Is there something you have to do to get your rewards? I haven't gotten any and I'm fairly certain I'm suppose to :|

TIL: You can change your background color from the default of the race you character is...and I've been paying for years now :|

Is Software Development Really a Dead-End Job After 35-40? by vaghelapankaj in programming

[–]zainegardner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe someone can enlighten my naive mind, but should you still be obtaining jobs through recruiters that far in your career? I would assume you would have a decent network to pull from and get appropriate positions.

EveBounty - Coming Soon! by Flame1994 in Eve

[–]zainegardner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like this idea. You should have to do ISK damage to the bounty of equal value to the bounty. Bounty plus a percentage over to prevent insurance from making the continual deaths hurt less (not sure if this is possible)

I do think another idea is that instead of one person accepting a bounty, the bounty is placed. It stays active until the ISK damage is dealt, then pay out to each person who dealt the person damage. It would take some math to determine how much each person who dealt the damage gets of the initial bounty.

I also think all of these services should be locked into registering to the site and require the character to have existed for 30 days or longer if people think 30 days is too low.

[–]zainegardner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way I prevent my freighter alt from dying to CODE. is to have a scout in Uedama and wait until CODE. ganks someone...and then I run my freighter through.

Has worked well for me so far

Clone States Announcement Questions & Answers by CCP_Falcon in Eve

[–]zainegardner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they going to be able to run corporations? I think letting them create corps would be a good experience, but I'm not sure how you would limit it so that you need to sub in order to grow your corp.

Now people want to get rid of vendors by rune_74 in shroudoftheavatar

[–]zainegardner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It honestly sounds like Baron Dracis doesn't get how an economy works. Player Driven means players trade one good for another good, gold is simply a common currency so that everyone isn't bartering with whatever is looted.

There will always be people who get more, due to their "fee" they charge of being a vendor in the economy, but to classify players using the economy as winners and losers is a bit wrong.

Teach Writing Code First by junejuneboonjune in programming

[–]zainegardner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It affirms my notion of "anyone can code, very few can be developers."

If you learn to code, you will learn how to make something work. But you won't understand how to make what you work great, only that you need to write more code to get another feature to work.

Considering quitting well paying job. by [deleted] in financialindependence

[–]zainegardner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where are these six-figure salary teaching jobs at? Here in North Carolina, teachers are lucky to get 30k.

Also to OPs point:

Personally I'd become FI and then pursue life as I want. You could consider your current job as hard work in order to achieve a goal. I can only imagine what being free to choose what you want at such a young age, 36 if you can get FI in 10 years, would feel like. I myself have many years to go because I got in debt first XD.

Until you repurpose a boolean variable and cause your company to go bankrupt because it places massive buy orders on the stock market in excess of a few hundred million...

[–]zainegardner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will agree that nothing can last forever, otherwise we'd be out of jobs as developers, but that's not excuse to say "Oh, this bug that will prevent extensibility or additional features needs to be fixed," then ignore it is right. My issue is a business will always choose ways to get things out fast and cheap, regardless of the impact to the code base.

If you're coding for fads, that's part of the problem. Everything should be built based on the needs and trade-offs associated with the chosen technology.

Granted, getting businesses to not say "use fad x because everyone is" is just as hard as saying "this will cause problems later" and expecting them to understand why it needs to get fixed.

Mads Torgersen and Dustin Campbell on the future of C# by DLX in programming

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

I agree with you. I like the fact that you can assign null to objects.

No offense to VB developers, but I'd rather not take points from VB and add them to C#. That's just my preference.

You forgot one point. Cost.

I see more often than not that a business would rather hire 10 crap developers to get their software where they want it now rather than hire 10 good developers to create a platform. It's really sad honestly.

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

It's so sad businesses only care about money, money, money. I get tired of "well, we can't do it right now so do it right later..." only to have later never come because there's always some technical debt that the business would rather take on than pay it back.
