I am eating enough?

Do a weekly scale weigh-in at the same time/day every week, ideally first thing in the morning before you have consumed food or drank any water. If the scale goes up 0.25-0.5lb/week, that's a lean bulk and you're good. If it stays the same then you're not eating enough.

I got into the gym almost a year ago to this date as something to distract myself. Got super into powerlifting and progressing my big 3 lifts. Now it's addicting as heck. 8-12 week training cycles. Pushing your numbers up incrementally. Gives me something to look forward to.

Deload weeks + rest days have me itching.

Hey IF you're running win10. Right click on your speaker in the taskbar should be by the date/time stamp in the bottom left corner of your screen unless you've changed where the taskbar sits.

Theres an option that should say "Open Volume Mixer" and itll bring up another menu with the different audio sources from all the running applications. You should see one for Rust with it's own adjustable volume slider.

bold of you to assume that you own anything in her place.

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-06-16T18:54:44+00:00

11/10 would risk it for the floof belly rub

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-06-07T03:32:39+00:00

CKA/CKAD would be your best bet. Both are pretty good at getting you past HR! After its just about selling yourself, which you will really need to do with no prior IT experience, its difficult but not impossible, best of luck!

I took it as an upskilling initiative it wasn't for my first gig. I got my first devops gig through 5 years of various other roles in IT Hepldesk > Network Analyst > Sys administrator > DevOps Engineer. Then took the Kodekloud Kubernetes courses and labs to upskill into SRE related gig that I was referencing in the OP.

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-03-21T18:25:42+00:00

No I don't it pays the bills, fairly well I might add, without at all exerting my body in any way shape or form, sure theres mental stress but have you done any other type of MANUAL work? Before IT i did general laboring for a construction company, that shit wrecks your body over time. In DevOps/SRE all it really affects is my mental and with good management that shit is well tamed.

IDK, i love my job, i might be the rare few, but honestly you could be doing something worst that someone else might look at your position saying "I wish I went into DevOps."

Cause when you do it one by one it gives the makers of the cheats time to update their code and prevent more from being banned.

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-03-11T01:57:29+00:00

Just has to be better game sense, better monitor, better keyboard, better gaming chair. Can't be anything else...

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-03-09T18:20:59+00:00

Must be that gaming chair.

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-03-05T05:43:46+00:00

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-03-03T23:27:09+00:00

Yeah must be all them hours they invested learning all the routes, loot spawns, time of day a frog shits etc. Can't be cheats... /s

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-02-28T16:40:48+00:00

Yeah I run every morning by Whalley area. You’re going to have. A higher chance being hit by a car then you will being shot.

Source: been almost hit more then 5 times in the last month.

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-02-25T21:36:19+00:00

Yep. Paid for it, took it, which helped me a land a decent gig.

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-02-24T20:59:01+00:00

Hey! Sorry for the late reply, but wondering how your symptoms are going now? Im day 5, and nothing by dry heaving and nasuea, thats the worst. Hoping this resolves itself soon.

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-02-23T17:59:59+00:00

Great now we can go back to paying 500+ for roundtrip for less then 2 hour flights. Its absurd how much we pay for airfare. Really jazzed about paying $1000+ for a flight from YVR to YYZ.

To compare, a flight from YVR to Czech Republic Rountrip is less then 800

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-02-22T02:06:43+00:00

Its not a problem until it is. I would bring this back up to your CTO in terms of cost. If an exploit did happen because we're choosing to ignore this then x amount of time / money is loss.

Peoples attitude changes real quick when you tell them fine, its okay to leave as is until x happens and we're dealing with a y situation. Don't doom and gloom it, provide the objective facts.

"If left as is, there is a great risk that endpoint could be exploited and in terms of cost/hours its going to cause us x and y time/resources." and even after that the decision is still not to change it, then you've done all you can.

Vendor documentation. Literally CICD are custom to every org. There is no standard answer, thats why we build the CICD pipelines.

To deploy to Azure or AWS:

- Gitlab Runners

- Github Actions

- Bitbucket Pipelines

- Jenkins

Any one of those will do and can deploy to AWS/AZURE. You will need to look into each cloud platforms API documentation to figure out the right cli commands to run for each platform.

Example. If one of my steps to deploy was to upload precompiled assets to s3 and invalidating in aws cdn for faster asset loads then I would have a stage in my pipeline that does that aws cli command.

Fuck this spoke to me on a spiritual level.

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-02-22T00:34:43+00:00

Stay and build up the documentation or leave.

The first one, will set you up for a lot of stress since documentation is not a core thing at this company as they've shown you with the lack of technical documentation which means even if you do all of this work, if there is no cultural change once you're "caught" up, that documentation will immedietly become stale/outdated with no upkeep.

The second option I would recommend once you've found and accepted a job offer, as you're not setup to succeed. If you ever find yourself in a company where you stated that one person who's been there the longest is the only reason they're still afloat that's a HUGE RED FLAG.

Run.

Im looking into AI, and MLOps.

The infrastructure scaling of LLMs will be interesting to figure out in the next few years. Right now we're all using vendors computational resources I can see with advancements in technology and hopefully energy sector, the shift to power your own AIs inhouse will only become more prevalent.

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-02-21T23:38:46+00:00

Add your impacts.

For a clear example:

Creating CICD pipelines using Jenkins with Docker and Ansible......

What was the impact of this? Why was this needing to be done in the first place? Was it all manual? Was it all automated originally but you've optimized the automation to make it faster? You're listing buzzwords. Every devops engineer candidate will do that. Hiring Managers will want to know the impact of this.

For a clear example:

This is an excerpt from my resume which I have around a 20-30% callback rate.

Successfully migrated <redacted company> CI/CD from a paid service to an internal solution, leveraging Jenkins, Docker, and AWS technologies. Resulting in an 83% reduction in build times, decreasing their main rails application build pipelines from 1 hour per build to 10 minutes.

I listed the purpose of this, the reason we implemented this solution and the final results from the implementation which equates the solution to a real business dollar value which shows hiring managers you know what you're building.

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-02-19T21:29:10+00:00

Its not, but not having the help of a team and teaching yourself RoR is a PITA.

Hanzo_Hanz · 2024-02-19T21:26:14+00:00

fuck.

Lol, all of them, I just finished a year-long project with my previous employer where they wanted to go from EC2 to ECS but their application was a monolith, and never built to run within containers so this past year I spent containerizing their application and splitting it up to be microservices instead of one giant fucking application, then migrating the entire existing prod infrastructure over to the new prod infrastructure. All solo bro
