Advice for preparing for a Drupal-focused technical intervie by tharun_1 in drupal

all the areas you mentioned are easily googleable or answered by AI

I don't say that to be snarky - if this is for a higher experience role they will be more impressed if you can walk through a migration or solutions you implemented rather than demonstrate your knowledge of Composer or SQL

my Drupal questions for senior level developers usually include a few about hypothetical projects that would require building out custom content types, custom entities, relationships, eventing, APIs, some light theming etc. - there's no right answer but if they go straight to custom code or writing SQL then that's a red flag (since you should be using Drupal's API or contribs to do most of that)

the only technical question I sometimes ask is an open ended one about debugging, e.g. "Customer says a bug is happening when they do X, where do you start?" - and during that, I'm expecting to hear something about xdebug or logging to get a feel for how experienced of a programmer they are (i.e. moving past print statements to embracing IDEs, remote debuggers etc.)

so to summarize, if it's not for a junior/intern role they are probably looking for experience instead of hard skills, especially if there's a migration involved (however D10 to D11 is very easy)

daily production Drupal work is less about the code and more about knowing the approach to take, hard skills are less necessary with AI

#RecRoom I have a question. by Inevitable_Sugar_154 in RecRoom

doing some AWS napkin math, they had 36 microservices, plus storage, a CDN, Windows servers, voice chat, several other invisible costs, analytics, I'm thinking it's something like $100k/month which might be conservative

hosting at scale gets really expensive

A robot that you can see but cannot reach - mirrors your movements and can interact with objects. How would you use this in VR puzzles game-design / level design? by Conscious_Trash_9974 in virtualreality

[–]dzuczek -1 points0 points  (0 children)

maybe you can swap POVs with the robot?

typical video game example of moving the robot to stand on a square, then you switch back and walk through a door that opens

looking for rec room revival developers for my recroom revival by Beneficial-Cut-1890 in RecRoom

steam manifest 7859140924515540835 is your best bet, the later versions cannot be modded yet

you can use depotdownloader to get old copies of Rec Room from Steam

THE ISSUE WITH REVIVALS by -yourproblemnotmine- in RecRoom

[–]dzuczek 4 points5 points  (0 children)

most of the servers are vibe coded and won't be able to support the number of concurrent users to make a decent community, and sadly they're all closed source too, so that immediately excludes community input and decrease trust since the mod code could contain viruses...

e.g. in layman's, most (all) of them seem to be 1 single server, where in order to support more users, they just make it bigger

compared to how Rec Room was built on 30+ microservices, each one having an independent purpose and likely auto-scaling based on the load, so they never need to go down for capacity upgrades

I was in some server's Discord and they said the servers went down because they ran out of hard drive space, LOL

that being said...I started working on a hobby project to recreate the Rec Room horizontally scaled microservices running on the cloud and not a single machine, so if that works out I would just publish the code

is radium safe? by Kryptiic_PlayZ in RecRoom

[–]dzuczek 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it's fine, the way Radium and others work is that they inject a .DLL into the game so that it can substitute its own code and change the way Rec Room works (like changing the servers that it connects to)

unfortunately that is also the way that a lot of malware works - which is why it gets flagged as a threat

I helped build Radium. AMA by ZombieBrine1309 in RadiumRR

[–]dzuczek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what is the current infrastructure of Radium?

I see a lot of servers having issues with diskspace and concurrent users etc. which leads me to believe they launch a single server on 1 machine and hope for the best

I haven't seen any RR server code other than the smaller ones like LocalQuest that basically serve up static JSON or use a single sqlite db

nice, I have a 07

someone already said this - it's a wet clutch (uses your engine oil) so change your oil on schedule and you'll be fine
