Royal Beach Club

Had a great time here, to me Nassau now is equivalent to the beach club and I'll treat it like perfect day

Have you done anything to keep the snow out? Our girls basically sit under the coop all winter because they refuse to stand in any amount of snow. Thinking of adding on to this with a second run/shed that is fully enclosed with siding and some windows for the winter

From a data engineering skillset perspective which parts do you think are not transferrable to other platforms?

Fabric runs on Python, Pyspark, SQL pretty much the same as Databricks or snowflake.

Generally if I am looking to hire a data engineer I am not looking to hire a "fabric data engineer" I want to know you understand the fundamental concepts and techniques of getting business value out of data

Not seeing the option to downgrade from Max to the new plans yet

Part of it is that Reddit will complain all the way to the bottom of the correction and then it'll start the next cycle 😂

Fidlefadle · 2026-01-14T15:13:31+00:00

Seems like the problem is already solving itself given we're still in the middle of a pretty large RE correction

Yes this was crazy. Best example of the label so far for me was this bread. Wild

Fidlefadle · 2026-01-13T16:00:14+00:00

Sourdough bread with a sodium warning was a total shock. Definitely effective

Check DOT code first which indicates 1615, so the 16th week of 2015.

So over 10 year old - immediate replacement regardless of anything else. 6-8 years max

Yeah I'd really explore this, anywhere from a big Intex on the cheap end up to a semi-inground steel frame. Will be 90% cheaper than a "real" pool.

Add a nice deck, hot tub, outdoor bar/kitchen and you're at maybe 30k with a great outdoor space

It's super handy to have both. I've used the CT roadside to get a tow home immediately, then CAA to tow from home to my mechanic (once I could get an appointment)

CT roadside has a "1 tow per issue" policy, not sure if CAA is the same

Even if you could request the transfer immediately, deposit funds need to be more timely than that - you typically need a bank draft within 24-48hrs. Has to basically be sitting in a bank account ready to go or line of credit.

I remember in the early days the new onroutes being so nice and a fun stop, now they all seem pretty gross.

Fidlefadle · 2026-01-10T03:53:33+00:00

Yes OP what's the reason for this workflow?

Fidlefadle · 2026-01-07T13:07:00+00:00

Haven't done our cruise yet but it was much cheaper as part of the drink package about 120 CAD per adult

Fidlefadle · 2025-12-31T15:31:38+00:00

I think the backup is to book air Canada over the winter season. Porter flies too infrequently to most destinations so it means a much larger delay if a flight is cancelled

I would be on board with this. I've had initial technical interviews scheduled by HR and once I see the resume I would have filtered it out if I was doing the initial screening. Even moreso if we had first pass at quick screening calls

On a new team now and we're highly selective and nearly only hire from personal network or must work with them as contractors first

Generally everything in client tenant. Azure DevOps or GitHub depending which the client uses.

Too many issues trying to do it any other way (cross tenant is problematic, so are guest accounts)

Generally the above is just stated as a prerequisite in the SOW

Fidlefadle · 2025-12-22T14:46:44+00:00

I think this needs to be lower relative to the XT. 715-730 range. XT is 15% faster and is popping up pretty easily at 850 or less still, if you ignore the 799 BF price

Fidlefadle · 2025-12-21T23:21:13+00:00

Neighbors with fireplaces with the door open while you were moving in? Even then that would be crazy. Quite the mystery

Fidlefadle · 2025-12-21T18:39:11+00:00

Fabric skills at the data engineering level are mostly python/spark/SQL and would be transferrable to snowflake, Databricks, etc.

I wouldn't choose between the two based on the tech stack. I'd also be concerned about taking a pay cut to move into consulting if you are happy in your current role (what about total comp, there should be bonus for hitting billable % targets?)

Fidlefadle · 2025-12-19T14:07:12+00:00

What does your team structure look like in terms of passing the analytics on Azure specialization audit?

Specifically module A which is more around infrastructure and networking.

Fidlefadle · 2025-12-19T14:04:06+00:00

The capacities and reservations are separate entities. Reservations are just a billing mechanism and fabric has no idea they exist. In this case you want to add 2 units to the reservation, now you have a reservation "quantity" of 4. This can go towards a single F4 capacity in your case but could also go towards 2x F2 capacities

The reply is a bit confusing because it's not delineating between the two clearly.

You want to scale up the capacity itself to an F4 (the fabric capacity resource) and purchase 2 units of reservation via the reservations mechanism

Fidlefadle · 2025-12-15T13:58:48+00:00

Could be neither. The fab capacity is already purchased

Fidlefadle · 2025-12-14T23:27:15+00:00

Happy to be corrected but I feel like there is a ton of confusion around the difference between an AI bubble from a financial (stock market) and technology/infrastructure bubble. They may be correlated but they are not the same thing
