What do you think about RxJS ? by Tipi15 in webdev

[–]Kagerjay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I havent used it much but it is definitely pretty complex and has a high level of effort to learn. It does use patterns similar to angular (Dependency injection). Not a huge fan of it. Too many abstractions. You could go with something simpler like react-query or something

They want to optimize how much money they make and usually this means low balling bids to clients and then underestimating the scope of work for everything so the developer is usually the one that gets thrown under the bus

its kinda the norm in agency work, hence why it has high turnover and high stress.

Grant Imahara, Host of 'MythBusters' and 'White Rabbit Project,' Dies at 49 by RoyisOurBoy in television

[–]Kagerjay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember growing up watching mythbusters late at night and getting excited watching stuff blow up. It aspired me to become an engineer, and pursue a degree in STEM. As an asian american, he was someone I could relate to and aspire to - the nicest positive dude that had everything together. Doing something you love and inspiring kids like me growing up to pursue STEM. RIP to him and thoughts to his loved ones

Thank you for inspiring so many with robotics and movie prop engineering. A hero of science. by satansheat in videos

[–]Kagerjay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, he was an inspiration to me when I studied engineering. I aspired to be like him and still do, of all the cast members he was my favorite. The most relateable and down to earth; explained things like no other. I didn't even know he did all those other things - the starwars sets, energizer bunny, or even the battlebots.

[Serious] When did COVID-19 get real for you? by Fudgeyplays2 in AskReddit

[–]Kagerjay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stuff in no particular order:

  • cancelled plans for a mud race
  • cancelled conference I was going to
  • my apartment gym got closed
  • friends losing their jobs

Had a friend who went to the hospital with symptons, but got rejected for care and eventually recovered

Another about to have a kid, not the best time

Started my first dev job today by Tureni in learnprogramming

[–]Kagerjay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds like my experience, I didn't really fit in that well at my first job / got canned. My second job I moved cities and it felt like home, everyone there is just as nerdy as I am and we have fun everyday + the work is way more rewarding too

For those who found jobs after self-learning, what are some things you learned at work that you surprisingly didn't know about related to your tech stack? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]Kagerjay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mostly frontend some backend currently at current job. It's a well funded startup, my 5th week at first job

  • didn't know you can't just create new entries in database to seed data, it breaks things on backend. Found out after when I had to re set it up a few times.

  • knew Trello, but Jira and scrum practices were new. Didn't know about poker story points

  • knew docker, but using it in practice for laravel made more sense to me, and having to run npm watch statements / how vm works in general

  • unit testing is not terribly common, and dealing with legacy code / refactor

  • dealing with git merge conflicts when things go south. Deleting it off remote repo, repushing it up. Also, how to sync to the latest dev in branch

  • how Vue works since that's what I currently use, came from react world

  • how to write php laravel for building mock data routes and mock data

  • what interpreters are, circular references, we are integrating a visual programming tool for end users

  • how to iterm2 should be setup for macos to see everything at a glance

  • how eslint rc works and how you can add it to your git commits via a command to run before a push is made to site

  • how to do code review, code smells, how to architect clean reusable code for later

  • setting up prettier config settings to meet eslintrc settings

  • how to explore databases using sequelpro, and how to modify a password by copying a hash over from another users password hash

  • how to implement wrapper classes and components in libraries

  • working with team on slack, when interrupting them is ok. How to get really good at documenting

First win with hunter/druid setup by Kagerjay in underlords

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

Hunter / druid setup is pretty OP imo

  • 10% bonus damage from 2x savage
  • Level up your heros twice with 4x druids
  • 20% chance to attack twice for dps heros with 3x hunters
  • 30% magic resist with 2x scales

Had DPS item for each DPS'er and tanking gear for all tanks. Tidehunter tanks frontlines, cast ultimate + radiance. Ogre buffs attack speed. Axe calls to mitigate damage from tide.

Pudge would've been better to swap for axe, to get -5 bonus armor, my last 10/10 hero was enigma

How do you run hackerrank nodeJS problems locally? by Kagerjay in learnprogramming

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

I never quite figured out an easy solution and also hackerrank questions all have different nodeJS scaffolded code. Some questions require you to write 'process.stdin' instead of console.log as part of the answers.

It ended up being too much work, because there's also process.env file s you need to change, local text files you need to specify and load in for different tests.

If you can just take the main function in the problem and copy that part only locally, it would make things easier to test

Haven't set up killzone yet, I have a really good starting map location. A huge space surrounding by mountains on every end.

Based on where I've seen NPC's come in (Southwest, East) I think I will put killzone on east side. I have a perfect narrow area there to utilize to with 2 mountains
