My prediction might go right again. Maybe there's a GA waiting to happen on page 70.

Oh yeah, we're well past the 63 I guessed!

HYPE HYPE HYPE

Oh, we got more members joining in. Still need that Ryzen VPS?

Ha ha . Which Ryzen VPS? last years?

Yah, we both were the ones looking aggressively for Ryzen VPS last year. Remember?

Yup. 7950x .. I won one last year.

Oh, I completely forgot about that. I missed out on that one.

You'll win more this year..

I now get how people get these crazy deals, just by joining these types of promotions, I didn't know about this before. RAM upgrade for life is yummyyy

I feel sorry for people still buying from the so-called mainstream hosting services. I remember a time, when one of these major hosts (kinda rhymes with PoDiddy) tried to sell me a 32GB RAM VPS after I told them my purpose and requirements. A month later, I could run the same project on a 2GB RAM RackNerd VPS very smoothly.

Nothing really specific brother, I'm eager to win Racknerd credits or willing to convert the prizes I win to credits. But... If I happen to win the SM7B podcast microphone, that'll make me start a podcast or something similar as I was in the field a few years ago. And I always loved to get my hand on that power hungry mic, I'll just have to buy a decent audio interface for it. (expensive too)

@Frobsy -- Now that's what I call planning ahead! Love hearing about your podcast background, and yes - the SM7B is definitely a beast of a mic. The fact that you know about needing a solid interface shows you know your stuff

Keep that energy up! The mic could be yours, and who knows, maybe we'll all be listening to your podcast powered by that SM7B soon! By the way, account credits are always useful, so I definitely understand that angle too.

I love RN's giveaway threads for this reason. The discussion may take U-turns at any moment. One moment you are discussing servers, the other random stuff, and outta nowhere, we got a discussion on Audio!

@Frobsy said: Thaat script is very helpful bro, and wow the peak was 4k comment in a SINGLE dayyy.
how much time did it take you to make that script? seeing these cool things makes want to learn to code, seeing how much I could benefit from it especially when it comes to automating stuff

Everything started with a simple script 3 years ago already It got improved during all the activity threads, so its hard to estimate how much time has been spent on this already.

It doesn't really matter, how much time it took to make it, its the enjoyment that users get when looking in the stats

I agree, when I was a teen I used to do something that made me one day say "I hate sleeping" imagine I was that passionate about something that I'm trying to remember but I can't, this is very weird to me. I have to dig in my facebook activity back in those days to see what I was so attached to. I'm not used to forgetting things this easy.

Working on something you love is truly a gift and its been a while since I've felt that way. I tend to have this intense passion for new things I learn, but it usually lasts about six months before it fades.

I'm glad to do what I do. I am System Architect, but mostly still doing development, and have been here for +-20 years already I love my job

Wow, 20 years! do you need a uni degree to get that type of job?
What exactly does a system architect do on a daily basis?
I'm glad to see you here, we could learn a lot from you

System architect designs the software. Not the way user sees it, but what technologies are used, how it interacts with other applications, DB schema and so on.

That sounds interesting brother!
I'll look into it.

You need a lot of experience to be a good architect. You need to know what patterns to use in which cases. And you also need to have good guesses what new features users will request later

Is a Uni degree compulsory to land a job at a reputable company, or are there any long distance courses catering to this?

I would say, you need to be a good developer first, have a lot of different projects, try to understand WHY others made some decisions, and then you can become an architect.

Uni is not mandatory, but from my own experience I can say, it "clicked" at some point to think differently in my Uni

That feels way out of reach to me at the moment. I'll look into it later anyway!
That's insightful of you, thank you!

Just a tip someone gave me a while ago. While I haven't had the time to act on the advice, due to lack of time, might help you. Start projects and post them on GH. People often underestimate the power of GH.

Invoice #13647138
Please double the bandwidth.
btw even though we are not from the US, we need to pay VAT 11% when checkout through Paypal?

Hi @jangkrikboz -- Thank You for your order! Really appreciate you trusting RackNerd with your business

Your bandwidth has been doubled as requested!

Regarding the VAT - this is actually due to FastSpring, our PayPal payment processor. They do by default collect VAT/sales tax in certain regions. For future orders, you might want to try the "Credit Card" option during checkout (it's also on the right side of our invoice page). This processes through Stripe instead, which doesn't automatically add any VAT or taxes.

Careful if you mention SpaceX too much, Musk will show up out of nowhere and Trump says he's a pain in the ass to try and get to leave once he's here.
