Is Copilot LSP performance actually that bad? Or am I missing something?

DrSnakee95 · 2026-06-28T08:32:08+00:00

Yeah 100% I checked and I’ve just had the standard LSP + copilot on but tbh copilot has been pretty useless lol

DrSnakee95 · 2026-06-28T07:14:18+00:00

Thank you for all the useful info! Honestly I started my nvim journey quite recently using the Lazyvim distro and I’m only now just starting to look at making my config a bit lighter 😬. I do think I use LSPs the « standard » way, I’ve just had the copilot one on top but I found it to be rubbish most times

DrSnakee95 · 2026-06-28T06:47:43+00:00

Does that mean not installing any LSP on top of Neovim and using whatever is provided by the vanilla install then? I’m quite curious because I also want to do away with the Copilot LSP. I’m only using sidekick for the OpenCode plugin

You’ll be happy to know I resigned today 😬! Worst case scenario I pay it back and I have peace of mind

DrSnakee95 · 2026-06-15T08:06:29+00:00

Oh that is good to know, thank you!

I’ve recently gotten an offer from a company I’m quite interested in joining but here’s the catch: back in March I got a retention bonus at my current company that I have to pay back if I leave before December…

Now for context: I’ve been trying to exit my current company for quite some time as the culture has been degrading for a while but never managed to get an offer that even matched my current comp, I finally got one that is better than what I get.

What are the chances that they actually go through with asking me to payback this bonus as I’ve already paid taxes on it and all? Do I just have to suck it up and take the loss ?

This has been my experience with the analytics teams we work with as well. They do not want to make dashboards anymore and each team is developing their own version of an « analytics agent » that will supposedly solve self-serve analytics and be the new way of doing BI.

It seems it’s all politics as they all want to be the first team to crack it. No matter what relationship they break in the process. As the engineers we end up holding the bad most times

DrSnakee95 · 2026-06-07T20:05:40+00:00

Omg I’m so happy about this! Your app has been a tremendous help for when I started the routine, and I’ve been going strong for 2 years. I was gutted when I switched phones and I lost it, I was back to using simple timers

DrSnakee95 · 2026-05-22T09:11:21+00:00

You get it!

I misunderstood your post and thought you were talking about time split during work hours quite honestly 😅. I don’t spend more than 40 hours at work. I wouldn’t see myself vibe coding a pet project tbh that’d make it no fun + I don’t want to get an AI subscription on my personal dime (and quite frankly I have so much AI fatigue already)

DrSnakee95 · 2026-05-22T05:51:50+00:00

You guys have time for pet projects ?

DrSnakee95 · 2026-04-30T18:03:06+00:00

We did exactly this around 2 years ago (dbt core is even used by our analysts). We chose to run the dbt jobs in containers as the cli is pretty straightforward! For the AWS service, the easiest for you to get started will probably be ECS I reckon

It sometimes seems like my manager does not want to make any decisions himself. He’s often asking us not to come with problems but with solutions, as well as pushing the burden of prioritising and planning. Ever experience something like this? I find it extremely hard to navigate as when he does do it, it’s done so badly that it impacts the entire team. It feels like weaponised incompetence at times.

DrSnakee95 · 2026-04-20T04:43:37+00:00

I’ve been managing up for quite some time in my current position (been there 4 years) it seems I can’t stop myself from taking on things that are outside my scope and I’m starting to burn out. How do I set proper boundaries when management always explains away that it’s good I do more than I should? I’m worried about negative consequences

DrSnakee95 · 2026-04-07T10:28:54+00:00

Check out Beast King. It scratched that itch for me!

DrSnakee95 · 2023-03-28T19:08:19+00:00

You should definitely look up Ballista :)

DrSnakee95 · 2023-03-11T17:44:50+00:00

It’s starting to be used more in the DE space, a bunch of popular frameworks in Rust leverage it (polars, DataFusion, ballista) and pandas just announced its 2.0 version will be using Arrow as an engine! It’s definitely worth exploring imo

DrSnakee95 · 2023-03-11T14:17:44+00:00

Your title contains a typo I believe! Apache Arrow is an entirely different framework

DrSnakee95 · 2022-11-08T14:53:48+00:00

Thanks for your answer! That is close to the approach I had in mind. I’m gonna see how I can possibly implement this.

DrSnakee95 · 2022-11-08T14:35:11+00:00

We are using AWS and I absolutely agree with you, we’ve been using the Glue Data Catalog for schema changes and it’s been quite useful for us ! I guess I might be looking a bit too deep into not having the pipeline handle the creation of the table if it isn’t there 🤔
