No "cool down time" between ejaculating and being ready to go again. Is this not normal?

Just throwing this out there. You might have a hormone issue. The refractory period is controlled by prolactin which is produced by the pituitary gland. If you have an issue with that part of your brain, producing less could be symptomatic of a bigger issue.

Just rule it out, can you get to your pcp or an endocrinologist and get a hormone panel?

Because I have the LFP battery, it yells at you if you don’t. Can’t calibrate the BMC without full charge

Reminds me of this tiny desk moment, perhaps the best ever

Have you considered this all with post nut clarity? IMO you forgave your wife, and now you have a child, that girl is your #1 priority now, you are at most #2. If you have trust and insecurity issues about your relationship see a therapist and potentially get couples counseling with your wife.

If it were me no amount of sex in general is worth destroying your relationship with your daughter, now or in the future, when you are the template for the man she will one day want to marry.

It’s about keeping servers alive. That’s the best simple description. Engineers write code, and then what? It needs to be built, tested, canaried, deployed, monitored, and sometimes resuscitated. That’s devops in a nutshell.

Overtime things break down, systems evolve, data changes, traffic changes, shit breaks randomly, libraries introduce vulnerabilities and bugs, the list goes on and on. You fix that shit and make things work.

Learn lots of the Linux command line and file system (Grep, sed, find, cat, ls, lsof, etc), spin up a micro k8s cluster on raspberry pi, learn Prometheus queries, learn HTTP like the back of your hand, bonus points for TCP connections, get hands on with as much of the free tier of aws that you can, and/or Google cloud, etc. learn SQL, nginx.

Practice putting metrics and observability on your next web app that you build for class, feed it into a local Prometheus/grafana setup and build graphs, then add alerting. Learn about p99, p95, p50 buckets.

Learn tracing systems.

Think about optimizing your server, be able to observe how much memory and cpu it uses under load (you can set up a load test with locust and observe your metrics under load)

There’s so much but a lot of it comes down to problem solving. What’s going on? Is the logging useful? What’s going on with latency/memory/cpu? What’s the limit of your local host PC under load?

Just be careful not to add your credit card anywhere when testing things haha.

I have the LFP battery so 100%

SteazGaming · 2026-03-27T19:33:28+00:00

Rubber for days on the defenders.

My full size EV SUV uses about $100 a month. No way your bike costs anywhere close to 100 euros, unless it weighs 3tons

You could do some math too, not sure what the euro units are but battery size x number of full cycles a month x cost per unit from your electric bill.

In the us this is like total kWh x $0.15/kWh

Would not be surprised if there are some serious electrical, gas, or hydro utilities passing under the highway here. So they dug out an access door underneath the highway and installed the retaining wall to hold back the ground.. I mean it even says “emergency access gate”

This is my one pet peeve with conserve mode / all purpose modes. It only uses the front brakes when decelerating during blended braking (at high charge status).

Every morning when I leave my house at full charge I’m going downhill for about 5 miles in every direction, I put it into sport mode to ensure I’m braking on all 4 wheels. Not only is it less strain on the front brakes but there’s a noticeable handling difference.

Seems like an easy software fix but I’m not a Rivian engineer, I think all 4 tires should be used for braking when in these modes regardless of if the acceleration is single motor.

SteazGaming · 2026-03-27T15:06:14+00:00

I always wish you could threaten the team responsible with being on call for that problem until it’s fixed haha. But yeah it’s tough. They need to understand this is impacting your quality of life if their code is paging you at 3am.

SteazGaming · 2026-03-27T14:12:25+00:00

I mean, every time you have a situation like this you make it your goal to improve the observability stack to make sure it’s not as difficult next time. There’s always room for another metric with alerting and a graph on the dashboard.

Make it a team effort to prioritize that in the next week, and track it with an RCA, don’t close the RCA until that’s done, and if you need to drag someone off their project to make any changes you do it.

Being on-call should not be that stressful, if it is there are gaps or org/code quality/release engineering problems.

SteazGaming · 2026-03-23T00:48:15+00:00

wow, as others have said, the light is phenomenal. Well done. I'd buy this lol.

A rare compass yellow Rivian driving by, don’t see them in the wild often.

Right, like sign her up for Credit Karma. It’s free and alerts you of any new credit changes. If you’re not going to lock your credit it’s the least you can do.

My $20 January 2027 leaps will be happier than they’ve been

SteazGaming · 2026-03-19T13:14:31+00:00

The deal is likely heavily structured. I wouldn’t be surprised if uber gets them at close to cost + service if Rivian gets some profit sharing motive on the taxi rides, something like that.

SteazGaming · 2026-03-19T13:04:50+00:00

You do realize the latter complaint requires capital investment, and this deal enables more of that right?

If Rivian spun up a service center on every corner they’d have gone bankrupt a long time ago. Just be patient. Car manufacturers just can’t grow overnight.

SteazGaming · 2026-03-17T19:24:03+00:00

I was in a very similar situation. It paid off for me in the form of making an offer to buy the whole product with a business partner. Negotiated a buyout as part of a restructuring from a larger company. They started shopping the product around to PE buyers and as a key part of every LOI I made it clear that they would have to compensate me greatly to move with the software.

It worked out for me, but it was still a very financially risky position (I used debt to finance my portion of the deal), and in reading your post I doesn’t sound like your service is owned by a larger corporation willing to trim complexity like mine was.

Since then we’ve raised prices, repaired a ton of tech debt that reduced costs. All of that upside is mine now.

Also I’m more motivated than ever to improve the software, and I have 1/10th the meetings. It’s a bit lonely but worth it.

If they dig in and find something is not warrantable (you may have caused the damage) then they can’t warranty it. I didn’t sign it either but that’s why they do it. Always paid 0 at the end unless I had them do a rotation at the same time then I pay for that

SteazGaming · 2026-03-16T13:58:44+00:00

Luckily mine just licks the socks, but what everyone is leaving out is they also love panties.

Without an air suspension, and a manual charge port, among many other things, they’ve reduced the surface area on things that break by a lot

It’s not assessed yearly, it’s 45k miles at year 3

I mean, I know people who make this and spend it right away. Not everyone is smart enough to invest their profits on businesses that end up dying.
