Has anyone worked with these 2 APIs
°Chargebee
°Billbee

I'm using chargebee for creating invoices
with a AWS lambda passing invoice data from chargebee to billbee to create an order in billbee
I'm in need of help on how to get item SKU
and on which side do i extract SKU
the SKU value is necessarily for mapping products in billbee when the order is created

I got an idea for a fun api which can convert the style of input text, for example “hey I am a chatbot, please ask your query” if converted to the style of yoda from Star Wars will be “chatbot am I, queries you must ask”. There can be different styles like archaic English, sports commentary etc.
I’ve got the ai part ready, just need to write an api (I’m learning django for that). Has anyone got any experience with api marketplaces, I’m not sure what to use?

What can I use instead of JavaScript? From what I’m reading this language seems like self harm, and I’m not a masochist.

so which company is the new faang among developers? you know, the one where there is a good WLB, nice pay , 5-7 hr work/day and other benefits , but with a high entry barrier?

I am thinking of starting to revise DS/Algo for some interview prep

What the fuck is the edge™

As an anti-aliasing nerd it's sad to say but there is really is only one* good choice left: Just use DLSS

(* and if you aren't on nvidia then sucks to be you, FSR for you I guess)

Xiaomi is demanding to sign in to an account to enable "Install via USB". It has to be enabled, otherwise it prevents the app under development to be installed, either via USB, or wireless.

Thank you, temp-mail for existing, and fuck off, Xiaomi. I should have bought another Samsung instead, but I didn't know any better.

is there even anyone who thinks natively in rust

if someone knows someone with YouTube channel or something that'd be great

I don't mean explanations but they actually intuitively design in it inside their own heads

generally my brain catches onto that fast but with rust I find i prototype stuff then have to go back and rewrite everything... which is a pain
and now I'm trying to do a complicated iterator object with sub functions and my brain evidently needs to make a leap over like 5 new concepts and I don't know if it's worth the effort or it will go nowhere

but if there's videos of somebody who codes natively, unconscious competence in rust then I could pick up the intuition way faster from watching them
just the problem is any content for rust is made by people who don't seem to really know rust, but are just moonlighting through it or fanboys of it

Okay, so most of the backend stuff is done: the parser, VM and assembler can be considered in working state. Now I only need to combine these bytecode files I'm outputting to enable including and-- FUCK. I HAVE TO WRITE A LINKER.

Are you using rust at your job?

Angular - object oriented programming

React - functional programming

Now i fucking understand why nextjs does not have any design patterns. No folder structure for it either. Every project is fucking random and you need to learn every fucking project from scratch cause people stuff shit into different folders and file names

fucking rude, that's what it is. Start chatting in a language not everyone in the room understands. It's also de quickest way to make me deslike you, even if I myself understand the language.

In my eyes it literally downgrade the speakers from humans to monkeys quasi permanently

Do you guys eat at cafeteria at work?

Do you guys eat lunch alone at work?

I read a book called "Never eat alone" a while back yet I still eat alone everyday for the last 1 year because I'm burned out. No energy.

However, I now want to sit and talk to someone whom also always eats alone but I know that person. Which recently joined our company.

We have gotten a rebranding 'document' that we have to implement. It contains 1 image, 4 colors and a new font excluding the font name. Nothing more.

How the fuck did the company pay so much for something so bare bones...

Got an interview request for a new job. They mostly do WordPress. I don't want to touch WordPress.

Talked to the Project Manager woman on the phone about the job, seems decent.

Sounds like a nice place to work at, but I just can't do the WordPress thing, man.

Is it just me or is anyone else not feeling very welcome if they have a jobinterview but the person doing the interview isn’t smiling the tiniest bit even. Just dead seriousness.

Want to leave company due to insanely bad WLB

Don't wanna leave as wanna get to next step as manager someday, idk how else to become a manager other than be promoted to it

Big regrets

Cloudflare knows: I can't be human if I can add "Vivaldi" to my user agent string.

You know its a good end of the work week, when you feel compelled to mention the Geneva convention in your last PR before logging off :)

I know it's pedantry but I flinch whenever I read "please RSVP"

I have gotten some ridiculous rejections to my job applications recently - some of them were quite nit-picking gatekeeper sort of answers to the assignments like "oh you haven't used aria-label in a proper way" or "oh your error messages were not clear enough".

Then I see the same positions being open still after 5 months. This happened 4 times in a row. What is going on? Why do companies place job ads and waste time interviewing people, if they don't want to hire anybody? Am I missing something here? 🤔

Today I was told I can't use the word retrofit in a sentence because I have to 'use words a nice year old would understand'

There's being an effective communicator and then there's becoming a soulless, creativity killing nazi

Terse code plus lots of comments is better than so-called “self-documenting code”.

Joke about Rust all you want, but Rust is the reason efficient programs are on vogue. When you see a web developer optimizing their JavaScript to make a smaller bundle, or a backend developer getting rid of dependencies, thank Rust for that.
I don't like Rust, I don't like their community, I don't like their superiority complex, but their existence is net positive so far.

Why are some devs so insistent on doing a change one way when another works perfectly fine, is readable and maintainable and properly tested

JS method names I still can't remember, even after 6 years of writing in it:

append is called concat,
any is called some,
all is called every,
contains is called includes

I always have to pause for a good long while or look it up when I need to use any of these is annoying, but my brain refuses to adapt to these names.

Recently my work is just making designs for upcoming features / reworks that will probably take months to even start developing. I mentioned a few weeks ago again that I rather write code and now this sprint, it is 100% design tickets :(

My tip for staying productive: **Don't**

Take a break. Take a few. Have a nap. Take a stroll outside. Enjoy life.

Life's too short. If you're not having fun, you're doing it wrong.

Fuck productivity.

This is one of the coolest shader tutorials I have seen.

https://youtube.com/watch/...

It simply walks you through start to finish enhancing a weapon. I also found it can also be applied to 2D games as well. What I don't like is it is not setup to be generic. I will have to figure out how to make it be a weapon effect you can apply. I think having weapons provide a mask for where the shaders should be applied would make that possible. Then the generic effects can be applied to the weapons or removed. No need to have unique weapons of every type and for every effect.

This is the kind of tutorials that really get me going. When thinking of 2D I had not really thought about using shaders like this.

does anyone else find it wild that there are hundreds or even thousands of products you've never heard of with over $1M+ ARR? this is just mind boggling to me
