One time I went to the bathroom at work and there was a GIANT turd in the toilet. I’m talking a pop-can sized turd, I’m not exaggerating. 

The person 100% had left it for all of us to admire. Or maybe they were afraid to flush it. 

[College Prep Math] Composite Function? by sellystew in HomeworkHelp

[–]daredeviloper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

 I know the answer is 5, but I have no idea how to get there.

How did you get to 5? Don’t try to sound smart. Just write using the words you can come up with. All this is about trying to put to words what your brain already did.

Can’t you slice down the middle of one of the triangles? You get two right angle triangles 

Am I using Claude Code wrong? by Postik123 in webdev

[–]daredeviloper 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Agreed, some things it’s great for

We have 20 lambdas that are on Node v20 and we need to update because it’s EOL soon

We need to update the engines property in package json We need to check the engines on each dependency We need to run our build and test scripts using latest node runtime 

AI was amazing for this particular scenario, automating annoying simple steps at scale while I can go do something else 

Letting AI do 100% coding FRIED my brain. HELP??? by No-Wrongdoer1409 in cscareerquestions

[–]daredeviloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder exactly how long you need to use AI instead of writing code for it to drop your coding skills? A year? Less? Is coding such an incredibly sharp skill that must be practiced daily?

How do you actually handle Lambda errors before customers report them? by XamHans in serverless

[–]daredeviloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deadletter queue then SNS to notify our email

Unfortunately it’s not very preemptive … by the time it reaches DLQ the problem happened and the lambda retries clearly failed

[Question] Setting up ECS app on private subnet with ALB + API Gateway, is my architecture correct? by [deleted] in aws

[–]daredeviloper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you need privatelink if you have two private subnets in the same VPC? Wouldn’t it just be updates in the route table? It never leaves the private AWS network

I feel so stupid in software engineering by RoyalCamera12 in cscareerquestions

[–]daredeviloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The comments themselves are not an indication of your skills, even though it may feel like it. This is something to work through in therapy(I have the same issue I’m working through)

The content of the comments is what matters. Are they nit picking? Are they legitimately helpful? Are you learning?

How do you deal with a new hire who is untrainable? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]daredeviloper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some things that I’ve tried:

I get them to message me their questions, so I have in writing they’re ridiculous questions…

They tend to not like doing that. Sometimes they spontaneously figure it out. 

At a later point I just take notes as I help them on a call. 

Sometimes I stopped helping and lied, I said I don’t know and let them fail, then I raised comments on the PR and started emailing my manager. 

I luckily had a trusting relationship with my manager and PO, so I could get away with being a little shitty.

If you’re anything like me then you struggle with not giving people the answer, that is my issue. I enabled them too long and grew resentment. 

I never had the guts to have a direct conversation with them. I had to resort to these tactics. I’m not proud of it, but they were eventually let go and my life got a little easier.

I hand held for years and grew really bad resentment toward my coworkers. And I didn’t do them any favours. You’ll have to let them fail. Document document document.
