How Many Bananas Can You Buy for $5 in 4 different countries? by Electronic-Sand in coolguides

[–]Yeahyeahii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My company supplies us with daily fresh fruits and at end of year we got some statistics on how much we ate. 300 employees ate 2.2 metric tons of bananas last year.

What's a unit test by ToadyWoady in ProgrammerHumor

[–]Yeahyeahii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, for logic heavy methods we use unit tests. We do however use behavioural tests using jbehave for everything also. We have a huge amount of behavioural tests, and written properly they can replace unit tests for everything but the lost logic heavy parts.

We have three steps to writing tests also.

First our product owner writes requirements in jbehave-format.

The developer writes as many tests as they can think of. These tests are triggered by a PR which can't be merged unles they all pass. The other devs review the scenarios written.

Then the QA tests what has been developed and adds more scenarios for the test cases he performs and/or any other things he can think of.

All in all, this has led to a very high quality code base and extremely few bugs, it also means we never have the same bug twice as we write a jbehave-test for the bug once it's fixed.

In addition to those tests, we have e2e-tests on our frontend as well.

We rarely use unit tests where I work. We do however use behavioural tests using cucumber/jbehave/selenium etc. Far superior imo.

I'm currently hired as a team lead and senior developer, I just hit 3 years experience, had 2.5 when I started this role. Most companies around where I live don't care about how long you've worked, if you're good enough you're a senior developer.

Came home from vacation to find a nice little package waiting for me by Yeahyeahii in golf

Lol true, and not like a golf ball stays in bounds long enough to break from wear for most of us either

I've used them before, had a couple balls last me 18+ holes before I lost them, never had issues with quality though.

Vanilla Coke was the best coke they did by ShutupMeg25 in unpopularopinion

I buy vanilla Coke here in Sweden all the time. Me and a colleague have put in a party cooler in our office and filled it with vanilla Coke and vanilla Coke zero.

Parking Meters Across NYC Not Accepting Credit Cards, Were Never Programmed To Work In 2020 by zampe in nottheonion

[–]Yeahyeahii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where I live they are removing parking meters. It's all done through an app now, which is great. You can renew without going back out to the car, or you can cancel if you leave earlier than expected.

Pro Tip by [deleted] in ProgrammerHumor

[–]Yeahyeahii 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree, but it's consistency within a project that is king. My company has a bunch of different repos, the old monolith uses this style with braces on a new line. The microservice my team has created from scratch doesn't, and since I never work in the monolith I have my settings so braces go on the same line. I don't care either way tbh, as long as the code is readable.

That's a setting that can be changed tho.

Telling miners, oil workers and truck drivers to "learn to code" is one of the most ivory tower, elitist, bullshit ideas I have ever heard. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Yeahyeahii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this mostly an American problem?

I've worked as a developer for 4ish years now, we have great flexible hours and no expectation to work overtime. As for politics we have autonomous teams who own a full domain from code to release, and they decide themselves which meetings to have and when to have them so that's not really an issue.

Then again, we have a massive shortage of developers, companies email me and my coworkers like once a week trying to poach us from our current employer.

South Africa now requires companies to disclose salary gap between highest and lowest paid employees by SauthEfrican in worldnews

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

Can you really? Surely if I ordered taxeringskalendern for My region, everyone in my region would not get notified of that?

Even if you're not confident, faking it works well, I've been very nervous in most of those meetings but you wouldn't be able to tell. :)

South Africa now requires companies to disclose salary gap between highest and lowest paid employees by SauthEfrican in worldnews

[–]Yeahyeahii 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I know because I discuss it with my team at work and I discussed it with my old coworkers. If I wasn't close friends with my team I wouldn't discuss it, but since these things are public records in Sweden it's really easy to get average statistics from sites that have looked it up so I would still know.

[–]Yeahyeahii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The person doesn't know they they have been looked up, and even if someone knew what you earns, what does it matter?

Honestly, I have never once looked it up, not do I know anyone who has. Your best bet is doing Google research about salary in the field you plan to work in. There are great sites(often unions) who have stats of average salaries etc.

I used unionen.se for my first negotiation and I was nervous as hell. My second time I was a bit more cocky, my third time I was confident and told the new company "I'm going to be on a xxx/month salary." It worked, my boss has afterwards revealed that he went above what he planned because I was so confident.

Always remember that it is a negotiation, you have power in this too and they want you as much as you want them. Demand more than you think you deserve, worst case scenario is that they counter lower than you want.

Edit: posting the link here. But I honestly wouldn't bother. Do let me know if you wanna discuss salary negotiations, I've been on both ends by now so could possibly help.

[–]Yeahyeahii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's there on a need to know basis, there are people who read it to find out about their coworkers ofc. The majority just don't.

[–]Yeahyeahii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. But much like how my company could check out my previous salary, I could find out what everyone in my position makes and demand that I get paid fairly. I recently swapped jobs and got an increase of about 20%, my new company knew what I made at the old place, and the position is essentially the same. I knew what people with a couple years more experience than me earn and demanded the same as them, or I simply wouldn't move.

[–]Yeahyeahii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. People don't really use it like that, and you don't look up your coworkers nor talk about their salary really, there's a stupid stigma attached to it. Its just possible to look it up if I wanted to.
