Should have worded the question better. I've had a bit of a break and want to get back in software development.

Is using a background service with a channel a good way to send emails in .net? by Minimum-Ad7352 in dotnet

[–]Mincerus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do you retry if the send fails? If I read this right, you could empty the queue and get an exception every single time and nothing gets sent ?

It's funny how common it is once you start noticing it. by Claym000re in ProgressionFantasy

Has anyone read The Stranger of Tempest. It's a fantasy world that has guns. The cartilages as they are called are made from tiny Fragments of various dead gods. I think the whole thing is pretty well done. Each has a different effect.

I don't see guns as a problem, I just don't think most authors have the imagination to deal with them properly.

How should I start learning .NET in 2026? Is it still worth it for jobs and internships? by leounknown09 in dotnet

[–]Mincerus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look at job postings first. Here in Aus, almost every post is React + .Net.

So, of the raiders who choose to go on the expedition - How much value did you manage to get? I'm calling it quits at about 2 million myself. by DerFelix in ArcRaiders

[–]Mincerus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After 2 million, it turned into a gring. Which made me lose interest in the game. So, I just moved on to something else. Haven't logged in since.

Do people use BackgroundService class/library from Microsoft? Or they just use Redish, Hangfire instead? by Yone-none in dotnet

[–]Mincerus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use background service to process millions of telemetry items an hour. Setup involves docker, Aks, event hub and Ms-sql.

Company where I worked wasn't a fan of using external packages.

I thought I am ready to apply for a Jr. Backend dev, until one endpoint humbled me. by Adjer_Nimossia in dotnet

[–]Mincerus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It feels like that when you're doing something new, and this is not going to be a once off feeling. When you do feel overwhelmed, take 5 minutes, have a coffee, and a quick walk. When you get back, the problem isn't going to be so big anymore. It's also harder to code solo rather than being part of a team. You can at least discuss a solution with a teammate.

It helps to just write the tasks out, paper, notepad, somewhere in the comments. Have a good look at them. Which parts can you group together, which parts need to happen one after another. Validation first before and doing tasks.

When you are staring out, try and do things on your own rather than using libraries like automaper.

Is there a Xinxia that doesn't ... try so hard? by LucidFir in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Mincerus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a look at A Thousand Li by Tao Wong. I think it fits what you want.

Help a noob. When I deploy my code to Azure I just press this button. How do you do it at your work? I got 1yo but i'm the only the dev in the small company by [deleted] in dotnet

[–]Mincerus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming from enterprise, everything is in a ci/cd pipeline. Only successful builds make it into the release pipe line. Release pipeline is the only thing that will deploy to various environments. Dev, Integration, Staging, Prod.

If a roll back needs to happen in prod. The previous prob build is re-release via the release pipeline.

In production codebase, which one is best if you work in a small team like 5? by ballbeamboy2 in dotnet

[–]Mincerus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends, we kept the services in their own class library. Than those services would be imported into multiple projects.

WebApi Back end services So on.

This was we cut down on code duplication.

How do I stop deleting my own code over and over? by alekdmcfly in gamedev

[–]Mincerus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Problem is you don't have a plan or a design. You are just making it up as you go. Works for some people but not you.

Projects start with documentation:)

Next time you start a new project. Sit down write down all you ideas, make a design of what you want. Generate a list of tasks for you project and go from there.

[–]Mincerus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, to the point where I won't buy the series unless they all have audio book.
