Got to love the FNB app - I love being able to sort out my car registration like that and avoid queues.

I do not like the R200 admin and delivery fee.

But its ok, i might be broke, but my car is sorted.

Soft skills required:

  • Agile way of working
  • No hierarchy
  • You take it on and make it happen, you see what needs to be done and take action
  • Coaching skills, you like to help others grow
  • You speak up if you do not agree, or do not understand, you listen to others
  • You speak English and/or Dutch
  • You love Star Wars and foosball

Technical skills

  • Java 8, Spring framework
  • Experience working in a micro-services architecture
  • Continuous Improvement and Delivery
  • Testing (micro-services integration testing)
  • Working in a containerized environment
  • You are not a one trick pony, and like to improve on existing status quo

Too bad its a Java jobā€¦ While I do have some Java experience, and Iā€™m by no means a one trick pony, its not really the path I want my career to take me. But weā€™ll seeā€¦ I have already submitted one CV for my dream job, so Iā€™ll have one ready for this java job if I donā€™t get the other one, since Iā€™ll be spitting out resumeā€™s like Imperial Probe Droids!

i think Kristanna loken is a glutton for punishment she appeared in a number of his movies.

I watched 10 minutes of his house of the dead movie and i couldnt punish my eyes any further.

Finally got my hands on PUBG (Steam). No more of that Mobile on PC nonsense.

Picture the scene: youā€™re playing a mobile game on PC. The game looks many generations old, yet tanks your PCs performance significantly, as a result of it running through an emulator.

I have a big dislike of multiplayer games but PUBG, now that was a hell of a lot of fun.

I never thought Iā€™d like BR. Then, PUBG came to mobile, and I became hooked.
Also recently started playing Apex again and Iā€™m better than beforeā€¦ :thinking:

My main issues were stutters and prolonged freezing at times, which in many cases, ultimately led to my demise.

On the mobile version? Did you see the LTT video about watercooling your phone?

PC version, due to its high CPU dependency. Pretty much a consistent 100% CPU usage scenario, with GPU hitting the 50% mark.

CPU - i3 3240 @ 3.4GHz
GPU - 750 Ti OC @ 2GB

Potato PC specs. I phrase my PC not as being a gaming PC, but rather, a gaming-capable PC.

Patience and lack of upgrade funds.

Seems like CI/CD is taking on a new meaning thereā€¦ I didnā€™t know you were interested in dev positions as well? You shouldā€™ve told me! Also, submit a CV and lets see if we can find a match for you.

I am, but Iā€™m notā€¦ Iā€™ve done some java, lots of php, perlā€¦ but I really want to focus on system or network adminā€¦ I spent almost two weeks on my CV for a specific (dream) job that I just submitted, so now I can start making one more general.

But ya, if I can land a job programming, I will probably take it.

Iā€™ll get you a CV soon. Appreciate the help in the job hunt (although its about to become more fishing than hunting)
