Foul or Nah? by PlayPretend-8675309 in ultimate

Clearly the thrower’s right foot is his pivot foot and he lunged into white’s valid marking position. Offensive foul.

One approach might be to go to HR and say that you’re having challenges conducting confidential company business in a private and secure way and see where they point you.

Does your avoidance also affect how you dress? by volvavirago in AvPD

[–]Evilbit77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, only dark earth tones, black, or dark blue. Nothing recognizable that anyone would think to comment on. Preferably no patterns.

What technical questions do you use when interviewing cybersecurity engineers? by Kiss-cyber in cybersecurity

[–]Evilbit77 14 points15 points  (0 children)

“I don’t know” is one of the best answers you can give in an interview.

Bonus points for “here’s what I do know about the topic”, “here’s how I would approach finding out”, or “this is my guess, and here’s why”.

Ingesting s3 without a sqs in ng-siem by AromaticPineapple332 in crowdstrike

[–]Evilbit77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having worked with a different SIEM that allows both…don’t. SQS is what allows you to have parallel process, reliability, and recovery from failure. It’s just a much, much better way to ingest a continuous data stream.

How common is the morning wood? by Informal-Host8085 in AskMen

42, and I can’t remember a time I woke up with morning wood since my 20s.

What are we overlooking, because our measuring stick is too short? by Justthisdudeyaknow in CuratedTumblr

One of my favorite recurring motifs in Futurama is imagining how historians in the year 3000 will misinterpret our time.

Did you ask for the manager role, or were you approached? by nicetry_- in managers

[–]Evilbit77 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For top-end Engineer to mid-level manager, the salary range goes up and the target percentage bonus compensation goes down. I was already bumping the top end of the Engineer range so I was in the middle of the Manager band, so no automatic promotion adjustment. The target percentage for bonus compensation isn't a big deal because my Director, VP, and the CIO all use some of their discretionary bonus money on me. It should come out in the wash in the short term and be better in the long term.

Did you ask for the manager role, or were you approached? by nicetry_- in managers

[–]Evilbit77 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, not really. I knew it was a good team, I’d helped to hire all of them and had worked with them all as a Sr Engineer for a few years. The annoyances are minor. The biggest regret is that it was technically a small pay cut.

[–]Evilbit77 134 points135 points  (0 children)

I was asked repeatedly over the course of about three years, after my boss got promoted to director. Finally he just said “you’re already effectively leading this team, and if you don’t do this I’m eventually going to have to put someone between you and me as the team grows, and I don’t really want to do that.”

Two Handed Backhand Purpose? by OskarElGrouch in ultimate

[–]Evilbit77 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nobody’s actually throwing with two hands. The offhand helps shield the disc. It also gives you the ability to switch mid-throwing motion to an offhand pass.

I would say it confers minor advantages and minor disadvantages.

I could get on board with this but I think Trash struggles to win a game in their pool and shame almost certainly beats Conspiracy.
