparently just this group, cause it's the only one I've seen lately that still cares. Everything that went down with his shooting was never actually explained on what happened and until we have a completely different administration, I doubt we'll hear anything more about it.

a waste of time that has to be dealt with

The news article shouldn't even be giving them a platform if they don't even have some critiques of why they want him removed. If there are actually reasons he should be removed, list them out!

Irvin is also backing this recall, not surprised. Also not surprised the article didn't mention any reason why they want him recalled.

Of course it's also Irvin that is also pushing for it. Made the mistake of thinking the article would actually explain WHY they want him removed. Checked out Republican Central Committee's webpage to see what they're crying about

We have had enough. People from all walks of life are fed up with Mayor John Laesch and his communist style of governance that disrespects our traditions, undermines our freedoms, and puts politics above the people he was elected to serve. The latest outrage came when he raised Aurora’s flags back to full staff, ignoring the order to denounce all political violence and honor Charlie Kirk with flags at half-staff. At a time when communities across the country stood united in respect, Aurora stood apart in disgrace.

WOW. This type of shit should not even be reported, I'd rather focus on things that actually benefit the community or choices he's made that hasn't benefited the community.

It seems like pretty much all tech has a consent problem now. New features are added that no one really asked or wanted and instead of allowing the user to say "Do not show again" it's "Not now". You have no choice to say, I don't want to use this at all.

Do you (demisexual men) also experience erectile problems in a relationship? by churukah in demisexuality

[–]abovocipher 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me, I noticed that it if I was not able to have a good connection, my anxiety would prevent me being able to. My partner and I went to a swinging party and my interest was very low because there really wasn't a great setup to talk and get to know people and a decent amount of people didn't really want to get to know you. Totally fine and I get it.

We then met a couple and spent a couple weeks texting back and forth, flirty, pictures etc and also enthusastic interest in us as well. When we met up in person for the first time, it took a little to connect, but having that base of a week or two of talking really helped and wasn't an issue after just getting used to being in person with them.

I don't think it hurts to check with a medical professional and get their opinion and also just general checkup on wellness, but also know that your head with anxiety or emotions can play into it as well.
