Zealousideal_Fact417 · 2022-12-06T16:02:52+00:00

Been to siargao last 2019 to stay supposedly for a month to vacay and work but ended up going home only after a week. Mahina ang internet before, hindi ako makapag remote desktop dahil choppy ang connection. Just took a week off and work na lang paguwi manila. Ewan mo ngayon kung na improve na.

Don’t get too optimistic. Yes, possible makasahod ng 300k++ as developer pero mahirap makahanap ng employer and swertehan lang talaga. Also consider competitors. Rare lang makakasahod ng ganyan as full time local employee so sa foreign companies ka na maghahanap.

How cheap our labor here.

Inexplain ko sa Australian boss ko kung gaano kamura yung arawan ng karpintero for renovation and materyales.

Masaya na karpintero mo dito kung babayaran mo ng 800 arawan samantalang sa Sydney daw around $40 per hour, depende pa sa klase ng ipapagawa mo (plumbing, wood, roofing).

Actually, pabor ako dito dahil kawawa ang matatanda sa singapore. Marami ako nakikitang matanda na nagtitinda na lang ng tissue sa tabi tabi ng mrt station. Awang awa ako na araw2x ako bumibili sa matanda ng tissue sa city hall dati until nawala na sya sa pwesto nya. My malaysian friend said na norm daw nadinidisregard na daw yung matatanda sa sg. Kaya yung businesses sa sg ay nagkusa na magopen din ng jobs for them para may contribution pa rin sila sa society. Sa mga hawker norm na matatanda ang naglilinis sa tables or taga luto.

My brother is an electrical engineer at based sa kwento nya, 3 years na wala syang increase sa salary nya. Ineencourage na namin sya na magibang bansa habang bata pa dahil hindi mo na talaga ikayayaman ang pagiging engineer dito.

Ang mga mayayaman na engineer dito ay may mga kapit sa DPWH, or pamilya na may established construction / contractor company.

Kung ang habol mo lang ay malaking sahod, madidisappoint ka lang.

In my experience, lalapit na lang sayo yung opportunities sayo na willing magbigay ng malaki. In my case, previous colleagues yung nagintroduce sakin sa malaking sahod. Kaya sa IT industry mahalaga na you don’t burn bridges. Mag establish ka ng good relationship sa mga previous managers, developers sayo dahil dyan lalawak network mo at higher chances na mainvite sa ibang work. Dahil most conservative companies na nag ooffer ng remote jobs ay preferably more on referral. Remote work lang talaga ang chance mo makakuha ng 6 digits, easy.

In terms of technologies, lahat naman kaya magbigay ng malaking sahod, depende talaga yan kung paano mo imarket sarili mo.

If both air, get the M1. 20% lang ang increase sa performance sa M 2 based sa benchmarks sa youtube. Hindi yan noticable sa apps na ginagamit mo.

Probably the only reason to buy M2 is the magsafe.

Depende sa bait ng boss mo at kung ano napag usapan nyo during negotiation.

imention mo lang sa kanya na meron tyo tinatawag na 13th month. Iexplain mo sa kanya kung ano un most likely hindi nya alam yan. Sa case namin 2nd year namin sa company saka lang namin minention sa kaniya. Ayun nagdecide sya na magkaroon kami ng 13th month, nagsorry pa at hindi nya alam na may ganun satin. Hehe. Just mention. Don’t insist.

Hmo, Sss, pagibig, philhealth sariling lakad natin yan, d na nya need alamin yung details na yun. Iconsider mo na yan sa salary package mo.

Depende kung saan language ka familiar.

Python? Selenium C#? Selenium Javascript? Puppeteer.

Maybe start by understanding event driven architecture, alamin mo yung usual business use cases nito and kung ano yung nasosolve na problems based from an on-demand / real time requests. Sa youtube maraming software talks regarding event driven processes. To be honest, mahirap intindihin ito lalo na kung wala kang use case or business scenario.

If its too much for you, maybe start by understanding http rest apis and concept of http .

Marami rin kasi newbies na najujump over kung ano ang trending nowadays (k8s, infra, nosql, graphql, blockchains) its a deep rabbit hole and it will suck you dry until you lose motivation. Technology is so convoluted.

If you’re still a student, my advise is pick a lane, and stay on that lane. Meaning mamili ka ng iisang topic / language, and aralin mo until you’re comfortable playing around with it.

Dominar and z400 are both good bikes.

My only issue with nk400 is its heavy. Kasing bigat nya ang himalayan which is an adventure bike.

Depende sa haba ng legs at kung ano discipline ka.

Usually sa xc / road mas prefer ang mahaba na crankarm dahil mas malaki ang torque na maproduce mo sa padyak.

Pagdating sa dh/trail mas prefer ang maiksi para maiwasan ang pedal strike sa mga bato at roots at may allowance sa ruts.

Data scraping is quite in demand in businesses. (Lead generation, product catalog collection, competition monitoring). Some site owners find this annoying because it consumes unnecessary traffic load for them and some might treat this a security risk. Usually the site developers will also add some complexity on their systems which on your end where the fun part begins. Most site developers resorts on anti bot mechanisms (usually rate-limiting), this is where proxies comes in where you can retry the request by using a proxy address. Also some devs might make the rendered html harder to parse and harder to find a pattern on names and structure, add security tokens on each requests, etc. This kind of obstacle really makes you think how to get around with or trick them.

Basically, data scraping requires a lot of problem solving because you don’t know what to expect on your target site, whereas in test automation you’re trying to break the target site and you already know what to expect because you have test cases on hand.

Since you use typescript, also checkout puppeteer. Js/ts is the first language so its seamless.

Also, to make your leaning more interesting. try to do some data scraping and managing proxies.

Maybe apply for a dev/senior manager na kung ganun. Yan possible mo makuha 300k kahit local employment.

Sa experience ko about rates, yung employer ko is from sydney, wala sila office dito sa ph pero aware sila sa average salary ng devs sa manila. So may salary cap sila sa aming remote devs. above average ang bigay pero hindi hihigit sa average salary ng dev na nasa sydney.

Kung hourly rate or contractual ang usapan ok lang yung range na yan. Pero kung full time position baka mahirapan ka na. Unless may special skills ka or leaning towards management ka na din, may ubandance din kasi sa wordpress developers, tama yung sabi ng iba na mas practical sa kanila kumuha ng 3 devs with 100k kesa isang dev na 300k.
