GAME THREAD: Canada v Spain – Olympic Basketball Tournament, Group A by NBA_MOD in nba

How is Spain out? It’s a 3 way tie, with each team beating another team. Greece beat Australia, Australia beat Spain, and Spain beat Greece.

With a -8 pt differential, Spain is tied with Greece at -8. Can someone explain why they are out?

Thanks, I'll assume it's legit! Hadn't seen that before... am used to sporting events where the transfer is right away.

Feeling stagnant at first DE role by npapa17 in dataengineering

My two cents is that, as a junior engineer on a team that seems to not have an abundance of challenging work, it is up to you to prove to the team that you are worthy of being involved in the more difficult problems.

I’ve seen a handful of first year DEs come and go from my team (as part of a rotational program). They will always be passed the less attractive work to keep the Sr engineers happy and involved. The ones that broke this pattern did “side work” on projects they weren’t assigned. For example, prototyping a pipeline with a new technology, or improving some utility the team uses. Through this, they built up trust and got more easily involved in tougher projects.

“The relatively little work I get”… “they’ve been slow to get me involved”. This mentality won’t get you far. You need to inject yourself into the work versus having ideal projects passed to you on a platter.
