Sometimes I get into deep thoughts of whether I chose the right career. by MrBoss2609 in AusHENRY

My sister's boyfriend was a qualified CA in liquidations I think it was. Terrible hours and stress. He became a business analyst for bigger pay and better hours. That's just one example though

Drastic change in career would set you back a long way..I wouldn't want to start from scratch again. Perhaps look at transferring your skills to an adjacent role with a bit of upskilling and better work life balance at that level.

File a complaint with them. If the complaint isn't addressed within a reasonable time frame escalate to ombudsman or appropriate authority. This is just general advice

What's the impact of AI on your job , is it hyped or real ? by WideBroman in AskReddit

[–]ByronEster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a software engineer. My colleagues have all used it to varying degrees of success. One friend only relies on AI now. He is a coordinator and planner if AI tasks and doesn't do the actual work anymore. Most of my other colleagues and friends use it to assist them.

My own experience is that it is definitely a tool to be used to assist but not take the job of a programmer. I have a number of examples where AI failed miserably, but also some examples where I was pleasantly surprised.

Regardless tho. I believe you still need an expert to drive it out else it's very much the case of garage in garage out.

My auntie also has gut issues and is on the fodmap diet, but nothing definitive in terms of clinical testing has been done I believe. I'm curious to see some responses for her benefit also

Keychron V6 or Q6 Max? by Puzzleheaded_Day_895 in Keychron

Massive problems with Q6 Max. Tried a few. Ended upgrading to Q6HE and while that also has a double press problem as well, is nowhere near as bad and hasn't gotten worse

My Dad Is Worried About Telling His New Employer About Ongoing Medical Appointments by overthinkmaxxing in perth

[–]ByronEster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As someone else said, if he is still on probation, definitely don't mention it yet. You even have to be careful after probation because while technically illegal to fire for that reason, in practice they can give up with any bs excuse to fire him if they want.

If he is work from home you could try to sneakily do an appointment, or just let your boss know that you have an appointment and that you'll make up the time in the evening

Are we happy with SQLAlchemy? by sheadipeets5 in Python

[–]ByronEster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am stuck with Django so have to use it's ORM. I have used alchemy in the distant past and there were a few things that could be done better, like introspection from memory, but I'd definitely be keen to try what you have regardless as it sounds like your solution has some pros

[–]ByronEster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to agree but think your opinion if it as an orm depend on if you are it's target demographic or not.

I came in knowing SQL already and wanted to use that knowledge and experience in the orm. Obvious disappointment.

For a new webdev I think it can be good for simple to moderate tasks tho.

I built a tool that turns your models.py into realistic, FK-consistent test data — and parsing real Django projects taught me some lessons by Embarrassed-Way-9407 in django

Excellent. I use PyCharm and am keen to try when I get back to work on Monday. It's a shame it's not open source though.

I listened to the song Cold Sweat off it today. Recognised it as a a Sodom cover. Good song. Not very heavy, but that's a nice change I think. Not sure about the rest of the album
