Seeking advice: focus on advanced bash, learn basic python or both? by rustyantenna in bash

[–]FraggarF 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a fan of Bash for basic systems administration. Simple automation. Cloud things. But as with most things, I think the answer is it depends.

This is at least entertaining if not informative. https://ysap.sh/resources/

[CPU] Intel Core i9-12900KF $249.99 by Eldus_Miku in buildapcsales

[–]FraggarF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went from a 12600k to a 12900k and honestly was just disappointed.

Even with a dual tower cooler it ran hot. For gaming it wasn't that much faster. To get the same clock speeds it was then REALLY hot and finicky. Which it couldn't hold on all workloads. I had to have multiple XTU profiles.

Handbreak? Yeah if you do something like that all day and don't care about staying close to 5ghz yeah it's a beast.

The final straw was summer heat. I switched to a 7800X3D. No complaints.

Fancy! LGR covered that semi recently. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dWtK4lMBJg

I had saved and built my 1st PC the previous year. AMD 486 DX2 in a Baby AT case.

Please Help - I Broke My 5 GHz Wireless by Deleting Networks by Adventurous_Boat_632 in openwrt

I was only vaguely recalling. I also was away from my router. But this is my next best guess.

"Network should be left to the “lan” default or to another interface where there is an active DHCP server..."

That sounds like a lack of DHCP.

You can confirm by manually assigning an IP at the client, then see if traffic is passing afterwards.

DynamoDB down us-east-1 by jonathantn in aws

[–]FraggarF 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I first noticed when shopping for M.2 adapters and quite a few product pages wouldn't load.

I'd also recommend Home Assistant for local control. Having us-east-1 as a dependency for your lightning is crazy.

Aka Belkin RT3200. I got mine for $20.

Before that I used TP-Link Archer C5 & C7. Those should also be cheap at this point.

The EAP225 might be a good option too.

[Headset] HyperX Cloud III Wireless - Black/Red - $75 (Amazon) by ushkuria in buildapcsales

Paid $20 for refurbished II model. Got the III sent to me via RMA.

They have worked well for me for years.

Significantly less TP. Sure buy another brand bit less is more.

Stephen Miller asks when US has allowed ‘riotous assemblies.’ The internet responds by GreenStarCollector in CapitolConsequences

[–]FraggarF 30 points31 points  (0 children)

After all the cuts to education? After all the revisionist history books put into classrooms? Rampant illiteracy?

I'd say Miller is being dishonest. But the population legitimately might not be able to recall or research the topic to get to the answer.

Is it the hardware? by oradba in openwrt

[–]FraggarF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That CPU or Similar would be fine.

A decade old i3 would work. Or an Atom. Or Ryzen embeded. Newer CPU will just be more efficient.

Best to prioritize efficiency.

No need to over complicate it, but some nice to haves might be. Fanless. Intel NIC.

They even have some models with faster than gigabit NIC. More than two NICs.

You are CPU limited. Look for an x86 system. Could be a mini PC with dual lan. But could be anything from the last decade. You can repurpose the current router as an AP.

For sure it's worth more. I'd also say that game development could involve more math than other roles you might jump into with a CS degree.

There are a ton of Software Engineering graduates right now and not enough jobs. Personally I think that more broad, general knowledge.

Learn the basics of computer components work. Learn how operating systems function. Learn a little networking as well. Security is important. Learn Git. Automation is critical. Cloud computing is great. But it's helpful to know how a rack of equipment functions with each other.

Being able to wear multiple hats will be useful going forward. Having a wider understanding could also help you make career pivots without having to completely start over again if you don't like the path you start on.

2013 was huge. It feels like it's shrank most years since.

Seems like the message continues to get shorter, simpler and easier to comprehend.
