@Ranchonyx Quite good, first day was only onboarding and getting equipment ready. Lot of corporate stuff (time tracking, email/calendar stuff etc.). But everyone was friendly and almost everything worked from the start so a good sign.
Today I get to meet the team (and code base) so second day of almost puking :D

+1 for obsidian. Great tool with enormous plugin support.
Only downside is it's not licensed for commercial.use even as an employee unless you pay.

Good alternative for that is Joplin.

I have 3. Usually I have one with my IDE, one with ticket spec, and one with either technical. documentation or, if in a meeting, teams.
Sometimes if I need to compare or copy code or work on a few hughly interconnected classes in different files, I have another IDE window open on the second monitor.
It's just convenience.

@ostream You are absolutely right about that, but since my compamy does not give me time to contribute to OSS and I am not willing tonuse my spare free time to solve my company's issues, this won't happen (at least not for that feature).

Besides isn't it the point of this page to rant (or whine) about developer issues that annoy you or make you mad?

@tosensei The max valid time. you can selct is however globally configured. And the default which our company uses is one year.

You are right however that pushing to protected branches is stupid. It would have been a workaround since there is no auto-backmerge feature built-in and merge requests have the aforementioned problems. I will solve it without pushing to protected branches anyway, it just annoys me that such a seemingly straightforward feature requires this amount of "effort" and complexity to implement.

I have exactly thebphoto you mean in my head.
However I think it's more of tzebpose and style of the photo than the suit.
Professional business photoshoots create great photos, evem for young people in average fitting suits.

@thebiochemic Obsidian is a markdown note taking tool, which builds on the concept of referencing other notes and making a kind of network or mindmap.
it is nice due to its strong plugin support and active community.

Also supports folder hierarchy of course.

I like it for my DnD notes.

Accurate description of our system's architecture.

Just had the meeting.

It was very much as I expected. Talked about the expectations and reasons why I applied for this.
Some stuff about how they came to the salary and that it would probably also include default 10h overtime (which I have and would earn more than the offering if I added it, whichbof course i didn't)
also asked me how I would change the offering (to which I said, increase the salaty by 5k yearly).
finally he also said that if he speaks personally and not as my boss, to make significant increases in salary, you need to regularly switch jobs, which he doesnt want but wanted to tell me.
And that this wont be the last time we talk about this (in a positive sense).
Also that he was a bit angry first I didnt directly talk to him before applying.

He seemed very genuine and to understand my concerns, but I dont think it will change anything.

No updates yet, he os booked outnand asked if tommorow or thursday is fine

@SidTheITGuy @Wolle
I don't fear being laid off. I'm usually cool with my Boss and we are way too understaffed at our team (hence the job offer).

The most likely result is, nothing's going to change and he will use corporate talk to explain why.

But I'll keep you up to date.

Unit testing caught me more than one bug already, especially on very unspecific edge cases. But i still hate it.

We had a very similar problem
We managed to have the sonarqube gates at least not as a build breaker but only informative. Finally we managed to convince them we could add sonar ignore files tonour repositories so we can ignore certakn rules ( or exclude classes from coverage)

Depending on your build sonarqube might read igbore fules from. the repo automatically, you could try to sneak one in.

@beefdead gitlab has a checkbox fornthis in the project settings.
You can actually configure not so few things about approvers and approvals there

simple solution: specialize in left-bound websites

I think I read about this.
If I remember correctly the article. said the father actually was a hunter and he claims the son must have found out the code (watched him enter it or sth like that).
If this is true, then at least from. the point of owning and safely storijng a gun, the father did nothing particularly wrong.

From. my experience with java in our company. Sonarqube can be extremely pedantic, at least with minor code smells.
If you don't even have many of those, check if your Profile fits and if all relevant code is picked up.

@Lensflare Then make a ticket, that says "Comment in XXX (The ticket with the wat comment) --> Answer question" and assign it to the author.

Shower. That works like magic for me in finding solutions. Luckily we have to shower rooms in our office too.

That hurt.
I was thinking of switching to a EVGA in the next gen I'm buying. One big plus was theirngreat customer Service and easy handling of RMA.
Do you think buying a remaining RTX 30X0
from them is a good idea, or could them ditching GPUs be a problem there?

Might mot be much and you're probably already using it , but we use webflux in our application and using Hooks.onOperatorDebug() made error tracing and debugging a lot easier, locally.
Just dont forget to remove it before committing.

@yehaaw Aren't they, so you get part of the yearly paid out margins and have decision power in the annual meetings (dont k ow the financial terms in english).
No idea if you could sell them though

This joke is so flat, yet unexpected, that it already becomes good again.

Don't get me wrong, it is nice, just weird for someonewho's used to write thousand-file-enterprise java applications.
I was just surprised by the tutorials approach, eg. ojce I had to wirte a short Script which referwnced another gameobject and to get it I declared a public variable and dragged the respective object into the field in the inspector window of the other scripted object. Or when implementing a simple object spawning we used a empty game object with a script called spawnmanager.
If this was the work Flow I'd fear large objects, just draggin around hundreds of gameobjects and having hundreds of invisible manager objects floating around in the scenes.

I still need longer than I want to admit to get end indices (especially with strings). Fuck that inclusive/exclusive shit.
And yeah, my first few programs printed "ello World"

Jetbrains also has this integrated sharing tool which works fine.

@Oktokolo I already started to do similar. My go-to trick is to take a shower.
However sometimes even then it's only after I sent the message that I get the idea.
Maybe it's because I reformulated the problem and got new ideas.
I will try just typing but not sending the message next time.

Literally every time I write my senior colleagues about an issue after trying around for 1-3 hours (or days).
5.74seconds after clicking send I finally have a working solution.

beQuiet powersupply
definetely check carefully which case fans and cpu fans you buy, they are crucial for noise. I like my Noctua CPU cooler.
Also for graphics cards go with an nvidia one (3070? 3080?) and dont take the ones by GIGABYTE. 2xxxers of them tended to overheat due to bad cooling pads and activate the emergency fan which is really loud.

My personal opinion on this is that people that work with the software use it as a tool and ofc wanf it to work as simole as possible. If I want to build a table I don't want to configure my saw, I want to focus on how my table's gonna look like. The tool should save time and reduce stress. When we develop software we also don't care about the inner workings of our text editor or IDE. We want it configured as simply and quickly as possible to our needs and then focus on the software we write.

I think thats a viewpoint that we often forget.
