Back after a long time - the feud still on? :D

@kiki okay. I learnt something today.

Failed another test?

DSA isn’t good to test experienced people, but for freshers it is a good level1 test IMO.

I’m sexually very inexperienced, but if you have a wife, how did you get cum on your face as mentioned in the other rant? Older photos?

I’m using it. Sometimes pretty cool. Sometimes pretty flop.

Welcome to DevRant.

@Nanos I agree to that. When there is a wholistic message with the “I’m gone” message, it is meaning ful to read it.

Just a “I’m leaving” feels more like “gimme more attention” instead of a mature action. I PERSONALLY don’t like it. (Doesn’t mean anyone has to follow it).

This is not an airport. Your are not a plane. No need to announce your departure.

I wanted to upvote @Demolishun ‘s comment 500 times.

I’m 15 years younger than you, and have led teams with people 15 years older than you. Focusing on the “why” of the criticism and figuring out “how” to resolve them is the best way forward. You can just ask, everyone will help.

@Lensflare interesting. How do you define when something is unusual enough to merit a comment?

@Oktokolo the data is personally identifiable. But, it is the user’s own information (the person making the request to our servers is getting only their own data through the scraping that we do)

Yeah, but WTFMP. Write the manual properly.

@Oktokolo it doesn’t harm anyone or any intellectual property. It scrapes data that it isn’t supposed to scrape instead of using the free API.

This is prohibited in the terms and conditions.

(The API doesn’t have a few important bits of information).

“Even though our license doesn’t strictly allow this, we welcome it and we encourage users to share these code modifications on our forums.”

This is the same as buying views on Instagram.

💯 that it is propped up by bots.

ChatGPT answer:

Imagine AWS serverless like a magical kitchen where you don't have to worry about cooking or cleaning up. You just tell the kitchen what you want to eat, and it appears on your plate, perfectly cooked, without you needing to do anything else. In the same way, AWS serverless lets you run your computer programs without having to worry about the computer (server) they run on. AWS takes care of everything, so you can focus on what your program needs to do. It's like magic for computers!

You want a cookie.
You don’t want to bake a cookie.
You ask for a “readymade” cookie.
You can customise it, and it is baked by others.

That’s server-less. It is just someone else’s server that hooks into your code.

@Grumpycat micro services are already biting people in the ass.

The last issue I faced integrating with a $200B+ company, 7 teams had to be involved as the auth was handled by 7 different system with cryptic segregated logs. Took 2+ weeks to figure it out.

But as long as things work out and the latency is minimal, it provides nice separation of concern, until it doesn’t.

@Lensflare yes. Manage the software. Call it 10 times a day for updates, and rant against it if it doesn’t pick up your call. The software will be fired but the manager will keep leeching on.

Eclipse has been living in an eclipse, and has no clue that the world moved on.

@gymmerDeveloper Yeah. Ryan did.

Everything is a feature if you are _______ enough.

Fill in the blank.

@Been-Outside If you are using "GPT thingies", use the Cursor IDE. First 50 calls to GPT-4 are free, and it is really cool (when it works).

@AlmondSauce “write failing tests and get them to pass” is probably the best advice.

+ log whatever you can around whatever you could isolate

If you cannot reproduce issues in dev, isolate what’s different vs prod and test those manually (postman/curl)

Put down the flow in a chart and mark things green/red about which part works and which doesn’t. That’ll help isolate things for bigger flow where data moves between 15 systems to generate results.

One of the worst things in the world is that children inherit their parents’ money and status and the fruit of their good deeds, but not the punishment of their crimes.

In many rural schools, you have to wait in line to get water from the water tank in order of your surnames (the caste values of the surnames).

Also, in some places they’ll bash you to death for violating this.

They also know your religion and region and mother tongue from this, which are other criteria they use to filter people out.

In India, surnames promote caste bias. A Mookherjee (signifying Bengali Brahmin upper caste) would marry or sell houses or rent out to only others with upper caste surnames. During interviews you can give up hope if the panellists are all upper caste. They know “what” You are from your surname. You won’t get contracts or legal advice if you have particular surnames, they’ll just refuse or pay you less or charge you more.

@AlmondSauce yes it is. I’m trying get out, I’m trying 🥲
