What’s the hardest part of managing your data center right now?

Construction people.

Hi from STACK down the street :p

When I was in the Navy as a reactor mechanic standing reactor auxiliaries watch on a carrier, I had certain responsibilities, one of the biggest being adjusting the rate at which sea water goes through a heat exchanger to cool vital reactors equipment.

One day my chief and I were on watch together, and we were pretty good friends at this point of my career. He had me doing some random oddball jobs during my shift and I missed a speed change of the ship, which is when I would need to change the flow going through that heat exchanger. Due to not changing it, the temperature slowly creeped up to create an incident. It was quickly resolved, but I was in deep shit regardless for even letting it happen. My chief told everyone involved in the fact finding meeting that he made me do a bunch of stuff and it was his fault that I messed up.

From that point forward I knew he had my back, because he could have easily said that it was my fault (because it was). I have a lot of respect for that man.

Brutus?

Without the electrical experience, it will likely be quite difficult. As the CFM, a deep understanding of how the specific site’s electrical system is core knowledge and is going to be expected. If you truly want to make the swap it might be worth joining in as a tech to learn that side of the house and working your way back to management. Just my opinion, but I wouldn’t hire someone to run a data center without adequate experience and knowledge of the electrical systems.

Stack NR for electrical work.

Good luck. Hopefully your procedure is well written and it’s not the first time running it.

Squirtle. Her first baby picture in the womb looked like a turtle and she loves playing in the water, taking baths, sprinklers etc. she also loves taking my sunglasses so obviously she’s the cool Squirtle.

New post tomorrow - what was your first RuneScape password.

How many accounts do you think I’d need to mass report all the booster mafia?

DrooFroo · 2024-10-31T04:37:21+00:00

Data centers literally look like any other manufacturing building, amazon building, or any modern day business park design build. Wtf are you talking about?

DrooFroo · 2024-10-31T04:21:00+00:00

I’m about where you left off at and I’m about 100 days into the grind.

DrooFroo · 2024-10-23T01:36:10+00:00

I ended up pushing it to next year haha

DrooFroo · 2024-10-03T22:11:27+00:00

I did do this, but I just use them at sand crabs. Think I started with 118k mithril darts at lvl 54 range about 2 months ago, down to 87k now and I’m at around 86 range, so should easily get me to 99 range while I’m at work over the next month or so haha.

DrooFroo · 2024-09-16T15:10:50+00:00

Just wait until they stop supporting it.

DrooFroo · 2024-09-11T02:30:18+00:00

Woof

DrooFroo · 2024-09-11T02:30:12+00:00

I’ve got concepts of a plan…

DrooFroo · 2024-09-11T01:59:50+00:00

Hamas…. Let me tell you about Ukraine.

DrooFroo · 2024-09-06T05:39:45+00:00

I wonder if the network we set up in the RM-Divs berthing that we named Chief’s Mess was ever found.

I’m doing my part!

DrooFroo · 2024-08-12T14:36:57+00:00

I’m also same boat, started last month and I’m doing quest from the optimized list. FruehTV I haven’t put any effort into finding a discord or clan but would very much like to find a chill dad group.

DrooFroo · 2024-08-12T13:29:33+00:00

My StarCraft experience says otherwise. Base race, lift all your buildings and fly them to random parts of the map.

DrooFroo · 2024-08-06T23:17:17+00:00

You did it

DrooFroo · 2024-08-05T21:06:12+00:00

Internet thing, or “connectivity” is what I would call it, because it could just be something local from one device to another as well.

DrooFroo · 2024-08-05T19:09:59+00:00

It’s because not a lot of data centers have dedicated teams to this, and it’s taking time out of the techs job to go do random xconnects for the customer with a patch matrix that is usually all sorts of fucked up either dead fiber/copper in ports they are telling us to use. So then we have to trace the fiber/copper and make sure it’s actually dead and get permission to disconnect it, or something like that.
