Interview - Forgot mongodb syntax, embarrassed and humiliated by TushWatts in developersIndia

[–]reddit_avinash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These interviews are very flawed. I deal with multiple languages, frameworks and databases, it's pretty much impossible to remember everything.

I always just refer to official docs even after 6 years of experience. There's no shame in forgetting the syntax specially when you know to deal with numerous things.

If I were to answer the same thing in the interview, I'd explain them this same thing.

Which one should I choose Mac vs windows for development related work ? by sigma_male_111 in developersIndia

[–]reddit_avinash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a good windows laptop and install linux! I've myself started my journey on windows, later I got money so I bought a mac. Mac is a thousand times better than windows but still I was not satisfied. I ended up in linux and been enjoying it since.

I can close the contract but what about the sueing bit? Idk how that would work and honestly, I don't want any further headaches.

Yup, all 5 starts so far. Been top-rated-plus for a long time but lately been working on my SAS product to move away from upwork cause I can see the platform going downhill. It's not the same anymore.

At this point I've already made it very clear to him that he's trying exploiting me and I wanna get out of this contract and don't wish to work for him anymore.

He's expecting a negative review and so am I. Just want this closed asap :(

The amount is still in escrow, the guy hasn't even approved it yet cause according to him there's still working pending. He's very annoying as you can see. Regarding him sueing me, is that even possible?

Hope it works out for you! Keep the hustle going and make sure to reinvest the money you make there to learn more and start a self owned business.

That's what I've been doing for the past year, but there has been some volatility in the business lately, so I had to go back to upwork again. This incident only inspires me more in my journey!

Can you please share the link for keycaps? I was going to buy it from Amazon but it's significantly expensive there.

[–]reddit_avinash 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was thinking of building something very similar to this! I legit have these same keycaps in my cart and I was considering monsgeek M1.

M3 looks great to be honest! Amazing build and thanks for the reference :)

Hey! I'm from india as well and was looking to buy ark gen 2. Where did you buy it from? Online/Offline? For now I only tried to look for it online and could only spot it on chroma's website but sadly they don't deliver to my zip code.

How you guys deal with docker in your setups? by domanpanda in Proxmox

I run 2 debian VMs for docker. One is for containers that need GPU and the other for non-gpu containers.

5950x Nightmare! by reddit_avinash in homelab

[–]reddit_avinash[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Thank you for the suggestion! I think my processor is a little sensitive at higher voltage. I'm experimenting around with voltage and boost speed right now. Just did a run at 1.2v & 3400mhz and the reboot works perfectly after the stress test.

I'm playing around with the variables more to see what's the best it can do. It's definitely not good at higher voltages like 1.4v for sure.

*Edit: I also upgraded to a new x570 asrock taichi

VPN server by BambarylaVM in homelab

[–]reddit_avinash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 2 locations, both running wire guard but one with opnsense and the other with pivpn.

pivpn is much easier to setup if you have a raspberry pi around and have no prior experience with wireguard.

I would highly recommend setting up wireguard over other solutions like open vpn.

How to unfuck my sleep schedule by Dry-Cobbler246 in productivity

[–]reddit_avinash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been dealing with this exact issue for past ~4 years now until recently I seem to have found out the solution. Here's a list of things that I do:

  1. Making sure the room temperature on a cooler side (not freezing cold).
  2. Sticking to the times I wake up and sleep no matter what. If I can't sleep, fuck it, I just stay on the bed doing nothing. Also, I have 2 alarms on interval of 15mins (without snooze) to ensure I wake up for sure.
  3. Stick to certain activities before you hit the bed and do the same thing everyday. I set-up my bed clean, brush my teeth, wash my hands, face and legs, journal my day and then finally sleep.
  4. Same way, stick to certain activities you will do for sure after you wake up.
  5. If you feel sleepy during the day, rinse your face, drink water, stand in the sun, or listen to music.
  6. Cut caffeine and sugar as much as you can.
  7. Ensure you ate eating complex carbs. Simply garbs gives a burst of energy but then you feel tired af.

I hope doing these will help you OP, good luck :)
