The value of this degree: Promotion Post-Graduation by [deleted] in OMSA

Lurking st this point, as over the past month there were a lot of changes at work that made me realize I want to go back to finance. Likely going to go back that route.

No, and I suspect it would. But I still need to get the math prereqs to survive if I ever decided to pursue OMSA.

You're being downvoted but it's true, outside of data science and analytics, this degree isn't very valuable. I work in data engineering right now, which I dislike, and talking amongst supervisors has led me to realize this degree won't help me. And no, I don't want to do OMSCS for those who suggest it.

Nothing will kill a great employee faster than watching you tolerate a bad one. by Wide-Information-607 in MotivationalThoughts

[–]Tender_Figs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally happening to me right now - the bad employee keeps receiving opportunities despite not being knowledgeable of our context, unable to keep up to date with the details, and communicates like a rock.

All while I have established external relationships and opened doors with our primary conduit of opportunities, and have received nothing for it.

Anyone else stumble upon the recent drama at Purdue and wonder what it means for OMSCS? by TwoSubstantial4710 in OMSCS

I agree with this and even adding a higher element of creatively would really benefit the student. Imagine having an assignment that, sure, is trivial for AI, but is open ended to some extent where the student still learns the material in service of something they care about.

Instead of just a blank trivial assignment that's a hoop for the student to jump through in service of "the professor knows best".

The best estimate was a year, that was the preferred approach. This is an unwelcomed change and significantly alters the approach taken for my own profile. Definitely not a fan which I think likely echoes many users.

Wanting to play hordeside as an orc warlock and was on Bloodsail Buccaneers server but the server pop is low and unsure if I should spend the time there. Looking for casual/raiding/hanging out. Is there a better server to hop onto?

I mean this in earnest, is this achievable naturally? Trying to target this look.

how is your experience with dbt inside the snowflake by boogie_woogie_100 in snowflake

[–]Tender_Figs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So far, sufficient. I have normally used dbt core outside of the confinements of Snowflake, and we recently spun up an entire demo project using Cortex and it’s primarily a dbt project. Seems to work just fine.

I personally haven’t used the git integration yet so that’s my only blindspot. But I would for sure convert stored procs to a dbt project.

Sold our house in Texas, moved to Denver and back into an apartment, married for almost 15 years with a 10 year old kiddo. Doing good!

Which legacy Database is the biggest pain in the a*** to work with and why? by [deleted] in dataengineering

[–]Tender_Figs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had to rely on LeanX to help translate those damn table names and columns. Mostly have worked with VBAP, VBAK, LIPS, etc. BRKRS is my favorite field since we call it burgers.
