@rittmann I just see here you're Brazilian too.

@rittmann did you have github / linkedin? I can add you, recently we hired a freenlacer to do a frontend for us.

His personals goals will help professionally the company? If yes, just let him do the job, but if him just mess up don't wast you nerves and once him do something that will harm your job report him OR you can do what I do in this kind of situation:

– If him breaks up, he'll fix it.
– If him wants to change something, he'll be in charge to develop it not the others.
– If him bother with something "wrong" will just complain if the same came with a solution.

If anything above is not satisfied, just report him and continue doing your job.

@jak645 the market is open? There's a beer delivery?

If yes, brought some to your house, turn off the computer, get way from you home office. If you live in a studio just turn everything off and turn on the TV and watch a relaxing movie while you enjoying your beer, take a nap and back to work.

You'll feel a new human :D

Turn off everything and go to a beer bro.

Just love your code, profession. Hate the human.

Genius, next time I'll hire you!

So cute man, I love dogs. They're lovely company and don't annoy you and spread love unconditionally.

When I was working remote back on my country I left a chicken sandwich on the table and went down to grab a juice. When I back my dog ate it and was sleeping on the bed.

@Xoka I searched at ie and CA specifically. You need pick up the country that you would like to work

@Xoka I found on indeed.

LinkedIn is good to you be in touch with recruiters.

Thanks everyone to share opinions and thoughts about the rant.

But at so far reading about reason to have degree X don't do it and study by our own.

I still at my opinion, have to agree that degree is a good way to have a entry point in area, but it's quite ivy call a outdated 4 years college a degree is enough to you get finished to face a real world and the market and most of them don't do any internships while studying.

I read something related about doctors in MD, but this a very unhappy comparison. I'm a nurse with degree and first of all the colleges will teach the latest cutting-edge knowledge in the field because healthcare usually is a not monkey business and you'll gonna take care of people life. Second all healthcare degrees you have to do 2 years of residence which will gonna throw you on a real hospital with real sick people to care of.

There's no comparison between a MIT fresh graduate with a doctor.

The focus is our field and field I'm talking about in the rant.

@magicMirror I read about that, it's uses git repositories and everything seems attached to master branch.

It's very nice, but stupid at same time because you be risk to be always with some bugged version.

@stop yes, C++ on this case it's more harder. But my goal was to understand if the go works at the same way.

@stop so I can create packages and binaries easily like C++ right?

@shoop how long took to you start deploy products? I'm doing a streaming app and I read about Golang be good for this kind of type of service.

I'm glad for you my friend.

But I'm terrified for after all happens instead they fire the guy they will keep him in another officer doing more bad work and the worst of everything keep the HR executive in the role.

I have a very bad history to tell my last 2 companies here too, but if I tell and this history leak I could go to jail. Hahahahahah

Congratulations for your courage to share and go after your own change instead stay there and wait for the worst.

On my current work, the guys which created the legacy system (and jump out of the boat) create a very complex and useless api with nodejs for each single thing, even the promises instead they use tested and mature libraries they created their own promises handlers which is a pain in the ass to work out.

And they keep the project without update for 9 years along.

Conclusion, the project reached at a point which is necessary to rewrite whole application because the legacy to add new features it'll gonna broke everything.

I know how do you feel, recently I start work on freelance project with C# and I took my old windows laptop to work on it and when I started install the visual studio I choose to not install all the rest crappy stuff that comes within.

And there's nothing related to teams on installation and I deactivated all the others options.

Conclusion, the teams was installed anyway after yesterday my windows update. I guess now to have the teams isn't anymore a option. Probably it's mandatory and in future probably you'll have to log in on the teams to use the products.

If wasn't the .net I could swear this is my current position open right now.

Don't you cry.

At least you gotta the answer right?

I've pass trough this almost all time. I don't give a penny. For me is get my explanation and answer and it's done.

What's make me quite pissed up is when someone mark my answer as correct and I get a lot down votes because someone wants me to do the code for them.

Another example of the useless of this also is the RFC of Data Structures, It has been for years we ask to PHP start give attention to DS and make the PHP not only a high-level language to write code but also start became a real server-side language with proper binaries for structures.

And guess what? No one care, the version 7.0 to 7.4 this arrow functions became more discussed than start give strict types for variables what should be implemented on 7, but the new-gen community was more concerned to make more easy code to make the language stronger.

I believe the language should be easy to write for the programmer, but also the language should give consistency to the code, and an example which don't let me lie about that it's Python.

@frankot Yes, your example is readable, and you give a small function portion.

Imagine a file of 400 lines with fn($var) => whatever

And this is was something I found here every day, function without names and arrow functions appearing and being abused.

Java goes to this path because the community of android developers asked this and makes all the sense since they have to handle a lot of UI issues and etc, so the language should be written more easily instead more "readable" (let's call in that way).

But what's the use of this for PHP? We have a lot of RFC to be voted what could be EVEN more useful for us and for the community.

@SevenDeadlyBugs I would like to try, in fact, I have some knowledge in Python and Golang, but usually, to work with nowadays again they ask a lot of years of experience, something is not easy to get and a lot of companies don't give a care for freelancer projects.

I have 8 years of PHP and watched and participated in its evolution and I cannot imagine trowing this away like that, we need to participate more in the community and show to them how those things in fact it's not a real improvement of the language comparing what we asked to improve.

They made this to follow the Frontend developers, unfortunately, I try to help with PHP evolving and try to contribute for the language, but I totally disagree with this RFC, this is just coming to make the new-gen of developers easier to write the code (e.g. JavaScript developers) but make it less readable.

The code above on the screenshot shows it by itself.

Once I opened a post in a forum of PHP developers to suggest to create a new filter for those who vote in new features and get people who has more backend and real PHP / C / C++ background and my post was deleted and I got a ban because I was "disrespecting" the others developers and this is not the goal of the open-source.

Anyway, unfortunately now in open source we have more involve political people than real technical people who care about language and its purpose.

Looking forward for javascript full-stack developers have the same end of Object Pascal developers.

I guess I have luck, so far I didn't saw this kind of stuff yet.

Maybe I didn't scrolled enough.

When I saw a laptop with this sticker I already the source of issues

The country allows the employers push you to work until 12 hours per day and as per regular law they can just give you a Friday weekly rest.

I'm just trying to stand for some more months to save more money and go back to my home country.

@theKarlisK they don't pay any penny for overtime.

I never will be compesed for that.
