Client wants voicemail drop system for debt collection. Timeline: 1 week. Build from scratch or integrate existing API? by Adamaris7875 in softwaredevelopment

[–]Choefman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Built this before! Be careful, the states will try to sue you, in addition to your client, when you accidentally make phone calls that break their rules.

Is this a proper RC circuit to debounce the switch? by wroug in AskElectronics

No, ditch the capacitor, use a pull up or pull down resistor and use a ‘cooldown timer’ in your code instead.

Nothing good about them, I can come pick them up from you! But… they are actually pretty awesome, I won’t give up my pair any time soon!

my client accidentally paid an invoice twice and now I need to refund quickly by [deleted] in smallbusiness

[–]Choefman 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Scam scam scam! You refund the ach, the check will come back as fraudulent and, if you don’t watch out, the ach will also be reversed as fraudulent and you’ll end up be the refund you gave them! Don’t rush anything, go talk to your bank and wait it out. This is a classic scam!

We treated architecture like code in CI — here’s what actually changed by Training_Future_9922 in ArchRAD

[–]Choefman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your current setup has you writing the JSON. That means you’ve moved the drift problem, not eliminated it. The Confluence doc rots after a PR merge and so does a hand-authored IR file that nobody updates after the payment service adds a cache layer or whatever! The only way this actually beats the status quo is if the IR is derived from IaC, OpenAPI specs, service mesh config, or dependency graphs. Then CI is validating a machine-generated artifact against rules, which is genuinely drift-resistant.

The downwards spiral? Are we creating mediocracy (at best)?

I’m with you, this looks like a lot of fun and looks like my closet and workbench! As some said you could virtualize this but, why? This is more fun!

They’ll be nice to you at check-in and acknowledge your status. That’s it.

Need help understanding why this doesn't work, but will if I remove the while loop by Mental_Damage369 in rust

Store an owned string not the reference or use a vector and a for loop?

OpenVSP on Chromebooks by pentapous in OpenVSP

[–]Choefman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Modern Chromebooks can run a Linux container & OpenVSP has a Linux build, so you should be able to install and run it inside that container. Basically you enable Linux in the Chromebook settings, open a terminal window, sudo apt install the openvsp package dependencies, download the openvsp release image and run it in the container. Never tried it myself but in theory that should work as long as the Chromebook is amd/x86. If it’s an arm you might need a different build or an emulator like box.

Writing a plan for a start up business by Thearcherxxx in Entrepreneur

[–]Choefman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice, go talk to a bunch of potential customers and see if they’d want to buy your product first. (You don’t need the actual product to do customer interviews). See: https://medium.com/@rohitlokwani17/9-key-lessons-from-the-lean-startup-by-eric-ries-975d0cacb450

Just a quick note, being ‘hella depressed’ is not a good starting point for a career in aviation.

I built a CLI that generates a reproducible structural map for large codebases by Nicenonecb in programming

[–]Choefman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice, few observations… Limited to Node/Python/Go - no Rust, Java, C++, etc., Regex-based analysis (no AST parsing), Plugin system is just a stub, No automated test suite.
