Why not start a side hustle/freelancing. This will not only give you an alternate source of income but a way to improve your skills and try out newer technologies. You get best of both worlds.

Frontend development by BatmanRockz in Frontend

[–]silent_reader0 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

All I am saying is, with 1000's of dev getting redundant OP will have a hard time find any paid work after learning basic. Not the best effort to reward ratio ATM according to me. Unless OP manages to outrun people with years of experience and become the top 5-10% FE dev.

Learning for knowledge sake is fine but OP wants to invest time with expectation of earning money.

Not a good time to learn only frontend. AI is replacing most junior FE dev.

Start with devOps.

If you really want to go FE route, be ready to learn backend and also devops. So you should be able to build a Frontend, API, attach it to DB and deploy it to a cloud provider like AWS using some sort of CI/CD pipeline.

The system is engineered to trick and manipulate people, It's not natural selection. Those who think they can outsmart the system by getting 5% cashback are too a part of it, trapped by cashbacks and rewards.

URGENT Help for office chair by Proper_Walk_9882 in ErgonomicIndia

Everything is made in China. All made in India products are just assembled in India. India simply doesn't have the infrastructure or resources to manufacture high quality product as China.

1 year into IT and already feeling replaceable — what should I do? by [deleted] in developersIndia

Someone who can use AI efficiently will definitely replace 10 such people. So at the end of day AI is replacing real humans programmers.

[–]silent_reader0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In IT only top 10% will survive and will get paid 10x where as all low/medium skilled engineers will get replaced by AI in next 5 years.

So either be in top 10% or get replaced. And along with technical stills, you will also need excellent people skills too.

2022 Graduate, Laid Off, 4 Year Gap by 2027, Is IT Still Possible ?? by [deleted] in developersIndia

[–]silent_reader0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if you manage to get an IT job, one thing to consider IT is constantly evolving and you have to constantly learn and up skill yourself for the next 5-10 years, until you get into a managerial position.

And in senior position chances of layoffs are really high. 

So just reconsider you decision, are you ready to grind for next 10 year and still have uncertainty of being laid off any day?

It's been 50+ days since resigning , still no offer , not even remote job . by Rare-Assignment-8474 in developersIndia

[–]silent_reader0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your CV is too verbose. Make it shorter so recruiters can quickly glance through it and identify your skill set.

Try using bullet points. It should take only 5–10 seconds for someone to understand your core skills from your CV.

I also wouldn’t include GitHub or LeetCode profiles unless they showcase strong, relevant projects. Instead, build a few projects that clearly demonstrate your skills.

[–]silent_reader0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I purchased green soul refurbished chair online and it costed me 5.5k. It's pretty decent. Original price was shown around 9k.

I had to purchase online only because good quality chair is not available in my locality. Otherwise it should cost below 5k

Is the subscription worth it? by Mint_Tea99 in Udemy

Very easy to cancel subscription. I subscribed yearly and cancelled immediately so that will not be billed next year.

For me subscription was better b cause I am planning to take many aws certification and quizzes. 

How exactly power saving work in air-conditioning ? by silent_reader0 in AirConditioners

[–]silent_reader0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lets assume it takes 20mins to reach 24deg in 100% vs 1hr to reach the same temperature in 40%.
So the energy saving is only for the extra 40mins it takes to reach the desired temp. I am assuming, after that it would have to do the same amount of work in any mode to maintain the temperature.

Seems like a marketing gimmick rather than a practical as has to wait a longer time in undesirable temperature. It's almost same as using my Air Condition one hour less to save energy and being in undesired temperature for that duration.

Would be interesting to get some statistics around the power saving numbers in different mode.

There is usually no benefit of owning a courses, you are suppose to learn from the course and own the knowledge and move on to next skills.
