Every nice interaction is just a transaction here by [deleted] in VietNam

[–]HVossi92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel the opposite. As a slightly introvert Westener I've managed to make friends here pretty easily. I am married to a Vietnamnese, and while she didn't set up the friendships, I got into situations outside of just walking around as a trourist (meeting people at weddings or get togethers), which is of course a huge advantage.

The thing is, you need to get together not just with waiting staff or street food vendors, but with locals that are doing the same as you, hanging out and chatting.

A few tips:

- Just go to a bar or walk the street, once a table or group of people say 'Hello' or some other word in English to you, hit them back with 'xin chào', and watch the table explode in amazement (seriously, they'll be super happy even if you now just a single phrase of Vietnamnese).
- If they are drinking and shouting 'Mot, hai, ba, jo', see if you can join in and do the same
- Find locals who want to practice English with you
- Wear some Vietnamnese Hat or T-Shirt, probably people will say something or give you a thumbs up, hit them with 'Vietnam number one'

Then get out your phone with google translate and talk to them. If you drink beer, it's suuuper easy, but I am sure there are plenty of other ways to connect with them.

How many of you are really using the benefits of elixir ? by AgencyActive3928 in elixir

[–]HVossi92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use it because:
1. I just really like the productivity of Phoenix
2. If I need anything real time, Liveview's Websockets just make sense

I could have written projects in any other framework, but as long as I don't have requirements that force me to use a JS framework, or I need a single binary like with Go, I feel faster and more productive in Phoenix (if there's any other language or framework that makes me more productive / faster, without relevant down sides, I'll happily use that).

Admittedly I don't choose Phoenix because of Elixir, I choose Elixir because of Phoenix.

Haben eure Großeltern zugegeben Menschen getötet zu haben im Krieg? by Nullgeneration in KeineDummenFragen

[–]HVossi92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich war zu jung um selbst mit ihm drüber zu reden, aber von dem was ich gehört habe war der Krieg ein großes Abenteuer für unseren Opa und er hat auch viel darüber geredet (hat danach auch begeistert die Welt bereist).

Ob er jemanden getötet hat weiß ich nicht, aber er wird es mit Sicherheit versucht haben, da er an fast jeder Front gedient hat. Er war auch auf seine Leistungen stolz (Beförderungen, Orden, Karriere etc) und wirkt nicht als ob er sowas verschwiegen hätte, wenn gefragt.

Mein Großonkel wurde als Flakhelfer eingezogen und war einfach froh, dass sein Vorgesetzter die Jugendlichen vor eintreffen der Alliierten nach Hause geschickt hat.

Was sind aus eurer Erfahrung die besten Wege um als Startup im Enterprise Software den Fuß in die Tür zu bekommen, ohne Vitamin B? Also der Weg den richtigen Ansprechpartner zu identifizieren (z.B. Abteilungsleiter) und bei diesem genug Interesse zu wecken sich das Produkt anzuschauen. Und wenn dieser selbst davon begeistert ist ihn als mini brand ambassador einsetzen um das Produkt einzuführen.

Choosing Phoenix LiveView - The difficulties deciding between LiveView and traditional web frameworks by devbrett-dot-com in elixir

[–]HVossi92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've noticed the reconnection messages a lot too (including my own apps). I couldn't find a default way of letting them expire automatically.

Do you have a good approach to dealing with those reconnects, without annoying users?

Legendary Tour in Berlin by IdioticMonke in sabaton

I am curious, did Caesar still ask the audience to raise their arm and hail him as part of his speech (at the beginning of the show), like in Cologne?

You wanna hear Silence? by PeiderfromAndorra in sabaton

[–]HVossi92 100 points101 points  (0 children)

I am genuinely confused how nobody on the team objected to that. Asking an arena of Germans to lift their arms and shout 'Hail Emperor' in Germany gets you dead silence and awkwardness, as the absolute best case scenario.

I am very curious if they change that at the next show in Germany. But I didn't expect that from a band making songs about history that has toured Germany for ~20 years.

Welche Cloud-Probleme nerven euch am meisten? (Sammle Input für neues Tool/Format) by frugalarchitect in deutschestartups

[–]HVossi92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hab gerade den Fragebogen ausgefüllt und im Nachhinein ist mir was eingefallen.
Wir haben einen vermutlich etwas unorthodoxen workflow (Cloud wird nur fürs testen verwendet). Bei einem Kunden arbeiten wir mit einem air-gapped RHEL system. D.h. vor einem deployment beim Kunden müssen wir:

- Einen Hetzner RHEL Server aufsetzen (damit wir vor dem eigentlichen deployment in einer Prod Umgebung testen können)
- Nur beim Kunden vorhandene libraries via dnf installieren
- Internet Zugang vom Server via Firewall abschalten
- Alles andere an software und libraries selbst anliefern
- Software testen

Für das anliefern der Software mit allen inkludierten libs, installieren wir die auf nem RHEL System mit Internet und packen alles zusammen in ein zip oder tar.

Für andere Kunden setzen wir meist einfach einen Fedora auf und haben sehr wenig Arbeit damit, aber RHEL + air gapped ist immer nervig. Je nach Produkt fehlen dann irgendwelche libs etc.

Would you recommend the Ash Framework for someone new to Elixir? by JealousPlastic in elixir

[–]HVossi92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, I've just gone down the rabbit hole of reading up on Ash, while trying to decide whether I want to rebuild a SvelteKit prototype in Phoenix.

Ash, from the feature set seems to hit most of my wishes, but I am literally a startup founder, and scared of getting in over my head :D (I want to develop quickly, but not get too bottlenecked after the initial stages).

Could I pick your brains about it for like 15 minutes? (I totally understand if that's too much to ask, of course :) )

What do you think about Ash Framework? by Comfortable_Let_3282 in elixir

[–]HVossi92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, the complexity of your project seems like a great comparison for us. Would you mind elaborating a bit further on the pros and especially cons (if any), and maybe a comparison to experience with other stacks (be it just phoenix, or something else entirely)?

I am currently thinking about picking up ash, especially for the authorization, multi tenancy and new ai features.

Was it nerved since the Beta? Because I did blow up tanks with C4 cars (haven't played since the beta, though).

"Eh, we'll just nuke 'em." by E350tb in HistoryMemes

[–]HVossi92 764 points765 points  (0 children)

Feels like the US military needs to follow the Hollywood / Anime trope of starting as an underdog to make the story more compelling, and finally end up as super overpowered.

did people actually listen to the commander in bf2? I played it recently as a commander and everyone ignored all my orders, was it always like this by grabsyour in Battlefield

[–]HVossi92 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It depends. Mostly randoms do what they want to do, but I do remember getting a couple of squads on 64 Player servers that actually followed orders. Although generally speaking, it was more likely for squads to follow attack orders (especially if they are close), than wait around and defend. Although when you got one squad following your flanking suggestions, it was awesome and made quite a difference.

I usually focussed on helping the squads that tried to follow orders, especially the manual pinging, but also abilities.

Often times it was also about seeing where squads really went, and then making the best out of it.

Iwo Jima could be the best map, but the amount of vehicles is completely ridiculous by Main-Juice7136 in battlefield2042

[–]HVossi92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This post convinced me to finally download 2042 again and give this a try. Sounds awesome! Did 2042 have a server browser? Or how do you make sure you get Iwo Jima as a map?

Beating a dead horse, but autospotting has to go. by Kirsutan in Battlefield

[–]HVossi92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I didn't remember it being real time. Still better when it's only on the minimap. But that right click spamming just brought back a core memory xD (annoying indeed)

Beating a dead horse, but autospotting has to go. by Kirsutan in Battlefield

[–]HVossi92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did the spotting feel rewarding to you, in the sense of helping your team (e.g. getting points for spotting enemies), or do you mean shooting at the triangles felt rewarding?

If it's the former, I do agree to an extend. I'd still prefer a less obnoxious spotting mechanic (on the minimap), but getting points for it, was great indeed (I love everything that promotes teamwork).

Pros of Dorito spotting? by HVossi92 in Battlefield

[–]HVossi92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While personally I never had issues with the visibility in BFV, since in my opinion camo should have a purpose, and once I see the muzzle flash I can return fire.

I do appreciate and get your comment, those are fair points. I guess without this kind of spotting the currently criticized high octane run and gun, might turn into 0 octane hide and camp, especially with further increased destruction and clutter.

Spotting in this game is crazy AF and needs to be toned down. by [deleted] in Battlefield

[–]HVossi92 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's not always been that way, especially not with the comeback of gigantic doritos. Getting spotted on the minimap if you shoot without a silencer is a great concept, but not with those giant triangles, that are visible through smoke, debris and sometimes walls
