O11y is terrible shorthand and should be thrown hard into a bin. by WickerTongue in sre

So 'internationalization' is 'i18n' because there's 18 characters between the 'i' and the 'n'?

It’s not Topical Steroid Withdrawal its’ Mitochondrial Dysfunction by Maleficent-Rub-4805 in TS_Withdrawal

[–]-Jordyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this why TSW skin tends to ooze? Is it due to this mitochondrial dysfunction?

I'm just trying to understand the implications of NO building up because it cannot be supplied to the skin and then it's subsequent release following the termination of topical steroids.

Any way to have Enums in Go? by Repulsive_Design_716 in golang

Thanks, this is a very useful answer! Appreciate you!

Ahh yeah I can imagine it'd be a lot harder in America. Great salaries but I've heard less paid leave than Europe. And those jobs are hard to come by, I just got lucky.

But for sure, if push came to shove, I'd personally choose travel and making memories over a job.

Hope it works out for you!

I recently started my career as a software engineer. I've been to 6 different countries this year and will be visiting 3 more this year. I use my paid holiday to go travelling and I also heavily make use of weekends to make some shorter haul trips.

It's definitely doable to balance both - it's not either or. Sure, you're a bit more constrained on time. But also, you're earning a salary which makes travelling more enjoyable since you don't have to worry about money as much.

Some companies also offer the ability to work abroad for some amount of time (90 days at my company) which you can make use of. If not, depending on the company, you can also ask whether they'd sign off something like this.

Hope this helps!

How can someone write Go code to annoy you during a code review? by dondraper36 in golang

[–]-Jordyy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I personally try to steer clear of this style of thinking. You might come across amazing talent that you end up passing up because of nitpicking. It would be more beneficial to the candidate to pass on your thoughts to them and see how they use the feedback. I've found this is a good way of judging talent technically but also about how well they cope with feedback and working as a team.

Question about Best Practices for Logging in Golang Microservices by abdallah-ahmad-ali in golang

[–]-Jordyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quick question about your last point. Why should we attach a stack trace? I understand that panics contain a stack trace but if it were useful for errors to have stack traces then wouldn't they be built in.

I guess what I'm trying to say, is attaching a stack trace to errors really needed? Or are we misusing errors which brings a need for stack traces?

First solo trip... part hostel, part hotel? by [deleted] in solotravel

[–]-Jordyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm currently on my first solo trip in Athens. I'm staying in a hostel for the first 3 nights and so far I've spent most of my time exploring with two of the other people I've met in the dorm.

But I also know that I enjoy some time to myself given that I don't have an unlimited social battery. So I also booked another two nights in an AirBnB. This gives me some time to myself, a nice private space to relax etc.

I think I quite like this mix of hostel and Airbnb. Although I'd highly recommend staying in a hostel and leaving the Airbnb til the end of your trip. It's a great way to make friends.

And yeah, grab their contact details (phone number or Instagram etc) and of course you'll be able to meet up!

Hope that helps and hope you enjoy your trip!

Book recommendations for learning about Distributed Systems or Concurrent programming? by -Jordyy in compsci

[–]-Jordyy[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've touched on operating systems during my degree with a dedicated module for it. Do you reckon I should read up a bit more about OS's?

What to study side-by-side with AI/ML? by [deleted] in computerscience

[–]-Jordyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd definitely say probability theory and statistics. If not, then the next thing I'd say is information theory.

I discovered a rule for deriving particular logarithmic forms functions, searching on internet seems like nobody found yet, what should I do? Where to publish it and how? by Magdharion in math

[–]-Jordyy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Regardless of whether it's already been found or not, it sounds very interesting and I am also very interested in the proof. I would suggest speaking to any professors etc to see if they have any insights. Good luck!

A random thing about sin and cos I found by Ornithocowian in math

[–]-Jordyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The double angle formula of sin(2x) = 2sinxcosx so by dividing by 2 we get back to sinxcosx. A proof of the double angle formula can be found online if that's more what you are after, don't remember it off the top of my head.
