@AvatarOfKaine I get just enough to pay the bills. Sorry man.

@AvatarOfKaine I am the thing they hide in the back. ;)

@AvatarOfKaine I'm serious its either in office ot they wont hire you.

@AvatarOfKaine its either be local or no go. Its an old company

@AvatarOfKaine i've not gotten my second wfh day in 2 years. But sure lemme sell you on this remote cunt. 🏌️

@AvatarOfKaine now now. We talked about this, this gets you an interview with HR not for the job

@AvatarOfKaine would have to be local sadly.netherlands

@AvatarOfKaine not sure if this company will spring for remote. Otherwise I'd try honestly.

@AvatarOfKaine did you not read the mess I'm in? U sure bout that three fiddy?

Ansible is qute till you need to release an actual production env.

Frontend still less spicy then backend. We get the org on our backs. 🙂‍↔️
Wanna trade?

@AvatarOfKaine yuh

@AvatarOfKaine 3300 euro before taxes

@retoor yep async php feels weird at first. It's slowly getting more popular though you got OpenSwoole, Swoole, FrankenPHP etc.

But the amount of data throughput is very nice as well as doing things as (web)sockets is much easier imo.

Just wait till there is a mitigation or till you are fired. Either way your issue is solved. Alternatively stop using broken tech.

@AvatarOfKaine sure, have mine.

@Demolishun well we try to query that table but half the time we don't get a response. Super cheap sql cluster tho.

@cuddlyogre really depends on usecase tbh. If its just some endpoint getting hit like sub 50 a second it's just whatever you feel like as long as the consumer is okay with it. But specifically deserializing json is slow generally speaking. Most languages drop down to soms c/asm impl to keep it somewhat speedy.

@cuddlyogre JSON has always and will always be a pile of crap for serializing and deserializing. It's an obtuse format.
Doesnt matter how fast my DB/logic is if json gonna slow me down.
Still beats excel/xml/text formats in DX tho.
GraphQL is kinda nice in theory, but most implementations go rogue or are a hassle.
I do like grpc, but it's too niche/rigged to expose an API with it.

@antigermgerm I guess front-end is a lot lighter on the org BS. But I just love back-end work and find it much easier, except for dealing with org BS and office politics... I don't get paid enough for that shit lmao

@retoor Laravel + blade/vue front-end. Before here I was using Symfony. Still kinda miss it but slowly begrudendly falling in love with Laravel.
Still going to Symfonyconf this year tho. Woo

I'm currently on Linux, but soon moving to Windows because IT can't/won't figure out an VPN or jumpbox for Linux. So I'm giving into their shortcomings. I hate Windows so much tho..

C# is okay if it's dotnet core or w/e its called, but it would be windows dotnet framework, which sorry, but ew.

I've been playing with OpenSwoole in my free time though. It blows my socks off in how fast it is. :)

@retoor it's in PHP. Tho they were trying to get us to move to C#. Because one of the 4 companies use that and our head of IT is buddies with the dev there. *Screams internally*
I was able to shut that down tho.

@retoor I've basically been shadow running as an tech lead/architect.
There's just so much work that needs doing and I can't do it all myself. But feels unfair to give those juniors stuff I'm supposed to do, as all the "complex" work goes to me as an developer. Not giving me time to either be a full time developer running around putting fires all day whilst not having the room nor support from management to become a tech lead to fix some systemic issues.
It took us 2 years of constantly asking if we can have the ssh/mysql passwords to all the DTAP environments. I'm just tired at this point.
These juniors are barely out of school.
One when asked if he knew what OOP was and if he can work with it, said yes. So I asked what an object was, and he couldn't answer. Now talking about a "zesjescultuur".
Dont get me wrong they are great, but I can't really get them to help with a good bit of stuff.

@jestdotty I guess, I've been loud several times already though. Not just about the org but even little things like my second WFH day which I had put into my contract before signing it. It's been close to 2 years now. I'm tired of shouting at this point. I've tried every way I can think of to motivate them into seeing something needs to happen.

@MammaNeedHummus at least you on Linux. (:
Then again alt+F4 still does feel satisfying

At least we make lambo money. Mkay.

@antigermgerm jokes on you I never went to summercamp D:

@antigermgerm didn't know I was nobody. Thanks, glad I finally know who I am.

@lungdart thats the spirit. :D

@kiki well I took away your doubt.

PHP used to be 75% of the internet IIRC its about 60% now.
I love PHP currently on 8.3 with async via OpenSwoole. Disgusting speed with an "interpreted" language hitting close to compiled languages in speed. :}
