I'm a full-stack developer with 10+ years of experience. Mostly I've done work in early stage startup building the MVP, from setting up the infra to mobile apps, I'm not picky on tech stack I'll use whatever stacks the client wants.
I'm looking to any kind of employment that can relocate me and my family to Australia.
Can't say much about culture shocks, Indonesian myself, but from my european friend who live in Jakarta for almost a year now said "people just late everywhere"
I live in Jakarta, Indonesia. My monthly living expenses (adjusted from IDR to USD on current rate)
1. Apartment rent, 6 months contract at $1300 + $200 deposit, pay upfront, thus $250 monthly. It is a small apartment 1 common area, 2 tiny bedroom, and tiny balcony
2. Utilities, varying from $30 to $50, mine has 2 AC running almost 24/7, a PC with average 200 to 300 watt power draw, and 5 led light bulbs
3. Meals, 3 times a day for 1 person, $20 daily or $600 monthly (this amount considered fancy meal, you can get way cheaper meals like $2/each, way cheaper if you cook)
4. Internet, up to 100 mbps, $35 monthly. Internet quality like speed and stability will depend on area
5. Phone data, $7 monthly
6. Cigarette, I'm a heavy smoker (almost 2 packs a day), $4 daily thus $120 monthly
In total: ~$1050 I don't count for entertainment, transportation (people mostly use Gojek or Grab), subscription
Experience living in Jakarta from native perspective.
- Language barrier, most people can talk in English, although not that fluent, hand gestures give you more power than talk
- Poor pedestrian side road, if you like to walk
- City full of concretes, green park almost non existent
- Bad air quality
- Noisy if your resident near big road or high way
- Covid-19 related situation, Jakarta not the worse but people here tend to not care about this
Alternative to Jakarta, I would recommend.
- Bandung, cheaper living cost, small city, good air quality on most part, had lived there for 2 years
- Bali, foreigner friendly, especially Ubud area for extra nature scenery, I don't recommend Denpasar
Let me know if you have any question (email on my profile), as a fellow game dev I admire your dedication
Know any merchant who sells Dylos DC1700? I'm in Jakarta too, kinda hard to find these kind of hardware
Is there a place where I can get information about the MERV rating of certain HEPA filter products?
Is it good to redirect to https when user hit API with http? I have heard somewhere doing so is bad
Purely curious, what if that happen? 100% proprietary, will it do damage to any alternative language that use JVM?
I can agree on this, the booster was super key to show all window, I've never been this fast to context switch between window.
It brought shame everytime I need to config new production server, first thing I did was change to pemissive mode
Out of topic, is low contrast and small fonts become a thing? I can barely read anything from my 13-inch notebook with 45cm distance between my eyes.
Those themes are gorgeous, where I can find those theme?
Couldn't agree more, in Indonesia Oil and Gas Upstream Special Task Force use Excel for almost everything, we try to replace Excel with many good app, but alas, when an app failed we just switch to good old Excel, someone even created Montecarlo simulation in Excel!
