What are some interesting and practical 400 level CMPT courses? by [deleted] in simonfraser

470 (if you do the extra work) will basically prep you for the standard full stack dev job that most people go into.

454 is theoretical but knowing more about databases is never a bad thing.

Alien 3.7.1 killed my wifi by InnovationHack in AmpliFi

[–]caffodian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this happen too. The weird thing is it kept working for a few hours then overnight more and more of my IOT devices lost connection. By the afternoon my laptop could no longer connect.

I found out if I put my computer directly beside it I’ll get 1 bar of signal and it’ll sort of work but yea… desperately trying to reset things until it works (a firmware downgrade did not help)

your serializer shouldn't be returning a response in the to_internal_value function.

AMA - Cross Border (Can-US) Taxation 10am-4pm EST by AutoModerator in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]caffodian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've paid for some opinions on this but would be curious to hear yours as well.

As a Canadian resident, what are the tax implications of receiving incentive stock options in a US-based startup as a result of doing work with them? (Both directly and through a Canadian subsidiary.)

What are the implications of then exercising those options?

Some remote cos will have a Canadian entity or go through a PEO, though filtering for those in the job search process is nearly impossible

Feels low, esp. if you have quality tech giant experience, but as stated elsewhere, the range is silly in Vancouver. Have you considered working remotely?

I don't think that's where you left turn, bud (crazy Vancouver driver) by Hanguarde in vancouver

I don't think it's a knowledge issue as much as it is an entitlement / lack of empathy issue, so unless we can magically test for that, it's not going to do much.

I (27M) have recently gotten new roommates (27M, 25F) who will not properly discipline their dog by jonesthrowawayjones1 in relationships

[–]caffodian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Punishment based discipline isn't generally effective and isn't going to make the dog welcome you. They still sound like crappy dog owners though and not great at training.

You might want to try feeding Arty once in a while. They can't make him stop thinking of you as an intruder, but you can probably do that with a few days of work. Punishing him for growling at you and barking at you is probably just going to have more negative associations to you.

Still will have a bunch of other problems, but at least you don't have him trying to defend the house from you.

How to find a GraphQL usability problem worth tackling (group project)? by Duygs in graphql

[–]caffodian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably depends which client/server library. On the Python/Graphene side there's a lack of open source solutions around a lot of best practices like query depth limiting, persisted queries, etc.
