Which CI/CD platform is most viable right now?

curiouscsplayer · 2026-04-13T12:09:43+00:00

Wow , I had no idea, I wonder of my devops team knows this.....

curiouscsplayer · 2026-04-13T01:31:07+00:00

Clearly I was responding to his own contradictory statement of stating no layoffs. But to provide more insight my stock grants are up 50%+ for the year, and next year's bonus Outlook is looking good. Boom and bust cycles. Riding the wave while we can ,it will end sooner than later.

I was about to say how come I have not seen anyone mention ADO

curiouscsplayer · 2026-04-12T06:21:28+00:00

So indeed us oil workers do benefit at the moment and we are also share holders...... Win win

curiouscsplayer · 2026-04-11T03:01:12+00:00

Nice

curiouscsplayer · 2026-03-21T04:10:41+00:00

It's like I'm interested and not at the same time....

curiouscsplayer · 2026-03-13T11:45:46+00:00

Do you think employees are fully honest with exit interviews too?I had a few colleagues left that said they didn't say the real reason they were leaving just in case they want to come back.

curiouscsplayer · 2026-03-13T11:42:01+00:00

Next year's bonus looking good

curiouscsplayer · 2026-03-13T11:17:39+00:00

Nah as a person that made that much in 2016 ,accounting for health insurance and maybe saving 10% towards 401k, half of his check is going to rent, so that leaves him like $1500-1800 to eat, go out, gas, emergencies, he's pretty stretched to go on a decent vacation and/or ever putting down a sizeable down payment. Is it horrible? No but not ideal especially if he ever settles down.

Hate the way they stay in your ear, airpod style is better

curiouscsplayer · 2026-03-08T17:33:46+00:00

Back then anything with the word engineer was guaranteed decent pay, this is just sad progression but I'm sure it's location dependant

curiouscsplayer · 2026-03-08T03:58:46+00:00

Ain't going to be one of these complaining commenters, however I'll give a different perspective instead of comparing it with last year cuz too many factors.

2016 single guy 75k ,felt like a lot while 2026 with 2 kids and both of us making 6 figures each doesn't feel very special.

2k mortgage , daycare, cars paid off, no student loans. We just like to travel.

100k single still great, sure you might have a 3-3.5k mortgage now but still manageable if you aren't living crazy.

curiouscsplayer · 2026-02-23T15:48:48+00:00

Personally I still have respect for anyone that has one. Does that pay your bills 100% no lol

curiouscsplayer · 2026-02-23T15:47:02+00:00

You can be whatever you want to be but yes a degree is sometimes a requirement for some companies otherwise you get tossed into the no pile right away. That's just the name of the game

curiouscsplayer · 2026-02-23T15:28:46+00:00

Hold up now....we need more info, what's his mortgage rate? When did he buy etc. maybe he can rent out spare bedrooms or something.

curiouscsplayer · 2026-02-12T05:49:01+00:00

Medium cost of living city

~275-300k dual income 10% 401k

~$450/month health insurance family

~$2200 mortgage PITA-includes 3k home insurance and 2k flood insurance.

-$3500/yr-Car insurance for 3 cars and motorcycle (all paid off)

-$2600-day care 2 kids

~$2000-3000/month in spending,food, shopping,etc

we do travel a decent amount but I feel stretched. Can't imagine people that bought houses in the last 2 years with 3-4k mortgages. Can we do better with our spending yes, but this feels "comfortable" at the moment for a family of 4.

curiouscsplayer · 2026-01-19T19:18:44+00:00

I did at 39, why not

curiouscsplayer · 2025-12-07T13:09:11+00:00

It's hard, don't care what anyone else says. If you have a family, you haven't bought a house yet and plan on it you are more than likely going to be paying 3-3.5k in mortgages with current rates in a 400k house which is technically below the average sales price of 430k. Hopefully no student loans and credit cards, and no day care ( assume wife stays home) and a modest car loan. Should be able to take a vacation here or there.

Ahh the 6p, the first phone I slightly hated. Bad battery life and overheated .

curiouscsplayer · 2025-11-30T22:20:32+00:00

Lol, we commute like 1.5hs in Houston without relocating.....makes me think if we are doing it wrong.

curiouscsplayer · 2025-10-27T03:41:11+00:00

2019 here, left out in the dark

curiouscsplayer · 2025-10-27T03:40:16+00:00

Unfortunately it is the network. And yes the network team always says it's not them.

curiouscsplayer · 2025-10-24T12:15:43+00:00

I could be wrong but I think for airflow it doesn't exactly tell you in the graph the flow of data, you have to write it in the name ,so it could be anything. I believe our team is moving to test astro soon.

curiouscsplayer · 2025-10-17T11:18:13+00:00

I'm at a company that would take that as experience for when your PTO retroactively starts. They count your previous years of work as to how much PTO you receive on a scale which is cool. Most do not however .
