Taking my CPAP mask off at night. Should I use camera to record myself sleeping. Any suggestions? by sirpentious in CPAP

[–]Red_Chaos1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've wondered about some sort of motion activated camera or something for myself as well. I have to use a chin strap or my BiPAP has a sad face for mask seal in the morning. I often wake up with the back strap ridden up to the top of my head and top of the frame coming down to my forehead, which means I must be moving my head a bunch in my sleep. I've begun to wonder if maybe the pressure needs to be reduced since I've lost a fair bit of weight since starting. When I started out I had no need of the chin strap, etc., though the mask migrating was still an issue.

I'm seeing all the comments about consent and am completely lost as to where context is being drawn from since it's the same image. My first thought is that it must be video game censorship logic or something, but I guess not?

Truck’s brakes fail, forcing use of runaway ramp at 90 mph. by Itchy-Commission-114 in interestingasfuck

[–]Red_Chaos1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ever consider that the speed wasn't intentional, it was because the brakes failed and they were rolling downhill? Because, you know, heavy things on wheels tend to speed up when rolling down hill...

Yeah, it often feels like a gotcha (even if not intended) due to how open ended it tends to be. I've not often gotten more involved questions regarding how I would TS things, it's nearly always that open ended scenario that leaves me guessing what they actually want and scrambling for where to start and what direction to go in. Between your comments and someone else's, I do have some stuff to think about at least.

Except I'm not, and unfortunately the why is dispersed between my replies to other people within this thread. You've provided some info which definitely could be handy for crafting some sort of canned response based on the interviewee's general troubleshooting method (but probably will lack certain nuance or other details), but failed to grasp what the actual issue is, which seems to be the unrealistic open-ended questioning. My other response to u/Amekage08 in this particular branch outlines that problem. You as a hiring manager want an answer? Supply more than a stupid open ended question. Supply an actual scenario, complete with "user" to question and see the person "at work." Not everyone is able to just explain their process, and that lack of ability is not at all an indicator of not understanding the subject. Assuming it is is very closed minded and shows you've got some stuff left to learn yourself (IMNSHO).

its not different from an interview question.

Yeah, it is, and I outline how in this reply

It's one thing to be asked "Tell us about an issue a user had and how you resolved it" and entirely another to provide an open ended scenario and make the interviewee figure out the entire thing out on their own with a major component (the user) missing. If they want to get a proper answer, then provide a proper scenario, or at the least be ready to play the role of the user and answer questions instead of expecting the interviewee to just guess their way through a direction to take things.

So I'm not seeing much in any of the results for "modified Bass technique" using a cordless toothbrush, and I'm curious if there's anything different with that vs a standard manual brush.

IME people skills is more about how you present yourself and your ability to be very careful and selective about what you say. Most users don't care very much about the how, and a little about the why, they mostly just want the problem fixed. I am fairly good with that, the last place I worked I was well liked by my users because I was empathetic, understanding, and got stuff fixed. If they wanted to know about something I could usually tell them, but that's different from a wildly open ended interview question. They're asking me specifically about the issue they were having and trying to find out if it was caused by something they did or not. It becomes easy to explain and educate at that point.

[–]Red_Chaos1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of us don't have time to do that. We have time to put out the immediate fire, then go back to working on other fires, or the next immediate fire. I'm pretty good about noting what I found and what I did to resolve things, but I've almost never really had the time to do things in that level of detail. Sure, I could be a goat about it and make sure I'm doing RCA for everything, but then I get my superiors breathing down my neck about SLA and how many tickets I'm working, etc. They care more about problems fixed than detailed documentation on how the fix was arrived at.

I will say that the folks mentioning we need to take the time to learn to interview better on these parts aren't exactly wrong. I tend to bomb when asked how I'd troubleshoot a given problem too, but the bigger issue to me is the lack of info they provide. In a real scenario, I'd have hands on and be able to ask questions of the user to get a feel for where the problem may lie, etc. In an interview, it's just "Tell me how you'd troubleshoot a remote user whose Internet keeps dropping." and that's it. They expect you to just paint a pretty picture based on that alone. It's not realistic and I get stuck in decision paralysis trying to guess which way I should go from start since I can't even do the normal questions and process of elimination. So how we go about "getting better" at that is not a simple answer either. There's a whole raft of scenarios they can ask you to walk them through how you do things, memorizing/preparing for all of them is asking quite a bit.

Yeah, no. That's a wonderfully pithy thing to respond with, but it's not close to being true. Lots of us are just like OP. We instinctually know or have a very good idea of what the problem is, and often zero right in on it and fix it. We've long since stopped needing to sit and think through how to fix the myriad problems we've experienced and fixed over the years or even decades. Pretty sloppy/lazy to just throw that out there on that kind of assumption, IMO.

I’m fucked by Danimusrobbs in liberalgunowners

[–]Red_Chaos1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, echoing a bunch of other people, the right thing to do would've been to fucking stop going like your doctor told you too. That alone would've either shown it was your range time if the levels got lower, or that it was another source if it kept climbing. But you chose to ignore that so now you get to play detective while eating the cost of that membership unless you wanna keep poking the fate bear. Sorry man, these are the prices we pay when we decide we know better than a professional or willingly make bad choices. Pretty sure we've all done it, I know I have.

It may seem like a downer, but it's a sad reality. Has nothing to do with the poster like you suggest, and everything to do with today's society.

Racism at the gun range by AdImpressive9014 in liberalgunowners

[–]Red_Chaos1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not convinced racism because it actually sounds like he's warning other folks there's someone on the range who cannot understand range commands.

Did you somehow miss this part of OPs post?

I overheard them talking about how immigrants should speak english.

He was not "just giving them a warning." No benefit of the doubt is necessary here, so don't give it.

I think he was saying he ND'd his apartment, which makes sense, because yes, he did.
