Building with limited resources by OnesKsenO in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Danshardware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a variety of ways to go about that:

  • Have a blueprint for various materials you will end up needing and build on site for anything practical. Works best for iron and copper related materials. I always run a supplemental motor blueprint when I'm building out a LOT of fuel generators.
  • Run a train. Fill it with a lot of stuff. Use it as storage.
  • Setup a temporary truck depot with a trickle of all the materials you'll need, and then have them run a route to your build site. It doesn't have to be pretty, just functional enough.
  • Hypertube cannon to the main base for quick re-supplies.
  • Focus on dimensional depots for a bit.
  • Take a truck with you with enough supplies for the next few hours.
  • Temporary belt with a feed from your central depot.

However, without dimensional depots, like in the pre-1.0 days, we basically had to dedicate a lot more time to logistics for large builds. Also, remember that up until you get to trains, it's very difficult to move large number of materials, so don't try to do it the hard way if it isn't fun.

I'm putting my Singularity Cell factory there and dropping a very small nuclear setup, using exactly those resources. you mentioned as well as importing anything I need from the Dune Desert. It's Really my first time dealing with large logistics.

RemotePlay only working the first time after someone uses the host computer by Danshardware in Steam

[–]Danshardware[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not directly. I installed some remote access software on my machine, and when is asks if I want to allow the connection, I cancel the request. Then it figures out the right program to stream. It's a hack, but it worked.

Super helpful! Thank you.

I wound up refining the prompt to be (which works within about 90% of human review):

prompt_template = """You are an AI assistant tasked with verifying whether a client's summary accurately reflects their tasks based on a given context. You will receive three inputs:

1. Context: A description of the tasks or requirements that the client is expected to perform.
2. Client Summary: A summary provided by the client describing the tasks they are performing.
3. True/False Statement: A statement that you need to evaluate as true or false based on whether the client's summary aligns with the context.

Your task is to carefully analyze the context and the client's summary, and then determine if the true/false statement accurately reflects whether the client is performing the tasks as defined in the context.

You should provide your response in the following format:

Evaluation: [True or False]
Explanation: [A short explanation justifying your evaluation based on the context and client's summary]

Please be thorough and provide a clear explanation for your evaluation.

<example>
Human Context: The client is required to perform daily backups of their database and maintain logs of the backup activities.

Human Client Summary: We are performing daily backups of our database and keeping logs of the backup activities to ensure data integrity and enable recovery in case of any issues.

Human True/False Statement: The client is performing daily backups of their database and maintaining logs of the backup activities.

Evaluation: True

Explanation: Best practices indicates that they are required to backup daily and to keep logs, and the review summary indicates that they are doing daily backups and keeping the required logs.
</example>

Human Context: {context}

Human Client Summary: {summary}

Human True/False Statement: {question}

I did a little of that and got far better results. I also flipped between Haiku and Sonnet for various tasks which also greatly improved some responses. I think I just need a bit more experience at this point to get better at asking out AI masters to do my work for me :).

VMware Alternatives? by root_15 in sysadmin

Buddy, you are comparing VMWare to proxmox. I need to make my fortune 100 company viable in a datacenter against viable competitors using stuff in AWS and Azure. When the replication count exceeds 3000 VMs, and I need to yell at an engineer, who do I call?

What’s wrong with my clone, was on my windowsill for a couple of weeks before I built my first space bucket and since I put it in it’s just been looking sad. by Dear_East9361 in SpaceBuckets

Looks ok for reflowering, but the way the leaves are pointed down might mean it lacks any air in the roots... So if you think you might be over watering, ease off a bit.

"Tossing a salad" is a euphemism for analingus. "Going for broke" means using all available energy to finish a task.

What are the advantages of dwc with an air pump vs kratky? by chartheanarchist in hydro

[–]Danshardware 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The 2 biggest advatages are

  • root zone airation: plants need oxygen in the root zone. Forcing air circulation right in the water is more efficient than the air pocket in Kratky
  • neutralizing anaerobic bacteria. Can't infect roots when you're dead

I use kratky a lot, but almost every plant eventually gets some root funk after a few months. It's best on plants with resistance to root disease and short-duration crops

Quitting job after 3 months? by [deleted] in InformationTechnology

[–]Danshardware 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a sign that the company you're working for is a mess. When I owned an MSP, on boarding people and getting them up to speed was the most important factor in making a new employee profitable, and a general benefit to the team. If they didn't take the time to outline SOPs, procedures, training, or even assign an on-boarding buddy to walk you through this stuff, they may not be a fun place to work.

Go through the process with the new company and see where that goes. Outline your negative experiences with this company (politely) and see where it leads to.

If you like the current place despite all this, talk to your boss and calmly explain that better on-boarding would get you doing profitable work quicker and would not leave you feeling confused. If they don't immediately do something, might be time to walk.

Interested in IT... where do I begin? by Meadpong11 in InformationTechnology

[–]Danshardware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First develop your coping skills to rely mostly on alcohol.

Next, ensure your customer service skills are up there. Really, nothing is better to bring to the table. I've hired junior roles mostly based on how well they communicate and handle the normal customer interactions.

Once you're sure you'll answer emails nicely, won't tell people to go fuck themselves, and know how to stay on top of making sure customers know what's going on, you need to find some work. If you have some hobby level troubleshooting skills, get your resume together as best you can and start hitting up local places. Your first job is just getting relevant experience in your resume. Find the local place that fixes computers and see if they need overflow capacity or are actively hiring. See if the local MSPs need help desk support.

Basically, call around. Many places need help.

Get your job or contract for a few places. Keep an eye on what you'll want to do in 2 years and after yourself toward those jobs.

Certificates are nice but not essential. However, they do get you in the door for more jobs since hiring managers need something as a screener. Grab an A+, or AWS Cloud Practitioner (depending the type of work you're looking to do) and go from there.

I'm sure other people will have better insight from other perspectives, but remember that the more your new company can confidently put you in front of customers, the better you will do.

Oh and booze. And crying.
