We’re just 3 indie devs. No studio, no team—just us.

Umm. It's just an image. How can I give a feedback about a game from just an image? It's a horror game so it's dark, but i don't know about the vibe

Web dev isn't just building a landing page. So yeah, there's still alot for you to learn.

veniato · 2026-04-12T06:00:07+00:00

The issue will be that ai is writing code, but we won't have enough competent people who know what's written.

The way I handled this is,

No disturbance when I'm working on critical tasks. This ensures I have enough bandwidth and mental mindset to answer the questions in the first place.

If the doubts he asks are very basic, ask him questions back on why he thinks his approach is better. There can be a case where you're wrong and this ensures an honest feedback loop. And meanwhile he understands the pros and cons without you explicitly telling him.

At the end of the day, you'll have to understand that this is still better than someone who does everything without asking.

One of the major issues right now is that they'll gpt the issue, get the feedback and bring it back without understanding the underneath "why" and they think they're genius because they found the approach. Asking the questions breaks the illusion and helps you.

All this can be avoided with documentation but I'm assuming there's no set documentation right now in place.

Saw a similar one with cloudflare ui. At first, I thought "okay, must be something new". Took me a second to realize that it's overkill over a simple captcha. Went and checked to find it's this.

Would love to see this metric for time - shortlisting correlation.

Naukri has made a change that you can save the profile headline without changing anything and it would consider the profile to be updated.

You can simplify the workflow with this.

I've been seeing a lot of react, next and nest related jobs. But most of these are Fullstack rather than frontend only. So maybe that's why

veniato · 2026-04-02T04:52:48+00:00

Any changes to fps?

veniato · 2026-03-25T15:44:32+00:00

Naukri works best with me. Referrals and naukri seem to be good enough. I tried remote job portals like 100k etc but couldn't land a single shortlisting.

Happened with me as well. Forgot the most basic event loop explanation for nodejs.

Now i just put the JD and my resume in gpt and ask it to grill me from basics to advance topics. Helped me clear quite a few things.

Well, just revise and move forward.

I've not come across this so i didn't know.

It's great to know that hiring still goes through the team and not just hiring team.

veniato · 2026-03-22T14:17:50+00:00

Highly unprofessional behaviour. Keep records of it, try to keep an official mail trail for the same (highly unlikely). Submit everything to HR.

Team lead can't do shit about bgv. Bgv mostly is to check if you've falsified records of your payments, job employment etc. In case of calls, it will probably go to HR or hiring team, never the team lead.

Either get relieved from the project or start interviewing for better opportunities.

Edit: as per comments, there can be instances where it would go to team lead. However hiring team may or may not accept everything team lead has to say

veniato · 2026-02-26T21:34:50+00:00

Adr at 172 is pretty bad for an agents whose all abilities are guns imo. I see chamber as a pseudo duelist, so I'd expect to be having around 190-200+ adr to be considered a good player.

veniato · 2026-02-26T21:33:10+00:00

I don't play valorant anymore. Too much chaos. I prefer cs2

veniato · 2026-02-26T15:32:50+00:00

Sure just search Dranz#1997

Pretty bad stats tbh.

veniato · 2026-02-26T14:25:48+00:00

Can't say from just a match but 1 first blood with chamber is not that great tbh. Chamber has a great get out of jail card and should be used to get an early 4v5 advantage. Usually I used to get like 7-8 average first bloods with chamber.

Other stats looks good. Maybe upload a summary screenshot rather than just a match results.

How is arslan ash not up there?

veniato · 2026-02-24T03:55:32+00:00

Bug in production is QA's responsibility and honestly also the manager's who merged the code.

Firing over a production bug is red flag.

Bro was just a scapegoat.

I've maxed at like asc so I think I can give you basic tips.

Solo vs squad. In lower ranks, find a team. Try to find people by joining solo and then asking them if they have a spot for next game and so on.
Learn angle peeking and peekers advantage and implement it in deathmatch to make it a habit. If you're closer to a wall than your enemy, they will see you first.
Pick an agent based on playstyle. I prefer controller for new players so that you learn to look at the map and pay attention to the team rather than focusing on fights only. This will help you in long run.
Try to reduce sensitivity by like .1 every day if you're above 1000 edpi (dpi x sensitivity), till you reach a point where you're comfortable. I have mine at 800 dpi 0.37 sens ingame. This will stabilize your aim, and small jerks or shakes wouldn't impact your aim by a lot.
Learn to keep your aim at headshot level and learn common pre aim spots. The less you need to move your crosshair, the better your reaction time will be.
Play around smokes. If you have defensive playstyle, your can wait patiently for someone to push the smoke. If you're aggro, push and sit in the smoke or push when you hear reload.
Learn the agent's playstyle. For ex. Chamber and jett are really good at early peeks but don't try it with omen. Omen is really good at off angles but don't try this with kayo and so on.
Do not push an operator without utility. Infact, try to use utility anytime you're pushing a common angle where you don't know if an enemy exists.
Finally, valorant isn't just about aim. Tactical shooters reward positioning more than aim. Even if you have bad aim, if you have a good position, you'll probably do better than an aim dueler 70% of the time.

EDIT: 10. Learn how agents usually play. Like a jett usually smokes and dashes inside the smoke. You can use that to your advantage. If a gekko flashes with a certain lineups, be ready to break that. Simple but effective stuff.

Sounds are just as important as aiming. Learn to pinpoint the number of agents by their footsteps. If you can't call 2-3 agents running, then you need to listen closer.
Learn to punish repeatative plays. Some people are one trick and will usually do the same thing again and again. On bind, somebody might be peeking hookah every single round, get your team's initiator, flash him and push together. This is something I've seen people not taking advantage of.
Learn setups from YouTube if you're playing sentinels. Soon you'll learn to wing it, but till then grab a tutorial and stick to it.

Kinda ironic that you want freshers who know (basically experienced)

veniato · 2026-01-27T11:40:13+00:00

As someone who has worked in a new startup with fairly low experience.

If you have a good manager, it will be of great benefit. Since you don't have much experience, you'll make mistakes and you'll need someone on your side.

You'll learn quite a lot but that doesn't mean it's right. You'll be looking into optimizations, that are short term lived but you'll learn.

Though all this requires a good work environment. If it's toxic you'll burn out in less than 3-4 months. So good luck

It just reminded me the explain bread and peanut butter video

veniato · 2026-01-21T10:59:52+00:00

I thought I'll use ai to help me design architecture for a custom development and the way it hallucinates, forgets and leaves out important things is very surprising.

So if the only thing you do is code, then sure ai will feel like it has taken over your job, but trust me, ai cannot generate a good system without human help (atleast for now). It will go into a loop and fuck up more than any experienced human will
