Change my mind

I am looking some tool to systemize large amounts of data and then be able to search across it fast. Something like my personal google+wikipedia in one. Can you guys recommend me something?

Fuck you fucking piece of self taught shit. Self taught my ass you dont even know how to use git or how to use modern IDE. You dont even know how to use debugger. You dont read other peoples code because you are an arrogant kid who thinks that everybody elses code is trash. Yet after couple days when you need to work on your own code you usually rewrite entire fucking thing because of how fucked up your spaghetti implementations are. Even worse you dont even know fucking english so documentation is useless to you unless I dumb down everything for you and spoon feed you like a 5 year old. Motherfucker you cant even stick to a proper work schedule, you go to sleep at 7am and wake up at 18.00 and I have to fucking work overtime because Im blocked by your spaghetti code. Fuck you fucking self taught arrogant piece of shit who never ever worked as a dev profesionally yet you have the nerve to feel cocky.

Just finished coding/support/putting fires down marathon that lasted 2 weeks.

Basically I launched 2 gaming servers got around 600 online players and had to spend 2 weeks around 12 hours everyday supporting them doing hotfixes and etc. I had no time for life. Ioved the work, debugging, responsibility and making impact. Also made some money.

Now I feel completely drained, sick and tired. I think I hit a burnout. I thought I will enjoy my time off with my gf but I just wanna lie in bed and dont do shit for at least 2-3 days. Extended stress over time did a number on me, I am now a nervous wreck.

How can I bounce back asap after a burnout? I have 2 weeks to rest and will have to launch 2 projects again and deal with christmas/new year bullshit...

Fucking bruteforce man. Was supposed to go sleep when got few messages from my gameserver players that their accounts have been hacked.

Checked their logs, all of their accounts have been accessed from Russia. Told them to change their passwords and they told me their previous passwords which were easy af to guess.

Digged deeper and found hundreds of thousands failed logins in the last few hours and all of them from different ips.

Since I cant modify gamefiles on client side, the solution for now was to disable in-game registration and force player registration through the website form with captcha and also where each players login name gets appended with a random suffix chosen by player from a random list..

Fuck you bruteforce scriptkiddies, good luck guessing accounts now. At least I can sleep now.

My local ISP was saving their database backups in an unprotected folder which was literally domain.com/backups

When I downloaded it contained thousands of their clients data.

Reported it to them and got 2 years of internet/tv services for free.

They wanted to hire me but I was still studying in my first year of uni in another city.

Dont become a dev if you:

- Cant sit in the office for 8-10 hours a day

- Dont know how to google information/ errors, instead you interrupt your teammates with stupid questions every 5 minutes

- Are a perfectionist and don't like constant change.

- Are neurotic and give up easily. If you get triggered about broken or messy things to the point where it ruins your day to you and everyone else around you. You need to separate your work from your life.

- Don't have good communication skills. Worst I saw was a guy who speaks with a stutter(nobody understands him) and also writes very poorly (nobody understands his emails). Also he gets very angry when you ask additional questions to clarify what he said. How can you work with someone like that?

- Are very sensitive to critique. I prefer someone telling me that my code is shit and telling me why, instead of feeding me delusions and false validation.

- Dont know how to balance working in team and working solo. Nobody likes lone wolfs who are arrogant and not in sync with the team. But also nobody likes to drag teammates who cant think for themselves and even after years of spent in the field are required constant spoonfeeding because they are unable to google and teach themselves with trial and error.

Last month btc price increased by 25%. Is it still worth speculating with BTC?

Dude reverse engineered mcdonalds API to filter out which mcdonalds have ice machine broken https://twitter.com/rashiq/status/...

Fucking hell. Have a question regarding intellij idea and configuration sharing in GIT. In our project we have target application configurations which are in workspace.xml so we shared workspace.xml in GIT, which was a big mistake. Now with every commit a new workspace.xml gets commited. If we remove workspace.xml from git then we will loose target application configuration.

How to fix this?

We want to share target app configs but we don't want to spam each commit with new workspace.xml changes synced from local repo.

How do you like my new two monitor setup?

Noticed that I'm looping too much on same thoughts, need to write them down. Can you advice some good platform or app which I could use for journaling/diary writing? Having a good search function is also a must! I already tried penzu.com but their search functionality sucks.

This week Im firing a guy who I hired 5 weeks ago. I cant take it anymore. I setted up a nice environment for him and he keeps taking whole day sometimes two or three to do a 2 hour task. He came from electrical engineering background and never had a software dev job. As a person hes more creative type not logical based type. I dont have nor patience nor resources nor time to teach him basics that be could google but simply doesnt have the mindset to do. Sorry bill gates not everyone can learn how to code, or at least not everyone should.

Advice to other people hiring new hires: test the shit out of them before hiring, dont hire from gut. This guy was giving out a nerd vibe, but the only nerd thing that he has is nerdy puns, other than that as a software dev he know less than I did when I was 12 years old.

They were fucking not. I used to get shouted at because I spend too much time infront of a computer. But funny enough everything was fine as soon as I started making more money than my parents while still being in high school. Now they take credit for my success but back in the day I needed to fight with them in order to get few hours of pc time.

How to fucking tell my fucking new employee to start working instead of texting? Dude cant survive 15min without pulling out his phone and texting. I told him to at least timebox his work, like focus on work 1 hour and then text for 5 minutes.

By 5min texting and 5min working he wont learn shit. Im not paying him for sitting and texting.

Problem is, he's a friend of a friend so for some reason he feels quite chill here since he didnt have to bust his ass to get here. Also its his first work.

Today I didnt wanted to rant about some trivial stuff here, so just wanted to wish you all a nice day!

Last week I hired a friend of friend to work on my projects. Hes a young and friendly guy. However he never worked in actual office and it shows. During the meeting he brings his phone and in the middle of explaining he pulls out his phone to respond someone back. Basically lacks professionalism and has this young person cockiness where he thinks he is competent to handle everything while in reality last week he did 2-3 hours worth of work. I want to set up some boundaries but I dont want to seen as a harsh dictator. On the other hand Im paying him over the top even though he doesnt have skills, but the least I want to is a decent attitude and effort. How u would advice me to approach this and teach him to get his shit together? Im already becoming resentful and next week if he keeps treating his work like a school project I will let him go.

Im really trying to setup a nice environment for him to work at, I rented a nice office in a hub space and also bought entirely new laptop plus monitor setup for him to work. I even took him for drinks and lunches but for some reason I start to feel that hes taking that shit for granted and Im being too good.

Hes not proactive, it seems that he will do bare minimum that I give him.

I'm nearly crying today. 1 and half year ago I started my own business (gaming and android app dev company). Today I own an office and hired another person to help me. Why it took me 1,5 goddamn year to realize that working alone from my bedroom on 4-5 projects at the same time is not healthy nor productive in the long run? It seems that this shit took some self growth to realize that I can actually trust other human beings.

Can you advise me what kind of web based wiki CMS should I use? I want to be able to document lots of stuff and fast. I dont need something very advanced.

I hired my first employee and hes starting on Monday! Can you give me some advices on how to onboard him smoothly and be a good boss?

Hey guys, I need your honest opinion. What do you think about service provider office location? Situation is that Im looking for an office for me and two employees. Found one good location which is perf in the inside: has a private modern office, meeting rooms, skype rooms, nice kitchen and etc. However its ugly af from the outside: U need to get inside this hospital looking soviet building and take an elevator to the 8th floor to see all the modern stuff. While price seems a bargain, Im kinda afraid of how we could come across potential clients who would visit us for a meeting. As a potential client how would you judge service provider (in this case android dev company) which has nice offices in the inside but ugly af building from the outside?

I need some platform to save large amounts of text (for example articles that Im gathering for research or just personal diary entries). I also need that platform to have a decent search function. Previously I used wordpress but it's quite limited and I need something better, thinking maybe of some wiki platform, any ideas guys?

Been working really hard last 5-6 weeks and achieved a lot with the help of my ADD meds (concerta, basically ritalin). However I noticed that week ago I reached full blown burnout. I feel mentally, emotionally and physically exhausted. I already signed up for a metting at doctor's to come up with a plan how to fix this asap so I could get back in my flow. My question is how do you guys combat adrenal fatigue and recover from it?

I need some advice about setting up monitoring. For background I have 4 gameservers and it is already hard enough to to develop them, but I am also responsible for support and monitoring of bugs/logs and other shit.

I can't disconnect from my work anymore.

I want to setup some kind of monitoring system, that would check constantly on my gameserver mysql databases and show me charts of what's happening over time. In that case I could have a quick glance at some dashboard and wouldn't need to waste my time logging into game and checking everything.

I would also need to setup some notifications in case shit goes down.

Any advice what could i use for that?

Can anyone recommend me a good app to manage my schedule across the month? google calendars is not comfortable for me.

I have 1.2gb of files, they are textures (client side for my gameserver players). By using winrar I managed to archive it to 550MB. Do you guys know more efficient way of shrinking large sizes of files?

Programmer move

I spent whole day for one client in order to implement ddos protected tunnel into his java based project. In exchange he was supposed to send me his source code of one of his projects. Fucker didnt send me anything. Good that while doing migrations for him I downloaded his compiled project backup, so all I had to do was decompile his jars which had no obfuscafion whatsoever, so I managed to salvage around 95 percent of his source code. Checkmate boi.

Question about git: What do you do when you have a massive pull request? This guy I work with made a PR with 13k files out of which 11-12k is basically HTML's that should have been added as an initial commit, and remaining ones are actual files that we worked on. Should I ask him to somehow split his work in two parts?
