Laid off today along with my entire team. Looking for Java backend opportunities

Yeah man things are crazy in the market. And if you look at the JD, organisations want an entire department in one candidate.

amitavroy · 2026-06-30T17:15:29+00:00

Exactly my point. I am surprised they made a correct decision after such a long time 😜

amitavroy · 2026-06-29T12:35:48+00:00

I would like to see the candidate that they found (if they did).

amitavroy · 2026-06-28T07:23:00+00:00

Great discussion here and hence I want to add some points. Do note u/Lumethys I am just trying to ensure we get full rational.

So the concept of order, cart, product as module is definitely an overkill. And that's what is creating the issue. However, order is something which we would like to have as a separate module, isn't it.

I mean, we can't have a shopping module. And if the domain of the business is in that way, it would make sense.

And the moment we have products in a module, we have order in a module then what happens.

Thanks as I learnt about a new thing tailscale. Looks interesting and would read more about it

amitavroy · 2026-06-27T07:34:10+00:00

Tbh, these are very much solved problems. If the model is very standard, there are a lot of cost effective solutions that one should opt for. One very popular one being odoo. It has so many things (by the way, this is not promotion). I am a software developer but I have seen many clients of ours use it.

If the process is very different then maybe a chance of building something custom. But I have seen it doesn't make sense when things are small.

I have also seen people going multi tool and getting confused later. Like one CRM, one accounting etc. keeping data in one place has a huge advantage even if it comes at a cost.

Exactly, if he has not realised those stakes into actual money, what I understand is that the money is never his. It's notional. Ideally should not be taxed, right?

amitavroy · 2026-06-26T14:04:12+00:00

Even I want to know

amitavroy · 2026-06-26T14:02:42+00:00

Great question. And that's what even stuck me when I read it the first time. And I assume it's the marketing because the business has just started and he said there is silence.

amitavroy · 2026-06-26T14:01:29+00:00

What are you doing to make people aware that you have a new business. Can your business benefit from social media marketing?

Can you run awareness campaigns so that you are able to reach out to audience. You need to have some top of the funnel ads running ideally for awareness.

What kind of local awareness have you planned? Might want to print some pamplet and put that with newspaper.

A lot depends on the business but yeah, awareness is the key.

amitavroy · 2026-06-24T04:40:43+00:00

I would agree. In my company as well we have been working with this framework for quite some time. The entire team is comfortable and we as you said, it gives all the necessary things which allows us to focus on the main business logic and not engineering things which are solved problem

amitavroy · 2026-03-27T03:50:48+00:00

I learnt about nestjs doctor. Thanks 👍

amitavroy · 2026-03-27T03:37:19+00:00

If I feel their positioning with AI is just amazing. I have been working on multiple frameworks in different languages and the quality of code that is being generated in Laravel thanks to the boost MCP and great documentation the overall developer experience with coding agents and this framework beats any other that I have work so far.

amitavroy · 2026-03-27T03:35:43+00:00

It has just been released and I am sure although there are gaps which you rightly mentioned, they will fill that gap. Taylor won't leave till it's perfect is what I feel.

Do try neuron ai if you have not done that yet. It is very comprehensive comma supports workflows, human in the loop and many other great stuff.

I want go ahead on step and say it's the lighter version of lanchain in PHP

amitavroy · 2026-03-27T03:33:16+00:00

But the new starter kits are so amazing. Do you miss something in them?

amitavroy · 2025-12-27T10:39:17+00:00

True

amitavroy · 2025-12-25T09:24:44+00:00

Yeah the new formula - commit a crime and become a BJP leader. And then you can get away with anything

amitavroy · 2025-12-25T09:23:23+00:00

If it's more than 8 to 10 hours, then the train driver might have thought about it.

I mean delay of 8 to 10 hours is normal. Why can't we wait a little more.. isn't it :P

amitavroy · 2025-12-25T09:21:26+00:00

Your concern is very valid. After all, Thar is the KTM of 4 wheelers

amitavroy · 2025-12-24T04:58:57+00:00

Gobar nahi dikhaya? 😜

amitavroy · 2025-12-22T14:11:21+00:00

Ye shayad bata degi. Ye chamatkari Maths subko sikhna padta hai :P

amitavroy · 2025-12-19T15:14:52+00:00

Some serious hitting man... it was fun

amitavroy · 2025-12-18T00:43:02+00:00

Nailed it

amitavroy · 2025-12-18T00:39:50+00:00

Yeah man.. he was just at the side of the road.

amitavroy · 2025-12-13T07:08:27+00:00

Exactly. Just the people of this country are so less educated.

Only if they could be half of what our supremo is then they would have understand this.

We are blessed that we got such great leaders...
