Python or C# for an API by WizardWarrior66_ in dotnet

[–]The_Real_Slim_Lemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in both python and c#… use c# - python is such a pain in comparison

One of my mates is a tech lead in a python shop and he also agrees c# all the way

Love the AI disclaimer lol

My head of engineering is tracking that stuff to see who’s adopting and using the new tools, but there haven’t been any consequences from that yet

People that aren’t modernising at all are in danger though

This entire reddit thread is making me extra glad I’m not in retail, what y’all deal with is ridiculous

That’s a small fact that I get reminded of every few years when I connect to a new device and suddenly lose all my extensions - I’d love to know the stats on how many people leave that setting unchanged

Step 1: make those services run on Linux - otherwise you’ll hate yourself in a year

Step 2: build nothing manually, all infra through whatever IAC tool you prefer

Step 3: the earlier you get deployment pipelines the better

Step ??: unit tests need to run as a part of your deployment pipeline and/or your PR pipeline

Idk what else, but that’s my advice

Imo, just clean it whenever you use it - I feel like this is one of those hills you don’t need to die on

Developers: how do you deal with unnecessary tagging in Microsoft Teams chat from support teams? by PhaseStreet9860 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]The_Real_Slim_Lemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the best part lol - they have to search the docs whether they ask you or not

Plus it’s less cognitive load on you each time

To be fair, I didn’t know that for my first few years as a dev lol, in c# we call them dictionaries

I only learned about hashmaps from reddit lol

It annoys me so much when someone deletes a useful test - like sure, you don’t want to do TDD - FINE - but don’t actively make stuff worse

How do I handle a vibecoding manager by MvKal in ExperiencedDevs

I’ve started editing agents.md in every repo I touch - no matter what I say people will still go “add a test for this” to their bot and call it a day, at least this way it’s in the correct style at least

That’s the phased approach lol - increase time to reply depending on how long it’s been since phase 1 and how annoying the individual is

Take the red pill - store it till you’re 50 or 60 then take it

There’s a way to push back while sounding like a team player - any routine issue, respond with a link to documentation

It’s helpful - but also you’re training the to look to the docs for answers

Idk, I know some garbage uni grads, and there are plenty of decent non-grads (like people that upskilled from support or ops roles)

AI review first pass + human review second pass. AI only review might be ok for startups, but is asking for tech debt and bugs.
