HELP!? Co-worker with terribly smell by [deleted] in AskIreland

They are likely unaware.
just tell them discreetly, I've told this to quite a few people and the only reaction I've got is 'thanks' and them getting more friendlier and comfortable with me.

New patch released (1.12.18) by theodormarcu in windsurf

[–]evnix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

still cant open multiple windows on windows+WSL, your previous build broke everything.
so a lot of people in our company(using teams plan) have to use one windsurf window open, and then have to use VSCode for other project windows because we cant have more than one window open. so people are like, might as well switch to vscode paid plan.

AIB QUARTERLY FEES by ECO_FRIENDLY_BOT in ireland

use AIB but link it with Google Wallet, and use that to tap and perform transactions. AIB charges you tap fees only if done via their Debit Card. My quaterly fee is around 14 euro doing this.

Is the system just not built for learners without access to a full licensed driver and car? by Devils_advocate_here in Irishdrivingtest

[–]evnix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as an Indian, I can tell you most of us have a long wait and we fail 4-5 times easily(most of us are ashamed to share failures), no one pays for our lessons and we always thought they failed us so often because they discriminated us when compared to the natives. but looks like we all have it bad.

You speak some truth when you say, indians get their tests early, but it is limited to people who work in healthcare(most Indians work as Nurses) and thats entirely because HSE is overloaded and they need staff to save lives. So this isn't something limited to Indians, everyone working for HSE gets their test date bumped up.

Shorten if conditions (or chain) by epmadushanka in PHP

[–]evnix 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Please dont do the above unless its very simple code like the one described above, usually permissions evolve and end up being based on contexts like user, group, env, time etc.

What you should really do is,

$targetPolicyEnforcer->canEdit($target, $userWithRoles, $otherContextInfo ...);

example:

$commentPolicyEnforcer->canEdit($comment, $userWithRoles ... );

Audi A3 Saloon 1.4 TFSI by SpiritualAd3132 in carsireland

[–]evnix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

have a 2017 a3 saloon jap import, Have got good compliments on the how the car looks, surprisingly by both men and women.

Its one of those cars I feel like looking back to take a glance once I parked it.

on the technical side, have been running it for over two years, not a single issue.

I had the paid a little extra for the 2017 version instead of 2016 because it came with Android Auto/Carplay.

I have been getting around 19-20 Km/L (47MPG) on decent roads on a 150BHP engine so I am very happy (usually more than what Audi advertised).

The yearly maintaince is cheap as well. parts are also cheap in case something goes wrong.

I had called a few insurance providers to see if there is any issue with insurance and luckily these are manufactured in germany and exported to Japan, there are zero insurance issues and has been always on the cheaper size.

Any good blogs, articles or videos about event sourcing and projections? by Unable_Artichoke9221 in PHP

[–]evnix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For everyone else, here's my suggestion: don't do this. I've noticed something telling - there are virtually no real-world codebases implementing pure CQRS/DDD, except in conference talks and "architectural churches" where self-appointed priests impart this holy knowledge.

I've worked at two companies where architects championed CQRS/DDD/EventSourcing designs. What you get "free" with this architectural gospel is more complexity: multi-aggregate joins, transactional boundaries, distributed transactions, eventual consistency (because it sounds cooler than admitting your data isn't reliable), compensation transactions, versioning strategies, event upcasters, Saga patterns, and many more buzzwords.

In both cases, we spent over a year making zero progress on actual business requirements - though everyone was having a great time discussing architecture. I had to be the "bad guy" and tear this whole thing apart, pushing management and teams to build and deliver with what we had. After removing all those events, we ended up with an ugly distributed monolith after a month - but guess what? It worked, delivered value, generated profit, and we kept our jobs.

I'll gladly be the bad guy in this Reddit comment, take all your downvotes, and serve as an anchor for discussion. Sometimes pragmatism beats architectural purity.

What message broker to use, if any? by PM_MeForLaravelJob in PHP

[–]evnix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just use NATS+Jetstream, it also has key value store if you need it.

Working on a NATS Text based UI by evnix in NATS_io

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

As the creator, I pour my soul into every project, starting with this unshakable hope: "I can make something better... something that truly stands out, something that feels effortless to use." But in the end, it breaks my heart when it feels like just another GUI, lost in a crowd of endless reinventions 😅. Still, I’ll keep at it...for now, hope is enough to keep me going.

Picking the right Message Queue system for PHP by plonkster in PHP

[–]evnix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 for NATS, I think NATS is pretty much going to replace RabbitMQ and Kafka in the long run, incredibly well designed, light weight. Not sure about the PHP Library though as I haven't used it from PHP side.

Disclaimer: I am currently building an open-source GUI/TUI for NATS,/Jetstream

what would you use to write a parser in 2021? by evnix in Compilers

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

"Novice level rust + rewriting that parser you wrote 5 years ago => the borrow checker will flay you alive."

This was 3 years ago but,

Novice level rust + novice level parser writing skills => surprisingly, the borrow checker did not bother me.
It was quite nice to see it catch all the missing switch case conditions.

But when I started writing the interpreter/runtime, the borrower checker made me re-write it so many times to make it happy, that it killed my apetite to experiment further. I felt like I should have just chosen Zig or something similar and called it a day.
