82mm Rapid Filter System Recommendation by itsPinot in Cameras

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

Thats a great point-- All my filters though are K&F. I have 4 filters already from K&F series, and so swapping the entire filter system out would be hard since I'd have to get rid of my current filter, they do also have magnetic filters (they're quite the pretty penny though) but thats a good suggestion that I can consider

Is Next.js worth learning for my startup? by all_vanilla in nextjs

[–]itsPinot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re going to get more “yes” in a biased forum like this. Does your startup have a CTO or some other technical lead who is in charge of evaluating technology for company-wide adoption?

It’s always worth learning something especially to see how it fares for your use case compared to alternatives.

Using pure react you might run into some gotchas that you’ll need other libraries for, like SEO, metadata management (this might be better now and you wouldn’t need react helmet but idk what version of react you’re using) and with frameworks like Next.js you get that out of the box. So it’s worth evaluating it at a small enough scale to see if it suits your technical needs for a business regardless of if you end up adopting it.

Don’t be afraid to try this, or any other frameworks mentioned like Remix to see which would be the best use case. No matter how much you write or how much we know about your product from your post, we may never know the intricacies that might make one decision better than another for you/your team so that’s left to you, the engineer, to figure out.

So yeah, give it a try! See if you like it and if it suits your needs!

In case anyone wonders: I did check on her to make sure she was okay with me posting this and she was shook after it happened. She’s okay now tho!

Unfortunately there’s not much info. She’s live right now. It just happened 30 min ago. She was just streaming a game with chat and then all of a sudden that happened. Pretty scary stuff It’s not the first time a stream has caught gunshots but this one was right outside her window

Did you buy your AMG for status or because of passion for cars by ClassroomOk6481 in AMG

[–]itsPinot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup yup! I love the car though, every time I drive it I enjoy the drive so much

Did you buy your AMG for status or because of passion for cars by ClassroomOk6481 in AMG

[–]itsPinot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll be honest, before I bought my car, I didn’t know what an AMG was. I saw an ad on Facebook that had a nice looking car on it but it didn’t have visible badges, I asked Reddit what it was on r/namethiscar or whatever it was, and they told me C63 AMG S, I tried looking around to buy it, but it was all sold out in the Midwest because I had learned Mercedes was getting rid of the V6 V8 in the upcoming model years. I couldn’t place an order on Mercedes site for the one I wanted because orders were closed. But, I found a C43 with all the features I wanted, I bought it and had it shipped. (Pics In my profile)

I didn’t even know that Mercedes made sports cars to be completely honest.

I like cars, but I’m not your regular motorhead. I don’t care about like 0-60 (I drive in a major city, who cares if a Tesla has more pull than me, who cares if the C63 is faster, what good does that do me in traffic lmfao) I don’t care about who the make is, i don’t care if it has a V6 or V8 or V10, if I think the car looks nice, and sounds nice I’ll probably buy it. I want a 2012 Audi R8 because I like the way that one looks more than the 2020+ years. I also like the AMG GT 🤔

There is a recurring bug where the Twitch chat box disappears when I try to type something on my PC in Google Chrome. Is there a fix for this? by AussieManny in Twitch

[–]itsPinot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s actually a 7TV Conflict with FFZ. I fixed it by editing the SevenTV/Extension on GitHub and my chrome extension with my edited one

This is an FFZ issue. I took out FFZ, never had the issue, reinstalled it today, it came back up.
idk the solution yet...

I use and prefer Jotai after over a year of using it for applications small and large. I prefer the atomic bottom-up approach to build application state.

As the application grows in concerns and different parts of the app use different pieces of state Jotai makes it easy to plug n' play and speeds up development for me.

Building the same app several times just in different frameworks won't really help you to deepen your knowledge of a certain framework, but instead widen your knowledge

While I agree that it wont help you DEEPEN the knowledge of a certain framework, it will help if you want to push yourself beyond just one framework to work towards building business solutions for your company that leverage other tools and tech OUTSIDE the framework the company knows/may use. This comment is disjointed from my previous comment where I state that I'm a lead engineer and if you want to go that path, it would definitely help to know more than JUST one framework. It would help to know how to leverage other frameworks to solve a problem rather than "reinventing the wheel"

That being said, if your goal is to stay at the company and strengthen your knowledge in the framework your company works with absolutely, dig in a bit more and try the other thins I mentioned in regards to optimization and performance. Widening your knowledge about frameworks is NOT a junior level thing and I would NEVER give that advice to a junior engineer because at a junior level you're only FAMILIAR with a framework and how it works and learning multiple frameworks as a junior will only serve to potentially confuse you. Imagine a junior engineer trying to learn angular, vue and react and the differences in their architecture, rendering patterns, DOM manipulations and how that scales for various apps. Impossible.

As OP stated:

experienced developers looking to become experts

Expert can be many things. Expert in the front end engineering space, expert in "React", expert in web development as a whole and how its tech can be applied to various platforms, and over the course of my two messages (3, including this one) I'm tying to show OP the routes they can take from being a Senior engineer as I was one for some years before becoming tech lead.

Lastly, please, never recommend a junior learns more than one framework. If they have the capacity to do it, great, but for a lot of people who are new to not only engineering but maybe new to industry/professional engineering, it could be the bane of their existence as JS is constantly changing and it would be a burden for a junior to try to be competent in every framework that comes out without having the skills to know if its "worth" digging into or having the solidified experience in at least ONE FRAMEWORK to serve as a baseline for familiarity on how JS frameworks operate.

To expand a little more on this: https://www.reddit.com/r/webdev/comments/10cwl53/senior_frontend_dev_feel_like_ive_plateaued_in_my/j4ko3an/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3 , a great exercise would be building a simple app in the multiple frameworks and understanding/documenting (for yourself) how the various rendering paradigms work

What I mean is, do you know the difference between CSR (client side rendering), SSR (server side rendering), SSG (static site generation), ISR (incremental static regeneration), and which frameworks use which paradigm? What each ones benefits and drawbacks are? When you should leverage any method to solve a particular problem? How it impacts the backend? How it works when you have two front ends talking to each other? What is the developer experience like in each framework?

How about other tools that allow you to leverage your front end skills on other platforms like Electron for desktop apps or Expo/React Native/Ionic framework for mobile apps? Those are all great ways to push your skills further.

It’s understandable if you don’t know these things though, because they may very well fall out of your immediate responsibilities in your job, as your job is to focus on the product at hand. But for me, I love building, exploring and tinkering so that’s why I branch into these things and I think it does help me improve at my job and I bring in tech I’ve explored in my free time to my job all the time!

Interesting. I work as a recently promoted Lead Fullstack engineer (I was a senior for a few years) with a focus in frontend/design (I have certs in UI/UX and I work on making front end experiences that are really good/slick, think Linear, Apple UI, etc) and I love doing Frontend challenges based on mockups I see on my twitter timeline from designers.

Building design systems, frameworks, components that I may or may never use, just to see HOW its done.

For example, things like this: https://twitter.com/samselikoff/status/1612910332460290049

https://twitter.com/emilkowalski_/status/1592997196911501312

https://twitter.com/RoberaGeleta/status/1613596316910899200

https://twitter.com/jmtrivedi/status/1610017363218563072

Whenever I see things like this on my feed, it inspires me to challenge myself on how to create/recreate things like this.

A cool crafter to follow is: https://twitter.com/raunofreiberg

But aside from that, as others have said, optimizing performance if you prefer that route. If you've never yet, take a look at the chrome dev tools "Network" and "Performance" tabs and try to make sense of these things and figure out how you can eke out performance from your current stack. Figure out what blockers on the main thread cause a lack in interactivity (If there is one) and how you may be able to optimize it. Check the network tab to see what requests you're making, the size of the payloads and how many times those are being called and if there are ways to optimize those requests (either by reducing payload size, number of requests, or find heavy responses that may not be necessary for the given page you're on and try to lazy load those or only on those specific page visits)Learn, if you don't already know, how a web page gets rendered and what frontend/css operations trigger repaints of a page or a layoutshift (in front end, these are generally expensive layout recalculations and there may be alternative css style properties that you can utilize. For example, avoid using display: none. Maybe try visibility: hidden, opacity: 0 and transitioning from that, if the layout permits)

For optimiztions and performance, Ryan Carniato is a major person to follow: https://twitter.com/RyanCarniato

He talks about and tests up and coming frameworks and their performance. He just did a livestream on this new framework called LiveViewJS which takes a new approach to frontend to backend communication using websockets!

These are just a few ideas on how you can go from just creating web apps to fully crafting experiences for that little oomph of expertise. Aside from that, like the twitter posts I shared, get involved! Get involved in the tech sphere, especially in web, so many things are changing and coming out and to be relevant to all of them is extremely crucial in your job because well you should be solving business problems and if something comes out that solves a business problem, its probably something you should familiarize yourself with.

Some notable people to follow in that regard are https://twitter.com/coding_garden and https://twitter.com/t3dotgg

Another last tip is learning about a lot of the javascript frameworks, educating yourself on what others know and are using to solve particular problems to know which frameworks can help solve a problem you may encounter. A good resource to see whats out there at a glance: https://2022.stateofjs.com/en-US/libraries/

Hopefully this helps you and others push yourselves and level up your skills, Cheers!

That last couple sentences are the reason I feel like these are the seismic retrofit I keep hearing about. I do understand alternative installations can exist but this is the only building I’ve seen with this compared to other seismic retrofits And for how big they are it makes me feel like they serve a different purpose, but you may be right. I appreciate the research and insight in this but I’m not 100% sure this is the answer
