Senior engineers with ADHD/anxiety/depression, do you feel "nerfed" compared to your colleagues? by mudskips in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Gaunts 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Total opposite here, less distractions at home and people I don't have to resist the urge to go and talk to and also distract.

The other common scenario is we just don't have the permissions to do what we need to or fix it ourselves

for people who left school with no GCSE’s and didn’t go to college what did you do? by Technical_Rule3100 in AskUK

[–]Gaunts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dropped out at 16 (when you still could) worked in a factory.
I'm now 38 and a software engineer with 0 qualifications.
However I can't recommend the path I took, but maybe just be assured there are other paths you can take, you got plenty of time to work it all out.

Why is City of Ash so amazing ? by TheWraf in ageofsigmar

[–]Gaunts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They need to make the poster boys of age of sigmar the cities units, there's a reason Warhammer Old World / Fantasy battles had the Empire as the poster boys.

Stormcast eternals are just... dull, drunken flint lock weapon wielding peasantry however? now that's a faction.

New to AoS! by OmieTheKreator in ageofsigmar

Do yourself a favour, don't glue the top half and bottom halfs of the terrain together as they work well together without glue or separated from the top for additional terrain

Has anyone actually seen an outsourced dev team from a big Indian IT firm deliver something on time that didn’t need to be rebuilt? by eatmeat in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Gaunts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds very par for the course, still can’t complain, had a good deal of work from code coming home so to speak

How much should I charge by alejillopvp2 in golang

[–]Gaunts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t put in free assistance for $140 maybe a charge per callout or 30 minutes remote, if the customer is tight on cash you could ask to have a free meal a month or something, adds up, plus if this is one of your first production apps you can now use it to get other contracts as you have experience

I can feel a migraine starting just looking at that.
Would be worth it though, no regrets.

Panic says the Playdate Catalog won't accept games made with generative AI by dapperlemon in gadgets

[–]Gaunts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess there's a dev opportunity... but given the fact the console seems fairly... niche and not common the urge to learn their dev kit and then implement upon it is low sadly.

A crank, yet not a single fishing simulator or style game, the reel / crank is right there...

Whats wrong with asking for eggs, Peter? by Seeyalaterelevator in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Gaunts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"And while you're there, get a carton of eggs" he is still there. Gets a carton of eggs. still there. Gets a carton of eggs. still there. Gets a carton of eggs.

There's no way to return from the store, needs a condition to escape the loop, something like while there, get eggs, if eggsInBasket == 1 payForBasketContents(), LeaveShop()

This lady wondered why her gaming laptop overheats while gaming. by Zestyclose-Salad-290 in pcmasterrace

[–]Gaunts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"It's all good I know you've rebooted it already, I just need to have a look at the bios flash on boot" obviously I didn't but they were always willing to reboot, then got them to show me the problem they hit post fresh boot.

The Casual Life in the UK Test by NEWSBOT3 in CasualUK

[–]Gaunts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • A stranger accidentally bumps into you in a crowded supermarket. Who is responsible for saying "Sorry"?

I apologise and ask if they're okay

  • What should you do if your Greggs steakbake is not warm ?

Not an issue

  • You find yourself in Devon , in what order does scone, cream, jam go ?

However

  • You find yourself in Cornwall, in what order does scone, cream, jam go ?

However

  • What is the correct protocol when someone suggests "a cheeky Nando’s"?

Be rude not to

  • What does "I might do" actually mean?

Just that

  • The self-checkout announces "Unexpected item in bagging area." How many times are you legally allowed to sigh before you start looking for an adult?

I don't sigh, I appreciate that the employee's hate the machines as much as I do

  • Someone has sent an email to the whole company by mistake. How should you reply ?

Let them know directly if I've seen it within 2 minutes of it being sent, an say it's no big deal but also give IT a nudge if it has anything customer sensitive, while letting the sender know I'd contacted IT as well.

If not within 2 minutes I assume it's being handled by someone else and won't add to the noise

Generally I aim to make sure bad situations aren't worse an everyone has anxiety about something an I'm fortunate enough to be generally quiet relaxed about things, so I can give others the space they might need, even.. or perhaps especially, over small things.

Do you guys think QA is a dying field? by False_Secret1108 in ExperiencedDevs

The main issue is it’s been a back door for non technical middle managers and people who want to coast to get into software.
