This is a good point imo. They just don’t know the breadth of it yet. Being experienced also means getting a grasp of the amount of stuff you don’t yet know.

I’m just happy I’m not a frontend developer

This thread has been the first time I’ve been downvoted for a good faith comment I made lol

Yeah I thought it may even be lower effort since you don’t do any of the administration. But maybe abut of a high threshold to find someone reliable.

Genuinely? Find a friend with a plex server. There’s plenty of us out there with huge libraries and the automations setup but they’re barely utilised. Got any tech-savvy friends or peeps on Lemmy near you?

I remember here in the Netherlands that you could only watch HBO through a specific internet provider (ziggo-Vodafone). I’d have to switch goddamn ISP’s to pay for their show. That gave me all the justification to pirate the shit out of it.

You need to stop spamming your blog

Have a work and personal license. Pretty doable after a few years the full package is only like 170 euros a year.

Pair programming can be really fruitful. Either I feel like I’m teaching someone something (which I like) or I’m getting schooled (which I also like).

Both being stumped and fetching a third is also interesting. But usually it’s a functional person not a dev.

Really grinds my gears to get a review request for a huge PR with almost no context and no instructions on how to run the code / test data.

I’ve even had one guy ask for a review who hadn’t even manually tested his own codes happy path. Sure he wrote some unit tests and those ran but once you actually tried using the code in the app all kinds of exceptions and weird situations came up. No idea how people dare do that shit.

Obsidian, fastmail, Bitwarden, Waze, and a messenger (telegram)

Still wanting to dive into IRC for this stuff

Is that an invite?

Lmao that’s ridiculous
