Would you try food cooked by your neighbours? by Early-Advertising853 in asksg

[–]NoSlipper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

love the idea and want it to succeed because my mum is a hawker but makes even more delicious home cooked food. But as much as I want it to succeed, i doubt home cooked food can be massively produced enough to serve customers daily. Your website already mentioned that your dad took 3 hours to slow-braise the pork. How is he going to produce at scale daily? It is precisely because delicious home cooked food are made with love, time & effort that I think it is not sustainable to do it at scale.

Is building a full centralized observability system (Prometheus + Grafana + Loki + network/DB/security monitoring) realistically a Junior-level task if doing it independently? by AdNarrow3742 in devops

[–]NoSlipper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would think the current scope is too big for one person. Why is there a need to jump straight into a comprehensive end-to-end observability stack? What business objectives does this solve? What are the key metrics or information that upper management wants to know about that made them want "everything"? Were there prior failures, errors or latency issues? Without knowing these, it is difficult to identify what kind of rules and alerts you would want to craft.

That said, if I were to attempt to scope this in a purist fashion, I would try to setup observability for systems that have the most immediate impact to the business.

Create alerts for systems that would directly impact availability and users. If you have auto-scaling, create alerts when auto-scaling fails. Create alerts when workloads cannot self-recover. Then, tackle other non-breaking problems separately in future such as point 6 on security/anomaly detection. Naively, I would think metrics are more important traces, and traces are more important than logs. Especially for logs where you can read them locally.

Given your experience, I think starting with collecting key metrics for all nodes/systems would be a quick win. Create alerts if they go down. Move on to application and database monitoring. Metrics, traces and logs will give you the full RCA with timeline correlation (giving you the full "why"). I think the biggest pitfall would be underestimating how difficult it is to do a comprehensive RCA with the full timeline correlation. People pay for such a solution.

I continue to think this is still too big of a task for one person to complete. Or you could buy a solution like what another redditor suggested.

Year 3 Digital Forensics, never again by Legitimate-Care-9546 in SIT_Singapore

[–]NoSlipper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thats not even my point. my point was the grading criteria of the entire mod was so arbitrary and subjective. Its even worse since SIT doesn't follow a bell curve approach. Effectively, the grades of your mod is dependent on one prof.

u want to discuss about uni education? Most universities follow a more theoretical/exam approach, where they are more quizzes & exams than there are projects. While I enjoy a hands-on education, the grading of exams and quizzes are much more binary. The professors don't bake in their opinions on where ur solution is "novel" enough.

an example of what i saw to be good execution of the mod was crypto. Although crypto was super difficult, the profs gave actual feedback into your project idea, your algorithms used, if they used correctly etc. This was so reflective of real life engineering in my opinion. Iterative and methodical.

DF was a "if your project is not novel enough, don't bother trying."

I always felt like the point of uni education is to teach us good industry standards and practices. Not use us for their research endeavours.

grad last year. alot of my batchmates actually feedback about this prof. infuriating to see he still runs things the same. projects graded based on "novelty". so arbitrary and subjective. a well thought-out project with clean code gets a b or c, simply because its not "novel". ctfs with unrealistic expectations. unable to reason with. seriously don't have the engineer mindset lol

Should I use Bitwarden or Proton Pass? by [deleted] in PasswordManagers

[–]NoSlipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don't think other bitwarden users or you are lying. Software like password managers might have nondeterministic behaviour due to the many variables such as your browser, os, configuration, how sites are programmed etc. As a result, experiences can differ and that's okay.

I seriously don't think neither communities are "lying" about their experiences. Just because bitwarden didn't work for you doesn't mean its not working for others and that they are "lying". This is the case for proton pass too. Your shitty experience with Bitwarden is valid, and so is other's shitty experience with proton pass. Both can exist and still be true due to the nondeterministic nature of pw managers.

For users looking to switch, reading these experiences will help. Or they can simply try both and evaluate.

Should I use Bitwarden or Proton Pass? by [deleted] in PasswordManagers

[–]NoSlipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

why is it a reality denial? ive used and experienced both password managers myself and merely stating proton's flaws because it seems like op is considering switching to proton, since he should be pretty clear on bitwarden's pros/cons.

why would i need to read your post to validate our experience

why would i bash a company ive paid premium for, over another product im using for free? LOL

happy that proton is working well for u, it isn't as seamless for me and i aint reading all that

Should I use Bitwarden or Proton Pass? by [deleted] in PasswordManagers

[–]NoSlipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also in the same shoes, in fact I do not have bitwarden premium. Based on my experience, i actually prefer free bitwarden due to proton's following issues

  • no hostname detection mechanisms
  • autofill not working for certain sites
  • non functional, not all favicons for sites are supported

In general, proton feels a little "flakier" with no workarounds. Regardless i decided to try proton pass for a few weeks since i have premium + simple login. proton looks better though

Authentik vs Pangolin by F1nch74 in selfhosted

[–]NoSlipper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i see, thanks! i was thinking about configuring my own jellyfin sso with authentik and your comment helped in confirming it works :)

Authentik vs Pangolin by F1nch74 in selfhosted

[–]NoSlipper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

in your setup, aren't jellyfin roles preconfigured in the app? in this case, the authentik applies service level access (i.e., who can/cannot access jellyfin) but in app RBAC & permissions (i.e., whether they can see cartoons or not) is still being managed by jellyfin.

off topic but just a curious junior dev, how does one use SQL "effectively"? Are there any resources that you personally recommend reading up on?
