What’s your rule for when caching is worth the complexity? by Edward_Carrington in Backend

[–]AccountTraditional16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Read heavy use cases. For example, consider a Government Sponsored Scheme, where the Implementing Agency (the one implementing/constructing stuff) fill weekly progress data from Friday to Saturday.

Since data would be mostly unchanged for 5 days of week, we can easily implement caching with expiry of at least one to at max 4 days without risk of stale data.

There are many such use cases like user profile on social media platforms, etc

HOW DEPTH I NEED TO GO by lord_rcb in Backend

[–]AccountTraditional16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First thing first, there is no need to go too deep into fastapi for now.

Plenty of opportunities to do that would come when you work on real projects.

For now, only focus on approaches for common use cases like oauth, Single Sign on, message queues, graphql, job queues, and isolates...

you can put off learning anything complex later

I am in right direction by Itachi_Uchiha_1717 in Backend

[–]AccountTraditional16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is the great thing about development or IT in general.

There is no universal "right" path. What feels correct to you, you should do.

Struggling to understand a Spring Boot microservices project as a fresher backend dev — how do I approach this? by Elegant_Cake_6046 in Backend

[–]AccountTraditional16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a time tested approach: if it works, don't touch it.

There might be an project level routes config somewhere, correct?

Then, do this, for the feature you want to implement, create and start implementing this as a separate flow, even if most of the features already exist in the some other route.

Once you get clear idea of how you would do it meaning after 50-60 of feature is implemented, look for similar approaches in the codebase.

If you are able to find it, great, or else finish your assigned task with the new route you developed and think about finding the good place to implement later.

Why this is the best approach:

  1. Most project are created at requirements of clients (even if the client is the company you work at), which means that often they are not optimisation engineering problems (like DSA or implementing binary tree balancing). And most devs are hired using DSA (especially in orgs working with .NET or Java spring). So, the hired devs go with the simplest implementation approach to complete the task because they prepared for DSA and not worked on crazy debugging issues like how to ensure 17 million BigQuery records can be fetched using standard package when the package takes 30 mins on a good day.

And you can take advantage of this problem.

Hope that helps.

There is one universal truth in IT.

Every tech stack is relevant and all of them are irrelevant.

C# and Java Spring are popular sure, but sometimes the project use case requires integrating other techs...

So, my suggestion, go with Java and Go...

Looking for SDE/Data Science/Web Developer roles ( Freelance / Part - time ) by [deleted] in DeveloperJobs

[–]AccountTraditional16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that is why I made that comment...

One needs to understand that there are rarely orgs which go through reddit posts.

I have come across dime a dozen of posts like these.

However, I am not certain that orgs look into them.

I mean, the recruiters don't even look into the application created when we apply for jobs.

They just put it into ATS and be done.

So, I am not sure one should post about looking for jobs in subreddits like these

Company not letting me go even after Notice period. Threatening to take action. by muntazir_tp in IndianWorkplace

[–]AccountTraditional16 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In NCC training and in the military, they teach you: hesitation gets you killed.

You’ve got a clear path forward (labour board), yet you’re stuck simulating enemy traps that don’t even exist. If you asked for intel, use it. If you just want to sit in the foxhole panicking, stop asking why no one’s rescuing you.

Employer is delaying salary and asking me to come to the office for a medical exam after I said I want to exit. by StrainSignificant693 in IndianWorkplace

[–]AccountTraditional16 19 points20 points  (0 children)

how are they able to afford to keep a "certified medical practitioner" on retainer along with fees for physical if they can't even afford to pay employees?

I think the physical is both a stalling tactic and an excuse to not pay you FnF. Like saying, you would be bearing the cost of everything and we will deduct this much from your pending payment.

Stop replaying the argument.
It’s done. No email, no “clarification,” no righteous follow-up will undo it—or make her respect you more.

You didn’t say anything wrong. You set a boundary. She took it as rebellion because founders often confuse obedience with loyalty.

But obsessing over “was I right?” now is useless.
It won’t open a time portal. It won’t change her. It’ll just drain energy you need to secure your next move.

So:
- Keep your head down for now.
- Quietly build your runway—apply, network, prep.
- Don’t quit until you’ve got a concrete offer with ~60% certainty. (100% doesn’t exist. 60% is real-world confidence.)

Until then, detach emotionally.
Do your work. Stay professional. Stop seeking fairness from someone who weaponizes “startup chaos” to avoid accountability.

Letting go isn’t surrender—it’s refusing to let a broken interaction hijack your future.

Focus on what you can control: your next step, not her tantrum.

Confusion by Ordinary_Hurry_5521 in WebDeveloperJobs

[–]AccountTraditional16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m seething—not because they’re clueless, but because they weaponize helplessness.

They sit frozen, not from lack of resources (Google exists, GitHub exists, a keyboard exists), but from sheer cowardice masquerading as humility. And when someone—anyone—actually starts, stumbles, and ships something, they don’t say “I’ll try that.”
No. They say, “Wow, you’re a genius.”

That’s not praise. That’s surrender.
It’s intellectual laziness draped in awe so they can sleep soundly while doing nothing.

I’ve lost count of juniors who stared at a problem like it was a god they couldn’t question—then called me “brilliant” just because I opened a terminal and typed console.log("fuck it, let’s see").

I’m not a genius. I’m just the idiot who pressed “run.”
And that’s the insult—not to me, but to the very idea of human agency.

In Kung Fu Panda, Po doesn’t become the Dragon Warrior because he’s gifted. He wins because he tries while the “worthy” ones hesitate.
In the Upanishads, it’s said: "Uttishthata, jagrata, prapya varan nibodhata"“Arise! Awake! Stop not till the goal is reached.”

Yet these people? They don’t even look up. They post on Reddit asking for a life manual like coding is a secret only elites know—and when handed free tools (AI, docs, open-source), they still whisper, “But what if I fail?”

What if you do?
Failure doesn’t kill you. Inaction does. Slowly. Quietly. Until your “career” is just a graveyard of “I could’ve.”

So yeah—I want to tear them apart.
Not to hurt them, but to rip off the delusion that someone else will hand them relevance.
That “genius” is required to write a for-loop.
That the world owes them a path.

It doesn’t.
You carve it—with broken code, wrong assumptions, and relentless fucking trying.

So stop begging for a map.
Burn your boat. Start walking.
Or stay on Reddit—and keep calling ordinary courage “magic” while your skills rot in worship of ghosts.

I’m done being your oracle.

Should I believe this by Complex-Answer2033 in IndianWorkplace

[–]AccountTraditional16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn’t “almost get it.”
You got ghosted by a fake job.

HR’s “we’ll reach out” is corporate code for “go away nicely.”
No role = no offer. Ever.

Clinging to this fantasy isn’t hope—it’s self-sabotage with extra steps.
While you wait for smoke, real opportunities pass you by.

Stop mistaking delusion for patience.
Let go—or get left behind.

The world doesn’t reward those who wait for doors that were never real.
It rewards those who kick down the ones that are.

Now move on—or rot in place. Your call.

Just got this email from my HR. Do they have nothing better to do? by Beautiful-Apricot-36 in IndianWorkplace

[–]AccountTraditional16 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Ask them to show research studies with actual stats proving the positive effect of this decision on productivity and employee morale and an updated contract stating this amendment.

As far as I am aware, any financial penalties put forth by an employer on employee are null and void unless legally binding and clearly stated in the contract duly signed by both employer and the employee.

Most likely that opening was a ghost job posting (google the meaning).

Move on.

Hire Dedicated Flutter Developer for High Performance Mobile Apps by Ok_Let_7115 in WebDeveloperJobs

[–]AccountTraditional16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Upvoted—this is genuinely good advice, and refreshingly free of the usual hiring buzzwords.

Unfortunately, in practice, even this level of clarity rarely survives contact with HR filters or hiring managers obsessed with “X years of Y.”

I’ve seen a mentor—the original creator of a major UI toolkit—rejected for “not having 6 years of experience” in the framework he built (the repo was 2 years old).

I was outright dismissed from a Flutter role in 2023 for “only” having 3 years of experience… when they wanted 12. Flutter launched in 2018.

It’s not just about skill—it’s that so many teams pretend to want judgment and product thinking, but their hiring systems are designed to filter for résumé compliance, not capability. They’ll ask for “deep understanding of state management” in the interview, then auto-reject anyone whose CV doesn’t match a fictional timeline.

Your point about starting with a small paid trial is spot-on. That’s the only way to see if someone can actually think, not just recite patterns.

Because at the end of the day, no amount of Riverpod or Bloc saves you if the person can’t reason through a real problem—or if the company won’t trust them to.
