How to ask for a significant raise?
I make under 40k after tax and I live in the USA in a coastal state where cost of living is exceptionally high. My title is “qa specialist” however, my duties call for writing scripts and automation as well. I looked up the average salary in my area which is between 62k and 70k depending on the website you ask. How do I word myself and ask for a 20k raise? Am I justified? I’ve been working at this company for like 3 years and they only gave me a dollar raise last year.11 -
Ai depression—— I feel increasingly depressed and hopeless about potentially applying for junior dev jobs - I feel like why? What’s the point when GPT can do the low level junior stuff in place of me? I would really appreciate some words of motivation…. Is it still worth it?21

Currently I am a front-end software tester, meaning I don’t write code or perform back-end testing. I would like to level up and become a backend tester, and I would like to know the most relevant language / technology to master before applying for a new position. I’d appreciate any advice!2

Increasingly paranoid about the possibility that my employer is spying on me. By the way I use a personal computer that I purchased with my own money…. And yet every time my employer tells me to install a program or pull some code or host a localhost or ANYTHING , I freak out and think they can see all of my personal files and I want to know, if there is any way to find out if they are spying on my personal home computer and to what extent is that a possibility? I know it is illegal for them to do such a thing because it’s a personal pc, please someone help I feel like I’m going schizoid8

I go on codementor sometimes even when I could probably figure out a problem by myself because I enjoy the company of a like mind and have no one else to discuss programming with .3

YouTube just deleted my favorites playlist for supposed hate speech. My playlist had like 4k vids in it (none of them uploaded by me) and most of them were just stupid music videos or whatever, nothing even comes to mind that would qualify as hate speech, so because of this alleged needle in a 4k video haystack my playlist got deleted, YouTube did not even show any evidence of the supposed hate speech content within, my appeal was denied instantly. This is why I hate big tech- it is tyrannical and bullshit. It serves as an extra government nanny rather than appealing to its user base. This is because once a social platform grows so large that it has the monopoly on users, it no longer has to appeal to its users, it can then just focus on politics or other agendas. They can do this with confidence that they will not lose their users because they know that the modern internet narcissist will flock to any app that gives them the biggest audience, and since they have the monopoly on users they can rest assured the common narcissist will flock to their app (no matter how shitty or tyrannical) because they’ll get the most exposure there. This is the pattern every big social media platform falls into. At one point YouTube was cool….17

Have you ever had a colleague undermine you or do something to get ahead of you on the ladder or receive the recognition over you?
I’ve heard from a few that this field can be brutally competitive and people frequently mow others down in persuit of power and success. Explain a time this has happened to you?7 -
Before applying to a company how can I tell the company is healthy and won’t tank or lay people off any time soon? Is there like a public metric somewhere I can see to determine this?3

How do I know when I’m ready for a junior dev job? Currently I’m very familiar with syntax rules, data structure, I even created my first p2p app and I’m feeling more comfortable with server side programming and handling dependencies.
But I can’t like code blindfolded and I’m very slow and have to think very deeply and concentrate very hard before doing any minor thing.
How do I know??11 -
How to monetize websites? I am going to be employing a free to use chat app soon and I am interested in ways to monetize it through ads. For now, while the user base is nonexistent , doing a paywall or membership model won’t cut it. I need ways to advertise on my website or get clicks. I am open to SLEAZY or GRIMY methods. Whatever gets me a penny without doing any work is good with me. Please teach me the ways!11

How much of ur job is spent actually innovating and designing new architecture and how much of it is just copy pasting libraries and preexisting APIs?6

I can’t code without dead silence. I cannot concentrate on coding whatsoever unless there is dead silence in my house which leads me to usually coding in the middle of the night so I don’t hear people. Then I lose sleep and I lose my health. Anyone else?6

Will ChatGPT replace all coder jobs?
I just watched a YouTube video of chatGPT SUCCESSFULLY Coding a flappy bird game, with just a few simple instructions. I can’t see a reality where chatGPT WONT replace programmer jobs. Why do we need programmers when you can just feed an AI your code base and they can spot the bug in .2 seconds? We are looking at our replacement, folks. It is officially end times for tech and programming. We were used to build our successor and now we will be disposed.29 -
Building a webRTC website and I could desperately use some advice.
Just to preface im a total beginner at this so apologies if this is dumb but
I am building a p2p cam site using a TURN server. Should I rent two separate Dreamhost servers? One to house my website /webserver and a second to house my TURN server?
Is this possible ? Would Dreamhost server A be able to communicate with Dreamhost server B?
Also is it possible to migrate a dockerized TURN server to Dreamhost in the first place?5 -

Which is the easiest stack of languages to use in order to build a webRTC chat website with basic user account creation and sign in and a text chat alongside a video chat much like chat roulette? I’m thinking obviously html and css and JavaScript. But maybe golang on the back end? And I’m not too sure about the database. Any suggestions would be AMAZING. Thanxxx21

Any advice for how to get that first coding job? I’m hoping to get a job doing web applications, as web dev seems the most common / in demand. So I’m trying hard to learn an html / css / JavaScript stack with a golang backend and build a personal project with that. Is it possible to get a job with only an associates degree and a personal project to show for? I also will be completing an internship soon. Any advice for someone like me who DOESNT plan on getting a BA degree? Thank you so much.6

Developing pornographic / adult themed apps- would you be willing to do it? If not why, if so why? How does one become a developer for a platform like pornhub?47

Who else hates the mental asylum inspired Picasso “art” used by google and as seen in our devrant avatars? I think it’s one of the most hideous art styles there is. Why can’t we be kawaii isometric chibi characters or something.9
