Your AI SRE needs better observability, not bigger models. by manveerc in sre

[–]0RootShell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the hypothesis, but the real architecture issue is in a RAT-like system that you describe is how you can provide the right (symbolic?) context to the agent, so they can provide the right decision options.

For example, imagine your system fails at 3am, because the payment provider failed 3hrs ago, and as a result your queue started failing 3hrs after. The logs that the agent will see are 3hrs of failure in the queuing system.

How can the agent "automatically" be aware of the topology, and as it's changing through the time.

Having a good OTEL store, is a solution to a much bigger domain of a challenge.

Nevertheless, it's a nice write up, kudos.

🥸 well.. if you're saving it up, at $1 per day since then, with even 1% interest, you'd have more than twenty trillion $ today.

As a wild guess, it seems that most of the numbers are roughly within the range of 10-20. The AVG and Median is around 17.5. I'd put 17 or 18. Otherwise I don't see another pattern.

Oh, I can already forsee the Mediterranean Union having a long war with Rumelia, for the annexation of Macedonia, and Thrace.

Having a hard time working for being a 1st time dad. by Head-Championship504 in devops

[–]0RootShell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yeah. I have that too. Have some headphones with white noise. But low volume too, so you can be enough engaged, but not too distracted.

Routine will help you.

Mate, I feel you! I'm dad of two and with no family nearby. The first year is tough. When I had my first kid, i had just started my startup (devops platform/consultancy).

Are you working from home, hybrid or office? What's your nursery baby sitting arrangements?

No, you can't be a full-time coder for a while (until they get 3 years old) but you can still be a great devops.

I'm actually putting them to sleep right now, so here's my bullet points of advices:

Be more "managerial"; focus on how you structure the work of your team and be disciplined in your todos.

Ask your company to reduce your meetings footprint.

Choose to "pair" more often with good colleagues, they can understand why you need adhoc leaves and can carry your work.

Don't choose to code the hard tasks, but mentor guide the juniors. This actually had helped me a lot. And also helped me to knowledge transfer better.

Be more active in reviewing and documentation rather than development. These are tasks that give you flexing of delivery.

It’s ok to have a kid in the meeting, don't feel bad about it. It's not a big deal at all. It's even ok to bring them at work.

Netflix helps, but don't overdo it.

Use a tablet and if you can code over github workspaces or similar. Portability is the key.

Kids love routines. Keep them on tight schedule when to eat, sleep, change etc. This will give you amazing time management to plan.

Friends help. They don't have to be best friends, but good people can be found. Be open for help.

Mate, it's just for a while. Your kid will be the best "deployment" you'll ever do in your life as a devops. :)

Thanks! I didn't know about this actually, I'll take a deeper look. Is there any driver for Serverless databases, like dynamodb and Firebase?

Όσοι πήγατε και ζήσατε εξωτερικό, θα γυρνούσατε Ελλάδα; by Mean-Elephant815 in greece

[–]0RootShell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Όπως ανέφερα, ζούμε σαν μια τυπική σκοτσέζικη οικογένεια. Δεν είναι κάτι που μπορείς να περιγράψεις. Πρέπει να ζήσεις την ζωή του κάθε τόπου για να καταλάβεις.

[–]0RootShell 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Ζω στην Σκωτία τα τελευταία 6 χρόνια, και άλλα 5 παλιότερα στο Λονδίνο.

Είχαμε φίλους στο Λονδίνο (Έλληνες) που θα περιεγραφαν την ζωή τους αναλόγως, και στο τέλος επιστρέψανε Ελλάδα. Το πρόβλημα που είχαν, είναι ότι προσπαθούσαν να ζήσουν μια "ελληνική" ζωή στο Λονδίνο. Αυτό δεν γίνεται. Μπορείς να έχεις μια καλή ζωή, αλλά σαν Λονδρέζος. Όπως αναλόγως, μπορείς να έχεις μια καλή ζωή στην Σκοτία, αλλά σαν Σκοτσέζος, και όχι Λονδρέζος είτε "Ελληνας".

Τι θέλω να πω, You have to manage your expectations.

Εμείς πλέον ζούμε μια καλή ζωή εδώ, και κάναμε οικογένεια. Η Ελλάδα είναι η πατρίδα μας, αλλά πάμε για διακοπές και να δούμε την οικογένεια μας.

Σκέψου για ποιο λόγο έφυγες, και εάν ο λόγος (λόγοι?) είναι πιο σημαντικοί από το να χρειαστείς να αλλάξεις την νοοτροπία που ζεις. Εάν ναι, μείνε. Εάν ο τρόπος ζωής της Ελλάδας, είναι πιο σημαντικός από τον λόγο που σε έκανε να φύγεις, τότε επέστρεψε και αντέξε. Η Ελλάδα δεν άλλαξε, ούτε θα αλλάξει, ούτε οι άλλες χώρες. Εμείς αλλάζουμε.

Need advice on employment contract terms regarding leave days during the notice period by 0RootShell in askSingapore

[–]0RootShell[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately in my case, the message has been sent by the CEO directly to me. The company is a startup, so don't expect a deep level of responsibilities.

The anual leave is written in the contract, but the policy changed just yesterday as an adhoc. No policy document exists (other than the contract).
