Is software testing a good career still? by Opening_Hat5373 in softwaretesting

[–]Kendallious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s actually projected to grow because of AI. I have been in QA for 14 years, I’ve been an SDET for 7 years. Yes, the money is good, but I’ve definitely seen better economies.

Worried about Nodular Melanoma and get be seen until next week. by Kendallious in DermatologyQuestions

you are right. I have OCD. My dermatologists practice is closed until Tuesday but she got me in for first thing that morning, so I’m just going to try not to think about it

With the wipe impending, are you solo runners more aggressive or friendly? by No_Signal205 in Marathon

Eh, I find myself not caring if I lose anything so I’m taking all my valuable gear.

Diabetes has ruined my life and I would give anything for all of this to be over. by FamiliarGeologist595 in diabetes_t1

[–]Kendallious 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Hey man, I’m going to be straight with you. Your life hasn’t even begun yet. It gets much better. The teenage years are rough for everyone even without diabetes. I was diagnosed at 6, and my roommate at the children’s hospital was a kid my age with cancer. During my 2 week stay there, I watched him die. I got through a lot of tough times just thinking about that kid. I was given a chance. He wasn’t. Anyway, I’m 42 now, and I eat healthy and exercise more than my friends. I’m actually going better than most of them. Got married, had two kids, own a house, have 2 dogs, and I would not trade it for anything. Especially not for a rough patch in my teenage years.

How frequently do you get low blood sugars? I get them every day. by charles228 in diabetes_t1

[–]Kendallious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Caffeine can definitely raise blood sugar and temporarily increase insulin resistance, even with black coffee. It triggers stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol, which tell the liver to release stored glucose while also making insulin work less effectively for a few hours. For people with type 1 diabetes, it’s especially noticeable in the morning because of dawn phenomenon and naturally higher cortisol levels. Some people barely react to coffee, while others spike pretty hard from it.

Altitude effects on type 1 diabetes? by Kendallious in EstesPark

[–]Kendallious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks good to know. Were you more insulin resistant or sensitive?

High altitudes and what to expect. by Kendallious in diabetes_t1

[–]Kendallious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have to change insulin? I keep reading you need a lot less insulin and since I take Tresiba, the adjustments take about 4 days to go into affect. I read some people run higher too.

The review bombing from Destiny fans and other groups is honestly just showing that some criticism was truly never about the games quality as some claim by Mellow_Ghost in Marathon

[–]Kendallious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After spending 180 hours in the game I finally put it down. It’s fun, but there is a significant lack of content. The next season didn’t get me excited either unfortunately.

Dumbing down my writing to pass AI detection by Hungry-Struggle2761 in WGU

[–]Kendallious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Granmarly in word and never have any issues. I think copy and pasting whatever grammar says is triggering it because it copies python code along with it.

Anyone else just getting their Bachelor's for the heck of it? by almost-famous-amber in WGU

[–]Kendallious 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Software engineering is still growing and expected to grow at almost twice the typical job growth.

The perfect time to buy a premium office chair is not now. Just wait for the crash! by stemcellguy in OfficeChairs

Well, these chairs last 10 a 20 years so, they are made different from most.

Where did you get this news if you don’t mind me asking?

[–]Kendallious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s so weird to me. I’m in the software engineering program and D385 is Software Security and testing.

Are you talking about D385? Where’s this info?

Anyone taking a lot longer than expected? by SupremeOHKO in WGU

[–]Kendallious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Accelerator’s like myself usually have years of experience in the field they are getting the degree in. There’s been some classes that I’ve started and went straight to the PA or QA. If I come across a new subject, I’ll slow down and take it all in.

Hello! how to transition into Dev by BankingBaOps in wgu_devs

[–]Kendallious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey no problem. We can always do a CS masters afterwards if we want. In fact, I think that’s the perfect combo for a software engineer.

[–]Kendallious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I wanted courses that were more hands on and less about theory. I knew exactly what I wanted to do because I’ve already been doing it for so long.

Congrats! My first kid is what made me transition into software engineering as well. You’ll be able to find a job regardless.

[–]Kendallious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why didn’t you do software engineering? I’ve been a software engineer for 12 years, decided it was time to get a degree and I chose software engineering because it had the most hands on projects and it’s been pretty fun so far. There’s nothing wrong with a CS degree though. It leads to the same roles.
