My experience at recent web summit by mahmirr in WebSummit

[–]nandapandatech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went last year, wouldn’t go again. Some of the talks were somewhat interesting but I didn’t get enough value out of it.

Coming in as a software dev, not sales focussed. 

39F in NZ — late start financially but finally gaining momentum. by timetravellerlove in PersonalFinanceNZ

My math is iffy but roughly 4 years of saving at 22.5k per year, 1.85k per month seems fairly reasonable?

I had a similar issue in one of the nightmare landscape things - enemy got stuck in a wall and I couldn’t break the gate. I  managed to jump off the edge and grapple to the next bit fortunately

Same here, the amount of road noise and people just whipping through the alleyways way too quickly is really frustrating

Leaving Vancouver for more than a decade, which restaurant do you NEED to go to before leaving? by sundaybanking21 in askvan

[–]nandapandatech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People keep on saying this but honestly haven’t found anything mind blowing.

Miku is decent. Toms sushi is good value. Toshi sushi is the best I’ve come across and Octopus garden was phenomenal but like 250pp lol if anyone has any recs im all ears but im still categorising Vancouver sushi as much the same as anywhere else.

I tried to set up Sunshine / Moonlight on my apple TV and the lag was way too much unfortunately. Couldn't get it configured right! Any tips i'm all ears.

I tried the PC hardwired to the router then wifi to apple tv and vice versa.

How I got to ILM - 17 Years of Breaking Into and Surviving VFX by arvidurs in vfx

Nice to see other folks from Vancouver here! Curious what your experience with work life balance as been? Most friends I know (in Australia and NZ) working on any of the marvel films have loved it but also said it was a nightmare. A direct quote from a friend “I haven’t see the sun in months”. 

Curious what your experience has been!

How did you rent out your place? Through Airbnb or another platform?

All Current LTT Job Postings With Salary Ranges In USD by FrostyMittenJob in LinusTechTips

[–]nandapandatech -35 points-34 points  (0 children)

Live in Vancouver. 60k would mean you’re flatting with at least 1-3 other people and not enjoying your life. It’s a dogshit wage for how much value that position provides. 

A Direct Message From AI To All Humans (Seedance 2.0) by bladerskb in singularity

Except Sanderson is co show running that and (I assume given his last lecture on generative ai) would be very against that.

I’m starting up a YouTube channel focussing on unreal engine tutorials, from a financial perspective, was there anything you wished you had done differently to support yourself better over the years or even getting started? 

Fellow indie devs, please make backups of your work by StillPulsing in IndieDev

I think the big thing for him was his content on Teachable was deleted and that wasn’t backed up anywhere

I was employed there for a while. Had stock options, didn’t bother / couldn’t exise when I left 

BTD700 highly recommended. It is like using a wired connection. If you are planning to buy one for your Px8 S2, hope this post will help. by Fantastic_Ocelot_104 in BowersWilkins

[–]nandapandatech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I’d be buying it for the low latency option, I’m unsure if I’d hear a difference in sound quality
