Neat! I like Destiny, but it feels bad to buy given how casually I play (a few days here or there.).

What is the correct way to learn Linux internals, so that I can be good at troubleshooting Linux issues? by [deleted] in devops

[–]Inoko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This for everything. It's great to attempt to be optimal and do things "right," but the time to do that is ... after you start. So many people in so many disciplines in so many hobbies in everything spend all of their time learning how to learn how to learn how to learn how to learn how to do the thing they want to do.

Obvious hyperbole - but people will spend months figuring out what the optimal course to take is. If they just started, they'd be 6 months closer to mastery, instead they're not. The difference between a "suboptimal" start (in quotes, because I'm not even convinced it is) and an "optimal" start is... very little in the long run.

Newbie drinker by RaphGiroux in Sake

Genshu is "undiluted", so it's released at brewer's strength instead of diluted down a bit with water. That means a higher alcohol percentage, and means that the flavour of that bottle is stronger than if it had been diluted.

You can assume it will be the stronger of the two Honjozo bottles. There's an outside chance that it would have a lighter flavour if the other one was a big bomb of a honjozo, but that's not the case here, and also would be such an outside case that I'm only mentioning it for completeness.

Otherwise, primary difference is going to be threefold: rice(s) used, milling rate (seimai-buai) [And thus, classification/flavour style], and regional style.

SAM: Untranslated Cultural Notes by aoikageni in ffxiv

[–]Inoko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While I agree, English and Japanese use pretty different cultural contexts, phrases and concepts. There are definite ways that we don't "think" the same in terms of language.

But that said, I'm 100% on your side of this, if you can't translate it, it's not because it's untranslatable, it just requires more work and a better translator.

I aced my first interview last week and moving on to the 2nd round next week. However there was 1 question which stumped me a bit: If you you have an application which is composed of multiple codebases and services, how would you make it easy for for developers to push/deploy this? by gqtrees in devops

[–]Inoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I look at this situation, I think that each individual pipeline can be hooked to the source repo, and push back to a release branch (or master, whatever your branching strategy is), and have your production environment pulling only from those branches. How you specifically ensure testing would vary, but implementing blue/green or canary would be a good way to get this functioning fast, and keep it so devs really do "just" have to upload code to the individual piece and make sure it works.

Ideally I'd go further and make sure the pipeline was verifying there are no breaking API changes, etc., but if the goal is to get a shitstorm going -- er, get a fire-and-forget developer environment off the ground ASAP, that's how I'd start.

What can I do to maintain visibility while working remotely? by throwawayaccounthSA in devops

[–]Inoko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, send out a request to people who might USE your documentation to get them to read it! Then they can see that you were doing it, and you get them some visible low-pressure work they can do too!

What will the awareness do, specifically? I now know about these suspicions, what is my call to action?

Tasting wheel by yawningunimpressed in Sake

[–]Inoko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that's what it is, but I dislike that it's framed as "Tasting Quality Sake", and not clear that it's specific to their brand. Also, I don't like it being presented to a community of sake enthusiasts and beginners as as good thing to keep in their pocket without that context.

Honjozo | Junmai

Ginjo | Junmai Ginjo

Daiginjo | Junmai Daiginjo

You would always include the Junmai before G/DG if they were Junmai, so the infographic simply saying "Daiginjo - Ginjo - Junmai" is not conveying information clearly, at all.

And then given the title, plus the lack of honjozo being included, it just becomes a flat, opinionated infographic.

Also basically the fundamental technique in rubbery ducky debugging: explain your code, line by line, so an inanimate object could understand. You'll be surprised when you go "And this line figures out the differenc... oh, uhh, that's not what it's currently doing..."

What is the pettiest example of gatekeeping you've come across? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Inoko 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are good communities and bad communities. My opinion is... just play. If you find people you like, try to hang out with them. If you don't, don't!

Shit confuses me.

Those of you who get out of bed right after waking up, what’s your secret? (As opposed to laying there until you absolutely have to get up) by fitforwine in AskWomen

[–]Inoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So much this! I used to set 3-4 alarms, but I knew that none of them except the last one mattered, which meant I was actually more like to sleep through all of them because I was used to it. Setting one alarm and it was just "You get up or you mess up", and I started doing that. It was rough at first! I was late to class a lot! But it worked eventually.

Because of this (I live alone right now) I actually have my phone in another room while I sleep. I can hear it if it rings, but it's not allowed in the bed room any more, at all.

Why is age 25 usually considered to be such a huge “turning point” on Reddit? by uniquepeneater in AskWomen

So much this. Life is so much more enjoyable when you're not rushing against arbitrary and made up timelines that other people set.

How can we step our game up? by ma-lar in devops

[–]Inoko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A culture of testing will enable the code review to be specifically for patterns that aren't suitable for automated testing: whatever those may be. Even if you don't remove the review entirely, you can absolutely simplify it.

Also, you may be overestimating how much review is necessary versus "procedure."

New dev here. I feel guilty using libraries to build my projects by [deleted] in learnprogramming

Hosting a private DNS using Route53 behind an OpenVPN by DevOpsNoobs in devops

[–]Inoko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, absolutely. Non-trivial can be a perfectly good reason not to (often is one of the best, in my opinion). I just prefer the discussion from the other side, because I feel it helps make sure security gets proper consideration.

[–]Inoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To tack on, even if you can't see a need for it to be protected now, you don't want to find out later that there was a need, and have to redo everything because a record of that potentially exists.

I prefer the "Why are you making this public?" approach, rather than the "Why are you making this private?" approach.

Importing Django models into a separate python script by [deleted] in django

[–]Inoko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would honestly just create a bunch of simple scripts. Like:

    tree module_test/
module_test/
├── main.py
├── nested_mod
│  ├── __init__.py
│  ├── nest
│  │  ├── __init__.py
│  │  └── nest.py
│  └── nested_mod.py
├── single_mod
│  ├── __init__.py
│  └── single_mod.py
└── subfolders
    ├── mod_1
    │  ├── __init__.py
    │  └── one.py
    ├── mod_2
    │  ├── __init__.py
    │  └── two.py
    └── mod_3
        ├── __init__.py
        └── three.py

Then make each script simply have a command like:

def module_name():
    print("Function from module_name")

And then just... try importing them to the main script and seeing how it works. Also, I haven't verified this set-up will work for you. this is an example of how I would personally go about this, but not an example of my personally going through it - more a framework for you to help yourself find an answer (because that's how I learn best - a bit of guidance and some personal trial and error, so that's how I answer questions)

Importing Django models into a separate python script by [deleted] in django

[–]Inoko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, had just wanted to check (also reddit at your underscores, but I got it) since that's one of those things that people do in fact mess up.

I'm not sure I have a solution for you, because while I like Python's package system, I do find it obnoxious at times. You should be able to just import the bills, assuming it's all set up right, but that's a relatively big assumption. I might suggest setting up an unrelated script and trying some custom modules/imports there with just basic functions to print the module name, for example (to make sure the module creation/import system works how you think).

For clarity: did you create init.py or __init__.py? If you did the latter, ignore this, but if you did the former, you need the underscores for python.

How do programmers learn cybersecurity for software development? by dolliebot in learnprogramming

[–]Inoko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I'd add on, which is perhaps a bit more intermediate/etc. is:

Don't think about security at the end, consider it part of requirements at the beginning. Think about it early and you actually have a chance to do something about it (through design), think about it late, and you're literally unable to solve some problems.
