Nah, human stupidity has no limits. And the gap is only going to get bigger with time.

Just convince the client that they don't need the website. Problem solved :)

Well yeah, gotta make sure that users are stressed as much as possible. Just add a slow and cpu intensive validation to make the input feel janky.

Then add confusing error messages and just for fun add an A/B test on the form that is broken half the time.

Bonus points if you "forget" to add any useful contact information to your website/app.

Just give the address of some remote island.

@antigermgerm Yeah I have appointment scheduled, but I don't think that's the problem, my theory is this:

I was lucky enough to not get sick for a few years and I think my body got used to that. So when I got sick my immune system was not ready and well I spent 5 days laying in bed barely able to stand up.

My guess is in situations like this body starts using all resources it can get to fight and shit starts hurting.

But that's just my theory, I still need to see what my dentist will say

Fuck, the teeth hurt part reminds me... I was sick couple weeks ago, for some reason my teeth just started hurting for no fucking reason, I spent 3 or 4 nights just trying to sleep but couldn't...

Then, everything went away, no more pain and I could sleep again. Human bodies are weird...

Go outside, find a decent looking patch of grass, sit down, reflect until you get hungry, eat.

When you do all this steps, setup some kind of sync or backup thingy.

Recovery done :)

I've realized that for almost all questions this applies: Our world is not simple, don't expect answers to be. Simple answers usually don't tell everything.

This is because well... we as humans kinda suck with thinking and need things simplified because it's usually "good enough".

Like @ScriptCoded said, use sqlite. The thing is, if you don't need to scale horizontally it will preform really well.

The reason why it performs good is you skip network overhead with sqlite.

The suggestion from @retoor is also something you should consider, even if you chose sqlite.

Having docker images will make way easier to test and hop between cloud providers so you can get optimal pricing.

@Demolishun Not the point here - if you try downloading windows ISO's from official M$ site you will get waaaaay slower download speed than using their media creation tool. This is the point, intentional handicapping.

And if you try to dare downloading windows 10 iso rather than 11 you might need to wait hours for download to finish.

This is from personal recent experience, my net is fast and was perfectly fine, but download still took hours to complete...

I tried Zed editor and I stopped using JetBrains IDE's as a result, try it and see if it works for you.

Do note, it you are writing Java or Kotlin you are fucked and stuck with IntelliJ :/

Edit: Zed is far from perfect and still missing a lot of features, but even in this state I'd rather use it than JB's offerings

@Tounai Agreed. I would even generalize that process you described the best way to learn anything.

Ofc with common sense applied, like don't go breaking nuclear reactors and stuff.

@retoor I've heard of that, but never met anyone that confirmed it.

And yeah mycelium is wild, calling it a flesh of god is quite accurate :p

@retoor Interesting, thanks for the info. You sound like an experienced substance user. (this is meant as a compliment)

Also you mentioned experimenting with mushrooms: Did you ever try taking a micro doses for extended period of time?

@retoor > 3mmc is good to code on

Do tell more please.

@netikras The network map to the router is: Modem -> Switch 1 -> Switch 2 -> Router -> My PC

@Demolishun Shit dying from a random power outage? Yep, this has never happened to me before

@j0n4s His brother probably, better watch your back for the rest of your probably shortened life ;)

I tough you were talking about weed at first.. well espresso and a joint pair really well from personal experience :p

I do have to let everyone know that unicorns are real. All you have to do to see them is take a bunch of random drugs and hit your head really hard :)

@theKarlisK Gitea lacks one of the features I like about GitLab - nested directories. Seriously why the fuck does everyone else just provide organizations as a way for having things organized..

I have a few other gripes with it but it's a viable option for smaller teams at this point.

Forgot to add there were some "abstract" questions prior to this that they just wanted to see how would I approach things. I think senior roles interviews should put a bigger focus on this (assuming the person can code and learn new tech)

I think they should, but they should be done differently, I had a great experience with my current company when interviewing:

They presented me with a project that was having an error and the question was "X feature in this service errors out, how would you fix this?"

I spent around 5 minutes to solve the problem and after I was done they just said "You clearly know what you are doing, we use some of the tech that is not listed on your resume are you prepared to learn X, Y and Z for this role?" I said yes and that was it.

So CI/CD stands for two options you have when developing applications: Continuous Instability or Continuous Destruction, your pick :D

@oiledwheels I agree that JetBrains IDEs are not the fastest, but for the functionality they offer I have not found a good alternative.

But also I only use them for coding, for modifying single files and configs I just use vim.

@oiledwheels Android studio was developed by google from community IntelliJ project and it was rushed, so here is your answer.

I'm using JB ide's every day, I tried alternatives with a open mind but for me at least, JB products are just better.

My most used IDE's are IntelliJ, CLion, WebStorm and DataGrip

@dotenvironment "Apologies for missing the meeting earlier but my cat deleted the boot partition on my computer." should do the trick

To be fair, because of competition from Kotlin Java was forced to improve things, and modern versions of Java are quite decent. If they keep up the improvements I think Java will stay relevant for some time.

At my company we are using Java for most of micro services and I have no complaints.

We are of course on the latest lts version of Java, legacy versions are a pain to work in (8 or lower) and I would probably include 11 as the legacy version as well.

@iceb Oh yeah and that, so the only ones that are working now are hot fixing a production because someone pushed on Friday :D

(And I assume they don't have time to rant on here while doing that)

Yes, this is by design.. now.. get back to work :)

It's likely that they gave 2 weeks notice prior to your hiring, but your manager/boss convinced them to stick around until they hire a replacement and then train you for two weeks - this is quite common because they usually double the pay for the person who is quitting just so they can at least somewhat train the next person.

But now and then you get a good experience like mine: When I was interviewing for a lead dev position the guy that I was replacing was there and told me, I'm starting my own company, but I'll be here for another 3 months to help you with anything you need and even after that you can still contact me if you need any help.

Total honesty on their part, and they kept their word this guy showed me as much as possible and he still answers to every question I have and even randomly sends recommendations from time to time.
