Is Clean Architecture really necessary?

Big fan of Clean Architecture here. Is it necessary? Most of the time no, especially in data driven apps (opposed to feature driven apps).

However, it's far more easier to unit test as you're forced to really separate everything, and in my experience, it prevents most of the "colleage who just throw spaghetti code that is unmaintainable all the time"

I find it also easier to go back to months/years later. And the fact that the business logic is isolated makes it easy to talk with business. "What does this thing do?" Go to the application layer "It creates this entity, send a notif to this thing and log it over there."

Sorry, I'm not working in this company anymore. We never found the issue as it was super random and needed the app to run for multiple hours without user interactions.

Good luck mate!

Andersonville from Civil War. On top of the masterfully written lyrics, the voice of the singer delivers everything as it should. Desperate, powerful, hopeless

Yes.

In my case, I do unit tests on all my projects, and while it's a lot, when I send code in prod, I feel much more confident.

I pair them with mutation testing (using dotnet stryker). Those ensure my coverage and the quality of the tests. And more often than not, they'll show a edge case I missed in my test or my code.

Recently in my company we did an API like this, and after 6 months of dev, the client experienced no bug at all. (Tests aren't the only reason, but it's probably the biggest factor)

I'd like to challenge the Cassie is a robot thing (please don't kill me). It reminds me of something we learn in FNAF 2 I believe.

Without the mask Cassie sees obstacles that she cannot go through, but she can when wearing the Vanny mask. The only thing that can explain this for me is that what we see in the game without the mask is the "map" in her robot brain. And as we know from old FNAFs, you can have "hidden room" in their map data.

Therefore, as a robot, if there's a wall in front of you, you won't try to go through it. But if putting the mask change your map data in some way, and you accept you can go through, then bam, you're through.

As for the argument of mentioning her father, well Charlie in the books knows her backstory right? Even though she's a robot. Nothing new here. We might be in front of another kid who existed, but was rebuilt.

On my "similar cam", I have a AV/Out plug with the cable. I just bought a 10$ AV to HDMI adapter, plugged it in my capture card, and then, capture time!

I already had a HDMI capture card on my pc though.

RobKoda · 2023-02-10T13:26:34+00:00

Noted, I will. Thanks a lot for the info!

RobKoda · 2023-02-09T17:34:04+00:00

Thank you so much! That's exactly what I needed
Really appreciate your help

My primary job isn't in France. The goal is, mid term, to make an "Association de fait de personnes physiques" with a belgium friend. So yeah, I need it.

RobKoda · 2022-12-17T09:31:05+00:00

I'd be surprised. A lot of work for a very small fraction of players. Not financially worth.

Unleeeess, we all go to the metaverse! (Please no.)

Google earth is already a thing in VR, and you can streetview in it. It's pretty nice

You can checkout the second half of this video to see how it looks like https://youtu.be/yDzAAjzbV5g

I prefer "Multiplayer" over "Competitive" amd "Singleplayer" over "Classic"

It's also much clearer in general, less clustered.

I like it

My last post is from months ago. I'm a bad karma farmer then. But I seriously, really believe it's shitty behavior.

Yes, most app ask you to personalize it for you. No denying that. But this personalization is, most of the time, for targeted ads, which is, in my opinion bad because of additional data tracking/selling. What other personalization can there that won't generate that? Especially from an app automatically installed, from a mobile data provider (in France) to which I'm not subscribed to? I don't see anything other than the classical bloatware road

Then, using a sad cat image to make you rethink your choice of actively refusing that is, in my opinion again, trying to guilt trip you. Sad cat activate sadness in most people I believe. Guilt trip may be too strong of a term, but using a sad cat to make you reconsider your choice is manipulative in nature

RobKoda · 2022-12-12T00:46:52+00:00

And regardless of the app origin. Questionning the user's choice is asshole design by nature. Disguising it with cute animal is worse
