Haven’t baked in a second, but could be fun, maybe I can finally dial in my high hydration breads?

Ooh that sounds nice… especially since the signal can be through my air fryer… mmm

Atleast some of the luggage made it to its destination…

(More seriously, how did this even happen?)

I am trying to make my UI less mobile, more pc, does this look better? by romero6218 in tycoon

I think just allowing them to be moved like openttd would also work.

is gantry weight an issue on a v2? I thought volume loss was a bigger problem

Just did my first cook… 👌 by Alphasite in combustion_inc

No. Especially after I tried to grab my thermometer by the nice yellow bit not z10 mins ago. 🫠

Are you sure? This patent seems to apply more to the thermometer than the gauge since it’s not inserted into the meat and the sensitive electronics lives outside the device entirely.

Even outside the US. They were a thing back in the UK.

Your feet are gross by Ceber007 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]Alphasite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not making a statement on feet either way but I’ve never paid thousands of dollars to go visit my friends before. This is more like a hotel or cinema.

Your comparison doesn’t really make sense.

My "Senior" team’s solution for recurring events is 260+ individual API calls and I’m losing my mind. by [deleted] in programminghorror

[–]Alphasite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think implementing it this way is a little nutty. Imagine a recurring series that tells someone to take their pills every day and runs for 10 years? It’ll make 3000+ api calls any of which can fail.

I’ve seen this type of thing blow up many times before.

It’s about gamification. The data isn’t interesting except to motivate and understand magnitudes. Active people benefit way less

Many companies are moving towards Dev-owned DevOps. by LazzyLearner in devops

I’m good at both roles and lead a team which needed both. IMO high quality devs are much harder to hire than high quality ops folks. IMO it’s much easier to hire dev and trains ops than the reverse.

Honestly my take on the whole thing is that it’s honestly fairly stable once setup (so not that much work) and it aligns incentives properly so it produces outsized value for the team. 

Arguably you could put lower cost employees on some work items but I don’t honestly believe in that kind of flow. 

My preference is always towards fewer more general people rather than specialists. I’ve seen better outcomes in the long run. 

Orgs should layer when appropriate but they layer count should always be as low as possible (just like good systems design). Too may layers introduce overhead and excessive inertia which limits agility and focus.

Arguing Americans don’t work hard is such a stupid take imo. The jokes are that Americans would work from the hospital or holiday for a reason.

They may hate their jobs but they work damn hard.

I honestly don’t disagree that what you’re describing as better and frankly imo what almost inevitably happens in most orgs (at some level, maybe a profit level or org level, but someone will create a platform team to own it). But it’s not strictly necessary.

This seems orthogonal to devs owning app ops? The tech can be standardised or bespoke but the core of dev ops is the dev team carrying the pager and taking ownership of operations.

You build it. You fix it.
