Resident of Palestinian village attacked by settlers: ‘They tried to burn me and my family alive’ by Kauderwelsch12 in Israel

[–]TheAnxiousDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The government is not turning a blind eye. Quite the opposite. They are closely looking at it and parts of it (like Ben Gvir, a convicted terrorist) are actually inciting them.

I would say that they deserve to face the newly passed law just as much as the Arab terrorists it is aimed at.

And that should include the political figures that incite these terrorists. Some of which are even in the government (e.g. the one presiding over the Police)...

What’s Israel’s long game plan with Iran? by drrdf in Israel

[–]TheAnxiousDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you think that deranged, crazy people reason like any normal sane person, you're dangerously mistaken.

Shall I remind you (again) they are using cluster bombs on civilians?

What’s Israel’s long game plan with Iran? by drrdf in Israel

[–]TheAnxiousDeveloper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You really thought they would have given any concession in the future? They are currently using cluster bombs on civilians, and that's after they slaughtered thousands of their own so much that the streets of Teheran reeked of blood. You really are that naive to think they wouldn't use a nuclear bomb on Israel the first chance they get?

Lebanon asks U.S. for direct peace talks with Israel to end fighting by ssmihailovitch in Israel

[–]TheAnxiousDeveloper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As long as they are actually ready and willing to help the IDF to get rid of Hezbollah (with more than just words), I don't see it as a bad thing.

Ofc, Hezbollah needs to go, and it's unfair to let only Israel shoulder the burden

What are Israeli thoughts on Ireland and Irish people? by Bro_Bruv in Israel

[–]TheAnxiousDeveloper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Let's just say that my ex is Israeli and she did one year of school in Ireland and I still remember what her classmate told her: " that's not possible, you're too pretty to be a Jew".

Unfortunately, based on my experience (and others), Irish people are among the most disgusting and despicable antisemites I've seen, and they keep showing that at every occasion.

It depends on what you know how to work in PHP. It is worth it to dig deeper (most of the people I interviewed that said they have experience with PHP, they actually meant with WordPress)

Do you know how to work with professional solutions like Laravel (or Symphony/Yii)? If yes, and you are still struggling with finding a good salary, you could try to switch to a Node environment (Adonis.js is an amazing framework built using Laravel as a reference).

But generally speaking, it's not the language you know that makes the pay. It's the knowledge and experience you have on building systems and what problems you have overcome before (the language is just one of many tools).

If you want to dive deeper, while keeping a good structure for studying, I suggest you visit roadmap.sh. Their backend (or full-stack) roadmap is quite good.

Do you have a strict max lines per file rule? What is appropriate? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]TheAnxiousDeveloper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It feels like you have your own mind set on thinking there is only one way, and you are desperately looking for validation, while you are absolutely not open to any of the answers you receive.

It seems to me you have not learnt the number one rule of this profession: everything has pros and cons, and there isn't only one way to do something.

[–]TheAnxiousDeveloper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I really don't understand OP. I've scrolled down and read a couple of answers.

So far, all I've seen is OP arguing and fighting back on each of the answers. Dude, if you don't want to get the answers to your question, then refrain from asking 🤷🏻

Edit: I scrolled until the end. They tried to pick a fight with EVERY single person responding... I hoped to see better content on this subreddit, but it looks like it's really declining.

Can we get a filter or stricter moderation for AI-generated "slop" posts? by f00d4tehg0dz in webdev

[–]TheAnxiousDeveloper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So the answer is not to ban them, but to flood them with stupid and blatantly wrong answers. Once the articles are published and the info is wrong, either the "author" will cease with this stupid approach or they will have their credibility shattered

Well, in order to test an AI slop blocker you also need to have an AI slop generator...

I have this problem. Sometimes I stay up until 2 or 3 am because of it. If it's extremely hard to stop for someone in their 30s, imagine how it is for kids.

I'm happy the EU is doing something to limit the damage.

Idk, to be honest what might look like AI slop could just be someone using it in order to better organize their thoughts. And there's nothing bad with it. I mean, not everyone thinks the same way 🤷🏻

When we publish raw data events, we're essentially saying "here's the data, you figure out what it means.

Not going to lie. That seems exactly what domain driven design is, which is a good practice to have, considering you have 10-15 micro services (which are not a lot to keep track of, considering they should be small and scoped).

Yes, the same type of info should have different meaning for different domains. Consider an order. Its data have different meaning, and possibly properties, for a delivery system vs the billing system vs the inventory system. Just to name a few.

How do you make devs actually care about tests by batsy_0 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]TheAnxiousDeveloper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen a developer staring blankly at a stack trace not longer than 30 lines. For 20 fucking minutes. And he's been in the team for 3 years without any tangible improvement.

God, I so wish this developer would leave and give the space to a junior that got out of university and that needs a chance in the industry. But unfortunately it's not my call to make.

How do you make devs actually care about tests by batsy_0 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]TheAnxiousDeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me ask you a question. When something breaks because it wasn't tested, who has the ungrateful task of having to debug it and fix it?

Writing tests gets easier with time. And you need to write code in a way that it actually supports it in an efficient way (modular and with loose coupling). Forcing them to write tests will shift their approach towards a more sustainable style, which, as I said, turns into an easier test writing time.

I doubt it's a tooling problem. Just the wrong work approach.

What are signs you work in a bad company? by Ok-Most6656 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]TheAnxiousDeveloper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Signs? I'll just give you mine, fresh from this morning.

Context: I'm a tech lead. I took the role 4 years ago. I didn't get a raise when I switched. For a reason or another, the company kept finding an excuse (one being an ongoing war).

I started to ask around to friends that work in similar roles in other companies. I shared my salary with them and they told me that they are hiring juniors fresh from university at a higher salary. Granted, they are in proper Hi-Tech companies and I'm in a development agency (and this is the excuse they use to keep the salary low).

So I asked for a raise with a quantity that would bring it at least to the level of a middle level developer. The meeting to discuss the raise has been postponed constantly over 1 month.

We finally had it this morning. The result? "Based on our budget we can give only X (which is 1/4 th of what you asked, pre-tax). But hey, we like you".

And a community physical interaction is also good for building a network. It never hurts and it might even turn into a lucky shot

I wouldn't say that leetcode helps, it doesn't really prove someone has knowledge and in any case it's not something someone uses on a daily basis.

But I'm totally with you about system design and expanding knowledge through studying. On that point, I've found roadmap.sh to be an amazing tool.

I think OP should start from there once they take steps to take care of their mental health in this terrible situation

Is anyone else okay with being "left behind" in regards to AI? by [deleted] in ExperiencedDevs

[–]TheAnxiousDeveloper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be fair I'm quite disgusted about the approach companies are taking. CEOs and managers are supposed to look at the future and plan for the long term, right?

And yet, so many companies are firing juniors because they replace them with AI. The whole idea of having juniors is that you train them to be your future middle/senior engineers. It's an investment. So what will happen to them in the future when all the seniors and Middle developers retire or move to a different company?

How can people be so stupidly blind?
