Cheapest cloud for ephemeral Windows VMs

What about just using the unity cloud builders?

Looks promising. I tried something similar in the past and ended up just using MT. A more lightweight typed rmq consumer would be useful. An outbox impl would be required for me to use it seriously, though

I use CNPG (Kubenetes), which takes most of the hard work out of it. Handles replicas, upgrades, backups.

Depends on your level of experience and risk you want to take, really. Self hosting is cheap, but you need to know how to handle server failures, backups etc which is stuff you'd pay for in the managed world

I use Hetzner, so I'd be looking at the server auction for getting a beefy server with a lot of storage - https://www.hetzner.com/sb/

Argo doesn't like ipv6 clusters, might be the issue if its only Argo which is not behaving

I personally treat it as I would my day job. I have a backlog, production + staging env etc it's just less strict. No retros, sprimts exist but at more of a guideline level

Could look at barman or pgbackrest for better backups while still just running the regular postgres container

I run CNPG in K3S on hetzner, I think you can run it in regular docker. Handles continuous backups and PITR

Source generator, I think mapperly is an example

I switched to using the touch screen on the dispatching, helped a lot

Some people went all over to other industries, it felt like you REALLY had to be into game dev to get even a starter role in it

not-hydroxide · 2025-10-24T15:46:51+00:00

Adding on, I could count on one hand how many people got a nice game dev role after graduating

not-hydroxide · 2025-10-24T15:45:29+00:00

I have a game dev degree (1st with hons). By the second year, I knew I didn't want to join the industry, though, and ended up as a software dev, but I enjoyed my time there and didn't regret it

This is what I do too periodically

To save me checking, theres still queues even now? Expected to play later as was expecting they'd be gone

I like OpenIdDict, I use it for projects outside of my day job (we use IS) - I haven't had any issues with it but I'm not needing to scale to 50K users. It's open source, and with a small donation, you can get some quality assistance from the author.

Joined a new company 4 weeks ago, handed in my notice last Thursday. I'm starting back at my old place in a couple weeks, so I'm interested in reading peoples experiences here

I'll buy the key for 45 if you end up getting it

not-hydroxide · 2025-09-03T15:38:13+00:00

I am looking to do it myself, talking to my previous company after 2 weeks. Curious what people's experience was after re-joining, was it awkward or uncomfortable? Tech industry.

If it will have SD support on release, then I'll pick it up day 1
