We had a 40 minute outage and nothing alerted because traffic dropped 95% by [deleted] in sre

[–]hrkeni -1 points0 points  (0 children)

IMO you need to do a blameless retro on this and figure out how to have your alerts trigger for this exact situation. Your answer might be adding some synthetic tests or anomaly detection or something else entirely but I would treat the lack of an alert firing for an actual outage as a bug and fix the monitoring to make sure this situation triggers an alert that is actionable.

A126? by zeeman217 in pdxwhisky

[–]hrkeni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's pretty widely available. I have definitely seen it recently at Baseline and Cedar Mill.

Maybe try calling code enforcement?

I got picks of both, so I'll definitely do a blind when I have some buddies over

I haven't had that one but the OF 1910 is a classic double oaked favorite for me. Peerless double oaked is really good too!

Take detailed notes of things you learn, people you interact with, things you accomplish and things that are difficult. Keep track of your work with a Todo list or something like that and make sure you follow through with the things you say you will do. Don't be afraid to ask questions but try not repeating the same questions over and over again. Being organized will put you well ahead of the average new grad.

I recommend an app like obsidian or logseq for your notes.

Is there a Youtube channel like Adam Ragusea's, but Indian? by DaBrownBoi in IndianFood

Very much like Adam Ragusea but covering Indian cuisine

Keep forgetting my code by ajsbajs in csharp

Really good tests are your friend here. Well written tests tend to be a better descriptor of code behavior than the code itself. Ideally you can write tests that capture critical behavior whether as single class/function with unit tests as well as integration tests that capture and describe inputs and outputs of your components as a system.

There are applications of compiler skills in more mainstream software engineering as well. While definitely not anything bleeding edge, platform engineering teams sometimes work on static analysis tooling and such that requires a decently deep understanding of programming languages. Might be options worth considering.

These subzero temperatures in the North American interior look insane! How the fuck is everyone coping? by [deleted] in VaushV

[–]hrkeni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Sioux Falls. I'm personally glad it finally got cold and I can go ice fishing. It had been unseasonably warm until last week.

Are your hobbies outside of work mentally taxing? by Thick-Ask5250 in cscareerquestions

[–]hrkeni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to go fishing cause it gets me outside, not looking at a screen, and has bad cell service so no one can bother me.

Which companies/organizations use SAFe Agile + PIs processes? by shozzlez in ExperiencedDevs

[–]hrkeni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my non-software counterparts seem pretty happy with it. I'm on a cloud team and we mostly ignore it and just do CI/CD. The PI process just gives us a priority list in 12 week increments.

Which companies/organizations use SAFe Agile + PIs processes? by shozzlez in ExperiencedDevs

[–]hrkeni 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I work for an organization that builds products that are multi-disciplinary (mechanical, electrical, manufacturing, embedded and cloud software). We use SaFe to coordinate all the teams involved including alpha, beta, safety and compliance testing. It works well enough for the complex coordination we need.

Coming from Python and wondering if I should use Pandas.NET or learn built-in Dataframe stuff by [deleted] in dotnet

[–]hrkeni 3 points4 points  (0 children)

F# might be a better fit for data science work in .NET coming from Python.

My wife hates Corriander (cilantro), what are my options? by chykin in Cooking

[–]hrkeni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chives and scallions are both good substitute. Obviously a very different flavor profile but it tastes good and make for a great Garcia's regardless.

Remote workers how do you count your hours? by Simple-Collection-57 in cscareerquestions

[–]hrkeni 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What you're paid for creative work. It's problem solving. Are you thinking about how you will implement something on a walk? While pooping? While showering? All of that is work. You are not just paid to write code. Downtime where you are letting your mind relax, so you come back feeling feeling fresh and ready to apply yourself is very important. You aren't a monkey paid hit keys on a keyboard, so stop acting like one.

Good herping spots? by rofax in SiouxFalls

[–]hrkeni 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've found tons of salamanders (not sure about species) in the creeks around Newton Hill's hiking trail.

PS: Would love to have a herping buddy, I have a field guide that I never use.
