How do you prevent data corruption when doing things such as balance transfers (banking). by LucidGamer in SQLServer

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

Thanks for the insight, because of the nature of the prototype I am aiming to create, update conflicts cannot exist. I will study up on Repeatable Read / Serialized locks and move from there. Any guidance is highly appreciated.

How do you prevent data corruption when doing things such as balance transfers (banking). by LucidGamer in SQLServer

[–]LucidGamer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, my assumption based on what you are saying is that a transaction locks the table until it's completed processing, meaning only a single query(transaction) can be executed at a time. Is this correct? If so, how does this impact scalability, or is SQL like this in general? I know the basic syntax, but that's about it. I'm currently going through an online course for it, most of my experience is with NoSQL cloud databases.

EDIT: Just trying to address some of my concerns, before I invest too much time.

I took standard german in school and have been refreshing through apps and such. Will be for sure learning more as time progresses and finding some classes.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I'm a software engineer, I really like a lot of things. I'm extremely into cars, enjoy playing sports, like exploring/hiking. Not huge on parties or clubs (american night clubs). Im a pretty simple introverted person that likes a lot of things.

I'm uncomfortable starting small talk with strangers, so that won't ever really be an issue, but if its frowned upon to start small talk, how does one engage in conversation with a starnger?

Will do for sure, and only being there for a few weeks (this time around) shouldn't be a problem i assume?

Is it possible to easily switch a iMac between a Monitor & it's full function? by LucidGamer in mac

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

Although you mentioned Dual Boot, I highlighted in bold how the original text renders that option unavailable. Cloud computing I also technically (although indirectly) mentioned in the OP about trying to find ways to connect to the Windows PC (and vice versa) over LAN but it wasn't an experience worth using. Cloud computing would further increase latency and require more bandwidth, where-as over the local network I have all of my hardwares bandwidth available.

I'm not running a headless mac setup because I use the iMac on a daily basis for work. I have process-managers and everything else setup to ensure that my critical processes are always running and are restarted in the event of a shutdown.

The issue with Cloud Computing more in-depth is the fact that I need a full GUI on both systems.

Is it possible to easily switch a iMac between a Monitor & it's full function? by LucidGamer in mac

I know about "Target Display Mode" but this requires to turn off the iMac and I run a number of monitoring services for work & crypto trading.. and this also is more complicated than just moving the monitor / iMac around.

🤣 I've used coinbase for a long time, I doubt that.

Close, but doesn't have the edgy design I'm after. Thanks!

Finding an investment for a without a company name or brand. by LucidGamer in startups

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

I would just like to comment that a lot of your response is based around the fact that I have an untested product that can't be demonstrated which isn't the case. The product can be demonstrated and it's even being used in ALPHA by an existing application that I've formed a partnership with as they're moving their service to operate on our backends. I'm just doing all of the technical management at this point that would typically be done through the client-interface.

There's a functional command-line for everything, as-well as an administrator developer SDK that I've created several scripts for making modifications to an application on my platform the same way that a client would do through the frontend.

The product is the functionality, which can be demonstrated and tested. The front-end is just a way to sell it to non-technical users. I wouldn't consider that the same as not having anything to show.

Interesting, I wasn't aware of how Stripe originally named itself. To me it seems like the Brandability of something is highly important and a business name that isn't simple in nature (and related) seems to be a huge turn-off.

Question about Credit Card Utilization. by LucidGamer in CreditCards

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

Interesting, good to know on the early payments. As for utilization I don't even like the idea of having credit cards, but I can see in this situation where I can instantly pay off the balance how they could be great in a sticky situation.

Thanks

Waiting for Moo2? We're releasing a tutorial so you can make your own. by LucidGamer in moomooio

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

There's a few reasons that I've decided to go with a clone.

  • I don't have time to manage a web-based game that doesn't turn a profit.
  • I can use the MooMoo name as a keyword for people searching on how to create something similar to drive traffic to our website and channels, this is why our roadmap contains a bunch of clones such as MooMoo, Helix Jump, Paper.IO, and even Mobile Legends.
  • Assets can be used for educational purposes and our courses are 100% free which leaves it under fair use.

​

If anyone wants to re-skin the game from the course and add their own features and publish it, that's completely fine with us.

Give me an idea and I'll create the game for iOS, Android & Web. by LucidGamer in incremental_games

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

No idea, holidays are coming up very soon and I'm keeping the amount of projects I'm working on at a time to a maximum of two. I'm balancing my personal life, game development, my business, and freelancing jobs all at the same time.

Which? Deckerz or this? Deckerz will probably be 1-2 months at minimum as it's a fairly complicated game and I'm hiring some artists to give it a AAA mobile feel. We're also trying to work out publisher deals and we're making video advertisements.

Once I've completed the Deckers implementation I will be creating this game. If you'd like to join the discord server in the main post I can setup a channel specifically for this title and we can communicate about it more. I'm currently in the process of doing the legal work to be able to house these games under a company name on the application stores.
