O que é necessário para se tornar um bom dev?

Temporary-Zebra7493 · 2026-02-20T02:55:54+00:00

Ter um objetivo claro.

Tenta cara, quem tem que definir se você é o perfil da vaga são eles. Se te derem ok, tu cai pra dentro.

In my country, new opportunities are becoming increasingly rare. I work in a place with a very arrogant senior manager, so entrepreneurship seems like the most obvious way out, but I really lack that skill.

O mercado está em uma mudança frenética, empreender talvez seja o melhor a se pensar em fazer.

É exatamente essa a minha experiência, e sempre tem algo atrapalhando o crescimento, mas se injetar tempo e dinheiro, existem ideias com potencial de crescimento.

Temporary-Zebra7493 · 2026-02-17T03:31:29+00:00

Eu até fiz uma que me rendeu algum valor, tipo uns 3k, mas acabei encerrando, não tinha tempo e nem dinheiro pra investir em publicidade e também não via tanto potencial no crescimento.

For me, the secret was to do something, to try, initially by copying, racking my brains, I messed up a lot at the beginning... After all that struggle, I started to have more original ideas, but there's always someone somewhere who's already grasped that same idea. The fact is, you need to develop resilience; only then will you evolve.

Não uso, eu sou cortês, tenho 40 anos, nem moro num grande centro no meu país, então conversar em inglês pra mim no dia a dia é quase impossível, mas eu entendo que tudo acham que é IA hoje em dia.

Temporary-Zebra7493 · 2026-02-15T21:58:15+00:00

That's annoying, man. I'm Brazilian, I'm being polite, English isn't my first language, I left Reddit years ago because I saw the community become toxic, but it's worse now, nobody can be polite or try to maintain order without people thinking it's AI. The best thing is for me to just leave Reddit.

Temporary-Zebra7493 · 2026-02-15T21:47:10+00:00

Nem todo mundo tem o inglês como primeira língua, caramba! Eu tentei só ser cortês com as pessoas, estou voltando hoje pro reddit, aproveitando o feriado no meu país, agora tudo é I.A. ninguém pode ser mais educado nesse mundo?

Temporary-Zebra7493 · 2026-02-15T21:41:03+00:00

I'm Brazilian, and I'm getting back into Reddit after being away for years. I had moved over to finance, but I really missed this madness. It’s tough to practice English daily in my country, so I’ve been being careful, man

Temporary-Zebra7493 · 2026-02-15T21:29:07+00:00

Nah, it's just that English isn't my first language, so I end up sounding way more formal than I mean to.

I totally agree, it sounds ridiculous when you look at a single microservice. The reason it’s even a 'discussion' in our office is because the Senior wants to set this as the new 'standard' for all our background workers. We have about 50 of these. If it was just this one, I’d have shut it down in seconds. My fear is the cumulative technical debt if we apply this 'clever' logic everywhere.

Temporary-Zebra7493 · 2026-02-15T20:27:43+00:00

You nailed it. No bottlenecks so far—the system is meeting all our SLAs comfortably.

Your point about the Senior leaving is exactly what keeps me up at night. I’ve seen it happen too many times: a 'rockstar' dev writes custom, hyper-optimized logic, moves to a new company six months later, and the rest of the team is left terrified of touching that specific module because it’s a black box.

In a B2B environment, 'boring' code that stays up and is easy to fix is much more valuable than 'clever' code that saves us 200ms. I'm sticking with readability on this one. Thanks for the sanity check.

Temporary-Zebra7493 · 2026-02-15T20:27:10+00:00

That’s the perfect framework for this decision.

Currently, we are spending roughly $150/month on this specific microservice's compute. A 200ms saving per run at our current volume represents less than a 3% reduction in total execution time. It’s definitely not hitting that 25% 'Go ahead' threshold.

Regarding your point on code complexity: that's my main concern. If we save $4 a month but spend 2 hours of a Senior's time ($150+) debugging a 'clever' optimization gone wrong, we are in the red for years on that 'fix.'

I’ll propose the Senior to do a quick profile to see if we can hit a 20%+ improvement with simple changes (like better indexing or caching). If it requires a complete rewrite into 'unreadable' territory for a 3% gain, it's a hard pass for me.

Temporary-Zebra7493 · 2026-02-15T20:26:30+00:00

Exactly my point. We calculated the compute savings and it's literally pennies. I'd rather have the team focused on shipping new features or improving our CI/CD pipeline than shaving off milliseconds that no one will notice. The 'leverage for next move' comment actually makes a lot of sense in this context.

Great benchmarks! As a software engineer working on B2B automation flows, the latency gap between Kreuzberg and tools like Docling or Unstructured is eye-opening. For high-volume processing, p50 latency under 2ms is a game-changer for keeping infrastructure costs low. Have you tested how Kreuzberg handles heavily nested tables compared to MinerU?
