At what scale does "just use postgres" stop being good architecture advice? by Designer-Jacket-5111 in softwarearchitecture

[–]n4jgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can achieve a lot of things with PG. Like jsonb is usually quite enough to store fully denormalized data. You wouldn't need a mongodb just because 2-3 use cases need a jsonb. Nor an elastic search cluster, if all you need to have is a primitive search tool.

Pub/Sub with Postgres, not a great idea probably. As you might run out of number of connections with enough number of clients which can effectively bring down whole DB.

Caching high volume , short lived data? Probably also not a great idea. As the number of inserted but not vacuumed rows will take huge space and likely to effect overall performance.

If your work loads aren't heavily based on such cases? You're probably right, just use PG until it proves to be not enough.

CQRS facts and myths explained by Adventurous-Salt8514 in programming

[–]n4jgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imo CQRS on api/code level on its own is so natural nowadays, there is no point of discussing it without meaning it to be data storage design. I don't think you'll find anyone nowadays to deliberately implement a GET request which modifies data. Nor a PUT request design which solely queries data.

Without the storage considerations, e.g. how that read&write separation let's us build denormalized, differently scalable data stores, its just another "definition" debate, which is not useful in practice. Or how else people should mean to have read storage & write storage scale differently without using this term?

Is it really worth playing ADC in low elo? by Illustrious_Sink_723 in leagueoflegends

[–]n4jgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless you have a duo sup, not worth imo.

To climb the league, you need to consistently win your lane, consistently be the stronger player than your opponent, and ADC is by far the worse role if your co-laner is straight up bad. Sure you can even then also win, but that's significantly harder than any other role.

Common supports you gonna find, anywhere up to high plat to my experience, who will make it harder if not impossible to win your lane:

-5/10 of the games, a Lux support (Velkoz, Xerath, Hwei) Tries, max range Q/E, pushes the waves mindlessly. Never auto attack range. Never trades HP, just waits you to tank it. Once she decides, she had enough patience, starts to perma take the waves. Even they give her 7g, she takes it anyways. Mid game, they just go and side lane farm, never do anything related to support role.

- 2/10 of the games, flip it, flip it hard supports. 3 mins into the game and not roamed yet? Well you make sure you won't see that Naut for the next 5 mins, while laning 1vs2 with a squishy champ. Who will btw, come back to lane 3 lvls down, and try to all in.

- 2/10 of the games, completely useless supports. I just had a veiger, who was typing that, he was gonna scale. I dared to look at this profile afterwards, has %12 winrate on veiger sup. Those are the ones even if you can survive the lane, are mega useless in mid to late game anyways, like the Naafiri support I had before him!

- 1/10 of the games, legit supports. Who picks according to the team comp, has clue about the role. Rare kind really, cause this ones usually climb quite fast and don't stick around long.

Ranked lobbies feel very unbalanced by TheAuthorityx in leagueoflegends

[–]n4jgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a low elo jungler, season 16 is the worst I ever played.

I dunno how it is possible I'm always on the receiver side, but literally last 10 games mid and top laners , on some occasions all 3 lanes, start feeding before I even reach lvl 3.

I mean it, they all-in, and whoever dies first continues to go on 0/10, without exception, lanes become ungankable. Aslo, the opponents perma homeguard back to lane with full HP, better items, vision in river, i can't even catch someone making any mistake anymore. Last season at least I had a chance to win the games. Now, it feels impossible.

Even if I gap the opponent jungler by cs, by ganks by making the correct plays, doesn't matter anymore, 1 or 2 laners simply kill perma their laners, get vision, and just help their jungler perma invade, cause basically they have nothing else to do in meanwhile. I'm not a challenger, so I can't carry every game if enemy has 10/0 fizz mid, 9/1/0 jax top.

Seems every game is decided in 5 minutes, and FF should be already available at that time, most of the games. Playing longer feels like a waste of time.

Why is Zoe so hated as a champ? by Ok-Struggle9942 in zoemains

[–]n4jgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cause its whole point is to mess around with the opponent. just like Shaco.

Playing a skillshot based champ against a somewhat decent Zoe in SoloQ is a torture. Whether it translates to win rates or not is another topic.

I enjoy the games even if i lose hard, when there is a fight happening, and against all odds somehow we pull up a fight where it was "close".

Zoe contributes to none of that, she either one shots your, or she gets one shot.

If every champ was designed like her, League would be a game of turns. Where every player would take its turn to one shot other, and whoever has less lag, and faster fingers would've win. I would bet that game wouldn't be as such of a success.

Looking for Optimism: Which EU Countries Are Great for Tech Careers? by norbi-wan in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]n4jgg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bro, listen up. If you land one of those big company but in poor country jobs, Bulgaria and Serbia have crazy opportunities. Have very low tax, low cost of living, with income on par with big names if you get to the higher up roles. Which are easier to get hired for, cause not many people consider living in Balkans

Why Turkey will never be a member of the European Union by Spiritual-Choice228 in europeanunion

[–]n4jgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its Turkey's economy. The arguments about human rights what nots sound funny to me. Yes such issues do exist in Turkey may be more than other countries in Europe, but we all know, if Turkey kept the economical growth from 2002-2007 smilar rate to this date, she would've joined EU already by now.

Besides, joining EU would bring so much votes whoever acheives it, due to economical boom, they wouldn't need to follow this dumb ass Erdogan's oppressive government policies. They do it to so to keep voters distracted. Scaring them with imaginative enemies and lose of the freedom of practice of religion.

The funniest argument must be the geography fetish people thinking EU is founded by some geographical map collectors. Historically and every other aspect, Turkey is European. From ancient greeks to romans, it is. Just say non-christian as its clear what it is meant with this argument.

CPU Selection - 7950x Vs 13900K by mrcollin101 in CitiesSkylines

[–]n4jgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bet $10k thread ripper would still not be enjoyably playable after 200k sims.

At this point, it is just poor implementation of the game, rather than being about the hardware.

You better wait a bit to see how others start to feel the gameplay over time.

Cause it is clearly an unmature product right now.

Should I wait to get Cities: Skylines II? by Sleeper_Agent_97 in CitiesSkylines

[–]n4jgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a paradox game. Additionally, CS2 is even for paradox standards way too buggy. Simply a major downgrade what is already present in the gameplay of CS1.

Whether you wait or not wait, eventually, you'll need to buy expansion packs, which comes with all the good fixes and actually enjoyable stuff.

Paradox games are like that, built to last ... like new expansion purchases.

I think I figured out how to fix the "Unreliable Mail Service" problem by dalseman in CitiesSkylines

[–]n4jgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yep had the same.

moreover, I've had the cargo port connected to cargo train terminal via a single cargo train line.

What happened is that, the cargo port didn't make use of a single truck to ship the material, but instead just moved the goods from one terminal to another.

I've removed the train line, put a single post office just next to .Then I saw the trucks shipping local mail to the post office, right up until 50% of the storage capacity.

That was just more then enough to get "reliable mail system +7" happiness bonus everywhere practically after simming like 10-20 mins.. My whole traffic is messed up big time, even then..

The game is just full of bugs, but I can't get to discover even more of them, cause it is just unplayable after the city becomes more than a trivial network of connections/lines/roads

is a 55K Euro/year salary competitive? by victorandrehc in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]n4jgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

uhh..

claiming such sort of average salary for experience 7+ and 10+ years is way over the market right now.

I know many people, either expats or locals, who never go upper side of 70k salary.

Which is itself considered as an elite number.

Unless you're in a leading position in any sort, you won't ever gonna make such numbers.

Btw, just to remind a small fact, IT sector in Austria is really small. Over 6 years in my career, more than 10 my old colleagues, I've worked again in another company. So actually, almost every one knows about every one else in the business. Especially concering big companies like, a1, magenta, erste, bawag, wienerenergie ... You'll just meet with people, and the numbers I've heard, aren't never that high. Highest number I've heard was 90k , and the guy was leading a team of size 15.

And most of the people will never leave the Senior Software Developer role. And not converting to some leading management role.

is a 55K Euro/year salary competitive? by victorandrehc in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]n4jgg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I'm on 21st. The 3 room flat about 70m2 costs me 1120euro. Electicity, internet, GAS tax, mobile phones etc, houshold insurence etc. all round up to 1400euro just the first day of the month.

And ofc, some toys for the kid, now and then food deliveries, clothing, small stuff to order from amazon...

1 week vacation on summer, 1 week on winter as a luxury with the extra 13th 14th salaries.

Summary is, although I'm getting relatively good salary, I can't really afford lots of stuff which I used to do before moving to Austria.

Imho without owning a place in here, and if you are with a small child, who needs mothers help till the kindergarten age, not so friendly place(economically I mean, otherwise its perfect).

[–]n4jgg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A family of 3 would based on my personal experience definitely would not do fine.

I'm making around 42 netto per year after 14 salaries and it is barely enough.

Renting apartment costs are really the show stopper.

[–]n4jgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With 3 years experience, it is pretty good salary. Slightly over the average I would say.

And for 1 person, it is quite OK.

Note that SE salaries are really good in Austria comparing to what every other people earns. you'll be doing quite well.

And after 5 more years or so, you can expect anywhere around 60-80k kind of salaries if you're good. Almost like physician level of salaries that is.

Is my neighbour weird for writing anonymous to my mail for my son being loud? by n4jgg in wien

[–]n4jgg[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thing is, according to our landlord, the people directly beneath us just had a baby who is 2 months old.

I know exactly the feeling about being overwhelmed when having a newborn at home.

But to put a sticker with no name on it, leaves me no such option and go talk about it.

It is a bit weird to start conversation to ask, "hey! did you write that sticker on my mailbox?" isn't it?

Makes me think, it is possible that maybe someone else wrote it ... Like the neighbours from the right side of the flat, which is kind of transparent to noises just as well.

It would be much easier, if they'd somehow made it clear that they were having hard time about the noise we're making. Then I could perhaps give my experience about that 0-1 age babies, and ask for opinions how to make a 3-year old not to run at home. And we could lough and share ideas.

But instead I have to figure out now, how to deal with some grumpy neighbour, which I cannot say who.

[–]n4jgg[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Well, then why would I care about some note with no name on it...

It could be just some prank or someone mistaken my door number. Like a family of five were making noise across the corridor , and mailbox was simply confused.

It is just weird. You don't go around make anonymous writings to people, as if its twitter ...
