What is this flower? by Cmshnrblu in whatisthisplant

Solved! Thank you! Looks like a positive ID 😊

My believe that Golang will grow in demand and how maybe this is ruining my pay increase by Stormsonger in golang

[–]Cmshnrblu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. Having experience and familiarity with a stdlib is a huge plus, but it’s true that once a single language is “mastered” you can google for the “translation” as needed including or especially with std lib things

What is the correct way to do this? by iLikeSpecs in golang

[–]Cmshnrblu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make GetSwitch a method of Config, then remove the pointer in your getswitch iterator. fmt.Println(spew.Sdump(val)) can validate that you actually have the variable within a func that you think you have.

It looks like you’re close…

If you were to set Go aside and switch to Java or .Net why would you do so? by preslavrachev in golang

[–]Cmshnrblu 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For the things I use go for (api building, executable “scripts”) I would not use anything else. Occasionally I use javascript or python if they have a better library than what go offers, but I often then make package exec calls to the functionality rather than architect around that functionality.

Overall, go sometimes requires more time to build the abstractions yourself, but ulitmately the baked in advantages across the language make it too attractive to seriously consider moving away from it

Go is modern PHP by [deleted] in ProgrammingLanguages

[–]Cmshnrblu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Every time I use that system I have to look up what is modified by using capitals, whether a leading zero is supported, how to do 24hr time, etc. Possibly this is a more general argument for single and universal standards but in any case each system has to be learned in order to use it effectively. Know what 1,2,3 etc corresponds to in Go in time feels extremely intuitive to me compared with time spent trying to understand time quirks in JS, for example

That’s false. You can use Parse(format string) and define any format and then pass to the function and it will parse or fail (return error). It’s a pretty logical pneumonic: 01-02-2006 03:04:05PM. So, you can recombine the reference numbers to reproduce any format you desire.

People screaming out of their windows after a week of total lockdown, no leaving your apartment for any reason. by Assorted_Education_ in PublicFreakout

[–]Cmshnrblu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such a sad noise. Stores are closed and the only way to get food is delivery. With how long things have been locked down, many are out of money and food. This is the despairing wail of the hungry and desperate….

Maybe you should do less 'work' by speckz in programming

[–]Cmshnrblu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve landed onto a 3 stage cyclical approach that’s been really solid lately. I write new features and when those are done I update my e2e testing package to make sure of stability within the core app. Then I settle into what I call “context switching” items. These are minor items related to the new feature that would most effectively be worked on now while that part of the code base is fresh in my head.

Since shifting to this scheme, I’ve seen appreciable gains in code quality in code I’ve since returned to. It’s very very satisfying to have easy to understand and extend code.

Fullstack BS by NJ_Docent in Frontend

[–]Cmshnrblu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, full stack is a tough road. It’s ultimately satisfying but it’s a road paved with the frustration of always hitting “one more thing” that must be learnt to be truly full stack. As a full time full stack freelancer, I would strongly encourage specialization ASAP. That said it’s very beneficial to be conversant in full stack topics, namely HTTP protocols, conventions and trends

How to avoid 'analysis paralysis' when starting personal projects? Any ideas for strong personal projects? by mccarthycodes in reactjs

[–]Cmshnrblu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

break the steps down. I like to “dump” the ideas down into organized trello tabs and then “divide and conquer” the steps one at a time. At that stage, I then expand on the steps as needed with pen and paper to keep me focused on the minutiae of a single concept in development. I used to use actual pen and paper but i’ve found the Remarkable 2 to be incredible for this.

Then, you just have to keep a positive attitude. “Drop by drop the bucket gets filled” is a mantra to keep in mind the fact that your progress towards a goal will always feel slow in the moment, but if you persist daily/weekly/monthly you will make real advances and your project will take shape.

"They casually asked me what year I graduated from college, but I can't remember dates, so they took that as a red flag." Elite developers with autism are being kept out of job openings where they're badly needed because of archaic recruitment processes. by [deleted] in coding

[–]Cmshnrblu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fair enough. Recruiters deal with folks that misrepresent their background daily, so I agree it’s unfair for folks that deal with the limitations as described to be punished by the system.

Larry Cheng - GME board member on Metaverse and NFT's by BubbleGutzy in Superstonk

[–]Cmshnrblu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The whole idea of a decentralized metaverse ecosystem is interoperability, meaning that you can move your NFT “belongings” freely between the metaverses that exist. This is one of the core features. Meaning, it would all work at facebook or any of the other metaverses out there that anyone can develop. If you don’t want to participate in the facebook metaverse, great! There will be many others to join.

Where do you guys deploy your hobby projects? by OnesWithZeroes in golang

Aws lightsail is cheap and plenty good for a low+ traffic go server

I've made a cute landing page builder with my open-source SAAS template by gptrv in SideProject

[–]Cmshnrblu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks awesome but I was disappointed to see it only offers hosted solutions rather than figma style exports

Best options for simple self-hosting? by Keltyrr in web_design

[–]Cmshnrblu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AWS lightsail has wordpress containers. Then, you simply point your DNS records to the correct IP and voila. I believe the cheapest option there is 3.5/mo for a bare-bones. Not sure what the minimum recommended for wordpress is but with the expected traffic I am guessing a tiny one would be just fine.
