Programming / Re: Companies That Hire Based On Github Projects Are Stupid. by preciouswoman66(m): 2:59am On Aug 22, 2023
Devdevdev:


So what's your bench mark for annual commits?

Is the number of annual commits more important than the quality of projects?

For instance I prefer to save my projects locally and only push to github upon completion. Would I fail your recruitment test on that basis even though I can explain every line of code and my code is very clean and reusable?

All the projects on my portfolio are fullstack projects written with Typescript and PostgreSQL as database. I didn't start pushing them to github until recently because I didn't want to push nonsense tutorial toy projects to github like everyone else is doing.

Won't you rather test me on my coding ability that use stupid green lights on github to judge me?

I am not boasting but I can write better code and solve multiple easy to medium level leetcode problems using javascript, something most juniors with 1000+ annual commits can't do.

It's a good software engineering practice to write code incrementally, it helps in debugging and rolling back changes made. the little green lights helps you visualize your increments

So I see no wrong in hiring mangers or Senior devs using that to hire junior devs. I don't think any senior devs need Juniors to have the habit of throwing bunch of code in one pr to company codebase.

Programming / Re: What Advice Would You Give To Someone Who Wants to Start Learning JAVA by preciouswoman66(m): 12:51pm On Aug 17, 2023
The learning path I'm currently following is this below:

For traditional programming
1. Computer science: programming with a purpose. I'll take the part 2 later on too
2. Java programming and Software engineering fundamentals specialization


For Data Structure and Algorithms
1. Algorithm Part 1. I'll take part 2 later on

For Software design and Architecture
1. Software design and Architectures specialization

All courses and specialization are from Coursera. While taking them following timetable, I also make sure I do open source contribution using Java cause learning before doing ain't better enough but learning while doing.

My aim is to be a better software engineer. Though I haven't seen better spring framework and herbinate resources yet to balance it

If you understand basic Java and understand the concept of web servlets and MVC architecture, then try java techie's channel on youtube, if you want a more in-depth understanding buy Spring Framework guru courses [John Thompson] on Udemy. But the most beginner-friendly course for me is chad darby's Spring Boot course on Udemy

Thank you for your recommendations smiley

Programming / Why Such Scarcity In Online Resources by preciouswoman66(m): 4:02am On Aug 14, 2023
I've been looking for some java spring and spring boot online resources for learning but available ones I could get are old and not too beginner friendly. Why is it like that?

And please don't tell me documentations is the best go to resources to learn as a beginner. Docs is good when you're looking for a specific concept to learn or understand, not to get started in it as a fresher.

Also please drop online resources for Java spring and spring boot if you know any excluding java brains YouTube channel, and baeldulg website

Programming / What Happened To All The Buzz On Social Media by preciouswoman66(m): 3:22pm On Jul 30, 2023
I've been thinking about the buzz working in FAANG. What happened? Everyone seems silent about it.

Before now, lots of dev usually talk or brag about working in FAANG companies but it doesn't happened anymore. What changed
