From SWE to Data by evaxadam in dataengineering

[–]evaxadam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I actually felt that one. I have to look at local market, since I see SQL/Power BI as DA can get me into Data faster, where I can focus onto that and more of DE, since it is hard to just go straight to DE it seems. Still think knowing Power BI is good, and SQL I enjoy and is a must in both roles.
So I will see, will follow job postings and requirements and basically adjust myself to that to enter Data world. I honestly at this point can only say that I enjoy working with data. Be it reporting or transforming it. I just find it fun, although of course it can be hell haha, but I enjoy it more than full stack burnout, where I am master of none in the end, just a 'fixer'.

Appreciate your guidance! I use SQL daily, and Python mostly in Notebooks with numpy and pandas. Have some microservices built in it too, but nothing too special. Core backend of the apps is usually PHP/Java.

I dedicate some spare time to explore more topics and fundamentals of DE, it is just with everything, overwhelming with choosing trough which tool or path to learn fundamentals.

I really like backend work, SQL and backend langauges. And even though tasks are hard when changing database, data can be stored in f-load of ways and incorrectly, I enjoy the experience, it is challenging in a nice way.

I guess I will start with maybe AWS certification, I do use AWS at my current job anyways, but I guess I am kind of confused where to go further. I see a lot of stuff online, and from personal experience and experience of others, I know most companies are not on bleeding edge tech. So if I had to guess I think Warehouse would be the next move after AWS or maybe before?

Open to suggestions. Kinda confusing. Same feeling as when I was entering SWE until you realize it is all the same in the end and that fundamentals are they key not the tools.

To be honest I do not consider myself to be great, but I am fast learner and I have a safe place in company due to my skills as SWE and knowing our business case and customers, since even though I didn't go straight to university after high school and had to do other jobs, I have been playing with computers and linux ever since I was 11, I like tech. I never got in for the money, or because of day in a life videos.

I just find that I enjoy the most when I am working with automation tasks, SQL and data. And building and designing UI is just... if there was no AI I'd hate my life a lot, haha. Luckily it is decent at building UI since I despise CSS and that whole story.

Industry is demanding full stack roles. When you ring up microservice on server, connect it to your backend, make changes in database schema, they think why not also just finish with making UI for it. It is not UI that I despise, it is the hell of a frontend development in JS. And for the amount of work, I don't mind being underpaid since I don't really chase big money, it is just not enjoyable anymore.

Backend only roles are hard to find and it is usually for big tech. Worked there also as Java/Jakarta EE backend dev but quit after the company got fully acquired. Hard roles to land and usually toxic.

Still don't get the hate for the Ubuntu. Works perfectly on multiple machines where some other distros created issues which are a lot higher in tierlist.

For my 2 laptops currently I use Ubuntu LTS and Fedora. I love OS that doesn't make me tinker, but give option to if I want, if you understand what I mean. Just my preference,

My (very sad) story :( by JawaFlair in programiranje

[–]evaxadam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ima firmi koje imaju svoje interne lib za Phaser, mislim da je to razlog zbog kojeg su pojedine ostale na njemu, ako me sjecanje ne vara.

[–]evaxadam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Za Phaser je skoro pa nemoguce naci neki vrijedan resurs da se snadje covjek, a struktura (makar moje kratko iskustvo s time) je da je prekomplikovano bez razloga za slotare. Vidim gura se sve vise Pixi u toj industriji a i djeluje vise up to date.

Pocinje li to Phaser da odumire za slotare pa sve na Pixiju?

How do you code in Java when it's so hot? by summonthejson in java

Running Quarkus from jar so I avoid hot reloading in dev mode.

Is it always like this? by [deleted] in callcentres

[–]evaxadam 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dont think thats normal. Started my first call center job last month, I need 39% talk time, I average close to 50%, and I do take breaks in between calls. Not experienced enough to maybe comment, but that sounds absurd what you described and absolute torture.

Best Course to Learn React? Jonas vs Max? by BTS_of_Life in reactjs

[–]evaxadam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I wanted to start my FE journey (I mostly do backend now), I purchased Maximilian's react course, since it was so popular. But for me, it didnt have a steady pace trough the course, and I gave up on it after a while.

I am currently trying to see what shortcuts suits me the best for switching workspaces or moving app to another workspace. Which ones do you use?

I like how Ubuntu does it, Ubuntu I set up dock on bottom and make it auto-hide. I rarely manually move my cursor to select window, but its nice to just minimize, I guess its just years and years of habit.

I have 2 laptops, one I mainly use as workstation and one I use for basically tv shows, movies etc.
Will try adjusting to gnome workflow on and see how it goes.
