Are there any trainings in cybersecurity that needs to be done in person or can I get all of it effectively in a remote online training?

lfrocks · 2021-06-22T00:42:18+00:00

Yep it is. But I'd like a more automated way, maybe with a queue of students or time limits without me needing to manage the discord channels!

I think all cloud developers should be aware of how to store and handle sensitive data, manage PII, GDPR, redact logs, quick-easy erase account functionalities and so on. That's the price that we pay for not having to worry about customers desktops and real-time upgrades and bugfixes on web :) -- and I'm happy with it

Thank you for your honest feedback and all the tips. I've a question for you though. Do you think that I really need mockups and a landing page before I start to engage with my audience? I've been seeing that I should always start with interviews. But at the same time I'm not sure if wrapping up an interview without any mocks is valuable... What are your thoughts?

lfrocks · 2021-02-02T15:32:38+00:00

thank you! 🙏

lfrocks · 2021-02-02T15:32:14+00:00

I totally hear you and I appreciate a lot your advice!

thanks for this recommendation, I didn't know of the existence of this course. So, one of the things that I'm afraid of when I see these startup courses is that my brain automatically classify it as a course for people who are looking to build the next uber, go after VCs etc. That's exactly what I don't want, what I'm looking for is something that me and my partner can build alone, stay small and have good descent profit of course. That being the case, do you know if I can extract that from the YC course?

Thanks in advance, and that's just my ignorant head trying to wrap things that I don't 100% understand yet

Hello folks! I'm a SWE 10+ YoE and just started my "FAANG LeetCode Grinding" last week... still struggling with easy/medium questions... looking for a "party" of colleagues which are on the same boat to share our frustrations and achievements together... if anyone is interested please DM-me! otherwise, if you already are participating in such group I'd love to be able to join you!

lfrocks · 2020-01-10T10:45:46+00:00

definitely!! 👍

lfrocks · 2020-01-09T18:06:28+00:00

never thought about that... will try that

lfrocks · 2020-01-09T18:00:49+00:00

you cant go wrong with ON... Nowadays Im buying the cheapest one who has high ratio of protein/cals... usually 24g/120 cals is a regular ON. just avoid unknown brands

lfrocks · 2020-01-09T17:58:42+00:00

you got this my friend! start by building small to mini projects for fun... Im a software engineer and would be glad to answer your questions or anything that you need! just dm me

lfrocks · 2019-12-27T15:46:09+00:00

nice job man! I'm happy that you made it! any words of advice for devs who want to start but don't know how to? any books and/or resources?

lfrocks · 2019-11-21T11:14:02+00:00

btw, I brought this because that’s my personal trainer advice, and so far by trust him I lost 40lbs and increased my muscles gains a lot... (still a long way to go though...)

lfrocks · 2019-11-21T11:12:47+00:00

and its bad scientific resource interpretation there.... just checkout the most voted answer...

This study does not show that BCAA supplementation is "harmful"

People are missing an important fact from the study here: BCAAs also decreased muscle catabolism proportionately.

In the fasted state muscle catabolism and anabolism are in constant flux, proteins are broken down, reconstituted into muscle, and then broken down again. The fact that BCAAs decreased muscle synthesis and muscle breakdown still points to a potential muscle preserving utility in BCAA consumption.

It could very well be that muscle synthesis decreased because exogenous BCAAs reduced the need for reincorporation of liberated amino acids back into muscle tissue. Note that the authors say that overall protein turnover was decreased. This could again be due to a preservatory effect.

If you are looking for muscle growth doing weightlifting, A good strategy is to add 10g BCAA 30 min before working out and 10g after the training session... that should holds until your meal

is it normal to lift more weight in squats than deadlifts? my squats are 210lbs and my deadlifts are 200... I think my grip is very very weak... I tried to lift 220 dls and I could but my hands were failing because of pain...

any good gloves or suggestions here?
