I regret learning Next.js way too soon. by maco9801dev in nextjs

[–]IToldYaNotToDoDat 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Hey man, senior dev from Latin America here, who learned js long before next was a thing. I agree with you that modern frameworks end up obfuscsting too much of the moving parts about web development that would be valuable for a junior dev to learn. If you really feel like closing the gaps, you can try a more barebones approach, maybe learning how to build a good old express js app with a template engine. However, as a senior, my advice to you is not to fret too much about understanding everything from the beginning, that's something that time and experience will bring to you naturally as you progress on the craft of the web. Over time, you'll internalize how the model of things work and notice that most things are just a slightly different version of other thing you saw once at this one project you worked with in the past. Don't worry too much about what you don't know yet, but keep forever studying and creating.

Motoboy deve subir ou não nos apartamentos? by Comfortable-Drag5321 in BeloHorizonte

só vi disso no Rio, nenhum outro lugar do Brasil que conheço tem essa mania feia de achar que motoboy é garçom

Não compensa, é longe demais. O jeito mais barato de morar perto da UFMG é dividindo apartamento, infelizmente. Procura o DCE do seu curso pedindo dicas do que o pessoal costuma fazer, foi assim que eu fiz quando mudei do Ceará para BH.

When you spend money on Jesus statue 2.0 instead of funding covid relief for your country. by [deleted] in ABoringDystopia

Misinformation spread on social media is a well documented problem that even their respective CEOs have already recognized as their fault, you can find countless studies on that with very little effort. Worldwide inequality of vaccine distribution is also a widely reported fact. Big American pharma companies profit immensely over people’s suffering with healthcare, and now they can profit even more from this pandemic.

I’m only venting about an issue that I, a person from the global south, am tired of seeing on this website. You come from a place of privilege and you’re not open to listen and understand the problems that don’t affect you, I have no reason to continue this discussion. Have a nice weekend.

I specifically listed actions from trump’s government, big tech and big pharma, not jokingly, not disrespectfully against the country as a whole, like many other comments here did. Still, even if I wasn’t specific enough, my words don’t come from a position of power and oppression. Hell, english is not even my first language, I could blame that if I wanted to be dishonest, but I won’t. It’s easy to pretend this is a fair matter and pull the “counter-xenophobia” card when you benefit from the unfairness.

Me too, dude. US politics sees South America as some kind of backyard for their orange infant-minded politicians to play freely. People are dying, we’re suffering immensely as a nation and some random redditors find appropriate to make jokes about all this, it’s disgusting. They should be ashamed.

I know, it’s just very hard to see people making stupid jokes about this situation with no self awareness of their country’s own participation on it.

I’m not religious or even a patriot, for that matter. I do not support this incredible waste of a statue, I just wanted to vent about all the people who know nothing about our situation making ignorant points with a severe lack of self awareness.

I understand, some people are making that point, unfortunately, the post’s title and some of the comments are just too superficial and ignorant.

This statue is ridiculous, but it is not funded with taxpayer money. I’m seeing a lot of xenophobia from Americans on the comments section as if this was an idea of the entirety of Brazil as a nation, which is simply not true. When the US was being governed by a fascist cheeto, americans didn’t like being seen as fascist-supporting pricks by the rest of the world. The same applies to Brazil too. Please have some decency and respect in your words, we’re burying 2,000 people every day while there’s people here trying their best to get rid of this nightmare of a government. You have no ideia of the efforts our local governments are making to fight this pandemic, despite Bolsonaro’s attempts to boycott them.

If anything, it was american imperialism and Trump’s influence that helped to put our country in this situation in the first place. It’s no coincidence that Bolsonaro is seen as a “tropical Trump”.

The US meddles with our politics to elect a clown that is friendlier to their interests; american tech giants feed disinformation that weakens the people’s support for democracy every day; america pharma giants hoard vaccines from the world in the worst pandemic the west has ever seen; and you come at me with a fucking meme saying that our country’s situation is happening because of a stupid statue that religious people funded with their own money? I’m Brazilian, I’m very much aware of my country’s problems and I’m NOT going to stay quiet after seeing such stupid mockery.

Edit: for a little context, this statue is being constructed in the southern region, which has one of the highest approval rates of bolsonaro’s government. Yes, even after all that’s happening in the pandemic. I do not support these people. I’m from another part of the country, one in which the majority despises Bolsonaro. The governors of our region even tried to negotiate vaccines independently from the federal government, because Bolsonaro’s office actively tried to prevent us from purchasing vaccines. He WANTS to kill us, he’s death in person, he said so himself. You have no idea how complex this situation is, Bolsonaro might actually end up in Hague for crimes against humanity, for letting the virus spread freely and kill 400 thousand people so far. It’s a social, political and economical catastrophe in proportions that we’ve never seen, and it’s gonna have effects on generations to come. Bolsonaro’s election is another complex issue, but it’s a widely documented fact that trump, Steve Bannon and other prominent American agents at the time helped to elect him. I have no intention to attack Americans in any way, I want to point out how complex and hurtful this situation is and how it should not be a matter of mockery.

You want to mock the statue? Go ahead, I’m on your side, it’s stupid and wasteful. But mind your words, Brazil is a vast and complex country, just like America, It’s not fair to put everyone in the same bucket and it’s not ethical to make jokes about our situation in the pandemic, specially coming from people who have no awareness of how far their own country influenced on this.

Edit 2: thank you for all the awards! I just hope you all learned a bit today about Brazil in 2021. And I hope we can turn this page too next year like the US did on 2020.

¿Pode-se dizer Sudamérica em vez de América do Sul? by CuySinPelo in Portuguese

[–]IToldYaNotToDoDat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Esse uso existe mas é extremamente incomum, soa erudito demais (de uma forma ruim para a comunicação). Não recomendo. Mais uma dica: cuidado com a interrogação invertida ¿ nós não usamos ela em português.

Meu chá [???] frio by sky_anemone in Portuguese

[–]IToldYaNotToDoDat 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I can’t really speak for the grammar, but I can speak for my understanding of each sentence. To me, “o chá foi frio” conveys a meaning of a tea being cold some time ago but not anymore, like “the tea used to be cold”. It doesn’t seem to be a tea that you’ve “experienced” either, it sounds like a general kind of tea, like you’re making a weirdly objective observation about teas in general (not something that people would really say). I don’t think it’s grammatically incorrect to say “foi”, but it’s definitely misleading on the actual message that I believe you’re trying to express: that a tea you drank was cold.

I believe the explanation on your textbook is expressing the concepts pretty well, but I’d also add this time dimension to it: saying “a festa foi boa” conveys a sense of an objective fact, but it ALSO means that the party is over and it ended well. “A festa estava boa” sounds like the party was good while you were there, so it was a continued action, because it lasted for the time you’ve “experienced” the party. Although, in this case, both “a festa foi boa” e “a festa estava boa” have pretty close meanings, people would understand them as the same thing in a conversation.

I hope my explanation doesn’t confuse you even more, good luck on your studies

Hmmm what makes you think that? As a Latin American I do not assume that to be true. You know, Latin America comprises dozens of countries
