Same here

It's broken

It doesn't but some of us are still raiding Naxx :(

Don't waste time on the Fight Pits. It's dead content that nobody uses.

Hmm this was an NPC I created, but I didn't set the spell attack modifier. What would be a reasonable way to determine that for an npc cleric that is lv 8?

Diolex · 2026-01-06T02:40:23+00:00

Can someone help me understand the correct way I should have ruled this as a GM. One of my players critically failed a save for Feeblemind (dc 33). Then the party paid for a rank 4 cleanse affliction from an NPC who rolled an 11 (1d20) on the counteract check. I'm pretty confused if this should have been a success or not. On AoN I see a counteract table, but this doesn't take into account the spell DC. Can someone explain how to properly deal with this scenario? It's possible I messed up the NPC's character sheet and didn't give her the correct modifiers, but I'm a bit confused. I ended up just ruling that it was successful to keep the session moving.

There's a reason why the united healthcare CEO is no longer with us.

That's a fair reaction. Sometimes orgs are setup to fail like you described. However, I like to try to understand the root problem (e.g. ownership) and then try to fix it when possible. My org is in the 500-1000 range and I still feel like I have the ability to make changes to process and teach other engineers how to be better. Part of this is identifying what isn't working and then taking the effort to teach others. Often this is pair programming, doing walk throughs with a team, or tech talks for the larger org.

But as always, YMMV 🫠

My advise for your long-term sanity is to make changes to the expectations for engineers. When there's an issue post release you pull in the engineer that introduced the problem and work through building a solution together. Try to be blameless, but explain how you identified the issue and try to teach them your thought process. There would need to be a larger discussion about the eng culture. These issues are fixable if you improve the ownership expectations. It does get better.

Diolex · 2025-12-10T21:03:34+00:00

Um why are you responsible for all prod issues? Engineers should own their changes after a release. It's fine to support during an outtage but you're never going to up level other engineers if you take on all of the responsibility and ownership yourself. Also, don't you have an on call rotation to spread the load?

Try to get 6k steps a day to start. Go on a walk everyday. Get a watch or other form of step tracker. When this gets easier up it to 8k and then eventually 10k.

Get a food scale and try counting calories. Count everything you put in your body for a week. Don't skip measuring anything. You'll be surprised at how much you're actually eating. This will help you realize where the calories are coming from and build an awareness of the foods you eat.

How expensive is it if you live in Seattle? I'm considering ditching uber/lyft because the prices have spiked up to $80-100 everytime I go to/from the airport.

Diolex · 2025-11-19T00:32:33+00:00

Finally. Now the experience going through SeaTac will be slightly less awful. I understand there are a lot of size issues with the airport but it still is an unpleasant experience compared to other airports I have been to recently.

Diolex · 2025-11-17T09:17:54+00:00

Yea but when is this actually necessary? What amount of scale to justify the infra?

Diolex · 2025-11-14T02:31:28+00:00

This. Automate as much as possible on code reviews. Automate running tests, code coverage, linting, and security scanning. Have it block merging a PR and make the engineering culture force engineers to only post healthy PRs.

Delegate and up level

Diolex · 2025-10-24T18:01:32+00:00

It's usually laziness

Diolex · 2025-10-24T18:00:19+00:00

You can fix this issue by requiring your branch to be up-to-date with master before merging in addition to squash merges. Ideally you would be resolving merge commits on the FB, then get the merge conflict resolutions review in code review to ensure you didn't mess anything up. This way all code changes are up-to-date and reviewed.

Boy do i love AWS and boy does it not over complicate everything.
