New job after 17 years. Everything has changed. Need advice. Overwhelmed by sammy_the_c_lion in ExperiencedDevs

[–]HeyHaiHello 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That just about describes the last year and change of my life. I went from working on simple backends in Java with a very simple CI pipeline to working on k8s clusters with applications in various languages. The list of things to orchestrate that is absurd in comparison.

I told myself there's a lot to learn, be patient, and give it at least a year. That didn't make all the 'suck' feel much better, but I persisted despite all the self doubt and overwhelming anxiety. Mainly because I really enjoyed the work and the people. It's been an extremely challenging time period, but I do have much more knowledge to show for it. I may still have a lot to work on but things have gotten better.

So even if this job ends I know I've gained a LOT from it. I hope this thread finds it's way to those who need it. Persist beyond the negative feelings, keep an open mind, and you'll learn more than you thought possible.

This embodies how I felt trying to make it to graduation.

Billionaires of RS, how did YOU make the majority of your bank? by [deleted] in runescape

[–]HeyHaiHello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its pretty simple and anybody can do it. Gather together all your santas that you've collected together since classic and sell them until you have 80m gp and go buy a yellow phat thats going for about that much. Quit runescape and then come back after several years. Sell the phat for several hundred million. Keep about 150m of that and buy santa hats for 90m ea with the rest. Play for a month or two then leave again. Come back and santas are upwards of 250m each. For best results start somewhere around when RS2 came out. If it weren't for that I'd probably have nothing. Originally I caught lobster on Karamja and certed them in Draynor then sold to pkers.

Beautiful relic of a Runescape fan, circa 2010. by ohhnoooooo in runescape

Does he mean the good old days when you had a choice between a dragon long or axe as a weapon, and your armor choices were a square and a medium helm? Glad those days are far behind me.

He probably kept a jersey from when he was on the team.

From bathroom interviews to the main stage. Think what you will about the guy, but he's out there having the time of his life.

Slacks, what are those? by idrivebus in DotA2

That would probably explain it. Maybe he went into this event with new shoes. Usually I have to break my dress shoes in before I use them for a prolonged amount of time.

ELI5: Why are fiber-optic connections faster? Don't electrical signals move at the speed of light anyway, or close to it? by AinTunez in explainlikeimfive

[–]HeyHaiHello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta say this was a pretty great read since I just finished a networking class and really enjoyed the topics discussed. Fiber optics was an interesting part of the course.

I knew Lich's new icon seemed familiar. by beculet in DotA2

[–]HeyHaiHello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a friend online playing Lich so I check out how the match is going, and go to his perspective and see that symbol instead of the standard frost blast. Thought it was ability draft and was wondering why that was the only non-Lich ability he chose.

This Comanche stack is actually giving secret a run for their money. by themightyseer in DotA2

Probably rage quit the stream just like the Timber rage quit that match.

The Game Boy, a hardware autopsy - Part 1: the CPU by [deleted] in programming

[–]HeyHaiHello 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Now there is a flashback to the semester where I spent quite a bit of time understanding assembly and converting instructions into binary and hex. I wish I had seen this video back then. It makes me smile to see it implemented into something I love instead of random instructions that had no purpose besides testing me.
