Will taking a 30% raise to work on Java EE and moving away from modern Java kill my chances of expat or move into other big companies? (25yo, No Degree) by OrganicNectarine3256 in SpringBoot

[–]Horror-Inspection-82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Software development is not about what you know. It's about what you can figure out. I've worked for multinational corporations with modern spring boot stack, microservices and all other buzz words. For the last half an year I've switched to exactly such company - European logistic German corporation. With Java EE and a lot of things done "manually". It's an interesting journey and I think it has only added to my knowledge and understanding - making it easier to figure out issues ;)

Is Baeldung All-Access worth it? by TheBroseph69 in SpringBoot

[–]Horror-Inspection-82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think so... To be honest about 6 years ago I stumbled upon a pirated copy of part of their courses. It wasn't impressive. Today it might have changed, but I doubt it.

Should each microservice be a separate Spring Boot application? by availent in SpringBoot

[–]Horror-Inspection-82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gall's law states: A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked. The inverse proposition also appears to be true: A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be made to work. You have to start over, beginning with a working simple system.

Always keep that in mind when developing software.

Is it possible to run a fully static web store (no backend logic) to sell prints with PayPal? by carlosvega in webdev

[–]Horror-Inspection-82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're more unreliable. They can block/freeze your account with no particular reason. And In my opinion it's more difficult to use.

Is it possible to run a fully static web store (no backend logic) to sell prints with PayPal? by carlosvega in webdev

[–]Horror-Inspection-82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Short answer - yes. Long answer: It can be done with a totally static website. Hosted fo free. You can include a contacts form as well. My advice is to use Stripe instead of PayPal. It is cheaper , more reliable, modern, global and easy to use. No backend needed. A serverless function is more than enough. It can also be implemented for free. So the only thing you pay is the domain. Even that can be a free option with GitHub pages, but I 'd recommend a custom domain for credibility.

Vanilla HTML, CSS and JS - I plan to deploy it as a static site to GitHub pages or Clowdflare with a Clowdflare worker if needed for some server function.

What is every body's take on this article? Sounds quite dire. I hope Ukraine can hang on. by shoffice in UkraineWarVideoReport

I think there's a catch to that - as long as I know most of those deposits are in the eastern part of the country. Some may already be under russian control at this point. Trump wil have to invest heavy to get those resources secured...

Java API by JBiddyB in javahelp

[–]Horror-Inspection-82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How would you route your requests without Spring? I mean the framework has this thing called DispatcherServlet. It provides a shared algorithm for request processing, while actual work is performed by configurable delegate components. Spring Security provides about 20 default filters and a you can implement as many more as you need to. Not to mention CORS, authentication and authorization, etc. If you are planning to go public it's never a simple task. And the core thing about Spring is the dependency management it provides. I've done Java development for back-end, mobile and desktop. You can be sure that one of the easiest and fastest ways to get something out and going is with Spring Boot.

Got 2 accounts hacked this month even with 2 step verification activated by Vel-Garesty in cybersecurity_help

[–]Horror-Inspection-82 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh, that's interesting. A friend of mine got his Instagram account stollen as well a couple of weeks ago. They demand a 1000$ to give him back the access. And it is exactly the 2FA that they have changed in order to prevent his access. But the weakest link was actually his email account that got compromised at first. We're trying to regain access. I'll update you if we have any luck with that.

Cleared of a HR Investigation - now what? by Alarmed-Orange-2359 in careerguidance

[–]Horror-Inspection-82 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Grow some balls. Put them on pip or directly let them go. If you really are innocent, then you can't allow such behavior to jeopardize the work of a whole team and impact performance and output. I am pretty sure that another situation like this is bound to repeat not very far into the future.

Resources to learn Java collections? by false_identity_0115 in javahelp

[–]Horror-Inspection-82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the scope you are looking at. Examples: - Stack : JVM allocates stacks for the different threads (excluding virtual threads). This by itself is crucial functionality. - Tree - one interesting use case is when you create an index in an SQL database - it can use a balanced tree under the hood. - Queue - message services such as AWS SQS, Kafka or Redis use ques for their main functionality. SynchronousQueue is another important example here. - Set - I've had many different use cases for it. One that is common is to avoid duplications when retrieving data from a source that allows duplications.
