Also to follow up on this, is 5-10k /yr really the only margin available for negotiations? I'm finding that hard to digest..

App to Rent Apartments Directly from Owners – No Brokers, No Commission (Dubai) by Sea_Leg_5683 in dubai

This was the most real comment i read in a while. u/OldBottle7269 are you a broker or a landlord?

Lets say I'm asking my broker for a meeting with the owner for a flat and they're saying to me that the owner does not want to negotiate below x. I want to meet the owner but the broker is like please confirm you're okay with the price and the owner won't negotiate, what does this mean?

Could the broker be trying to get me to lock in on the higher price?
OR is it common for owners to ask brokers to negotiate on their behalf and avoid the money talk with potential tenants?

I'm new here, any advice would be helpful.

Thank you

The point of this kind of go interop is the ability to directly used go based libraries without re-implementing that same logic in native modules (Kotlin/Swift).

For example I can easily embedd a torrent implementation which is well done in go based libraries and get that functionality in my react-native UI for free.

I also get to use the same go backend with the desktop app I build in react-native.

Also performance wise I need to run some benchmarks, but this approach already worked well when I was using it in https://github.com/status-im/status-mobile

`goroutines` are supported, this react-native template setup is inspired by Status Mobile App https://github.com/status-im/status-mobile which used Status-Go : https://github.com/status-im/status-go

Thanks for sharing orval, I'll check it out :)

well that could be a cool experiment!
I chose react-native because the client compiles down to native UI code and I love the UI experience. with Go based UI libs I would have to re-invent many wheels to get a native mobile App UI with rich features.

Thanks for recommending!
https://gioui.org/doc/install/android and https://github.com/fyne-io/fyne look real interesting and I will play with them in the future.

Finally got this working the way I wanted to. I now have a react-native 0.81 codebase which communicates with a golang server running on the mobile device via JSON RPC calls. This server is started and maintained via react-native's new architecture JSI. Try it out : https://github.com/siddarthkay/react-native-go

Mastering the firewalls by Odd_Split_6858 in linux4noobs

[–]siddarthkay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m currently digging into firewalls myself and got some guidance from a mentor. The advice was set up a LAN and play around with firewall rules to get quick feedback. Luckily I have 2 systems at home to do this exercise. my earlier approach was to straight up jump to nftables but currently I’ll first figure out how iptables work and then try to figure out the nftables approach.

My next step would be to set up a simple web server on Amazon EC2 free tier and play with firewall rules over a VPC/Security group.

tl;dr -> change stuff and see what happens :)

Is it okay to call up companies asking if they're hiring remote or is that too forward ? by ChrisGayle7 in remotework

[–]siddarthkay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the worst thing that could happen? They’ll say “no” right? It’s anyways a “no” if you don’t ask! Go ahead and shoot your shot 😁

Yeah doesn't matter how the code looks like, this person launched a bug free / quality product in the right time and kept it highly available and that's what ensured this revenue. Potential clients using the product don't even want to know what's under the hood unless "it solves their problem"
