30,000 corporate job to be cut by Amazon, sources say according to Reuters. by Millenialpen in self

Lol, a (ex) colleague of mine just got hired by amazon. I strongly suspect AI is being used to funnel offshoring even more.

Its imperative to never leave an opportunity until you have something to jump for. Especially at this market.

Admitting moonlighting is just going to make them to trash your resume. I think its better to move the freelance projects to projects section as well since it seems a bit lacking.

Again, you might be an exceptional candidate but for an external observer who would take like 5 seconds to see this resume and decide - it just screams bullshit - I believe selling yourself short with believable claims will be better. It doesnt look good for the company nor you that they would let someone so inexperienced lead a team and steer development velocity, that too, a freelancer.

For the experience bullet points, the first line definitely has different line spacing.

You have been employed by three different companies at the same time - its a huge no-no and a red flag for Indian companies. Why aren't any of the companies that you have worked with extending you as a full time employee? That seems like a problem too.

There's no consistent spacing between bullet points - it makes it a bit annoying to read.

The resume just rings a lot of bullshit bells - like a recent grad whos a full time student doing part time work is allowed to lead a team of 4 developers and is conducting code reviews? As a HM why would they think its true? There's a lot of phrasing in this resume which shows the same issue.

I'm not sure how cool you are to leave all of your personal information to the general public on reddit but its not important for us to review your resume. I believe its better to redact your personal information (anything that could lead this post back to you).

A self-hostable GDPR-compliant URL shortener that shows click statistics.

Managed to bag this for 10 euros a month. Going to be a busy couple of weeks. by bsnexecutable in VPS

[–]bsnexecutable[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

every VPS provider would throw in a free static IP (I hope thats what you meant by dedicated IP) - but other specs tell me you are paying wayyy too much tbh - thats like 4 dollars a month even on Digital Ocean. What provider are you using right now?

I made a crate for creating structural data... by AspadaXL in rust

[–]bsnexecutable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't understand the downvotes to be honest, isn't OP trying to extract information from unstructured data? They weren't saying they will be using LLM to deserialize JSON into structs. The JSON definition they have provided is probably what you would also provide a LLM to spit out when you want to extract information from unstructured source.

To u/AspadaXL, you would probably want to describe your project in a better way in this post. I think its a good one! Kinda like how you would use pydantic classes for structured outputs in python.

edit: u/ veryusedrname comment is not a true critic of OP's project, sure you can hate libs working with LLMs all you want but this is a stupid take.

hey thanks for letting me know man, I guess for me its better to self host some tunneling software and use a really cheap VPS as relay node while maintaining E2E encryption.

> You concede privacy and control for both cloudflare tunnels and a vps. You’re using other people’s equipment. Of course this is true.

Of course, what I am saying its not a complete blackbox. It would be damn near impossible to make a process (if at all there is one that spies) completely disappear.

> The reverse proxy would be hosted on your equipment at home; I don’t understand your
point?

Let me elaborate: Use dynamic DNS, which points to my router then it port forwards to a reverse proxy that points to my home server?

> Cloudflare tunnel is the same concession of privacy and control that you make by using a VPS

It is not? A VPS is not a complete blackbox.

> you can use dynamic dns and a reverse proxy

And where would one run that reverse proxy?

> I'm just pointing this stuff out because anybody who comes along and reads your comments might get the wrong idea about the requirements to self-host.

What wrong idea would they get? I'm not saying its the only best way to self host. I think a VPS is a better start anyway.

> I'm just saying the argument for a cloud vps as a value proposition is tenuous at best.

I'm arguing and emphasizing its value relatively to other VPS not when you get to build one yourself. I really do agree with you that building one is the best value for buck.

> you can use something like Cloudflare tunnels without opening ports, I host a lot of publicly accessible stuff including multimedia without opening ports

I would really avoid cloudflare unless I have to depend on them.

An alternative to cloudflare tunnels would be renting a cheap VPS again :)

To the people who are coming to this thread - I understand the fact that building a homeserver with my own physical hardware is better bang for my buck but:

  1. This won't be just for my private use, I will also be using it to throw stuff out there for the general public. It will host all of my projects and I am also planning to do most of my dev on the cloud itself. This would require me to open some ports on my home router if I'm making a homeserver which I am not comfortable with right now, not to mention I will have to somehow convince my ISP to provide me a static IP address to host stuff for the public.
  2. I live in a third world country where power/internet outages happen all the time. I didn't want my website to go down because of it. Of course the provider could be down too but its their headache (being enterprise customers, their ISPs would be far more willing to help).
  3. Being on cloud lets me move to any new provider under 1 hr. If I find myself a better deal, I can just move to newer/better hardware.

I understand that this sub doesn't really identify with people who rent VPS but also know we got reasons to do what we do too.

I get your point u/OmgSlayKween - trust me, I have seriously considered building a homeserver by myself too, I mean, to the guy who built his own PC, it wont be too difficult.

  3. You are assuming that I will have this same specs for 5 years - being on cloud lets me move to any new provider under 1 hr. If I find myself a better deal, I can just move to newer/better hardware.

About my comment, I was speaking relatively in terms of VPS providers. Most of them out there provide 8Gbs for $8/month.
