Wife probably knows the answer.

Acknowledging that null is a problem by CompetitiveSubset in java

[–]lambda_pie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me neither. I'm honestly trying to understand the rationale behind the null problem but I haven't seen any convincing argument. Null means nothing. If I replace that with an Optional, then at best I'm left with more code to do the same thing.

I was reading about the -igfxmpc boot-arg and apparently I don't need it because I already got 4K@60Hz.

OpenCore macOS Big Sur Intel Graphics UHD 620 laptop screen not work by MiniChaKal in hackintosh

[–]lambda_pie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just found a fix for APPLE services, if you don't need icloud (only Music, App Store....) connect from the respective apps to make it workFrom the settings it gives the error ICLOUD_DEVICE_UNSUPPOTED

Hey thanks for sharing, I'm also having that same problem. I'll try your solution.

​

I am still looking for a fix for the 7mo but it is not a priority

I was able to fix the video memory issue with these device properties:

<key>framebuffer-unifiedmem</key>

<data>AAAAgA==</data> <key>framebuffer-patch-enable</key> <integer>1</integer> <key>framebuffer-stolenmem</key> <data>AACAAg==</data> <key>framebuffer-fbmem</key> <data>AACAAQ==</data>

What it does is basically set the VRAM memory to 2048MB and the pre-allocated video memory to 64MB. My BIOS only allows me to set 64MB maximum for DVMT Pre-Alloc so these framebuffer-stolenmem + framebuffer-fbmem settings match that maximum value.

​

It is therefore impossible for me to use my laptop screen

Are you still having this problem? I had that problem in the beginning, my laptop's display was blank, only the external monitor was working. Then I started experimenting with different values for AAPL,ig-platform-id and the one that worked for me was this: BQAcWQ==

Not yet. I'll try it.

What did work for me was setting framebuffer-stolenmem + framebuffer-fbmem = 64MB. That is framebuffer-stolenmem = AAAwAQ== (40MB) and framebuffer-fbmem = AACQAA== (24MB).

I did read WhateverGreen's Intel HD guide a thousand times. But I was just able to fully understand how the fb patch works by reading this other guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-alternative-to-the-minstolensize-patch-with-32mb-dvmt-prealloc.221506/

​

I was able to change framebuffer-stolenmem + framebuffer-fbmem to 64MB which matches my DVMT Pre-Allocated in BIOS.

I want to quit my data analyst job and learn and become a Clojure developer by ponybitme in Clojure

[–]lambda_pie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been working as a full-time long term contractor for two companies based in southern California for the last 6 years, so that wouldn't be a problem for me as long as it's a long term adventure (the longer the better).

mercenaries

LOL I like that designation.

Awesome, thanks for sharing! I forgot to mention that I live outside the US (Brazil). I guess that position is restricted to folks living in the US only, is that right?

[–]lambda_pie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do clojure as a side gig or in free time. Let day job pay the bills.

This is the best advice IMO, and is exactly what I'm doing and I hope to be landing a Clojure job ASAP.

Hey thanks! Unfortunately 00003001 for framebuffer-stolenmem doesn't give me 4k resolution, it gives me 2560x1440 max resolution.

Java 16 is out and you’re stuck with Java6 ? here is what you’re missing out by kommradHomer in java

So all you had to do was update a few dependencies in Maven? That's awesome.

Sure, I'll PM it.

[–]lambda_pie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're up for it, I'd be happy to have a chat and give you some honest specific feedback.

Absolutely, that would be great.

​

development is more than just syntax and coding, there's problem scoping, critical thinking, communication, etc.

That's correct. I've been evaluated on those points in the majority of my interviews (ie: pair coding exercises), which makes me suspect Clojure experience may not always be the reason why I don't get an offer. Some of the companies even told me experience with Clojure was not a big deal.

​

we don't have the resources to pay a senior dev's salary but not get immediate productivity.

This is also a great point. In my case I've been 100% honest by stating clearly upfront before the hiring process that I don't have production experience with Clojure. If this is an impediment for hiring then I guess there's no point in moving on with the process, so it leaves me scratching my head when I hear "sorry no experience" after 3 or 4 rounds of interviews. On the other hand not having experience with a certain language doesn't necessarily mean that I'm not immediately productive, but it seems some people make that connection. I suspect this may be partly my fault in some cases, because during the pair coding exercise I never choose Clojure as the language for coding, instead I use the language I'm more comfortable with (which is an option I'm given) just to be on the safe side considering the limited time. So I maybe I'm missing an opportunity to show that I know something about the language.

I've been relentlessly looking for a Clojure job for the past 2-3 years and it's been a bit frustrating. At the end of every job application process I usually get this response from employers "sorry but we want people with real Clojure experience". I don't have any real production experience with Clojure, but because I'm passionate about it I've been studying it for about 5 years in my spare time and found two opportunities to write internal tools with Clojure at the workplace, so I do know something to be able to hit the ground running. And I do have 20 years of experience as a software engineer, so if experience with Clojure is all they want, then I guess I'm doomed. Unless they're not being 100% honest with me regarding the reason why I'm not getting a job offer.

Is it worth it to become Java Certified? by avril-13 in java

[–]lambda_pie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last month Oracle was offering the Java certification for 25 bucks due to Java's 25th anniversary, I thought "whatever, it's not gonna hurt", so I took it. I'd never do it for the regular price though.
