https://devops.com/dear-staging-wer...
What the F#*@&$# %#@$!?!?!
This person has decided to skip using staging, because it doesn't correctly reflect prod!
If that's your problem, than why don't you try to fix it? Create a DB with fake data, make one based on anonymised customer data, or even do it on non-anonymised data (with permission of course), but fix the staging env so that it reflects prod!
This is a devops site (it's literally the name!), and instead of teaching you how to make staging exactly like prod, they tell you to do what caused the creation of the staging->prod system IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!
There's all these stuff like Vagrant that are literally designed to help you as a dev mimic prod, and you just throw it all out!?
"With feature flags, I can safely test in production without fear of breaking something or negatively affecting the customer experience."

Last week I did a test for a huge real estate company here in Dubai.
The test they asked to create a database of students and use jquery datatables so far is easy.
But they told you cannot use any framework and uses mvc structure, in other words, build your own framework. It's ok.
But my main concern is, the company is quite famous to not provide proper feedbacks or just forgot about you. And I would be very piss off if after of 3 entires days building my own framework, doing documentation, code comments those guys didn't reply me any feedback.4 -
Alright got an idea I have for my game engine that I'd love some input on...
So the engine has emphasis on user made content and openness to that content (EG. open source dev tools and no licencing of art) but I also want to try and build a basic ecosystem with the engine and one way I'm doing it is with cross game mods (Take a mod from one game and drop it in another and it just works... Famous last words) but something I want to try is a companion app for the engine itself...
So it'll have a custom written save system baked in engine to make progress saving and the like simpler for the end user, thinking about building an app for smart watches and phones that would connect to the engine and actually back up and sync local saves to the app and vice versa as long as they have a connection (Hotspot your phone, bluetooth or wifi) but allow you to manage some data within the app by building a basic API to let devs show the user information about the save and the game by adding description, thumbnails to distinguish games and the like...
Just want opinions if it may be a good idea to invest some time into and if anyone has idea's that could make it better.6 -
So been doing a freelance project for the past week, small backend API with a front-end, thought I'll give react.js a shot and actually learn it (know a bit of the basics) so using MERN including tailwindcss.
Built the API in a few days, quick and easy. Down to react, not going to lie. Once you dive into it, it's really nice to use. Just tackled a contact form and a few dynamic pages using props, state etc today. Now onto the rest of the site including the the Dashboard to CRUD records.
Still have a lot to learn. But given what I've learned so far. Don't see it taking too much longer.
Famous last words though 😅 -
Linux, you never fail to amaze me!
Started using Arch based Manjaro with xfce de couple of months ago. Everything was mostly fine even though I've never used anything that was based on Arch but it had a learning curve.
Couple of weeks ago I couldn't update my packages, I thought it would fix it by itself but I was wrong as you already probably know.
So yesterday I tried to manually fix it. Famous last words. After a lot of googling, trying some terminal commands - and failing, I see a warning labek on some text on the arch wiki - sudo pacman -Syi --force. I said fuck it and did it. Let's see if it works, I try to install a package, I mistype the name, press backspace - it puts a space instead of deleting?!?!?
I tried restarting, googling - nothing...
Guess I'll switch back to Debian based OSes.5 -
HIRE A QUALIFIED ETHEREUM AND USDT RECOVERY EXPERT VISIT→FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY.
It was during one session that my trainer casually mentioned his brother had used FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY to recover $160,000 after a wallet disaster. I nodded along, pretending to be paying attention, while in my head thinking, "That's not gonna happen to me. I'm a crypto genius! " Famous last words, right?
A week later, a software glitch had locked me out of my $280,000 wallet, and suddenly I wasn't feeling quite so genius-like. I sat staring at the screen as my heart went through the floor. This was that 'once in a lifetime' they always spoke about, which would never happen to me. Panic mode: on. The usual 'click every button so it hopefully magically fixes itself' approach, complemented by less-than-legal-sounding Google searches, later, with no dice. The wallet was gone, and with it, my calmness. Then, it struck me-my trainer had talked about FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY. I really wasn't expecting much, but at that juncture, I figured I had nothing left to lose except, you know, my $280,000. So I picked up the phone and called them, bracing myself for what I was sure would be an automated message asking if I wanted to leave a voicemail. But no, this time it was different: on the other end was a real human. A calm, composed human who sounded like they had their life together-something I hadn't felt in the last 30 minutes. FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY didn't send me some generic recovery instructions but took me through it like a friend, presenting real solutions and steady guidance. They didn't treat me like some panicked, inexperienced crypto newbie, which I really was. They reassured me and knew just what to do; within hours, I had my funds back. I couldn't believe it; speechless was all that remained. Not only did they recover my wallet, but they also helped me secure it properly for the future. I was no longer the guy who thought he could just wing it with some random software updates. Now, I'm the guy who recommends FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY to everyone at the gym, at work, and anywhere else I can get a captive audience. After all, if you're going to talk about losing $280,000, you might as well make sure the next person isn't you. So, my advice is not to underestimate the power of random gym conversations, because that one mention saved me from financial disaster. To get in touch with FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY for assistance, WhatsApp +1 740-705-0711 them or email: FOLKWINEXPERTRECOVERY@TECH-CENTER (dot) C OM, And the next time you're about to do something dicey in crypto, remember to back up your wallet-and maybe listen a little closer to those offhand comments. You won't regret it, trust me.
Warm greetings,
Mis Karoline Leavitt.
