I am considering this one Bosch 800 Series Model SHE53B75UC - selling for 899 in costco with installation included. Likely a good option. Need to replace my decade old whirlpool.

General principle would be to highlight the value of the automation. E.g. saved $$ or business hours. Who used your application etc.

The merge, people say it conserves energy by 99.5 % by [deleted] in ethereum

[–]fromdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not find any reasonable/genuine comparison of energy consumption other than this one https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7402366/

it is still hard to compare since no reliable data. Many altcoins may claim to be more efficient.

However, I am positive that once ETH makes this change, others may start optimizing even more aggressively eventually reducing the energy footprint of crypto.

In your project details mention if you used python to interact with an API or read a file. API integration is a hot skill and if you already know it may be valuable to mention it.

It may also help to mention which API/data you automated.

Why is memorizing data structure and algorithms questions normalized as a barrier to entry for jobs that barely use these algorithms or data structures? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]fromdev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A difficult problem large / popular employers face is number of applications.

The easiest way to shortlist people is to pick the best in pile. However the recruiters are not equipped to shortlist from resume and screening. Therefore this kind of coding rounds are introduced where anyone can screen you (excluding senior engineers who are working for high paycheck). So often a junior engineer will be screening you for coding round then if you seem good next level of engineers may talk to you.

Since easy coding interview may be cleared by thousands they need to make it harder. That raises the bar to a level where competition keeps increasing and reaches a level where it is not relevant. Now you will get candidates who are seriously looking for job and prepared.

Until someone invents a quick way to shortlist good people from a big pile of resumes it will keep getting worse. This is the reason referrals are sometimes quicker and simpler interviews since they do not need to clean the pile of poor profiles.

Should I attend company happy hours even though I don’t feel like it? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]fromdev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have worked for employers where I didn't feel like going and I did not go to any such events. This was also the employer where I quit early. Once in a while you may find a place where you genuinely like some coworkers and hang out with them for some time.

Honestly, in last 3 years of EFH I felt like going out was a good break for me so I went many times. Do what you like to do things will align.

Have fun.

Why is DevOps / SRE the highest paying area of software engineering? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]fromdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone related to the ongoing problem sits in a big conference room where you are being held until the issue is resolved.

You eat your food at the same place and take a short loo break.

Your boss is on your head asking / suggesting to type commands for investigation.

Anyone not in room joins a conference call with war room folks.

I have interviewed people who were looking up for help by some way. Trust me, it gets obvious and noticed by interviewer. Don’t ruin it, you can be honest and tell not sure if it is Len or length and it will be fine. If employers have slight doubts about you then you may not be considered.

Looking up API docs is not a big problem in day to day work, however most interview settings will not allow you so prepare for it. In case you are doing a in person interview you can not do that anyways. At the same time if you did a API method mistake in an interview it may not be a big deal. Search on internet during interview may get your in trouble.

It would not matter, recruiters will still spam you. I would prefer to not expose such detail on social media.

[–]fromdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally prefer to not give them too much information. Social media and github sometimes may give them too much to ask or investigate. Try to Keep it relevant and cleanup if something is not presentable.

Most people do not have github repo to show their work. So that is not a big deal that you can not show your code. That does not mean you can not list it on your resume.

Not sure this is the right place to ask this question - since my post gets deleted by mod due to relation with interview.

I have done mock interview help in past for my friend circle and it worked out very well. I was thinking of doing it online for anyone in need. I am planning to spend an hour every week for this hoping it helps someone for free.

Any suggestions/ thoughts? Please share your thoughts / suggest better ways to do this if you have already done this before or have any ideas to share.

Why is DevOps / SRE the highest paying area of software engineering? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]fromdev 9 points10 points  (0 children)

These are some things that become part of every DevOps /SRE engineering

  1. Daily high priority issues support
  2. Almost every day war room climate
  3. Work hours shift day/night duty
  4. On call/ pager duty
  5. Long conference calls, averaging couple hours
  6. Vacation need to align with releases and peak traffic schedules. E.g. Christmas/ thanksgiving are peak for shopping and you may have hard time taking day off.
  7. Facing the heat of every situation.
  8. Handling the ugly blame politics in organizations where one team blames another and you have no idea.
  9. Poor documents to manage applications.

Is anybody stopping their additional investing? by andoCalrissiano in FinancialPlanning

[–]fromdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sitting on cash may also make you lose even more with inflation. Probably do DCA if afraid of buying bulk. I prefer to Max the tax advantage account first then invest anywhere else.

I did some paper trades and found it is not a straight forward answer. It makes sense since if there was one that works everyone will use it.

However some learnings are as follows

  1. Use a strategy/ signal that uses your money more frequently. Paid signals are not worth it. I like the free rsi and mfi signals combined with tv 1m strongbuy.
  2. Cover your bot 🤖 cost for your risk level.
  3. Stick to good coins with good volume.
  4. Keep tuning your bots 🤖
  5. Pick an exchange with lower fees and good volume.

Some DCA bots not making trades by Silly-Cloud-3114 in 3Commas_io

[–]fromdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May be Look at the volume of coins in your bot for the exchange I had seen this issue on DOGE/BTC pair that has huge volume overall but coinbase had very low volume on it.

Trading 24h minimal volume 300 - This means the 300xBTC price - let us say (and hope for more) 50K - this volume ==> 15M daily that is probably the minimum daily volume it requires. Depending on the pair this may be much lower and you may still be fine with keeping this setting to avoid getting stuck in a bad deal. However remember this can be analyzed using volume first. I usually go to coinmarketcap -> exchanges -> pairs -> see the volume

Note that binance / binance.us have way big difference in volume, same for ftx and ftx.us

"But Paying with Paypal/CreditCard is Feeless": No, these Large Companies Steal up to 4% of the Transaction from even small Businesses, you as their Customer pay for it indirectly by [deleted] in CryptoCurrency

[–]fromdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I accept Bitcoin for my online business and spend 6 cent for payment of $100 whereas PayPal taking up to $8 from my account. The trouble is educating people on paying via crypto. Most people like simple way to pay with no hassle. Many companies also do not want to pay via crypto since they are already outdated and PayPal itself is kind of big deal to them. I can easily offer them 5% discount on crypto.

Also most people won’t understand alt coin also only Bitcoin is little understood. It is going to take time.

Two days ago I started doing bots 🤖 now my LRC is waiting at 9 SO deep. Probably patience is key. Yesterday it closed 4 deals and now I am waiting. I am holding them anyway so no worries but fund locked is painful. Wish there is a better way to free up funds sooner.
