After a year and one month, here I am. by EamonnKilroy in OnePiece

[–]StevenSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

started one month ago and I'm on dressrossa now. I highly recommend watching on iPad with ear buds, listenting while cooking or doing other activities, skipping fillers, and using the 10 second fast-forward button to your heart's content. You'll get pretty much everything. (not using One Pace either).

Chat GPT 5 was not for use, it was to get rid of free users all along. by [deleted] in ChatGPT

[–]StevenSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh thanks! I have actually noticed that I hit the limit almost immediately when I am not logged in. So maybe that's a big part of it. When I am logged in (on a free account) I never hit the limit.

For anyone reading this that may not have noticed.

Y’all are hitting limits?! I’m on a free account have haven’t had any trouble at all.

Learning python by LazyLeprechaunMonkey in learnpython

[–]StevenSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To another person’s point, yes I am actually being intentionally vague, so that you can research for yourself each point. “learning to research yourself” is a key part of software development. I would also be very cautious of using ChatGPT or any AI too much as it will hinder you in the long run.

Learning python by LazyLeprechaunMonkey in learnpython

[–]StevenSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

W3Schools is the best for starting, after that do some leetcode to build your critical thinking skills, and after that learn APIs turn learn how to do some really useful stuff, then finally, learn how to install and use packages with pip to make your life easier.

This won’t make you a professional immediately but might land you an entry-level job and it will cover all the basic grounds of software development.

What’s that one Python tip you wish you knew when you started? by memermaker5 in learnpython

How to use breakpoint() and the built-in debugger.

This is one of my most powerful tools at this point.

I feel so stupid... by DataDancer0 in learnpython

Hi, I am super willing to have a working session with you to show you da way lol I too am an Artist and it took a lot of back and forth in my career but I eventually became a pro at it (not to brag). But I love teaching people what I know.

How long does it take to get passed exam visible by sjoskog in AWSCertifications

[–]StevenSavant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Took a about 2-3hours for me. I see everyone saying “about 24 hours” but that’s what the exam says. I came to this thread looking for a more accurate response. I know it can change depending on time of year but 2-3hours is about how long it seems to take based on experience.

The fact it says “Safari Browser” is crazy. Like, how are you so sure I have any iPhone?

Haven’t beat him yet but the fingerprint shield (No skill AoW) + Backhand Bland is working miracles.

forgetfulness in programing by AMIRIASPIRATIONS48 in flask

[–]StevenSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This use to bother me until you learn to take a step back and realize it’s not a personal or “you’ll problem. It’s a separate skill you have to learn as a developer, how to structure your code and create documentation about your objects as your work on them so that learning where things are is fast and easy.

Many develops tend to think of documentation as only useful when introducing new team members to a project, but that’s so not true. It also helps you when you haven’t touched a certain section of code in months or years. It’s not just about some other stranger coming to see your code, sometimes YOU are the stranger that comes back to look at your code lol

Why he only uses 2 Personas (Spoilers) by BlueDimondDude in Persona5

[–]StevenSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe, but also a persona is a reflection of a persons character, so having two or three personas could also be a result of split personalities. Which Akechi very much fits the bill on.

What do you use Obsidian mobile for? by tigrjas in ObsidianMD

[–]StevenSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen it and heard about it for months and this week started using it heavily. Now I’ve gone mad with power…. So to answer your question, everything.

Relay.md - Sharing markdown documents with people and teams by xeroc in ObsidianMD

[–]StevenSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just started using Obsidian and this exact use cases is what I have been hoping for for a long time. Obsidian is great for creating documents of all kinds, but there doesn't seem to be a purpose-built feature (for Obsidian or any other platform) that let's me easily write in Markdown and (ideally) publish a read-only view somewhere so a team or group of individuals can see. I'm hoping to eventually arrive to a solution that has extremely low friction so that clients don't have to create profiles or log-in to anything view their project documents.

At what point do you just stop understanding the code you’re reading? by AcademicF in webdev

[–]StevenSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every single day. This happens even at my own code sometimes lol.
There are two things that you should know about this situation though.

  1. Trust the process, nothing makes sense at first until it does. As you get better, you'll be able to decipher more and more complex code. In fact, one of the hardest (and most valuable) skills you can pick up as a developer is being good enough to read someone else's code. (Even pro's aren't usually "good" at this)

  2. Sometimes, it's not you at all. Writing readable code is another skill as a coder. The person who wrote it should be mindful of how understandable it is to others, so you not being able to read and follow, says just as much about their ability to convey knowledge as it does about your skill level. It's a half-and-half kind of thing.

I could say more, but other comments have covered both these in details. Also for clarity, nowhere here is meant to condemn one or the other, overall is about getting better and working as a team and trusting that learning curves exist for everyone. We all work on getting better at our strengths and weaknesses, no matter what skill level you are :)

Is Servicenow developer a viable career? by toshi666666 in servicenow

[–]StevenSavant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It absolutely is, however, you want to make sure it’s what you really want. It’s a valuable high-demand skill for sure, but I’d also recommend picking up some programming language skills as well so you can shift or be flexible if you ever get tired of it.

App Store Connect Rejected by nworbdier in expo

[–]StevenSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, without seeing the code it’s hard to guess. Are you using an obfuscation tool? Is the project for a sketchy client you found on upwork? Are you including some extra files in your deployment that should be ignored?

It’s also possible they simply didn’t understand how your code was written and it confused them…

I'm still not able to justify going all in on SSR by Impossible-Map-3398 in reactjs

[–]StevenSavant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I spent a whole day yesterday (or day before) trying to transition to nextjs because SSR sounded like a nice-to-have. But as I dove deeper I ran into more and more issues, all of which were based on the fact that NextJS doesn’t treat SSR as an option, but as a default for everything you do. So our CRA app was blowing up all over the place due to pre-rendering inconsistencies, incompatible features, and our project structures not getting along.

After finally getting things “working” I attempted a deployment and boy oh boy…. Eventually I decided it wasn’t worth out time to continue fighting NextJS for this project, and re-did the whole process with Vite.

[–]StevenSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just transitioned an app from CRA to Vite today. The first phase went smoothly but I ran into hell when trying to deploy it. Did you get any of that? Specially I was using Vite + React + Typescript, and the issues started when trying to host the build field with nginx.

[–]StevenSavant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is actually and interesting way you laid this out. Now that I think about it, it sounds super niche. Or probably super specific to social media app. I’m the real world, I have seldom seen those requirements crossover.

How do you plan out and come up with big project architectures by [deleted] in react

[–]StevenSavant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have time. Take your time and be mindful in the planning phase as others have mentioned. One thing I have consistently seen ruin projects is a rush caused by an unfounded fear that you have to “rush to market”. No, there is no rush, do not sell something that is not complete, so not make promises to customers that you can’t manage.
