@kobenz tell me about sveltekit

I mean, Im starting with Svelte, but Im not aiming to switch to webdev.

Just for fun, and to have one framework under my belt whenever I feel like building a product.

@Lensflare as in, we need to automate lots of stuff. Everything is done in python, rather than leveraging CLI tools that pipe everything together.

> the country is absolutely awful

I too dislike having to travel to the UK

@JsonBoa evolutionary science nerd in me liked that

@spongegeoff do you have an opinion on dbt-core for making data engineering projects more git-friendly and testable?

I'm an MLOps guy who might be looking into moving to data engineering

tbh, I had to google how testing of ETL/ELT pipelines looks like.

What if they are "incremental"?
What do unit tests look like?
What do integration tests look like?

It's "straightforward" in non-"data" software, but in data engineering? Idk!

I am checking avro next

@spongegeoff WHERE? US or EU?

@topsecret230 only if you set up a company so that you can register your (company's) Tax ID on VIES, and your client (would be employer) has to be willing to employ you with a B2B contract.

If you tell them they don't have to pay any taxes through that set up, they hire you faster in my experience

Wait, why can you decide how much to give to the government? 😂

Sounds like youre working on graphics :D

Wish I had the hobby time to take the plunge

@horus this.

I was in talks with an italian company and I wanted to work remotely. Their tax regulations are so effed the cost of paying for me was too high with all the taxes.

So I told them, let me invoice through the company I set up and let's make a B2B contract rather than an employee-employer contract.

Because it is intra-EU, I can waive the VAT and get the full amount. Then I sort out the taxes on my side.

I may be stating the obvious: get sunlight on your skin or vitamin D and Zinc supplements!

When I had covid I forgot to take a walk outside for fresh air and feel like that made all the difference.

It's for times like these you should keep applying to jobs even when you're working one already

What helped me quit was amoking after a *hard* run. Felt so sick and nauseous that I never forgot the feeling whenever I look at a cigarette

Can you just not report it as it is to the company? I mean, it's obviously beyond your responsibility.

Everyone that used that shit should be responsible for removing it from their codebases.

@horus I'm going to be bigoted for a second here and try to guess. Is this cuddle thing in London? I think people are kind of crazy there.

You're goals man. I'm doing MLOps here and Im looking up to you. Using Docker Swarm though and a lot of fancy stuff that exists on Kubernetes simply isn't available for the Docker Swarm ecosystem like ArgoCD

Started with a two node on prem infrastructure as that is all the client would be willing to invest.

Moving on to a bigger company where Kubernetes and GitOps are the norm though

@sariel nice point! I just love seeing them scratching their heads and reconsider what they say hahaha

@12bitfloat have you tried asking ChatGPT to do that? :)

Hugo seems nicer but I'm no webdev , just a user

@12bitfloat @jassole I actually have no knowledge on what she did. You have my ears 👂 👀

@12bitfloat isn't it great that in the EU we're united by the commonality of corrupt politicians? 😄

An absolute dream come true for the founders of the union

@yukiinothekid from my interactions with the client, that might be the right answer

@Oktokolo wait, someone hacked devrants servers?

It's like your life is ridden with NPCs

Good to find someone messing with K8s around here! Using Microk8s with istio.

@rov3rand0m well well, an italian startup is wanting to hire me 😨

The only issue with that is that some companies may see you as not stable enough and won't want to hire you 🥲

They'll think that you're leaving them in 6 months.

*whispers*: Linuuuuuuuuuxxx
