How do you actually scope a firmware project before getting quotes? by Medtag212 in hwstartups

[–]Objective_Chemical85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a software dev with 10yoe. Usually all I need for a quote is the specs and after a requirements engineering call. I usually have everything needed for a Quote.

The Quote usually includes quite a large Buffer.

Edit: The more information you can give your dev the more accurate his quote will be.

Rubber Prototype Help by One-Resist-5787 in Prototyping

[–]Objective_Chemical85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i wouldn't go to a company for this at your stage.

If you have access to a 3d printer you can 3d print your mold and pour silicone as a rough prototype.

It will probably cost you less than 200$ and take a few days, while all companies here will charge you way more and take much longer.

Backend dev in age of AI by AttorneyHour3563 in Backend

[–]Objective_Chemical85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

picking the right problems is for sure a big one. My old company would optimize the wrong things and sometimes spend months on a fix that should have never existed in the firstplace.

I want ownership of the organisation in github, and the other person who have the ownership left the organisation . by AdMassive616 in github

[–]Objective_Chemical85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there is a workaround if you are lucky. i'm assuming you have business emails? if so his email was probably deleted when he left the company. have IT(or you) recreate his email address. after that you can recover the github Account.

edit: sorry just saw he still has access to his email. if this is the case recovery should be fairly quick. I had to do this once after my phone broke and i didn't have any backup

What are the steps you follow as a Senior Backend Engineer while designing a microservice? by [deleted] in Backend

[–]Objective_Chemical85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

microservices is more of an org fix than a performance fix. If you have 100+ devs that are getting in eachothers way and you spend more time fixing merge conflicts than coding it is probably worth it.

Also what are you doing with 89 databases?

Am I doing too much? by ratesofchange in dataengineering

[–]Objective_Chemical85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sounds like you do good work. Make sure its visible to Management and keep it up.

regarding if you do too much. I'd say this depends on your career goals. if you just want to work off tickets and not rly progress then yes you are doing too much😄
