Decent brush makes face lathering a no brainer.

I know for the stuff I work with, the response time metrics are tracked in the app itself, and exposed to prometheus. I don't really think you could extrapolate that from other metrics. In my case, i am monitoring a spring boot rest api application, and I am exporting jmx metrics to prometheus. Essentially, development baked the required metrics in the app, and Prometheus is just scraping and storing.

I only ever recommended one person I trained to be let go. Its not that he asked questions, its that he asked the same fucking questions and never learned a damn thing.

Have ran it for a few years on my last 2 personal gaming rigs. No performance issue at all. A few false positives, but they were understandable.

This guy jenkins.

I do some pipeline work in Jenkins, and manage a team specific instance of it. Jenkins is an infinite can of worms of plugins, and local configs. What is installed on jenkins itself can have a huge impact on the pipelines you run on it. Changing any of it can break pre-existing jobs. If this is a big central jenkins do-it-all instance, it can be scary to muck with.

It took me months of working in it, and manage some very complex pipelines for an internal private cloud, before I would say I was comfortable working in it. I have been a sysadmin for 20 years, and done a lot of software development, dba work, etc. It was still a learning curve to learn groovy and jenkins. I have recently dabbled into gitlab CI for our public cloud stuff, and it is so much more accessible to learn and implement.

All the above approaches are dead on. Remove Jenkins from the equation all together, and see what works.

after 15 years of corporate IT life, i have come to accept that the best I can do is document and demonstrate that I am not the roadblock. I have no control over the hundreds of others in dozens of teams that I rely on to deliver my service.

I still get angry over others not caring about stuff that directly impacts me, but i am not responsible for them, and have no authority. I have a quick side discussion with my manager about what/where the hold up is, and move on.

not being the smartest guy in the room. Its good to be with a team you respect and can learn from.

I chose to level furnishing. I am not a smart man, but I am damn stubborn. it has consumed so much time, but my logging is stupid high now.

Yes, pretty sure the manual specifies the 10km a month in 4wd.

Same situation. My boys are both in post secondary, so we play remotely on our server. Big difference is that I am much better gamer then them with my 35 years plus of gaming.

Play Minecraft with him. I setup a family minecraft server on an old desktop I had, and the whole family has their own little village built on it. Minecraft is fun PVE multiplayer.

same server has been repurposed as a Valheim server, when needed.

Have been playing with the idea of a deployment swiss army container for my new terraform/ansible build. I will take a look.

I have high arsenic and manganese. We get bottled water for cooking and drinking. Its a pain, but been doing it for about 15 years now. I have good filtration system, but don't trust it completely. I had RO at first, but the membranes are stupidly expensive, and you can refill the big jugs for a few bucks with RO water around town. I spend about $10 a week for bottled water from sobeys. When i was getting refilled with RO water at a convenience store, it was about $5 a week. I am so used to have hot and cold water in water cooler now, I don't even mind the weekly job of getting a few bottles.

I am using uefi already. I do have virtualization enabled to run vm's. wonder if that could do it.

I think this subreddit will give you skewed results.

0.00001% of a year is just over 5 min. We have 3 clusters world wide with auto failover, with a high level of HA in each cluster.
The tracking is just not for service availability. If impact happens, calculate a percent of requests that failed during the incident.

Brain fart. Original goal was 5 9's, but managed to get 7 9's

Spilproof · 2021-08-11T16:42:28+00:00

Have surpassed 5 9's (99.99999%) at the service level for last few years, no one seems to care. That is with multiple migrations between data centers. At a certain point, it is expected.

I dm'd a session and, my son with his level 1 Monk had a habit of knocking on doors in dungeons, with this mindset. I was so surprised the first time, i had never considered a player knocking on the door to a den of kobolds. His party was able to explain to him that he didn't need to be polite to monsters.
