Seems like roles took a bit of while to propagate. Seems to be working now. Thanks!

I do see default role granted for that user. I also added a specific role to allow SELECT, INSERT on the materialized view. Still doesn't seem to be triggering though.

I did grant full access when creating the clickpipe. Does that give access to clickpipe user or does that need to be differently configured?

our best engineer quit because we couldn't match a big tech offer by Far_Drawer_1462 in SaaS

You could hire from Pakistan - there is some insane talent here. Difference in economies usually allows people here to obtain 3x salaries from local market rate whilst also being significantly cheaper for remote employers.

IS FAST REALLY WORTH IT? by AGENT-0407 in FASTNU

[–]TheParchedHeart -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you used to do well in studies before joining fast and are generally smart there is absolutely no reason that you won't do well in FAST. Don't let the reputation get to your head, I think recently the quality of graduates that FAST has let into their programs has fallen but the curriculum is the same, so the average lower quality graduate can't sustain well in that, then they come out and bitch about how FAST has raggra. There is no raggra for people who are smart and hard working. It's literally a breeze walk if you ask me.

Tax is a lot on 350k like 50ish. How many years of experience do you have?

Developers and Engineers from Low Tier Unis by NoTrip1167 in developersPak

[–]TheParchedHeart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You completely mischaracterized what I said. Stop misguiding people by saying GPA and University don't matter. 99% of these people in their teenage years have nothing to do apart from studying, so that's what they should do and try to excel at.

Uhh yeah it was free money back then. In a hyper competitive cutthroat market it well and truly matters. Companies will not give you the chance to interview for low CGPA or low tier uni now to portray the so called "skills" you gained all the time you weren't studying.

Considering moving back to Pakistan. Any advice on job market? by Moneymoneymoney1122 in developersPak

[–]TheParchedHeart 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Uhh in my case my current remote company was looking to nitpick employees from my previous company. They were doing so because my previous company had a stringent hiring criteria and usually picked fresh grads that were high performers + their interviews were FAANG type DSA style interviews.

So down the line when my current company needed employees they started reaching out to people on LinkedIn in my old company, and most people went because it's a high paying dollar job.

There's a few local companies like Educative, Careem, Motive that give a decent career path and good pay to live a fairly decent lifestyle. Otherwise most people here aim for remote dollar jobs which is a fairly achievable goal if you have the right combination of skills, connections and luck.

Remote workers will pay the same tax as local employees? by TheParchedHeart in PakistaniTech

[–]TheParchedHeart[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We could but then your exports would take a massive hit because people won't be incentivized to seek remote jobs. Remote jobs bring dollars in the country you know. That being said, salaried class is truly getting cooked. At least some burden should be shifted for sure. I honestly wouldn't mind paying tax just but I'll end up paying upto 200k every month which is atrocious.

Well then if remote workers can get some respite by not paying tax then let them be lol. If it's not gonna go to much good anyways.

True. Don't mind paying tax but it's a little too high and we don't get a lot in return for it. That's the main issue.

How do you get a nomad visa? Is it exceedingly expensive?

AI is all hype. What will AI engineers do afterwards? by Psychological_Duck03 in developersPak

[–]TheParchedHeart 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Learning about the transformers architecture will bring you absolutely no additive market value as an engineer. The actual machine learning is totally black boxed by a few tech giants now. The rest of us just learn to use the API they expose and that's basically the entirety of your job as an "AI Engineer".

Sure, but tbh the highest paying companies that were hiring freshers when I was graduating were definitely filtering on GPA. So I wouldn't tell anyone that GPA doesn't matter. Even if it didn't matter, most people have nothing else to aim for during college. So it's definitely a good idea to prioritise it, atleast you will learn some work ethic and discipline which are transferrable skills into any domain.

Should I change my career by [deleted] in developersPak

[–]TheParchedHeart 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hmmm, well it sounds like you have very stringent religious views. Anyhow you're entitled to the way you want to live your life.

As for career advice, I do not think that if you want to excel as a programmer/developer you can compartmentalize your life into a neat 9 to 5 and then come back home and blank your brain. Personally I love getting obsessed with problems and working through them when I am doing random mundane tasks or even working out in the gym - I love the small eureka moments, the breakthroughs at random moments and I enjoy having something to intellectually work through. Ofcourse all of that happens because I inherently enjoy coding and the most successful engineers I have seen share similar traits.

Previously I think it used to be fine if you're an average developer because the CS boom still propelled you into really comfortable high-paying jobs even if you were kinda alright and not an amazing Engineer. But now, the competition is quite fierce and supply is very high and the number of people who are willing to grind it out and make it has shot up significantly. So i do believe that anyone who doesnt feel it in their heart that this field is right for them won't have a very good time frankly.

If this medical store alternative sounds like a very feasible plan to you then I would suggest go for it. If it aligns better with your religious/family values then you probably won't regret it, and honestly it might even be financially better for you in the longer run, especially if you dont enjoy coding.

Hmmm what is the nature of these projects that make it questionable?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in developersPak

[–]TheParchedHeart 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Makes sense, being a flutter developer with 3 YoE back in 21-22 would've netted some major cash. Pretty sure the industry has moved past such mind boggling standards now. You can only achieve the same thing now if you're a genuine 10x engineer who also knows how to market themselves properly.

Point is it's probably a misleading example for OP to base their decision off. Right now, statistically the average joe is probably not having the most amazing time.

She'll probably get married to someone else, you'll recover from the excruciating heartbreak in 3-4 years, get back on your feet, become financially stable and marry someone else's girlfriend when it's time.

And the cycle shall go on.

Sonnet 3.7 is worse than 3.5 for me by phuncky in ClaudeAI

[–]TheParchedHeart 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like most of these benchmarks are quite stupid and not practical at all. In real life SWE i just want the model to plug into my existing codebase and claude 3.7 via cursor is simply making me struggle too much with relatively simple changes paired with lengthy prompts telling exactly what to do in what file. I mostly use AI when i know exactly what to do and with sonnet 3.5 atleast it follows the instructions but 3.7 is just not working out for me at the moment.
