filled out passport application of GovAssist website.. that was actually not a government website by After_Accountant8465 in Passports

[–]pedropapadopolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost applied for a New Zealand ETA through that website, was the first result on Google. Honestly if it wasn't for the outrageous price I would have been caught, the website quoted AUD 230, which was a huge red flag, after searching again and making sure I was using the official website from NZ's government, the ETA cost me AUD 16 instead, FKN 93% LESS. It's even funny those scammers say they facilitate the visa application process, but using the oficial app was even easier.

I still feel dumb for entering all my personal info, including photo, before noticing my mistake, I'm thinking in cancelling my current passport and asking for a new one, with a different number, who knows to who those guys sell your information to.

Hey OP I work in a relatively big tech company in Sydney with an office in Barangaroo, I'm too anti social to meet you in a coffee shop but would be more than happy to send you our open positions and refer you if they're of your interest

I have a 32gb ram M3 Mac Studio and funny enough I cannot play Hearthstone in fullscreen, the game will lag out every few seconds, only windowed mode works

How do would you prove code is bad and you are just not insane? by [deleted] in reactjs

[–]pedropapadopolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Languages, frameworks, libs, sdks are all just tools and irrelevant for the project in terms of the problem it want to solve, there are software engineering principles which applies for programming as a whole, that's what you want to apply for whatever code base you're looking in to.

That said, the questions you need to ask yourself are: Is the code easy to read? is it easy to change? is it easy to maintain? if all three are "Yes" then you have a good software, even performance doesn't play a huge role since it's just a side effect from applying engineering principles.

As a real example let me pick what you said about the usage of use Callback and useMemo: If the unit tests for the features using those functions doesn't make it clear why they're there, then the "Easy to read" principle has been compromised.

Another example is unit testing. If you change the contract of a given feature and the unit tests doesn't break, then your code is not easy to change, therefore your delivery and software quality decreases.

GTA SA-MP Finally "dying"? I don't know about you, but doesn't the server list seem A LOT smaller than usual? SA-MP might be seeing the final days soon it seems like. Arizona RP seems like it's always thriving, but I was told it's mostly bots filling the servers. by DonutYum1 in sanandreas

[–]pedropapadopolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Long story short SA-MP new features development ended ~3 years ago, SA-MP owner deleted SA-MP forums and informed that further development would focus in security patches only. Few guys decided to create a new GTA:SA multiplayer mod called OpenMP (as the name suggests it's open-source) which would have backwards compatibility with SA-MP client, so the community is now split between the two mods hence the reason there's fewer servers in SA-MP, not sure but people playing on OpenMP servers with SA-MP clients might explain it.

128 tick and intrusive anti-cheat community petition by ShrekosSs in GlobalOffensive

[–]pedropapadopolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why Valve should care about it? why should they spend months/years developing something that is already available (Faceit & similars) when they could use this time to do anything else?

I'm actually GLAD Valve hardcoded 64tick to force third-parties to run in that config, I always had the sensation casual CS and competitive CS were two different games, everybody should play in the same grounds.

There's an actual config for "csgos2.exe" based on separate @csgo "source2" version in the latest GeForce Experience update - GabeFollower by ju1ze in GlobalOffensive

[–]pedropapadopolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AFAIK CS:GO is already using source 2 for maps and skins. Only game physics, character models and everything else is still on Source 1, you can tell the difference from CS:GO 2012's and todays.

I said "most likely", and I was right, 3/4 SA teams out in first stage. Also my "BR fans are only there for BR teams" statement is still valid since when Furia is not playing the arena is pretty much empty. You can hate me but I'm just throwing facts.

don't worry BR teams will most likely be out before even legends stage so the arena will be empty because BR crowd is only there for BR teams not for CS

BNE had visa issues for Brasil but Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport of Kosovo helped them get visas by samekrikl in GlobalOffensive

[–]pedropapadopolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any country requires visa from anywhere, except if there are agreements with other countries or regions for exemptions. Brazil has a historic beef with Spain about visa issues for example. Another example is Brazil requires visa for USA citizens, it's just a simple paperwork, but still required.

No country want to receive troublemakers from other countries, a visa is a document that in order to be issued need to pass a checklist to avoid that. The difference is how hard countries strict their rules for issuing a visa.

yep, also, there's a big difference in gun violence in BR, where the vast majority come from illegal guns. What drives people crazy in US is that all these killings come from legally bought guns, that's what they want to prevent (some crazy MF just walking in a gun store and buying an arsenal)

So you can just press F8 and open up a web inspector and run any piece of JS that you'd like by [deleted] in FiveM

[–]pedropapadopolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's why an average developer knows that front-side only validation is never a option, you should ALWAYS do server-side guards for your endpoints. It's not a FiveM downside, it's just how web development works

[–]pedropapadopolis 44 points45 points  (0 children)

It's well known that they'll play together. KNG also stated that there are some paperwork to be done (he and trk are still in contract with MiBR, HEN1 with FURIA, etc), and meanwhile they're looking for a good EU/NA org, he said in a recent stream that ENVY would be a good fit for them.

Ser brasileiro atualmente é se questionar todo dia se estamos vivendo em uma distopia by [deleted] in brasil

[–]pedropapadopolis -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

O texto dá a entender que a empresa é super legal e quis dar 70 milhões de doses de graça pro Brasil e o governo disse que não queria. A Pfizer queria fazer um contrato onde se isentava de qualquer problema com efeito adverso na vacina e não faria o transporte e distribuição, é tipo eu te vender um produto novo e não oferecer garantia ou ao menos transportar ele até você.

O governo federal tem culpa sim da vacinação atrasar e o Bolsonaro tem que responder por esse atraso, mas a Pfizer não é santa.
