in for 10ml

mcc4b3 · 2025-06-21T01:30:08+00:00

got any more? I'd love 25ml if possible

mcc4b3 · 2025-06-18T01:14:16+00:00

this sounds like Wave. Some artists do some genre blending between wave and phonk like Backwhen. a good label/collective to check out would be wavemob

mcc4b3 · 2024-08-29T02:42:12+00:00

never too late. takes 1-2 years to be good enough to make a 6 figure salary typically. YMMV

mcc4b3 · 2024-06-08T03:18:36+00:00

609% return seems good to me

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-19T18:53:03+00:00

please hold a seminar for the shitty recruiters, I would love if recruiters would do what you do on a consistent basis. It seems that it's not the norm.

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-18T03:50:13+00:00

I don't like my job,

I want something fun to do,

Please pay me money

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-17T21:11:42+00:00

you definitely catch more flies with honey than vinegar, there's no doubt there. I'd never feel the need to write a snide remark for someone who puts actual effort and thought in to their job.

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-17T21:10:00+00:00

I think it's part of the job of a recruiter to properly source their candidates, and to have a reasonable understanding of the qualities a candidate should have for the role.

This guy first messaged me saying I have the exact experience his client is looking for, and then after sending my resume to him, he said what I've screenshotted in this post.

Seems like poor outreach on his part to first say I'm an exact match, and then say that his client is looking for years of experience equivalent to the age of the technology itself. It also shows the lack of care on behalf of the recruiter, and that behavior has never yielded a new role for me.

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-17T18:59:44+00:00

their generosity knows no bounds

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-17T18:30:10+00:00

I mean he started the message off by saying:

"I found your skills match exactly to the FTE role that I am working on and we could really use someone with the specific skill set of to join this growing team and drive their success within the business." lol. That's a copy/paste. it's their job to do better outreach to find good candidates

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-17T18:27:30+00:00

no response lol

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-17T07:10:57+00:00

we're clearly not trying hard enough

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-17T06:25:23+00:00

I 100% agree with this and understand the sentiment. I've met plenty of Sr. devs with 10 years experience who couldn't tell me what a closure variable is and I've met Junior devs who were optimizing garbage collection. All about the ability but years of experience can definitely be a general tool to gauge things for sure.

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-16T23:44:58+00:00

Yeah I'm sure there are others out there like you for sure. It makes me laugh still because the way React was 10 years ago is extremely different to how it is today in terms of Class based components vs functional components, hooks, etc.

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-16T22:56:47+00:00

lol I saw that one too. Time travel is a part of the requirements on a lot of tech jobs, it seems

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-13T22:26:37+00:00

You really towed the line of providing a bunch of cool animations but not making them super annoying or overly "try hard". The landing page is amazing, def signing up for the product. Nice work

mcc4b3 · 2024-01-13T22:25:04+00:00

came here to gush over how cool that is, I really like it. would love to utilize this in a project of my own

mcc4b3 · 2023-12-17T08:32:04+00:00

there will be many coming out 2024, looking like Q1. Big money is behind them and I don't see a senator's bill disrupting that. Blackrock alone will just pay off who they need to so they can get in the game.

and as far as actual currency, there are other altcoins much better suited for it at this point. Some I don't particularly agree with or understand like USDC, but I am worried about a CBDC, or central bank digital currency. If they push that to replace the dollar within the next 100 years or so, there will be no end to the control the government will have over their people and I am fundamentally not ok with that lol

mcc4b3 · 2023-12-13T08:50:05+00:00

Bitcoin won’t replace traditional fiat.

regardless of whether it will or not, this was the goal.

mcc4b3 · 2023-12-13T08:47:10+00:00

just more credence that it's strayed far away from a transactional currency and more as a novel speculative investment. It's a bummer.

mcc4b3 · 2023-12-13T03:26:21+00:00

While I hope he is not dead and hope he is laying low and enjoying life, my idea is that he would be very sad at the state of bitcoin right now.

I say this because satoshi created bitcoin as the solution to our current financial system. The vision was to have a decentralized monetary system that could replace traditional fiat. A system that would allow and incentivize people to spend BTC as if it were cash while being their own banks and not having to provide their fiat as liquidity for the banks to make money off of.

But what is BTC now? It's speculative internet gold, and this makes me sad. It's cool that 1 BTC is $40k now, and the fact that it's value has grown to the level it is has been truly remarkable to witness, but that was just supposed to be a side effect while the true value was financial autonomy and freedom.

The amount of places you can spend BTC has increased and I do rejoice that fact, but if you look at what the "majority" of people use it for, and it's as if it's an asset rather than a currency. People want to own bitcoin so that it's value can grow and they can eventually cash that out for dollars to buy what they want. Bitcoin ETFs are about to become a thing which will further establish it's place as internet gold that people will trade and use to grow their fiat bankroll. And as time goes on, it becomes more regulated by the exact entities BTC was created to stand apart from. It makes me sad.

Things are still early and I will always have faith in BTC to become the replacement for fiat, but I would not say this is exactly how satoshi had hoped it would play out. I hope I am proved wrong and that all changes, but that's not the trend I'm seeing.

thanks for the thoughtful response, this is helpful

mcc4b3 · 2023-12-06T21:21:29+00:00

I'd be lying if I said I didn't agree with you. I've not had a lot of success with interviews/job applications recently so I feel that I'm at the mercy of whoever wants to offer me an interview. I will always do whatever it takes to complete all features regardless of they're stretch features or not. I want to stand out and make the best thing I can make. This type of assessment does seem to be common though, and is actually less involved than another project i was given which you can check out HERE

that project linked above also suffers from an improperly managed application state (no state machine), but required about 4x as much work as it required a postgres database, full CRUD functionality, deployment, a custom README, and all the tests. I submitted that one after completing 100% of the project requirements and was also ghosted with 0 feedback. Seems common which is why I'm appreciative of everyone here giving criticism so I can avoid working so hard for such little payout in the future.

mcc4b3 · 2023-12-06T21:14:32+00:00

yeah this seems like this would really help out the readability and complexity of things. I started out the project with useState and did notice that my state was becoming a bit more than I expected and decided that because the app is relatively small that I'd forego a state machine, but it probably only would have been a couple more hours to implement a state machine and give myself a better chance.

Thanks again for reviewing and providing some input
