After over 20 years as a Software Engineer, Architect, and Manager, I want to pass along some unsolicited advice to junior developers either because I grew through it, or I've had to deal with developers who behaved poorly:
1) Your ego will hurt you FAR more than your junior coding skills. Nobody expects you to be the best early in your career, so don't act like you are.
2) Working independently is a must. It's okay to ask questions, but ask sparingly. Remember, mid and senior level guys need to focus just as much as you do, so before interrupting them, exhaust your resources (Google, Stack Overflow, books, etc..)
3) Working code != good code. You are an author. Write your code so that it can be read. Accept criticism that may seem trivial such as renaming a variable or method. If someone is suggesting it, it's because they didn't know what it did without further investigation.
4) Ask for peer reviews and LISTEN to the critique. Even after 20+ years, I send my code to more junior developers and often get good corrections sent back. (remember the ego thing from tip #1?) Even if they have no critiques for me, sometimes they will see a technique I used and learn from that. Peer reviews are win-win-win.
5) When in doubt, do NOT BS your way out. Refer to someone who knows, or offer to get back to them. Often times, persons other than engineers will take what you said as gospel. If that later turns out to be wrong, a bunch of people will have to get involved to clean up the expectations.
6) Slow down in order to speed up. Always start a task by thinking about the very high level use cases, then slowly work through your logic to achieve that. Rushing to complete, even for senior engineers, usually means less-than-ideal code that somebody will have to maintain.
7) Write documentation, always! Even if your company doesn't take documentation seriously, other engineers will remember how well documented your code is, and they will appreciate you for it/think of you next time that sweet job opens up.
8) Good code is important, but good impressions are better. I have code that is the most embarrassing crap ever still in production to this day. People don't think of me as "that shitty developer who wrote that ugly ass code that one time a decade ago," They think of me as "that developer who was fun to work with and busted his ass." Because of that, I've never been unemployed for more than a day. It's critical to have a good network and good references.
9) Don't shy away from the unknown. It's easy to hope somebody else picks up that task that you don't understand, but you wont learn it if they do. The daunting, unknown tasks are the most rewarding to complete (and trust me, other devs will notice.)
10) Learning is up to you. I can't tell you the number of engineers I passed on hiring because their answer to what they know about PHP7 was: "Nothing. I haven't learned it yet because my current company is still using PHP5." This is YOUR craft. It's not up to your employer to keep you relevant in the job market, it's up to YOU. You don't always need to be a pro at the latest and greatest, but at least read the changelog. Stay abreast of current technology, security threats, etc...
These are just a few quick tips from my experience. Others may chime in with theirs, and some may dispute mine. I wish you all fruitful careers!227 -
Here's my piece of advice for new devs out there:
1 - Pick one language to learn first and stick with it, untill you grasp some solid fundamentals. (Variables, functions, classes, namespaces, scope, at least)
2 - Pick an IDE, and stick with it for now. Don't worry about tools yet. Comment everything you're coding. The important thing is to comment why you wrote it, and not what it does. Research git and start using version control, even when coding by yourself alone.
3 - Practice, pratice and pratice. If you got stuck, try reading the language docs first and see if you can figure it out yourself. If all else fails, then go to google and stackoverflow. Avoid copying the solution, type it all and try to understand it.
4 - After you feel you need to go to the next level, research best practices first, and start to apply them to your code. Try to make it modular as it grows. Then learn about tools, preprocessors and frameworks.
5 - Always keep studying. Never give up. We all feel that we have no idea of what we are doing sometimes. That's normal. You will understand eventually. ALWAYS KEEP STUDYING.9 -
I'm drunk and I'll probably regret this, but here's a drunken rank of things I've learned as an engineer for the past 10 years.
The best way I've advanced my career is by changing companies.
Technology stacks don't really matter because there are like 15 basic patterns of software engineering in my field that apply. I work in data so it's not going to be the same as webdev or embedded. But all fields have about 10-20 core principles and the tech stack is just trying to make those things easier, so don't fret overit.
There's a reason why people recommend job hunting. If I'm unsatisfied at a job, it's probably time to move on.
I've made some good, lifelong friends at companies I've worked with. I don't need to make that a requirement of every place I work. I've been perfectly happy working at places where I didn't form friendships with my coworkers and I've been unhappy at places where I made some great friends.
I've learned to be honest with my manager. Not too honest, but honest enough where I can be authentic at work. What's the worse that can happen? He fire me? I'll just pick up a new job in 2 weeks.
If I'm awaken at 2am from being on-call for more than once per quarter, then something is seriously wrong and I will either fix it or quit.
pour another glass
Qualities of a good manager share a lot of qualities of a good engineer.
When I first started, I was enamored with technology and programming and computer science. I'm over it.
Good code is code that can be understood by a junior engineer. Great code can be understood by a first year CS freshman. The best code is no code at all.
The most underrated skill to learn as an engineer is how to document. Fuck, someone please teach me how to write good documentation. Seriously, if there's any recommendations, I'd seriously pay for a course (like probably a lot of money, maybe 1k for a course if it guaranteed that I could write good docs.)
Related to above, writing good proposals for changes is a great skill.
Almost every holy war out there (vim vs emacs, mac vs linux, whatever) doesn't matter... except one. See below.
The older I get, the more I appreciate dynamic languages. Fuck, I said it. Fight me.
If I ever find myself thinking I'm the smartest person in the room, it's time to leave.
I don't know why full stack webdevs are paid so poorly. No really, they should be paid like half a mil a year just base salary. Fuck they have to understand both front end AND back end AND how different browsers work AND networking AND databases AND caching AND differences between web and mobile AND omg what the fuck there's another framework out there that companies want to use? Seriously, why are webdevs paid so little.
We should hire more interns, they're awesome. Those energetic little fucks with their ideas. Even better when they can question or criticize something. I love interns.
sip
Don't meet your heroes. I paid 5k to take a course by one of my heroes. He's a brilliant man, but at the end of it I realized that he's making it up as he goes along like the rest of us.
Tech stack matters. OK I just said tech stack doesn't matter, but hear me out. If you hear Python dev vs C++ dev, you think very different things, right? That's because certain tools are really good at certain jobs. If you're not sure what you want to do, just do Java. It's a shitty programming language that's good at almost everything.
The greatest programming language ever is lisp. I should learn lisp.
For beginners, the most lucrative programming language to learn is SQL. Fuck all other languages. If you know SQL and nothing else, you can make bank. Payroll specialtist? Maybe 50k. Payroll specialist who knows SQL? 90k. Average joe with organizational skills at big corp? $40k. Average joe with organization skills AND sql? Call yourself a PM and earn $150k.
Tests are important but TDD is a damn cult.
Cushy government jobs are not what they are cracked up to be, at least for early to mid-career engineers. Sure, $120k + bennies + pension sound great, but you'll be selling your soul to work on esoteric proprietary technology. Much respect to government workers but seriously there's a reason why the median age for engineers at those places is 50+. Advice does not apply to government contractors.
Third party recruiters are leeches. However, if you find a good one, seriously develop a good relationship with them. They can help bootstrap your career. How do you know if you have a good one? If they've been a third party recruiter for more than 3 years, they're probably bad. The good ones typically become recruiters are large companies.
Options are worthless or can make you a millionaire. They're probably worthless unless the headcount of engineering is more than 100. Then maybe they are worth something within this decade.
Work from home is the tits. But lack of whiteboarding sucks.37 -
Online tutorial pet peeves
————————————
My top 10 points of unsolicited ranting/advice to those making video tutorials:
1. Avoid lots of pauses, saying “umm” too much, or other unnecessary redundancy in speech (listen to yourself in a recording)
2. If I can’t understand you at 1.5 - 2x playback speed and you don’t already speak relatively quickly and clearly, I’m probably not going to watch for long (mumbling, inconsistent microphone volume, and background noise/music are frequent culprits)
3. It’s ok to make mistakes in a tutorial, so long as you also fix them in the tutorial (e.g., the code that is missing a semicolon that all of a sudden has one after it compiles correctly — but no mention of fixing it or the compiler error that would have been received the first time). With that said, it’s fine to fix mistakes pertinent to the topic being taught, but don’t make me watch you troubleshoot your non-relevant computer issues or problems created by your specific preferences (e.g., IDE functionality not working as expected when no specific IDE was prescribed for the tutorial)
4. Don’t make me wait on your slow computer to do something in silence—either teach me something while it’s working or edit the video to remove the lull
5. You knew you were recording your screen. Close your email, chat, and other applications that create notifications before recording. Or at least please don’t check them and respond while recording and not edit it out of the video
6. Stay on topic. I’m watching your video to learn about something specific. A little personality is good, but excessive tangents are often a waste of my time
7. [Specific to YouTube] Don’t block my view of important content with annotations (and ads, if within your control)
8. If you aren’t uploading quality HD recordings, enlarge your font! Don’t make me have to guess what character you typed
9. Have a game plan (i.e., objectives) before hitting the record button
10. Remember that it’s easier to rant and complain than to do something constructive. Thank you for spending your time making tutorial videos. It’s better for you to make videos and commit all my pet peeves listed above than to not make videos at all—don’t let one guy’s rant stop you from sharing your knowledge and experience (but if it helps you, you’re welcome—and you just might gain a new viewer!)14 -
Let me share a piece of advice to entry level devs that are getting ready for job interviews that I wish someone gave to me when I was first looking for work straight out of school. Do not focus making yourself look good to this company by trying to make your resume flashy or trying to oversell yourself. Although its important to present yourself sure, but it should not be the foundation for you to base your interview goals around. Rather focus on the company itself. Find out whether the company itself uses modern technology,practices and upholds to project management and the software development cycle, find out how they work,communicate and develop as a team. Simply put focus on whether they are worth working for instead of looking like your worth being hired. Can they collaborate,communicate and solve problems efficiently. Otherwise you may end up getting hired and hating your job. Just a thought and some advice on my own experiences. Hope it helps someone.3

Psychic readings https://linkedin.com/pulse/... are one of the most mysterious and fascinating areas of the paranormal. This phenomenon has long attracted the attention of both ordinary people and scientists, since it represents the ability to receive information in unusual ways, bypassing the usual five senses.
Psychics, or people with such abilities, claim that they can sense energetic interactions, see objects and events at a distance, read thoughts, obtain information about a person only from his photograph, and so on. One of the most well-known psychic readings is tarot card reading, which allows psychics to predict the future and give advice on decision-making.
There are many theories about how psychic readings work. Some believe that psychics are able to perceive information not only through the usual five senses, but also through the sixth sense - intuition. Others believe that psychic abilities are related to a person's energy fields and aura.
In order to understand this phenomenon, scientists conduct numerous studies and experiments. However, it has not yet been possible to find a scientific explanation for extrasensory abilities. Some experiments show that psychics can detect information that ordinary people cannot see, but this has not yet been scientifically proven.
Many people turn to psychics in search of answers to questions regarding their personal life, career, health and other important aspects. Psychics offer them consultations and help them understand difficult situations, predict the future and help them make important decisions.
However, it is worth remembering that there are many impostors and scammers who try to use the popularity of psychic abilities to deceive. Therefore, it is important to choose trusted specialists and not get hung up on the predictions and advice of psychics, but make decisions independently, based on your own judgment and intuition.
Overall, psychic readings remain a mystery to science and society. Many people are confident in the reality of such abilities, others consider them fiction and deception. However, whether you believe in psychic abilities or not, it is worth recognizing that these paranormal phenomena continue to attract the attention and interest of many people around the world.4 -
Who am I?
Some of you, because of the hyperbolic, outrageous, trollish, and often self-satirical nature of my posts, might doubt me. Thats completely relatable.
Heres the truth:
I was diagnosed in childhood with ADHD, fucking everyone, every male, these days is diagnosed with that. I was diagnosed bipolar. Hell anyone reading my posts could see that from a mile away. I was diagnosed on the borderline personality spectrum. Yeah, I could see that.
I was tested. They said I was in the 98th percentile for clerical ability, not extraordinary but pretty good, mathematical ability a little higher than that. My SAT was 1491. Not yale material, but I coulda been someone.
Over the years I studied a LOT of politics and read a metric fuckton of books. (40+ books over the course of three years).
I predicted every single presidential election since bush juniors second election. Three supreme court picks. Senatorial elections. Congresional elections. More than that.
I have a better analysis track record than some of the multidecade analysts sitting in the fucking NSA.
No I am not shitting you. No I am not exaggerating.
It's about the only claim to fame I get to legitimately make.
People ask me, "then why aren't you famous?"
How do you know I'm not.
Look I'm gonna tell you my actual name.
My real name is Lawrence B. Lindsey
Okay, I'm bullshitting for fun. But words I have written on alt twitter accounts have legitimately come out of presidential hopeful's mouths. No, this I am *not* bullshitting you about.
Imagine that. A guy who lived in his parents attic for five years, writing words that came out of presidential candidates mouths.
At one time I was about as popular and influential as that fuckboy catturd.
yes, really. No I am not fucking joking.
Under normal conditions I wouldn't talk about this or reveal it, because who the fuck cares? I'm just some dude on the internet, drunk, both on alcohol, and the pseudo-anonymous equivalent of bragging rights.
You know how many women I turned down because I could? You know how fucking drunk I am? They say a drunk man's words are a sober man's thoughts. Well, I'm not usually honest like this because the internet is full of false braggarts, and you tell people the truth and they don't fucking believe you.
I swear, it seems like I made some faustian bargain at some time, and can achieve no fame or lasting wealth in my life--to save my life.
Shit, I was talking to a chinese women who ran a bank in china (yes, really), who advised me to buy into bitcoin early on. Didn't have the money to. Woulda been a fucking millionaire if I did.
*Non-obvious* Ideas that major corporations are now persuing? Yeah those were sitting in my card index since the early 2000s.
I helped two people build and sell businesses. One for me tens of thousands. Another for millions. Yes, really. Got zero, and I mean, *zero* credit for it.
Point is, doesn't matter how famous you are, or coulda been, Doesn't matter the ideas you have, or had.
The world doesn't promote runners-up, or hasbeens, or wannabes, or could-bes.
What matters is execution.
If you're wandering through life, wondering when you're lucky break will be, stop. You have to realize, you make your own luck. Recognize the difference between what you can control, and what you can, and work on promoting your own ideas or business or values, instead of other people's dreams.
And for those wondering, yes I am drunk, and no, I ain't fucking kidding you in anything I wrote here.
The most important lesson I learned is this:
First work on your own success, before you work on the success of others.
p.s.
I give surprisingly good advice for someone who doesn't benchmark well on traditional measures of success. I know, even I was shocked when I looked at the statistics.30 -
On the game front, I see so much conflicting advice. "Start getting feedback" as soon as possible. "Donnt soft launch on steam! The algol will wreck you.", "soft launch on itch to get feedback", "dont soft launch on itch!"
"Start marketing today", "focus on influencers", "get to know communities *before* you advertise", "dont get to know communities beforehand if you're just planning on self prompting", "dont self promote".
"CPM is important.", "CPA is important". Etc.
Sounds a lot like "have a bunch of money upfront." The solution is just to succeed from the start! It's so obvious. Just invent the next gta. The next facebook. Get a small loan of 50,000 dollars, or a million. Donate for a year to other kickstarter projects so people will know you and reciprocate! But also dont ebeg!
How about no. How about fuck all this advice by silver spoon assholes that didnt have to work on shoestring budgets. The advice is the equivalent of having a 300 page tonedeaf book, every page blank except page 150, where the words "fuck you. I got mine." Are printed in times new Roman, 14pt font, neatly in the center of the page.
The truth is most of the "indies" already made it in the software industry proper, before switching over. $5k kickstarter videos, with $15k marketing budgets, no doubt funded in part through their own money funneled through services that provide shell donations, because KS is being used as a glorified advertising service. People buying off steam curators for promotions, youtubers making sponsored videos without disclosing they're sponsored. Fake viralility. Fake campaigns. Predetermined success for those who could *already* afford to develop and go commercial without a publisher. And they came into the market and cannibalized the opportunity, raising the bar for everyone that wasnt them. I guess that's actually a good thing, because we wouldnt have half the amazing games we do, and the pressure to produce quality. But then I see fantastic games utterly ignored or flailing in an attempt to compete for eyeballs in an industry frequently dominated by gatekeeping marketeers and influencers, where human grace determines success or complete oblivion. And I'm just disgusted with it.
Also buy my game. Preorder NOW! And you'll get a REAL canvas bag, I'll go to like the goodwill and buy one and screen print the game logo on it or some shit. Buy the special collectors edition and get pictures of my feet. Buy the game of the year edition and get a real gasmask. Preorder now and I'll fucking suck your di k right now. No lie. Preorder the diamond edition RIGHT NOW in the next six minutes and I will send you one hundred thousand dollars in gold plated bottle caps. Limited supply. one million per customer. Offer expires soon. This is not a scam. I repeat. This is NOT a scam.
In other news I'm soft launching Atom Ranger in six months (assuming the nuclear apocalypse hasn't *actually* started by then). Its state of decay and fallout meets rimworld. Build and manage a sprawling base, resolving conflicts, exploring post apocalyptic Colorado and surrounding territories of no-mans-land. Navigate hazardous weather, radioactive terrain, collapsed bridges, dangerous rivers, and deal with cultists, bandits, slavers, and hungry cannibals. Broker peace between not just the factions outside your settlements, but within your base too. Manage conflicts, settle disputes, avert disasters, barter, scavenge, and survive in a fully dynamic world, where buildings slowly crumble, grass and trees sprout up in the road and vacant lots, fires burn out of control, and factions loot, ruin, and takeover settlements. Watch the world and the survivors in it change and survive. Help them to survive, or become a warlord and rule over the wastes.
Lets be honest. It's basically kenshi but less complicated.
If you want to volunteer to test (instead of paying to be a glorified tester, aka "alpha") let me know in the comments.
I'm currently setting up a discord and mailing list.28 -
Development world is always changing and evolving... It changes before you know it...
So, having the ability to quickly adapt and learn is a must for any Developer... And, this is the one thing that I am sure that everyone knows about or heard about..
But, my advice is quite simple:
"Don't rush into participating in a race, just because everyone else is doing so.
The trick is not to move quickly.. But, to move one step at a time, at the pace in which you are at your most comfortable...
It might seem counterintuitive and a contradiction to what I have said earlier.. But, I hope that by the end of this rant, you will be able to understand my perspective..
This advice is especially useful for people still finding and searching for their place in our world..
Charles Darwin, very wisely understood the philosophy behind 'Survival of the Fittest'..
By 'fittest', he didn't refer to the ones considered to be the strongest or having the most intelligence, but the ones that had mastered the ability to adapt to changing circumstances..
Adaptability is important, but not at the cost of understanding and learning about the fundamental pillars on which this world stands..
Don't rush because when you run, your visions starts to become more narrow.. In your pursuit to reach your goal, you lose the ability to look at the macro details surrounding your goal..
Learning new technology is important, but that doesn't mean that you don't learn about various approaches or how to design a more logical or efficient solution...
Refactoring the code, developing good Testing procedures, learning to interact with your fellow developers are as crucial as learning about the changing trends...
Even, in this ever-changing world, understand that some things will always remain the same, like the adrenaline that course through your veins when you finally solve a long-standing problem...
Curiosity, Discovery and Exploration are the key pillars and hence, when we rush in, we might stop exploring and lose curiosity to discover new and exciting ways to reach our goal..
Or, we might also end up losing the drive that grips us and motivates to continue moving forward inspite of the challenges standing between us and our destination..
And, believe me, once you lose this quality, you might still succeed but the contentment and the satisfaction that you feel will be lost..
And, then, you will remain a developer only through your designation... And, that in my personal opinion, the worst punishment.3 -
I just experienced near death because of high blood. Super strong blood pressure. Avoid coffee, playing games, and sleeping very late at night. This is my advice as a survivor developer. I want to share this to help you. For fast deadlines or hard user stories, always negotiate reasonably with your SM or PM or PO or client.
Thank God he have me a 2nd chance at life. Take care of your health. Don't worry about deadlines. Health is more important. Always pray. I deleted all of my games especially my beloved call of duty mobile and clash of clans. I'll forget all games that I know because those contributed to my high blood pressure.
When you have a headache or head pressure or eye twitching . Stop what you are currently doing and relax, measure your blood pressure and contact your family asap. Take it seriously. My wife saved me.10 -
MENTORS - MY STORY (Part III)
The next mentor is my former boss in the previous company I worked.
3.- Manager DJ.
Soon after I joined the company, Manager E.A. left and it was crushing. The next in line joined as a temporal replacement; he was no good.
Like a year later, they hired Manager DJ, a bit older than EA, huge experience with international companies and a a very smart person.
His most valuable characteristic? His ability to listen. He would let you speak and explain everything and he would be there, listening and learning from you.
That humility was impressive for me, because this guy had a lot of experience, yes, but he understood that he was the new guy and he needed to learn what was the current scenario before he could twist anything. Impressive.
We bonded because I was technical lead of one of the dev teams, and he trusted me which I value a lot. He'd ask me my opinion from time to time regarding important decisions. Even if he wouldn't take my advice, he valued the opinion of the developers and that made me trust him a lot.
From him I learned that, no matter how much experience you have in one field, you can always learn from others and if you're new, the best you can do is sit silently and listen, waiting for your moment to step up when necessary, and that could take weeks or months.
The other thing I learned from him was courage.
See, we were a company A formed of the join of three other companies (a, b, c) and we were part of a major group of companies (P)
(a, b and c) used the enterprise system we developed, but internally the system was a bit chaotic, lots of bad practices and very unstable. But it was like that because those were the rules set by company P.
DJ talked to me
- DJ: Hey, what do you think we should do to fix all the problems we have?
- Me: Well, if it were up to me, we'd apply a complete refactoring of the system. Re-engineering the core and reconstruct all modules using a modular structure. It's A LOT of work, A LOT, but it'd be the way.
- DJ: ...
- DJ: What about the guidelines of P?
- Me: Those guidelines are obsolete, and we'd probably go against them. I know it's crazy but you asked me.
Some time later, we talked about it again, and again, and again until one day.
- DJ: Let's do it. Take these 4 developers with you, I rented other office away from here so nobody will bother you with anything else, this will be a semi-secret project. Present me a methodology plan, and a rough estimation. Let's work with weekly advances, and if in three months we have something good, we continue that road, tear everything apart and implement the solution you guys develop.
- Me: Really? That's impressive! What about P?
- DJ: I'll handle them.
The guy would battle to defend us and our work. And we were extremely motivated. We did revolutionize the development processes we had. We reconstructed the entire system and the results were excellent.
I left the company when we were in the last quarter of the development but I'm proud because they're still using our solution and even P took our approach.
Having the courage of going against everyone in order to do the right thing and to do things right was an impressive demonstration of self confidence, intelligence and balls.
DJ and I talk every now and then. I appreciate him a lot.
Thank you DJ for your lessons and your trust.

I am building a website inspired by devrant but have never built a server network before, and as im still a student I have no industry experience to base a design on, so was hoping for any advice on what is important/ what I have fucked up in my plan.
The attached image is my currently planned design. Blue is for the main site, and is a cluster of app servers to handle any incoming requests.
Green is a subdomain to handle images, as I figured it would help with performance to have image uploads/downloads separated from the main webpage content. It also means I can keep cache servers and app servers separated.
Pink is internal stuff for logging and backups and probably some monitoring stuff too.
Purple is databases. One is dedicated for images, that way I can easily back them up or load them to a cache server, and the other is for normal user data and posts etc.
The brown proxy in the middle is sorta an internal proxy which the servers need to authenticate with to connect to, that way I can just open the database to the internal proxy, and deny all other requests, and then I can have as many app servers as I want and as long as they authenticate with the proxy, they can access the database without me changing any firewall rules. The other 2 proxies just distribute requests between the available servers in the pool.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advanced :D

I swear to god, if I read another medium post on how you managed to be focused and productive I will fucking... well... roll my eyes, make a facepalm and rant about it on devRant!
Who gives a shit if I'm unproductive and unfocused?!
Well, look at me now, I'm fucking productive while I write about you, you fucking peace off shit! And guess what? I'm not even using any of your 40 todo apps or time trackers. There is no pomodoro timer next to me or framed quotes from Steve Jobs hanging on the wall. Oh, I must be a fucking genius!
But what if YOU became unproductive?
What will happen when YOU start to procrastinate?
Do you really think the world would care?
Oh, but you are not really a writer are you? you're a developer building your app!?
Well fuck, I guess you're going to change the world than?
It's your big project. Your life's work, your legacy.
Let me remind you...
All apps will be abandoned!
All blog post will be forgotten!
Productive people will die!
Focused people will die!
Enthusiastic bloggers writing about productivity will die!
All CEOs and CTOs will die!
All developers will die!
Steve Jobs is dead!
In x years, you and I will also be dead!
Whatever you do, it's not really that important!
It's really not.
You're not going to change the world.
The world doesn't need another app.
The world doesn't need your advice on how to be productive.
You are not special.
Deal with it!8 -

Communication is IMPORTANT, and the way to approach someone is also IMPORTANT.
I experienced that my colleague is from China, and his English accent is so strong (in the context of not understandable, like the word 'folder' he pronounces it 'foda', and the word 'code' he pronounces it 'korr') that I have to ask him to repeat himself (which sometimes I felt guilty to ask him to repeat for thrice, and I am still not able to understand) or maybe we can do it over text. It is much easier to understand him that way and I can leverage these texts to see a bigger picture of the message.
From this, I realised I need to work more on understanding what he is going to say and what he actually meant.
Any advice for me?9 -
Best advice so far: "KISS: Keep It Simple and Stupid"
That works every time because your design of the code will be understandable. Your code must seldom to be refactored. You aren't that asshole who never comment and document anything. And the most important part: The code works as designed without flaws!4 -
Here comes lots of random pieces of advice...
Ain't no shortcuts.
Be prepared, becoming a good programmer (there are lots of shitty programmers, not so many good ones) takes lots of pain, frustration, and failure. It's going to suck for awhile. There will be false starts. At some point you will question whether you are cut out for it or not. Embrace the struggle -- if you aren't failing, you aren't learning.
Remember that in 2021 being a programmer is just as much (maybe even moreso) about picking up new things on the fly as it is about your crystalized knowledge. I don't want someone who has all the core features of some language memorized, I want someone who can learn new things quickly. Everything is open book all the time. I have to look up pretty basic stuff all the time, it's just that it takes me like twelve seconds to look it up and digest it.
Build, build, build, build, build. At least while you are learning, you should always be working on a project. Don't worry about how big the project is, small is fine.
Remember that programming is a tool, not the end goal in and of itself. Nobody gives a shit how good a carpenter is at using some specialized saw, they care about what the carpenter can build with that specialized saw.
Plan your build. This is a VERY important part of the process that newer devs/programmers like to skip. You are always free to change the plan, but you should have a plan going on. Don't store your plan in your head. If you plan exists only in your head you are doing it wrong. Write that shit down! If you create a solid development process, the cognitive overhead for any project goes way down.
Don't fall into the trap of comparing yourself to others, especially to the experts you are learning from. They are good because they have done the thing that you are struggling with at least a thousand times.
Don't fall into the trap of comparing yourself today to yourself yesterday. This will make it seem like you haven't learned anything and aren't on the move. Compare yourself to yourself last week, last month, last year.
Have experienced programmers review your code. Don't be afraid to ask, most of us really really enjoy this (if it makes you feel any better about the "inconvenience", it will take a mid-level waaaaay less time to review your code that it took for you to write it, and a senior dev even less time than that). You will hate it, it will suck having someone seem like they are just ripping your code apart, but it will make you so much better so much faster than just relying on your own internal knowledge.
When you start to be able to put the pieces together, stay humble. I've seen countless devs with a year of experience start to get a big head and talk like they know shit. Don't keep your mouth closed, but as a newer dev if you are talking noise instead of asking questions there is no way I will think you are ready to have the Jr./Associate/Whatever removed from your title.
Don't ever. Ever. Ever. Criticize someone else's preferred tools. Tooling is so far down the list of what makes a good programmer. This is another thing newer devs have a tendency to do, thinking that their tool chain is the only way to do it. Definitely recommend to people alternatives to check out. A senior dev using Notepad++, a terminal window, and a compiler from 1977 is probably better than you are with the newest shiniest IDE.
Don't be a dick about terminology/vocabulary. Different words mean different things to different people in different organizations. If what you call GNU/Linux somebody else just calls Linux, let it go man! You understand what they mean, and if you don't it's your job to figure out what they mean, not tell them the right way to say it.
One analogy I like to make is that becoming a programmer is a lot like becoming a chef. You don't become a chef by following recipes (i.e. just following tutorials and walk-throughs). You become a chef by learning about different ingredients, learning about different cooking techniques, learning about different styles of cuisine, and (this is the important part), learning how to put together ingredients, techniques, and cuisines in ways that no one has ever showed you about before. -

I didn’t posted for a while cause I didn’t have anything interesting to say. My job is fine, got no major problems in life, everything looks good so I started thinking about the fucking civilization future stuff.
Either I’m to old or we’ll end up back in ancient Egypt one day.
The knowledge is still not moved from old to young, not categorized and protected well enough and we’re busy fighting with each other about nothing important. We’re carrying about stuff that have nothing to do with our lives. All those fucking movements make world worse place then it was. Just marginalize those that are good and give more powers to those who shout more and have more money.
As a result I think in a matter of couple generations there won’t be anyone who could replace grandfathers keeping this machine alive and future people will end up looking at pictures and videos of ancient stuff that nobody is capable of doing cause nobody understands it.
This super friendly human politics of the world like any other politics will make people unfriendly and not able to communicate with each other - stupid and unable to think reasonably.
My advice I also took as a mantra, turn off the internet and read or listen to the books - at least one book a month is your goal.
My last book I listened to was about history of gender and you know what ? I learned that clown fish can change gender when it’s young. I learned more from listening to this book for 8 hours then from a year reading stupid articles in the internet. I understand what gender is, what are the problems and all the fucking history of it staring in 1800-something or maybe even earlier. Maybe because there is still lots of difficulty to write something interesting that is more than 1 page of paper long. Most of stuff in the internet weather it’s an article or video have only 1 page amount of content. This content is none, it have no value to the community. You won’t learn anything from it. If you want to learn something read book cause making good quality book is very expensive and takes lots of person life and self esteem. Probably one book takes more time then most of influencers spend making their stupid pictures and stuff like that.
That’s sad truth of our times. We turned technology made for knowledge exchange to advertising tv - again. -
A loooong time ago...
I've started my first serious job as a developer. I was young yet enthusiastic as well as a kind of a greenhorn. First time working in a business, working with a team full of experienced full-lowered ultra-seniors which were waiting to teach me the everything about software engineering.
Kind of.
Beside one senior which was the team lead as well there were two other devs. One of them was very experienced and a pretty nice guy, I could ask him anytime and he would sit down with me a give me advice. I've learned a lot of him.
Fast forward three months (yes, three months).
I was not that full kind of greenhorn anymore and people started to give me serious tasks. I had some experience in doing deployments and stuff from my other job as a sysadmin before so I was soon known as the "deployment guy", setting up deployments for our projects the right way and monitoring as well as executing them. But as it should be in every good team we had to share our knowledge so one can be on vacation or something and another colleague was able to do the task as well.
So now we come to the other teammate. The one I was not talking about till now. And that for a reason.
He was very nice too and had a couple of years as a dev on his CV, but...yeah...like...
When I switched some production systems to Linux he had to learn something about Linux. Everytime he encountered an error message he turned around and asked me how to fix it. Even. For. The. Simplest. Error. He. Could. Google. Up.
I mean okay, when one's new to a system it's not that easy, but when you have an error message which prints out THE SOLUTION FOR THE ERROR and he asks me how to fix it...excuse me?
This happened over 30 times.
A. Week.
Later on I had to introduce him to the deployment workflow for a project, so he could eventually deploy the staging environment and the production environment by hisself.
I introduced him. Not for 10 minutes. I explained him the whole workflow and the very main techniques and tools used for like two hours. Every then and when I stopped and asked him if he had any questions. He had'nt! Wonderful!
Haha. Oh no.
So he had to do his first production deployment. I sat by his side to monitor everything. He did well. One or two questions but he did well.
The same when he did his second prod deploy. Everythings fine.
And then. It. Frikkin. Begins.
I was working on the project, did some changes to the code. Okay, deploy it to dev, time for testing.
Hm.
Error checking out git. Okay, awkward. Got to investigate...
On the dev server were some files changed. Strange. The repo was all up to date. But these changes seemed newer because they were fixing at least one bug I was working on.
This doubles the strangeness.
I want over to my colleague's desk.
I asked him about any recent changes to the codebase.
"Yeah, there was a bug you were working on right? But the ticket was open like two days so I thought I'll fix it"
What the Heck dude, this bug was not critical at all and I had other tasks which were more important. Okay, but what about the changed files?
"Oh yeah, I could not remember the exact deployment steps (hint from the author: I wrote them down into our internal Wiki, he wrote them done by hisself when introducing him and after all it's two frikkin commands), so I uploaded them via FTP"
"Uhm... that's not how we do it buddy. We have to follow the procedure to avoid..."
"The boss said it was fine so I uploaded the changes directly to the production servers. It's so much easier via FTP and not this deployment crap, sorry to say that"
You. Did. What?
I could not resist and asked the boss about this. But this had not Effect at all, was the long-time best-buddy-schmuddy-friend of the boss colleague's father.
So in the end I sat there reverting, committing and deploying.
Yep
It's soooo much harder this deployment crap.
Years later, a long time after I quit the job and moved to another company, I get to know that the colleague now is responsible for technical project management.
Hm.
Project Management.
Karma's a bitch, right? -
OK trust me, DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO. NOT. TRY TO DO ANYTHING ON A COMPUTER WHEN YOU HAVE SMALLER SIBLINGS, my baby brother has broken my PC monitor, my laptop screen, my phone, and hell, I'm desperate to the point of jailbreaking my Nintendo switch, witch he almost broke already, I'm typing this on my school laptop BTW.9

Idk despite whatever my resume may suggest, I think I'm still a Junior. Dunno if that'd ever change tbh. I mean, that's the downside of "cutting edge tech", right?
I don't have any advice.
Everything important has already been said by somebody out there.7 -
Shady business practices. You see a lot of stories of people getting fucked over on here. Companies giving applicants a "coding test" to get work done for free, or guys promising to pay when the work is done(and then bailing), deserve to be thrown screaming from helicopters.
Some quick advice for people starting out:
1. If it's important, get it in writing. Promises are worth precisely dick, unless it's legally binding.
2. Exercise caution in interviews. The shadier companies know a lot of applicants are desperate, and they take advantage of that fact if they're allowed to.
Not sure if I'm rambling at this point, but fuck it. 🤣 -
I keep posting that I need job and I appreciate the feedback but I feel just saying that makes it seem like I'm not trying.
Like. I legit don't know. Could it be my cv that's a dud? Thinking of paying a resume writing thing
Cause I'm actually trying hard af to learn new stuff as well keep doing what I'm good at.
I got one interview in a year and even then they didn't gimme the chance to show tech side. It's soo tilting.
I'm actually competent though inexperienced I think.
Any advice or questions please. I legit need to sort this out this year. Like its very important that I do.
Help.13 -
I HAVE A VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION.
i need advice.
is it better that i study during the day for college until 12pm (midnight) and then work on my own project from 12pm till 4-5am, go to sleep and wake up around 9-10am so thats 4-7h of sleep each day. the only exception would be tuesday bc i gotta wake up for college at 6am.
so i would be working on my project 6 days for about 4-5h per week.
i plan to do this for 2 months.
so: day shift - college study
night shift - my work
please help me organize my time.
now, im thinking about long term effects on this. its going to be pain. but i am in pain each day so i no longer feel pain. i will be exhausted as fuck. i am fully conscious of what is awaiting for me if i decide to do this.
here is my question. am i going to get a burnout from this? am i going to look physically different in 2 months (in a bad way)? am i going to be mentally worse? am i going to get really skinny? this would basically be a work of 19-20h for 6 days per week for 2 months. that is approximately 114-120h work week minus tuesday.
i have to be mentally equipped for this so i plan to do home workouts in night shift session in order to prevent burnouts. I'll do walks/jogs too in day shift for mental cooldowns. the most important thing for me is NOT TO GET A BURNOUT AT ALL COSTS DURING THIS PERIOD OF TIME NO EXCEPTIONS!!!
i need serious advice on how to do this right AND AVOID BURNOUTS AT ALL COST.
i MUST stay operational mentally for the next 2 months.
please list the things i should DO and NOT do so this can be achievable.13 -
Serverless and death of Programming?!
_TL;DR_
I hate serverless at work, love it at home, what's your advice?
- Is this the way things be from now on, suck it up.
- This will mature soon and Code will be king again.
- Look for legacy code work on big Java monolith or something.
- Do front-end which is not yet ruined.
- Start my own stuff.
_Long Rant_
Once one mechanic told me "I become mechanic to escape electrical engineering, but with modern cars...". I'm having similar feelings about programming now.
_Serverless Won_
All of the sudden everyone is doing Serverless, so I looked into it too, accidentally joined the company that does enterprise scale Serverless mostly.
First of all, I like serverless (AWS Lambda in specific) and what it enables - it makes 100% sense and 100% business sense for 80% of time.
So all is great? Not so much... I love it as independent developer, as it enables me to quickly launch products I would have been hesitant due to effort required before. However I hate it in my work - to be continued bellow...
_I'm fake engineer_
I love programming! I love writing code. I'm not really an engineer in the sense that I don't like hustle with tools and spending days fixing obscure environment issues, I rather strive for clean environment where there's nothing between me and code. Of course world is not perfect and I had to tolerate some amounts of hustle like Java and it's application servers, JVM issues, tools, environments... JS tools (although pain is not even close to Java), then it was Docker-ization abuse everywhere, but along the way it was more or less programming at the center. Code was the king, devOps and business skills become very important to developers but still second to code. Distinction here is not that I can't or don't do engineering, its that it requires effort, while coding is just natural thing that I can do with zero motivation.
_Programming is Dead?!_
Why I hate Serverless at work? Because it's a mess - I had a glimpse of this mess with microservices, but this is way worse...
On business/social level:
- First of all developers will be operations now and it's uphill battle to push for separation on business level and also infrastructure specifics are harder to isolate. I liked previous dev-devops collaboration before - everyone doing the thing that are better at.
- Devs now have to be good at code, devOps and business in many organisations.
- Shift of power balance - Code is no longer the king among developers and I'm seeing it now. Code quality drops, junior devs have too hard of the time to learn proper coding practices while AWS/Terraform/... is the main productivity factors. E.g. same code guru on code reviews in old days - respectable performer and source of Truth, now - rambling looser who couldn't get his lambda configured properly.
On not enjoying work:
- Lets start with fact - Code, Terraform, AWS, Business mess - you have to deal with all of it and with close to equal % amount of time now, I want to code mostly, at least 50% of time.
- Everything is in the air ("cloud computing" after all) - gone are the days of starting application and seeing results. Everything holds on assumptions that will only be tested in actual environment. Zero feedback loop - I assume I get this request/SQS message/..., I assume I have configured all the things correctly in sea of Terraform configs and modules from other repos - SQS queues, environment variables... I assume I taken in consideration tens of different terraform configurations of other lambdas/things that might be affected...
It's a such a pleasure now, after the work to open my code editor and work on my personal React.js app...2 -

Hello all, I'm not too experienced with open sourcing code, so here is my first attempt with a small script that initiates a phone call using php.
If someone has the time, please let me know what you think, any important things I'm missing or any advice you might have.
Thank you devRanters!

This is more of an advice seeking rant. I've recently been promoted to Team Leader of my team but mostly because of circumstances. The previous team leader left for a start-up and I've been somehow the acting Scrum Master of the team for the past months (although our company sucks at Scrum generally speaking) and also having the most time in the company. However I'm still the youngest I'm my team so managing the actual team feels a bit weird and also I do not consider myself experienced enough to be a Technical lead but we don't have a different position for that.
Below actions happen in the course of 2-3 months.
With all the things above considered I find myself in a dire situation, a couple of months ago there were several Blocker bugs opened from the Clients side / production env related to one feature, however after spending about a month or so on trying to investigate the issues we've come to the conclusion that it needs to be refactorised as it's way too bad and it can't be solved (as a side note this issue has also been raised by a former dev who left the company). Although it was not part of the initial upcoming version release it was "forcefully" introduced in the plan and we took out of the scope other things but was still flagged as a potential risk. But wait..there's more, this feature was part of a Java microservice (the whole microservice basically) and our team is mostly made of JS, just one guy who actually works as a Java dev (I've only done one Java course during uni but never felt attracted to it). I've not been involved in the initial planning of this EPIC, my former TL was an the Java guy. Now during this the company decides that me and my TL were needed for a side project, so both of us got "pulled out" of the team and move there but we've also had to "manage" the team at the same time. In the end it's decided that since my TL will leave and I will take leadership of the team, I get "released" from the side project to manage the team. I'm left with about 3 weeks to slam dunk the feature.. but, I'm not a great leader for my team nor do I have the knowledge to help me teammate into fixing this Java MS, I do go about the normal schedule about asking him in the daily what is he working on and if he needs any help, but I don't really get into much details as I'm neither too much in sync with the feature nor with the technical part of Java. And here we are now in the last week, I've had several calls with PSO from the clients trying to push me into giving them a deadline on when will it be fixed that it's very important for the client to get this working in the next release and so on, however I do not hold an answer to that. I've been trying to explain to them that this was flagged as a risk and I can't guarantee them anything but that didn't seem to make them any happier. On the other side I feel like this team member has been slacking it a lot, his work this week would barely sum up a couple of hours from my point of view as I've asked him to push the branch he's been working on and checked his code changes. I'm a bit anxious to confront him however as I feel I haven't been on top of his situation either, not saying I was uninvolved but I definetly could have been a better manager for him and go into more details about his daily work and so on.
All in all there has been mistakes on all levels(maybe not on PSO as they can't really be held accountable for R&D inability to deliver stuff, but they should be a little more understandable at the very least) and it got us into a shitty situation which stresses me out and makes me feel like I've started my new position with a wrong step.
I'm just wondering if anyone has been in similar situations and has any tips or words of wisdom to share. Or how do you guys feel about the whole situation, am I just over stressing it? Did I get a good analysis, was there anything I could have done better? I'm open for any kind of feedback.2 -
Finding it hard to focus. I'm into UI, backend, frontend, iOS... Exploring FP. We've just had our first child and I need to put my time and energy into what will a) provide healthy financial remuneration b) be more enjoyable than frustrating c) be relatively futureproof (if that's even possible). For some reason I have a huge distaste for JavaScript (as an ecosystem) which has led me to look into Elm. I've enjoyed Ruby but something in my mind tells me Functional programming is more logical for me. It's a whole new approach and skill to level-up on. I love programming my own back-ends, but for me, design is so important and I want to be part of the visual, tangible part that people interact with. I'm a one-man operation which means I do design, full stack Development, client liaison, financials, client acquisition. Freelancing is a double edged sword - I don't know when the next project will come, but I also need to focus on the projects I have without taking too much on. At times I think employment would be good, despite having it's on drawbacks which I read about repeatedly on here. Any advice?1

So the saga of broken fucking everything continues at work, and I'm managing it, effectively, and doing it correctly on the first go-round. It's a long process though, because the two retards who preceded me were equally inept for completely different, yet equally disruptive and destructive reasons. The first dude was just plain psychotic, probably still is. I'd post some of his code, but I don't want anyone's face to melt off like those Nazi dudes at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark. I can handle it because I'm constantly inebriated, which is not as fun as it sounds. If you have to ask yourself if you can handle it, you probably aren't, unless you've had to Uber to/from work due to still being fucking drunk. Anyway, enough about that, and it was only like twice. The rest of the times, I was more blazed than Jerry Garcia at a weed smoking contest. Moving along.
UPS shipping labels broke two weeks ago, I fixed it, but these fucking 10xers jointly decided to not only never implement anything resembling error handling, other than EMPTY GOD DAMN "try/catch"es (empty catch, wow so efficient), and instead of using COMMENTS, which I know are a new thing, they'd wrap blocks of code in something like: if 1 = 0 {} FUCK YOU DICKFACES. As I was saying before I got emotional again, they tied the success to all kinds of unrelated, irrelevant shit. I'm literally needle/haystacking my way through the entire 200GB codebase, ALONE, trying to find all the borked things. Helpfully, my phone is ringing all the time from customer service, complaining about things that are either nothing to do with the site, or due to user stupidity, 75% of the time.
A certain department at my company relies on some pretty specific documents to do their job, and these documents are/were generated from data in the database. So until I can find and fix all of the things, I've diverted my own attention as much as possible to the rapid implementation of a report generation microservice so that no one elses work is further disrupted while I continue my cursed easter egg hunt from fucking hell.
After a little more than two days, I'm about to lauch a standalone MS to handle the reports, and it's unfortunately more complicated than I'd like, because it requires a certain library that isn't available on Winblows, so I've dockerized the application. Anyway, just after lunch, I've finished my final round of tests, and I'm about ready to begin migrating it to the server and setting up (shitty fucking shit) IIS to serve it appropriately. At this point, this particular report has been unavailable by web for about 8 days.
A little after lunch, and with no forewarning of any kind, the manager of managers runs upstairs and screams at me to "work faster" and that "this needs to be back online RIGHT NOW", but I also know that this individual is going to throw a fit if things on this pdf aren't a pixel perfect match. So I just say "that's some amazing advice, I wish I'd had the foresight to just do it better and work faster". Silence for a good five seconds, then I follow up with "please leave and let me get back to my work". At that moment from around the corner, my "supervisor" suddenly, magically even, remembers that he has had the ability to print this crucial, amazingly super fucking important document all along, despite me directly asking him a week ago, and he prints it and takes it where it needs to go. In the time that it takes him to go to that other department and return, I deploy my service.
I spent the rest of the day browsing indeed and linkedin jobs, but damn this market is kinda weird right now, yeah?2 -
If there's something I fucking hate with all my goddamned soul is when you post something online and people get in their fucking high horse and judge you or tell you what to do
Like I understand if you're talking shit about people in the same community, then if someone tells you you're an idiot, I get it.
But if you're ranting about someone off site, then why judge this person? What's the damage being caused to you or the site?
For example, let's say I rant about my wife and the things that annoy me about her, and I use some colorful language to get it off my chest.
There's always one motherfucker, one stupid piece of shit that says something out of line.
In general it's one of these things:
* "wow, you need to calm down, you clearly treat her like shit, she is better than you*
YOU IGNORANT PIECE OF DOGSHIT. DO YOU HAVE CAMERAS IN MY HOUSE AS TO ASSUME THAT I TALK TO HER IN THE SAME MANNER AS I DID IN THIS POST?
YOU GULLIBLE SHIT EATER.
OF FUCKING COURSE I DON'T TALK TO HER LIKE THIS. I'M NOT AN ASSHOLE OR A MONSTER. I AM JUST R-A-N-T-I-N-G.
AND I RANT IN THIS MANNER SO AS TO GET IT OFF MY CHEST AND NOT FIGHT WITH HER. AND IT TENDS TO WORK. DOES IT REALLY NEED TO BE EXPLAINED?
Jaysus fucking christ. These people actually have the imagination of a fish, they can't fucking connect the dots.
Judging someone online is an egotistical thing. People like to judge others because of that morality high. It's the snack of the morally lazy.
Repeat with me: "I am flawed too, I have problems too. I should never judge others easily, let alone without full fucking context".
* "op, you should do <terrible advice>"
these ones are better, because they are trying to help, but still annoying as fuck.
they come in two forms:
old smug and condescending washed up idiots who overrate their life lessons and think they are applicable to every person A PRIORI.
yeah, fuck case by case analysis, these dinosaurs think they're the wise elders of the village.
Age does not immediately mean your advices are valid, your advices are valid on the sole merit of being valid by themselves.
I don't give 2 fucks if you're 60 or 120. If your advices are bullshit, please spare me the idiocy and the lack of case analysis.
I had old people tell me "trust me kid, happy wife, happy life" wtf is that shit? MY WIFE IS NOT YOUR WIFE.
YOU DON'T KNOW MY WIFE. MY WIFE IS ACTUALLY COOL, BUT SHE COULD BE AN ACTUAL PSYCHO AND I COULD BE OMITTING THAT FROM MY POST.
THEREFORE, HAPPY WIFE HAPPY LIFE IS A TERRIBLE THING TO SAY.
JUST STFU.
This reminds of that disgusting reddit post where a father asked advice on /r/relationships about her wife, and people told him "dude, duh, divorce her".
Guess what, she ends up murdering both of her children.
You would think such post would serve a lesson as to be careful giving advice online. But no, people think they're fucking dr phil or something with EXTREMELY LITTLE case knowledge.
People need to talk a bit less and listen a whole lot more.
You want to know how to help a person who is expressing problems?
You want to know how to be REALLY conpassionate?
Just listen. You can give minimal advice, but listening is the most important, with some occasional "i feel you man".
Everytime a journalist asks a suicide disuader what do they do, they always say the same " i just listen to their problems".
ITS NOT FUCKING ROCKET SCIENCE FOLKS. YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW TO BE A GOOD PERSON? CLOSE THE MOUTH AND TAKE THE WAX OUTTA YA EARS.
There's also the younger ones who think they can help when they don't even have no experience at all.
This is being naive, but I Iike that more than the smugness of old people.12 -
For coding advice
Don't stop thinking
Keep asking how and why a thing works
Learn the logic
Pick any one language
Write some code, do mistake, fix, learn and repeat
Do keep a balance of coding and real life ,playing games are necessary
Do exercise as well....
Maybe some more things we can , but most important is
Do what you love not what others love.
It's your life live and code your way... -
I'm finishing my secondary school in a few months and I'm currently unsure what exactly to do after school.
I'm pretty sure I want to become a software developer (maybe frontend UX/UI focused) already but I'm unsure what path to pursue.
As I live in Germany I have the options of either vocational training or studying at a University.
I'm pretty fed up with theoretic work and school right now so I'm tending towards vocational training as it incorporates one or two days of school with working in a company for the rest of the week.
The issue is that I will complete my A levels and therefore be eligible for university education in most relevant courses and have the feeling of wasting possible success in my future career (and maybe life experiences) if I just do the
vocational training.
As most developers here have a long experience as devs I'd like to ask you for advice.
Would you suggest studying something like applied computer science etc. to achieve a successful software developer career and higher wages or is experience more important than higher formal education at university for a developer?4 -
[ADVICE NEEDED]
I'm just going to graduate, and I got a job as S/W engineer(trainee) in a small (500 odd employees) company, which uses salesforce, SAP and sharepoint technologies! They are most probably gonna put me in salesforce or SAP. Is it good enough for `me`(read my background), I'm kind of confused, should I go for higher studies?
BACKGROUND:
very average student, but swift at learning technologies, never really got interested in competitive (otherwise I had a real good chance in top companies), I kind of have good IT skills - proficient in python and angularJS, but recently I have got into ML and done some projects!
Okay here's the part, I know it's important for a fresher to be good in data structures, I'm indeed good in parts which I have used! I haven't used AVL tree in any of my projects so I don't know, nor I have ever used bitwise ops!
I think I want to get into roots of ML (some people say I'm fickle but IDC), I think if I take the above job I may loose my interests or may not have time, Please advice.
(sorry for the tags but I need advice from people for all these fields)10 -
The following piece of advice will be for those aspiring for an IT service desk position:
When companies are looking to hire service desk agents, they're primarily looking for socially skilled people with strong communicative skills, rather than primarily technically skilled people. When I first joined the IT world, I went on different interviews for that position and across all of them there was one truth: all the interviewers were eyeballs-focused on my social and communication skills and a mere thin layer of technical skills was required (depending on how technical the service desk). In fact, I immediately got aggressively dismissed twice for two of those when I filled in a Myers-Briggs personality test according to my Sheldon-type personality (selfish, condescending etc). Conversely, when I applied for a new position and I faked that test into answering everything focused positively on the social aspect, I was an immediate top candidate.
Here's a definition from the ITIL Foundation course, chapter Service Management: Because of how lateral the function of the service desk has become today (not only used to solve technical issues, but also company-wide issues), the most important and valued skills when hiring a service desk agent are fully focused on empathy and soft skills and none of those are technical skills. This is because the service desk has people that are the front window of your company and thus you can't make social mistakes as to protect your company's reputation. That risk has to be minimized and you need the ideal people. The people who in fact solve the technical problems are behind a back-office and they are contacted by the service desk agents.
In the beginning, when I did my first service desk job, I also thought: "Oh, I'm going to have to convince them I'm this technical wizard". In the end I got hired for being able to explain technology in human language and because in the interview I successfully communicated and explained ideas to both the team manager and the CEO, not because I knew what goes on inside a computer. This is a very important distinction.
My friends have also been in service desk positions and ironically they were the most successful when they were empathetic slimeballs (saying: "of course, anything for you" while not meaning it, constantly making jokes), rather than people with integrity (those got fired for telling the customer they were wrong while being unfriendly).
I hope this helps.8 -
Hi So I need some solid advice from you all wonderful people.
I think i am now ready to look into job side of this world, but have lots of doubts , read my story.
I have been learning android for last 2 years. Most of the time i have been trying to understand how stuff works in android , but i have also gained a few other skills ( python programming, kotlin/flutter basics data analysis basics, testing, some graphic designing, aweful web dev ,etc). But i really want to work with Android. I don't have any specific Salary figure in mind, but i guess my knowledge is better or atleast par with most of the good android developers.
So i want to know how is this fresher/placement thingy work?
1.) GETTING KNOWN? : How can i make some good android based company aware that I am available for hiring? Should i start emailing every android related company that i know of? Should i start listing my profile on recruitment sites like linkedin or internshala? This year it is being said that companies will come for placements. From the status of my college, they are going to give me way to less $ , nd i know am not going to like any of them, but i guess i have to sit for them too.
2.INTERVIEW OR DIRECT PLACEMENTS? A little pre-context: i am currently starting my 4th year in clg. Afaik , 4th year isnt that strict and their can be leniency in terms of attendance. But my college is a place full of political cun*s in the name of directors and HODs and I don't know if they are again going to enforce the old 75% mandatory criteria. Plus if the company is from a different state/country , then my attendance would definitely not suffice.
So mainly i am unsure if somehow a company hires me, i would be able to start immediately. I heard that there are interviews for job recruitment after which the candidate is binded with an agreement to do some months training followed by permanent working after college completion.
This type of agreement is very much suitable for me, since from what my friend tells me, trainings can be lenient and understanding regarding exam preparations nd stuff.
So what do company usually chooses? Binding a fresher on immediate working basis or do they consider graduate completion?
Also, i suck at competitive coding. Do i need to polish myself on that or some company is willing to give me chance on the basis of my other skills 🙈(okay, no kidding , that's a serious question. I need to either work on getting better in competitive or build more apps based on that)
3.) ANDROID OR EVERYTHING? From what i have heard, working as a professional fresher is more like being an allrounder than being a domain specialist. But as i already stated, i really dig android and that's no small framework. I may di other stuff too, but won't interest me nd my output might be less efficient than expected.
So freshers can really be asked to do any stuff? Or can i still be in the area i like being into?
4.) COMPANY OR START-UP? Yeah, this is a general debate starter. Ignoring the business side of the conversation ( job safety vs more salary, experience, etc) the thing that's most important for me is the presence of a team. I want someone to assign me a task, whose vision i could follow, from whom i could learn, and some other people who are supportive and doing the same amount / similar work that am doing . This is so much import8 for me that i can easily ignore other factors for a better team. I once took a call from a startup ceo who hired me, a 2 month old android beginner at that time, as the "lead android developer"
But if am being on a team where i am supposed to do any random stuff that is assigned, then obviously this whole point of "visionary, helpful leader, guiding team, "etc goes moot9 -

Located at 133 Spencer St, South Bunbury WA 6230, we offer personalized physiotherapy services to address a wide range of musculoskeletal concerns, ensuring that you can return to an active, pain-free lifestyle.
Lower Back Muscles: Strengthening and Stabilizing for Better Health
Your lower back muscles play a crucial role in supporting your spine, stabilizing your posture, and allowing for movement. Weak or strained lower back muscles can lead to discomfort, reduced mobility, and an increased risk of injury. At Aspire Physiotherapy Bunbury, we specialize in assessing and treating conditions related to lower back muscle pain, stiffness, and weakness.
Our physiotherapists will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan focused on strengthening and stabilizing the muscles of the lower back. We offer a variety of exercises designed to engage and strengthen key muscle groups such as the abdominals, glutes, and lower back muscles. By improving the strength and endurance of these muscles, we help you reduce pain, improve posture, and prevent future back problems.
Piriformis Stretch: Relieving Tightness and Discomfort
The piriformis muscle is located deep in the buttock region and plays an important role in stabilizing the hip joint. However, when the piriformis muscle becomes tight or inflamed, it can lead to discomfort, pain, and even sciatica-like symptoms. This is commonly known as piriformis syndrome, which can cause pain in the buttocks, hips, or down the leg.
At Aspire Physiotherapy Bunbury, we provide specialized piriformis stretches to help alleviate tightness, relieve pain, and improve flexibility in the hip area. Our physiotherapists will guide you through safe and effective stretching techniques that target the piriformis muscle and surrounding areas. By incorporating piriformis stretches into your routine, you can reduce discomfort, improve mobility, and prevent future flare-ups.
Back Support: Choosing the Right Tools for Recovery
Back support plays a crucial role in relieving pain and preventing further injury, especially when recovering from a back strain or managing a chronic condition. Whether you're dealing with lower back pain, sciatica, or simply need extra support during physical activities, Aspire Physiotherapy Bunbury can help you find the best back support options for your needs.
Our physiotherapists assess your condition and recommend the most appropriate back support devices, such as braces or ergonomic supports, that can help you maintain proper posture, reduce strain on the spine, and improve overall comfort. Additionally, we provide guidance on the proper use of these supports and how to incorporate them into your daily routine for maximum benefit.

9 Ways to Improve Your Website in 2020
Online customers are very picky these days. Plenty of quality sites and services tend to spoil them. Without leaving their homes, they can carefully probe your company and only then decide whether to deal with you or not. The first thing customers will look at is your website, so everything should be ideal there.
Not everyone succeeds in doing things perfectly well from the first try. For websites, this fact is particularly true. Besides, it is never too late to improve something and make it even better.
In this article, you will find the best recommendations on how to get a great website and win the hearts of online visitors.
Take care of security
It is unacceptable if customers who are looking for information or a product on your site find themselves infected with malware. Take measures to protect your site and visitors from new viruses, data breaches, and spam.
Take care of the SSL certificate. It should be monitored and updated if necessary.
Be sure to install all security updates for your CMS. A lot of sites get hacked through vulnerable plugins. Try to reduce their number and update regularly too.
Ride it quick
Webpage loading speed is what the visitor will notice right from the start. The war for milliseconds just begins. Speeding up a site is not so difficult. The first thing you can do is apply the old proven image compression. If that is not enough, work on caching or simplify your JavaScript and CSS code. Using CDN is another good advice.
Choose a quality hosting provider
In many respects, both the security and the speed of the website depend on your hosting provider. Do not get lost selecting the hosting provider. Other users share their experience with different providers on numerous discussion boards.
Content is king
Content is everything for the site. Content is blood, heart, brain, and soul of the website and it should be useful, interesting and concise. Selling texts are good, but do not chase only the number of clicks. An interesting article or useful instruction will increase customer loyalty, even if such content does not call to action.
Communication
Broadcasting should not be one-way. Make a convenient feedback form where your visitors do not have to fill out a million fields before sending a message. Do not forget about the phone, and what is even better, add online chat with a chatbot and\or live support reps.
Refrain from unpleasant surprises
Please mind, self-starting videos, especially with sound may irritate a lot of visitors and increase the bounce rate. The same is true about popups and sliders.
Next, do not be afraid of white space. Often site owners are literally obsessed with the desire to fill all the free space on the page with menus, banners and other stuff. Experiments with colors and fonts are rarely justified. Successful designs are usually brilliantly simple: white background + black text.
Mobile first
With such a dynamic pace of life, it is important to always keep up with trends, and the future belongs to mobile devices. We have already passed that line and mobile devices generate more traffic than desktop computers. This tendency will only increase, so adapt the layout and mind the mobile first and progressive advancement concepts.
Site navigation
Your visitors should be your priority. Use human-oriented terms and concepts to build navigation instead of search engine oriented phrases.
Do not let your visitors get stuck on your site. Always provide access to other pages, but be sure to mention which particular page will be opened so that the visitor understands exactly where and why he goes.
Technical audit
The site can be compared to a house - you always need to monitor the performance of all systems, and there is always a need to fix or improve something. Therefore, a technical audit of any project should be carried out regularly. It is always better if you are the first to notice the problem, and not your visitors or search engines.
As part of the audit, an analysis is carried out on such items as:
● Checking robots.txt / sitemap.xml files
● Checking duplicates and technical pages
● Checking the use of canonical URLs
● Monitoring 404 error page and redirects
There are many tools that help you monitor your website performance and run regular audits.
Conclusion
I hope these tips will help your site become even better. If you have questions or want to share useful lifehacks, feel free to comment below.

It’s not just about your current monthly payment. A home loan calculator also shows you the total cost of the loan over its lifetime, including the principal and interest. This can help you compare different loan terms and decide whether a shorter or longer-term loan is right for you.
Make Informed Decisions:
By using a home loan calculator, you can see exactly how different interest rates and down payment amounts affect your loan. This helps you make smart decisions about choosing a lender, negotiating terms, and determining how much you should put down on your new home.
Save Time and Stress:
Having access to a home loan calculator saves you the hassle of manual calculations or relying on estimates. The tool provides quick, accurate results that allow you to move forward with confidence.
How to Use a Home Loan Calculator
Using a home loan calculator is simple and straightforward. Here’s how you can calculate your monthly mortgage payment:
Enter Loan Amount:
This is the total amount you plan to borrow for your home. It’s usually the purchase price of the home minus your down payment.
Interest Rate:
Input the interest rate for your loan. This rate can vary depending on the type of loan and your creditworthiness.
Loan Term:
Choose the length of your loan, typically 15, 20, or 30 years. The longer the loan term, the lower your monthly payment will be, but you’ll pay more in interest over the life of the loan.
Down Payment:
The more money you put down upfront, the smaller the loan amount will be, reducing your monthly payment. Most homebuyers make a down payment of 20%, but it can vary.
Additional Costs:
Be sure to account for other costs, such as property taxes, homeowner’s insurance, and private mortgage insurance (PMI). These costs are often rolled into your monthly mortgage payment.
Once you input these details, the calculator will give you an estimate of your monthly payment, helping you plan and budget accordingly.

FrigoMaster: Your Trusted Source for Industrial Congeladores and Vitrinas Pasteleras in Bucaramanga
When it comes to commercial refrigeration, having the right equipment can make all the difference for your business’s efficiency and product quality. At FrigoMaster, located at Cra. 10 #28-02, Comuna 4 Occidental, Bucaramanga, Santander, Colombia, we specialize in offering high-quality refrigeration solutions tailored to various industries. Whether you need a congelador vertical industrial, a congelador industrial vertical, a congelador horizontal pequeño, or elegant vitrinas pasteleras, FrigoMaster is the partner you can trust.
Congelador Vertical Industrial: Efficient Storage with Easy Access
A congelador vertical industrial is designed for businesses that require large freezing capacity but also want efficient use of space and easy product access. Unlike horizontal freezers, vertical industrial freezers allow for organized storage with multiple shelves and compartments, making inventory management simpler and faster.
At FrigoMaster, our congeladores verticales industriales are built to endure the demands of commercial environments such as supermarkets, food processing plants, and restaurants. These freezers provide powerful cooling systems to maintain consistent low temperatures, ensuring the quality and safety of your frozen products.
Congelador Industrial Vertical: Durable and Space-Saving
Similarly, the congelador industrial vertical is ideal for businesses that have limited floor space but still require large freezing capacity. Their upright design takes advantage of vertical space, making them a favorite in tight commercial kitchens or retail spaces.
Our industrial vertical freezers at FrigoMaster are manufactured with robust materials and feature energy-efficient compressors, ensuring your products stay frozen with minimal energy consumption. The doors are designed for easy opening and closing, reducing cold air loss and improving overall efficiency.
Congelador Horizontal Pequeño: Compact Yet Powerful
Not all businesses require large industrial freezers. For smaller operations or spaces where flexibility is essential, a congelador horizontal pequeño can be the perfect solution. These chest freezers offer excellent freezing capacity in a compact design, making them suitable for small stores, cafes, or specialty food shops.
FrigoMaster’s congeladores horizontales pequeños maintain optimal freezing temperatures while being easy to operate and clean. Their simple lid design provides wide access to stored items, making them a practical choice for businesses with smaller frozen inventory needs.
Vitrinas Pasteleras: Showcase Your Creations with Style
For bakeries, cafes, and pastry shops, presentation is just as important as freshness. Our vitrinas pasteleras at FrigoMaster combine refrigeration with elegant display features, allowing you to showcase your cakes, pastries, and desserts in an appealing and hygienic manner.
These refrigerated display cases come equipped with glass panels, LED lighting, and adjustable shelving to make your products look irresistible to customers.

I never imagined I would be writing this, but after everything I went through, I feel it's important to share my story so that others don’t fall into the same trap I did. What started as an exciting opportunity to invest in Bitcoin and binary options turned into one of the most devastating financial experiences of my life. I lost over $200,000 to a group of scam brokers and it wasn’t until I found help that I was able to recover every cent, along with the profits I thought I’d never see again.It all began when I was introduced to an online platform that promised high returns on cryptocurrency and binary options. The account manager I was paired with seemed genuine, and their persuasive tactics convinced me to invest. I trusted them, believing that this would be the perfect chance to grow my wealth. At first, my investment showed some progress, and everything seemed legitimate. I began to feel more confident in my decision. But before long, I was hit with unexpected demands for additional funds.The requests were subtle at first. “To speed up your withdrawal,” they said, “you need to deposit a little more.” The reasons were always tied to “processing fees” or “security measures.” I questioned the legitimacy of these requests, but I was assured that these deposits were necessary for my investment to succeed. I felt pressured, and out of fear that I might miss out on an opportunity, I complied. As time passed, the requests grew larger and more frequent. Each time I hesitated, they provided a convincing excuse, and I caved in.Eventually, I tried to withdraw my funds, only to be met with endless delays, excuses, and promises that never materialized. When I tried reaching customer support, my emails and calls were ignored. My account was locked, and I was unable to access any of my money. It dawned on me: I had been scammed. My entire investment was gone, and there was no one to turn to.Just when I thought all hope was lost, I stumbled upon a broadcast that offered advice on how victims of online scams could recover their funds. Out of sheer desperation, I decided to reach out to the contact provided in the broadcast. To my relief, I received a response just hours later. The team asked me for detailed information about my investment and the scams I had fallen victim to. I immediately provided all the requested documentation.Incredibly, after following their guidance and instructions, I was able to recover not only my initial investment but also the profits I had made during my time on the platform. It felt like a miracle. The team at GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES had shown me that there was still a way to fight back against scammers and reclaim what was mine.I share this story now because I know there are many others out there who have suffered the same fate. If you’ve been scammed, please don’t give up hope. There are professionals who specialize in helping people like us recover our lost funds. My experience with GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES has been life-changing, and I want others to know that it’s possible to regain your money if you take the right steps.Learn from my mistakes, be cautious with your investments, and always research before trusting any online platform. If you’ve been scammed, take action now. There are solutions, and you don’t have to go through this alone.

My neighbor, Alex, was someone who always seemed to have it all together. He had luxurious cars, a mansion in Beverly Hills worth over a million euros, and a lifestyle that many admired. His success appeared effortless, and I often wondered how he had achieved such wealth. One evening, after running into him at the local bar, I decided to reach out to him for some advice. Over a few drinks, Alex shared his experiences with investments and how he had made a fortune in the world of crypto. He spoke confidently about Bitcoin investments, promising me high returns with minimal risk. His words sounded too good to be true, but his success and reputation in the neighborhood made me believe him. Trusting him as a neighbor and someone I thought I knew well, I decided to invest a significant amount of money 100,000 USD into Bitcoin through his guidance on a platform called BitMoney com Unfortunately, it didn’t take long for me to realize I had been scammed. The investment was nothing but a Ponzi scheme, and I lost all my money. I felt devastated and helpless, unsure of what to do next. That’s when I turned to Alice, a close friend of mine who works as a police officer here in Beverly Hills. She had faced a similar issue with an online investment scam in the past and was struggling to recover her lost funds. Alice listened to my story and shared her own experience, explaining how difficult it had been to recover money from such scams. She recommended that I try ASSET RESCUE SPECIALIST, a company that had helped her and others in similar situations. Alice spoke highly of them, describing their professionalism and dedication in helping victims of fraud. Based on her recommendation, I decided to reach out to ASST RESCUE SPECIALIST, The process of contacting ASSET RESCUE SPECIALISTS was simple. Within hours, I was speaking with one of their specialists. They thoroughly explained the steps they would take to investigate my case and recover my funds. Throughout the process, they kept me updated and reassured me that they were doing everything they could to help. After several weeks of hard work, I received confirmation that my 100,000 USD had been fully recovered. The relief I felt was indescribable. Thanks to ASSET RESCUE SPECIALIST, I not only regained my money but also learned important lessons about online security. I'm incredibly grateful to Alice for recommending ASSET RESCUE SPECIALIST to me. Her support and the company's expertise were instrumental in helping me recover my funds. I will always remember that wealth isn’t just about material things; it’s about knowing who to trust and having the right people by your side when you need them most.

As an IT student at the Australian National University (ANU), I’ve always been passionate about technology and its potential to transform businesses. One of my goals was to create an online shop to sell handmade crafts, a side hustle I had been dreaming about for months. I knew how to develop a website, so I felt confident about the technical side of things. However, I quickly learned that building a website was only half the battle. Finding a reliable hosting service was equally important. One evening after class, I decided to take the plunge and set up my online shop. I searched for hosting services and stumbled upon a company that promised incredible features: unlimited bandwidth, 24/7 customer support, and a 99.9% uptime guarantee all at an unbelievably low price. Excited by the offer, I signed up and paid AUD 5000 for a two-year plan. At first, everything seemed fine. I set up my website, uploaded product photos, and even processed a few test orders. But within a week, things started to go wrong. My website would crash frequently, and the customer support team was nowhere to be found. Emails went unanswered, and the phone lines were disconnected. It didn’t take long for me to realize I had been scammed. Feeling devastated, I reached out to CRANIX ETHICAL SOLUTIONS HAVEN, a company specializing in tracing online fraud. I provided them with all the details of the transaction, including emails, receipts, and the fake website’s URL. Their team worked tirelessly to track down the scammers and recover my funds. To my relief, they successfully retrieved my AUD 5000 and provided me with advice on how to avoid similar scams in the future. This experience taught me a valuable lesson about the importance of due diligence when dealing with online services. As an IT student, I should have known better, but the allure of a great deal clouded my judgment. Now, I always research companies thoroughly, read reviews, and verify their credentials before making any payments. My online shop is finally up and running, hosted by a reputable provider, and I’ve even incorporated this experience into my studies, focusing on cybersecurity and fraud prevention. It’s a reminder that even in the digital age, trust and vigilance are essential.

LOST MONEY TO FAKE BROKERS? CONTACT→(FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY) FOR ASSIST.
I'm a fairly tech-savvy guy: I check links for doubles, verify sources, and I never download anything shady. But when a fake wallet update stole $220,000 from me, well-let me tell you-if it happens to you, you'll realize how easy this is to fall for. It all began with my regular check of my Bitcoin wallet: a notification popped up, requesting me to install an "important security update." It was absolutely legitimate in appearance-same branding, same language, even the same interface. Wanting to stay ahead with security, I clicked install without a second thought. The very moment the update finished, my wallet locked me out. I tried my usual credentials—nothing. Reset password? The link wouldn't send. My heart pounded as, on another device, I refreshed my balance: zero. Panic set in. My mind raced, wondering: Did I just lose everything? My $220,000-years of careful investments-gone because of one click? I felt sick. I tried reaching out to the wallet's official support, but they confirmed my worst fear: I had installed malware that stole my keys. They couldn't do anything. In desperation, I went to r/Crypto Advice on Reddit. The post was raw, frantic, practically begging for help. Amidst the tsunami of condolences and warnings from folks saying my funds were definitely gone, one reply stood out: "Try FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY. They've helped people in your situation before." Skeptical but desperate, I called, and they called back instantly-reassuring. No impossible promises were made, but they said they would do everything in their power. In hours, they traced where my funds had been rerouted; they were not lost yet. The waiting was torture, but the updates they were giving me kept me sane. Then came that email: "We've recovered your funds." I couldn't believe it. The feeling of logging into my wallet and having the full balance was just unreal. My financial future had been hanging by a thread, and FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY pulled me back from the edge. Beyond just recovery, they took the time to walk me through security best practices, teaching me how to identify fake updates and secure my investments against future attacks. Lesson learned: even the best investors get duped. But thanks to FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY, this wasn't a wipeout.

What is the best way to try and get a referral?
I am currently on my 1 year long job search and have always struggled on reaching/connecting with people on LinkedIn so that I can get a referral. I feel weird just asking, "Hey John Doe could I ask for a referral?" What would be the best way to do that? Also would it be a good idea to apply to some jobs first then tell someone at the company you connected with that you applied or wait for them to refer you? I honestly was never given help at my University Career Center with this, so its all kinda new and a very important thing to learn and do. Any advice or help is awesome.5 -
Understanding Medicare Part B with Variety Benefits Insurance Services
At Variety Benefits Insurance Services, we know that navigating the complexities of Medicare can be overwhelming, especially when it comes to understanding the different parts of the program. One of the key components of Medicare is Medicare Part B. Whether you are just starting with Medicare or reviewing your coverage, we are here to guide you through the ins and outs of Part B and help you choose the best options for your healthcare needs.
Located in Scottsdale, AZ, our experienced team of insurance professionals is here to provide personalized service and expert advice, ensuring you make informed decisions about your healthcare coverage.
What is Medicare Part B?
Medicare Part B is the part of Medicare that covers outpatient care, certain preventive services, and medically necessary services and supplies needed to diagnose or treat health conditions. While Medicare Part A covers inpatient care (such as hospital stays), Part B helps pay for services that you receive outside the hospital setting, including visits to your doctor, medical tests, and preventive care.
Enrolling in Medicare Part B is essential for comprehensive coverage, but it’s important to understand exactly what it includes and how it works with other Medicare options.
Why Do You Need Medicare Part B?
Here are some reasons why Medicare Part B is an important part of your healthcare coverage:
1. Outpatient Care
Medicare Part B covers outpatient care, including routine doctor visits, specialist consultations, lab tests, and diagnostic screenings. Whether you need a physical exam, a check-up with your specialist, or diagnostic tests like bloodwork, Part B helps cover these essential services.
2. Preventive Services
One of the key benefits of Medicare Part B is that it helps cover preventive services, such as cancer screenings, vaccinations, and wellness visits. Preventive care can help detect health issues early and keep your healthcare costs down. Services like flu shots, diabetes screenings, mammograms, and colonoscopies are covered under Part B with no additional out-of-pocket costs if received from a doctor who accepts Medicare.
3. Durable Medical Equipment (DME)
Medicare Part B also helps cover the cost of certain medical equipment that is necessary for your health, such as:
Wheelchairs
Oxygen equipment
Walkers
Hospital beds These items can be crucial in managing chronic conditions and improving your quality of life, and Part B provides coverage to help offset the cost.
4. Mental Health Services
Medicare Part B also covers services related to mental health, such as individual and group therapy sessions. Mental health is an important aspect of overall well-being, and Part B ensures you have access to the care you need to support your mental health.
What Does Medicare Part B Cover?
Medicare Part B covers a wide range of services, including but not limited to:
Doctor’s visits: Whether for routine check-ups or specialized care, Part B covers physician visits.
Emergency room services: Medicare Part B helps cover the costs of emergency services if you need treatment in an emergency room.
Diagnostic tests and lab services: Includes blood tests, X-rays, MRIs, and other diagnostic services that help detect or treat medical conditions.
Outpatient surgeries: If you need surgery that doesn't require an overnight stay, Part B covers the procedure.
Ambulance services: If you need emergency transportation to the hospital, Part B helps cover the cost.
Preventive care: Services such as flu shots, cancer screenings, and other preventive tests that help catch health issues early.
How Does Medicare Part B Work?
To get Medicare Part B, you must sign up during your Initial Enrollment Period (IEP), which typically occurs when you turn 65. Medicare Part B has a monthly premium, which is automatically deducted from your Social Security benefits.
Why Choose Variety Benefits Insurance Services?
Expert Knowledge: We have extensive knowledge of Medicare and Medicare Part B, and we’re here to answer all your questions.
Tailored Plans: We work with you to find the best Medicare Part B options and Medicare Supplement Plans to fit your unique needs.

QROPS Direct: Understanding the HMRC QROPS List and How It Affects Your Pension Transfer
When it comes to managing your UK pension, transferring your pension savings to an overseas scheme can be a great way to gain more control, flexibility, and tax efficiency. One of the most popular ways to do this is through a QROPS (Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme). However, it's crucial to ensure that the overseas pension scheme you're considering is HMRC-approved. This is where the HMRC QROPS List comes into play.
At QROPS Direct, we specialize in guiding individuals through the process of transferring their UK pensions to HMRC-approved QROPS. Based at No L4, 10th Main, Indira Nagar, 100 Feet Main Road, Jeevan Bima Nagar, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560075, we offer expert advice and support to help you make the most of your pension transfer, ensuring that your scheme is on the HMRC QROPS List and compliant with UK regulations.
What is the HMRC QROPS List?
The HMRC QROPS List is a list published by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) that contains overseas pension schemes that meet the necessary criteria to accept pension transfers from UK pension plans. When you transfer your UK pension to a QROPS, it must be an eligible scheme on this list in order to avoid potential penalties or tax liabilities.
The HMRC QROPS List ensures that the overseas pension scheme you choose is recognized by HMRC and that it complies with all UK regulations, making it eligible to receive pension transfers from the UK. If you transfer your pension to a scheme that is not on the list, you risk facing substantial tax penalties, including a 55% tax charge on the amount you transfer.
Why Is the HMRC QROPS List Important?
Compliance with UK Regulations: The HMRC QROPS List is important because it ensures that the overseas pension scheme is fully compliant with the UK’s pension transfer regulations. Only schemes that meet these criteria are allowed to receive pension transfers from the UK without incurring heavy tax penalties.
Avoiding Tax Penalties: Transferring your UK pension to a scheme that is not on the HMRC QROPS List can result in a 55% tax charge on the pension amount you attempt to transfer. This is why it's vital to ensure that the scheme you choose is approved by HMRC and is listed on the QROPS list.
Security and Transparency: When you transfer your pension to an HMRC-approved QROPS, you can be confident that the scheme has been thoroughly vetted and complies with both UK and international pension standards. This provides you with added security and peace of mind, knowing that your pension funds are in good hands.
How to Check the HMRC QROPS List
The HMRC QROPS List is publicly available and can be accessed on the official HMRC website. It is updated regularly, so it’s important to check for the latest version of the list before proceeding with any pension transfer. The list includes the names of the qualifying pension schemes and their relevant details, such as the country they are based in and the type of pension scheme they offer.
Why Choose QROPS Direct for Your HMRC QROPS Transfer?
At QROPS Direct, we provide comprehensive support and expert advice to help you transfer your UK pension to a QROPS listed on the HMRC QROPS List. Here’s how we can help:
HMRC Compliance: Our team ensures that any pension transfer to an overseas scheme is fully compliant with UK pension transfer regulations. We will assist you in selecting a QROPS from the HMRC QROPS List to avoid any tax penalties.
Expert Advice: Navigating the world of pension transfers can be complex, especially when it comes to understanding which schemes are eligible for transfer. At QROPS Direct, our expert team will guide you through the process and help you select the most suitable QROPS for your retirement needs.
Tax Efficiency: We understand the importance of minimizing tax liabilities on your pension savings. We will help you choose a QROPS that offers favorable tax treatment in your country of residence, ensuring that your pension transfer is as tax-efficient as possible.
Seamless Transfer Process: Once you’ve selected a QROPS from the HMRC QROPS List, we take care of the entire transfer process, ensuring that your funds are moved smoothly and in compliance with all necessary regulations. Our team handles all the paperwork and logistics, making the transfer process straightforward and stress-free.
Ongoing Support: After your QROPS transfer, we continue to provide support, ensuring that your pension continues to grow and is managed in line with your retirement goals.
Benefits of Choosing a QROPS from the HMRC QROPS List
Tax Efficiency: By choosing a QROPS from the HMRC QROPS List, you benefit from favorable tax treatment in your country of residence, helping to maximize the growth of your retirement savings.2 -
Many people think that cryptocurrency trading is a scam. Please don't believe them, they are wrong. Trading cryptocurrency is a perfectly legit form of investment. Nevertheless, the cryptocurrency trading universe is ripe with scams, so it makes sense to be extra cautious.
Even though Forex trading is a legitimate form of investment, retail traders often fall prey to fraudsters. Therefore, it is always recommended to exercise extra caution.
1. The essence
a.Forex and cryptocurrency trading is a perfectly legit form of investment.
b. Forex scams and Forex pyramid schemes are widespread globally.
c. Retail Forex traders are the prime targets of fraudsters
d. Choosing a reputable Forex broker is a key step in anyone’s trading journey.
2. How to spot a Forex scam?
Be suspicious if you’re offered Forex trading services that promise massive gains in a short period of time. As with all forms of investment, Forex trading carries massive risks and there is no guarantee your trades will always be profitable. Promises of exorbitant gains are almost always a red flag.
It’s not a good idea to let other people have access to your money. Never deposit any funds without due diligence of the person/organization you are dealing with. One of the most common types of Forex scam relies on not allowing people to withdraw the funds they had deposited earlier.
3. How To Get Money Back
a. Get recovery advice:
Advice from recovery professionals experienced in financial fraud cases can be very helpful in the recovery process. I recommend that you consult Saclux Comptech Specialst that will help you navigate the system and get your money back.
