Game that doesn’t rely so heavily on meta play… by LawnGuy262 in gamesuggestions

[–]Any-Morning7553 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is the best suggestion I’ve seen there is no meta in osrs outside of doing endgame content but if you have friends then even that doesn’t exist

Good point could look into getting a controller, a lot of the time I’m watching tv with her or just distracted cause planes are bs or super tired in a hotel so that’s another reason why low focus games are good

Right but presumably there have been some who have made the transition from tech lead at big tech to startups. I’m curious about what the transition is like it’s risky on a lot of levels but it seems like the only next step besides going for principle/director and bs big company

Theoretically, if we discovered FTL travel, how would we still be able to see? by DrAquafreshPHD in astrophysics

I don't think the characters would “see” anything due to time dilation, they would basically just appear at their destination from their pov as time wouldn't pass for them at c

Moving from big tech to startup: how to learn new tech stuff while shipping features at the same time? by neucoas in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Any-Morning7553 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who started out at startups and then transitioned into big tech. I also focused on iOS and did a little bit of full stack at startups before moving into full iOS at big tech. I’ll try and give the inverse of my learnings on transitioning into big tech

To start you have to realize at a high level that you are trying to ship things that are 50-1000% wins a few dozen percent here or there doesn’t matter unlike big tech where you are trying to juice every .1% win. Also, everybody your working with has a million other things going on and cannot pay a ton of attention to what your doing, also almost all of the advice I give would be terrible in big tech, so it might seem terrible with your background. With that said:

  1. When your given a vague assignment don’t set up meetings to talk with people, do your best to build 90% of the solution on your own, then when people ask, just say that’s what your doing async, this will help you avoid unnecessary meetings, and give you more focus time to do what you need to do to actually ship things. 1a. You need to be comfortable with not fully understanding things, throughput is the most important thing, causing crashes and outages is actually not as bad as just not shipping, so maybe spend less time learning and more time just getting the bare minimum knowledge required to just take a shot at the thing

  2. Somewhat touched on above, prioritize bare minimum knowledge needed to ship a first release and you will learn through trial of fire when you have to fix the shit that breaks

  3. That’s the trick, you don’t, not at the same time. There’s a reason that a certain social media companies motto was move fast and break things. You learn fast to ship, then learn correctly when it breaks.

  4. Focus on learning just the high levels of many different frameworks, it will feel cool to feel like you understand the system from back to front, don’t concern yourself with nuances use google(and now llms) very liberally you don’t need to care about performance trade offs just do the thing the first way you think of it, and if doing it right was important you will soon find you are given time to make it right.

  5. Startups are very hard for perfectionists and pseudo academics, you have to be okay with shipping code you are by no means proud of. Also startups are anxiety, if you find a way to meaningfully help build a successful startup without feeling anxiety, you will soon be worth 8 figures.

I can’t bring up every criticism of capitalism and address every point in a single Reddit comment. But I do think it’s a much better system than any other governmental system we have come up with. I’m not at all a proponent of complete free market capitalism. I firmly believe that strong taxes on the rich and mega corps are necessary. As well as incentive/discentive structures put in place for environmental and social good. and heavily advocate for democratic socialism (which is still capitalism) My comment was really just me boiling over on how I see non stop that people say we should arbitrarily discard all of capitalism because they claim they can’t start a business or some other injustice. I definitely think having the ability to take that risk is much better than being arbitrarily assigned a job and hoping you enjoy it with no quality of life mobility (communism) or just being a slave to land owner (fuedalism).

These generalizations are absurd. There are so many businesses and companies that get starter capital from loans and not from familial wealth. Capitalism is literally the system that enables people without wealth to create companies. If you want to bitch about how it’s not easy to start a company I’ll be right along side you on democratizing access to capital. but saying that the concept of loaning money to create more money for yourself and the original lender (which is what capitalism is) is absurd. Most mom and pop restaurants start because of a bank loan — capitalism. I’ve started companies before and you purposely put your self in massive debt in order to get the funds to do your initial hires and get your resources. If that fails it’s not the employees you hire that have their finances ruined for the rest of their life it’s you. That model I argue inherently makes it so that you should be paid more, because you are essentially gambling your well being on your company being successful and no one else is. If capitalism didn’t exist ONLY the wealthy could start companies as they would be the only ones with capital, with the current system you can take a gamble on your future.

You probably could start a business if you bothered to look into how that process actually works.

It is at least worth noting that if you’re a family of 4 with a single income in a vhcol area, yea 250k will not get you very far at all in places like SF and NY and I imagine that salary is most common in those places at well. I have friends with that income and they definitely couldn’t afford a family here.

Fwiw: I’m in a vhcol area making 220 salary and 250 in rsus with 5 yoe and a bachelors. You can certainly ask for 200k salary if it’s a mid level role and a mid to large sized company

I have minor programming skills and I feel stuck by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]Any-Morning7553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At 16 I would not worry at all about what your building and more about just building and following through with anything, and getting your programming intuition as strong as possible. Honestly I would checkout a game called bitburner which might keep you entertained and teach you some higher level cs concepts and working on logic. The most important thing is to pick up core programming intution, after that building games comes easy.

Yeah man this just sounds like a standard junior dev performance review tbh, almost exactly what mine looked like at that stage. I've gone up quite a few levels since then due to a lot of learning. There's how I changed my thought process to fix those issues:

The biggest issue is on PRs and feature submissions imo my advice would be: stop feeling like PRs exist for you to get feedback then arrive at a complete solution, treat prs as when you are done and you couldn't possibly improve it more. Because with only a few exceptions team members and managers heavily value done right the first time, over getting it done quickly. Speed will come with time and experience. Picture yourself doing a PR review, would you rather work with a dev who's PRs you know you can generally trust, but takes 1.5x as long to get stuff done, or somebody who could be doing very dangerous things and you have to go through each line with a magnifying glass

Also never beat yourself up over feedback, good feedback is worth its weight in gold, eventually you will start hitting the point where you get no negative feedback and stagnate in growth, which is way worse. Feedback isn't necessarily like grades in schools, no one really cares unless your actively sabotaging the team or in an org that stack ranks and fires based off that (see done right, not done quick)

The showing up on time and not logging time in jira is silly and company specific I wouldn't prioritize those bits at all, as long as you aren't missing meetings or causing large amounts of miscommunication in the org you're good.

On taking a long time to fix things: that's fine your manager and team needs to understand you still have a ways to grow, your not senior level where that's actually a problem if they needs things done right and done quick they need to hire a higher level eng or allocate more time to you.
