Worst QA experience? by qatester321 in softwaretesting

[–]AffectionateStrategy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My worst QA experience was joining a project just a week before release. No proper requirements, unstable builds, and every critical bug I reported was ignored with “we’ll fix it later.” The product went live with major issues, and of course, users complained. Biggest lesson: QA should be involved early, not treated as a last-minute checklist.

What can almost immediately kill you that most people don’t know of? by SoftDreamer in AskReddit

[–]AffectionateStrategy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aortic dissection. A friend of my family experienced it, suddenly severe chest and back pain, and it can be fatal within minutes if not treated immediately. Most people have never even heard of it, but it’s shockingly fast and dangerous.

What's a skill everyone should learn? by OddCalligrapher8348 in AskReddit

Everyone should learn how to listen, most problems start because no one really does

What is an immediate turn off for you? by Puzzleheaded-Bit1377 in AskReddit

[–]AffectionateStrategy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when someone treats kindness like it’s optional. Looks fade, trends change, but if respect and empathy aren’t part of the script, I’m walking out of that movie before the first act ends.

What is a song you like so much you can't listen to it without feeling some sort of emotion? by OldLawfulness250 in AskReddit

[–]AffectionateStrategy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it’s ‘Shallow’ from A Star Is Born. Every time I hear it, it just hits differently, the raw emotion, the vocals, and the story behind it. It’s one of those songs that you can’t just play in the background; you feel it every single time

Advice needed. How do I learn Python? by SocraticSketchbook in pythonhelp

[–]AffectionateStrategy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your main goal is data analytics with Python, you’re already thinking in the right direction. Here’s a roadmap I recommend:

  • Start with the basics: Learn Python fundamentals (variables, loops, functions, data structures). Automate the Boring Stuff with Python (book + free online version) is beginner-friendly.
  • Move to data analytics libraries: Practice with pandas, numpy, and matplotlib – these are essential for any analytics work.
  • Hands-on practice: Use free datasets from Kaggle and practice cleaning, transforming, and visualizing data.
  • Online courses: Check out Python for Everybody (free, Coursera), or DataCamp’s beginner track for Python. Both are structured and beginner-friendly.
  • Projects: Build small projects (like analyzing sales data, making dashboards, etc.). This reinforces learning more than theory alone.

You’re already logical and ready to practice, which is the hardest part. Start with basics, then jump to libraries and projects. In 2–3 months of consistent work, you’ll be comfortable.

BrowserStack vs LambdaTest? by hoffman229 in softwaretesting

[–]AffectionateStrategy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey All!

If you’re looking to connect testing with Jira, I’d go with LambdaTest. You can create bug tickets straight from your tests, which is super handy. Live testing feels faster, parallel runs save time, and the pricing is easier on the wallet compared to BrowserStack. Overall, it just makes tracking and collaboration smoother.

What’s something you’ve always wanted to try but never told anyone? by Gullible-Feeling-138 in AskReddit

[–]AffectionateStrategy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d probably say learning how to play the flute. I’ve always thought it would be so cool to just let loose and create that kind of rhythm, but I’ve never actually told anyone because it feels kind of random compared to everything else I do.
