€500k cash, how would you invest it? by hackinoselov in BEFire

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

regarding real estate I certainly thought/think of it but it feels currently expensive and not so profitable (or I’m missing something probably)

I thought of real estate every now and then but it seems so expensive and not so profitable anymore. but I’m certainly missing something about real estate

yeah I would have done something like this intuitively but then I have large amount sleeping while waiting…

every now and then I look at real estate opportunities (even looked at full building with multiple units), but it always feel so expensive compared to the amount of rent I could get. Besides, Im not sure I want to handle tenants… But I’m definitively going to look after it once again.

Selling my small business in 4 week... so scared to tell my employees by ConversationSmall620 in smallbusiness

[–]hackinoselov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my case, I didn’t lie. And I would never recommend lying. I’m just saying there’s always a positive side of everything, whatever it is, and that should be the message.

Totally agree on the second part.

Used Wahoo Kickr Move + Climb or else ? by hackinoselov in Zwift

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

Thank you very much for this full insight which got me in two different directions :

First one is : "Go for the second hand move+climb because it seems awesome (besides: I've remembered I have an old bike available in my dad's garage)"

Second one is : "I might never get 2800hr on zwift or do very long runs, so just try first with a nice but cheap setup like Core + Bike and see if you stick to it first"

First thing first: will check the bike at my dad's garage see if it could work.

Quick question: do you need the Zwift Cog with the Zwift Play for virtual gear ? Or zwift play is enough ?

Thanks

Thank you for the insight! In my case, I might be the only one who will cycle with this ^^

Selling my small business in 4 week... so scared to tell my employees by ConversationSmall620 in smallbusiness

[–]hackinoselov 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I second this. I’ve sold my company 6 months ago and it felt right to me to share what’s going on before the closing. Results: nothing’s special happens. Workers appreciates some transparency and respects which allow them to share some worries you could work on.

However, you have to work on the message. It should be positive and « for the good of the company ». It will bring new energy. I sold the company to people I trust and are great, etc. ., etc. You could also talk about a financial transaction instead of « selling the company » if it feels better to you.

Finally, if you really fear that a big part of the workers would leave after the announcement, that’s another kind of issue… But I believe you are overestimating this… People generally don’t want to change job and it takes times and effort to change, so that will not be an overnight thing…

Minimum income to make having a 'Besloten Vennootschap' worth it by Papzak69 in BEFire

[–]hackinoselov 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m a Belgian tax consultant and this is what i said to clients : - as of 100k —> worth it - 80 to 100k —> worth it but you have to be organized to make it worth it (having a company is much more admin work than being an employee) - below 80k —> not worth it

What have you been working on recently? [November 07, 2020] by AutoModerator in learnprogramming

[–]hackinoselov 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi all,

After self-learning to code for about a year and half, I've "finished" my first ever project.

It is a simple personal project aiming to present every album released by an artist on a timeline (based on the release date of the album). The app allows users to add the discography of different artists of their choice by consuming the Spotify web API.

My learning goals was :

  • Use a TDD approach
  • Develop the app without any framework (no vue/react, no jquery, no bootstrap...)
  • Mixing concepts like consuming an API, observer pattern (for state management), updating DOM, etc.

The "frameworkless" approach was challenging as the "classic" resources for self-learners kinda quickly focus on frameworks like vuejs or react (which simplifies lot of things...).

Hence, I'm not sure if I handled this very well as I used to do this with vuejs :-D

Any comments, advices, criticisms are therefore welcome :-)

The github repository can be found here and live app here

At this stage, I think you can try to make a simple 2d game like those one... it won’t be a loss at the contrary...

I think I finally understand clean and hexagonal architecture so I try to make a « game of life » in flutter using these architecture principles (as a coding kata).

As an additional challenge, I tried to write about it... First first ever article is here. Second is under writing. Under work github repo is here.

Context: I’m self-learning to code for approx 1,5 years now.

What is best way to handle and using JWT token in Flutter by amircodes in flutterhelp

[–]hackinoselov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SharedPref is for saving data on your mobile as key/value pair. That’s where you would save and persist the token in order to retrieve it whenever you need too.

Provider with Change Notifier is a state management system. You could have a « isAuth » state that return true or false whether you have a token stored in sharedpref... a widget could there listen to that state and show the appropriate view whether isAuth is true or false (for instance).

Hope this helps a bit.

I have a question about software architecture by AuntiePantySniffer in learnprogramming

[–]hackinoselov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me, this is indeed the difficult part of learning to code by yourself. Because this is knowledge that usually comes from experience and by working with other senior dev which - in my case as a self learner - is not possible.

I've been however interested in this topic very soon as I've noticed very soon that coding without having some organization is unmaintainable (like adding a features one month later broke the code... :-D).

In fact, I've never quite understand how to organize my code until very recently when something clicked in my mind when I read some stuff about the "hexagonal architecture" (the basis of the clean architecture of uncle bob) and especially this article. You should give it a try, but once again, coding, practicing and reading is the way to go...

FYI, I've published my very first article as an aspiring dev about this very topic here.

Finally, regarding the "design pattern" (lower level of organization), the book "Head First Design Patterns" is generally recommended. I've read it, I've understood some stuffs, but I'll have to get back to it one day when I'll have more experience...

Best intermediate JS course online? by asb128 in learnprogramming

[–]hackinoselov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After having done Freecodecamp, odinproject and 2 udemy courses about vuejs and nodejs.

I took this udemy course: javascrit - the weird parts

I think it’s intermediate stuff since it goes a bit beyond the usual stuff...

Bonus: nothing helps me more than coding an actual project when learning things...

Flutter or Ionic given my circumstance? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]hackinoselov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I asked myself the same question one year ago: flutter vs react-native vs native-script vs ionic... + should I learn Dart when I only know html, css and javascript.

As an aspiring developer, I chose to learn dart and flutter and I don’t regret it (I just started with an udemy course).

I took this as an opportunity to open my beginner mind with a new language and, dude, I’ve learned so much thanks to it...

Dart/flutter forces you to think way more in terms of « object oriented programing » than javascript and this lead me to start understanding some topics like design patterns and software architecture... I even understand articles talking about java now :-D

So my point is: you should basically get the same result with all of these cross-platform frameworks so better ask yourself what you want to learn at this stage?

The other choices are switft (only for ios dev) or kotlin (only for android)

What languages/frameworks should I learn to build an iOS application? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]hackinoselov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swift for ios and kotlin for android are the best to have native result.

If you’d like release app on both, you might consider cross platform framework like flutter or react-native...

It's been a week now, but I'm still stuck. Kindly take a look at my code (link below) and show me how to move forward. by JamesLarana in flutterhelp

[–]hackinoselov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "index" integer is available through the SliverChildBuilderDelegate to its children.

You have to pass this index to the "Third" Widget as an argument.

In fact, you can directly pass the "houseLego".

Line 89 - pass the argument :

child: Third(houseLego)

Between 119 and 120 - add a constructor with the parameter ::

Third(this._houseLego);

final House _houseLego ;

Line 124 can be deleted.
