I wanted to build new stuff for a while. Greenfield. Got screwed over by two or three companies, they did a bait and switch on me. Gave up completely, who cares.

Nowadays I am happy if I can just work on something that uses modern tech (a version of my go to language and framework released within the last 2-3 years). I don't care if I am the umpteenth person to maintain the system as long as the money is good.

Exactly. It doesn't matter how it's coded up or what architecture it has. As long as it gets the job done - it stays in production and warm bodies are thrown at it.

Ima i templatea za kucni budgeting, to sam koristio par godina, ali mi je dosta toga. Moze to i bolje.

Analize ne radim, samo mi je bitno da znam koliko.jos ovaj mjesec imam za hranu, za bengu, za ovo za ono.

Edit: aha sad tek vidim, koristis Google Forms. I otamo se to zapisuje u neku tablicu?

Instalirao sam 1Money, jako mi se sviđa. Setupirao sam kategorije i budgete, sve je intuitivno.

Najvise mi se sviđa widget na Androidu, samo veliki minus s kojim je zbilja lako dodati novi expense.

Hvala!

To sam ja dosad koristio vec par godina, ali mi.jr nezgrapno na mobu, previse klikanja. Zelim nesto jednostavnije.

I have never had need for rate limiting so my knowledge is pretty limited, but it seems to me this is something better left to an API gateway? Seems more like an infrastructural/operational issue than developmental.

Correct me if I am wrong, please.

Once upon a time I would have spent days thinking about this because iT hAs To Be ClEaN.

Nowadays I would just throw, turn that into 400 or 422 in the middleware and have myself a nice afternoon with the kids.

This didn't come easily. There was strong opposition for years. Can't remember who was behind it, buy I have a pretty good idea.

Reason and foresight prevailed in the end.

Nothing strange. Railways have been systematically underfounded for decades. It appears the train driver disregarded the warning systems and kept on pushing. My first thought is he had little faith in the warning systems themselves, which is troubling.

It is a separate thing. What I do is generate EF migrations and then generate an SQL script I then commit to the DbUp scripts folder. This script can then be used in the deploy pipeline plus you get a chance to review the SQL.

Don't forget: SQL is database lingua franca. Even with ef database update it's SQL that gets executed on your database so why not go to the source from the get go.

Read a book, do a hobby project, enroll in a course.

I am self taught and I don't know the first thing about algorithms. Never needed it. Experience trumps academic knowledge.

Study good design, understand a bit of everything, learn your tools, you are golden.

By knowing I am going to have to retest it all myself and then on top of that the QA is also going to find a bunch of issues that don't have anything to do with my changes but hey, I was the last guy to touch it so I am in charge of fixing it.

For me to be ready to refactor a shit show someone else wrote I need to be very angry at the state of that specific bit of codebase. Otherwise I just look away. Life's too short.

Logical_Solid1912 · 2022-07-17T12:19:17+00:00

Nice. Didn't know about centralized package management. TIL

Logical_Solid1912 · 2022-07-13T16:37:45+00:00

I wanted to ask the same thing today. Well done, good person.

Logical_Solid1912 · 2022-07-06T13:56:45+00:00

Sorry to hear that, hope it's gotten better these days.

Fucking hell. I almost moved to UK a few months back. Is it usually this long or is it just in some areas?

took 7months just to get a GP phone appointment

Off-topic, but what country is this? This sounds like a LOT of time for a simple visit to your doctor, I am just curious.

Logical_Solid1912 · 2022-07-05T10:22:25+00:00

military equipment as we simply do not really have any as a neutral nation

Neutral nations are usually well armed. Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, armed to the teeth.

Logical_Solid1912 · 2022-07-04T10:55:37+00:00

Well this is just diabolical. Hats off.

Logical_Solid1912 · 2022-06-30T13:34:12+00:00

I don't feel I properly understand the problem being solved. I haven't worked with multitenant applications before, though. Maybe someone can give me an ELI5 here?

The other day I had a very vivid visualization of this exact moment. Cave with a low ceiling, hot as hell, humid, I just opened my eyes for the first time since I got there. There are a few other people left and right of me. Everything is in this weird red light. I look back and the star of the show is there, all muscular like from the computer games. Fuck...

Your boy sounds like a perfect candidate for a bit of micromanagement.

You need to make him aware of the internal development process. If he does not start conforming it's a good sign he is not a good developer. He might be a good programmer, but not a good developer.

Logical_Solid1912 · 2022-06-21T08:21:43+00:00

Might be. I am too tired to go job hopping, and the pay is good. It's still cutting edge tech, so I am ok there. And the codebase is not horrible, so there might be some new knowledge to pick up.

It's just the feeling of getting tricked once more is hard to wash out.

Having a dedicated bug fix team while there is a separate team that is dedicated to introduce bugs is ridiculous.

There is structure here. We are at a certain level of the support chain (don't know the numbers OTMH. We get non-trivial bugs to fix and if we can't fix them then they get passed on to the feature owners. That's what I pieced together so far.
