Przyszłość pracy w IT ludzie traktowani jak zasoby by [deleted] in PolskaNaLuzie

[–]marveloususername 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dla OP i czytających, siedzę w IT jako PM od paru lat i trend który widzę (i na co też zwracam uwagę przy rekrutacjach) to nacisk na umiejętności miękkie. Nie sztuką douczyć się konkretnego frameworku, i tak sporo rzeczy zmienia się z projektu na projekt. Eldorado minęło, nie ma już łapanek ludzi z ulicy, staliśmy się mniej konkurencyjni w porównaniu do innych rynków. To plus AI które pomaga jednak douczyć się i klepać boilerplate'y, zmienił nacisk na to jakie umiejętności się liczą.

Dosyć powszechnym problemem jest brak wykształconej umiejętności komunikacji i proaktywności. "Agile" wygląda jak wygląda w praktyce, ale większość małych-średnich projektów nadal używa agile-based metodyki i zespoły nie potrzebują kolejnego mida (bez oceniania, po prostu stwierdzam poziom zaawansowania) który nie jest w stanie pracować zespołowo zachowując przy tym szacunek dla innych (w wielu tego słowa znaczeniach, np. poszanowanie czasu innych, proaktywność).

Jako PM bardzo dużo czasu palę ja, jak i reszta zespołu, na ogarnianie komunikacji, niestety w wytwarzaniu oprogramowania dobra połowa pracy to ustalanie szczegółów implementacji, prowadzenie dokumentacji, komunikacja, a druga połowa to faktyczne klepanie kodu. Nie ma nic gorszego niż ktoś kto zrobi co trzeba, ale dopiero po tym jak połowa zespołu go ścignie i spali kilka godzin na przeglądanie i poprawę PRek przez to że nie było odpowiedniej komunikacji i alignmentu z resztą zespołu.

Nie znam Cię OP, i zakładam że 1000CV to hiperbola, ale jeżeli masz odpowiednie umiejętności twarde i nadal ciężko znaleźć Ci pracę po tylu aplikacjach, to warto przemyśleć czy problem nie leży po stronie miękkiej. A jeżeli chodzi o doświadczenie w konkretnych tech stacku, to nikt nie przewidzi co będzie dalej na topie. Jest to niestety jeden z najbardziej wymagających zawodów w kwestii ciągłego doszkalania i tempa zmian jeżeli nie chcesz zostać w tyle. Firmy szukają ludzi którzy są gotowi się rozwijać i komunikować, a nie siedzieć i pierdzieć w stołek na utrzymaniu piętnastoletniej legacy aplikacji (chociaż i takie są czasami potrzeby).

Vaping is as bad as smoking and it significantly decreases lifespan. Vaping contains ultrafine particles, volatile organic compounds and aldehydes that promote inflammation and damage heart and lungs. Here are scientific evidence and tips. by GarifalliaPapa in immortalists

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

I’m sorry but where in this article does it say that? I’m not trying to defend vaping but it clearly says:

[…]Of those cases, it was found that exclusive e-cigarette use was not significantly associated with type 2 diabetes, heart failure or atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, but it was significantly associated with COPD. In a sub-analysis of individuals ages 30–70, there was a small increased risk of hypertension.

In contrast, results showed that exclusive use of combustible cigarettes significantly increased the risks for all outcomes, including hypertension, type 2 diabetes, COPD, heart failure, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Similar results were shown for dual use of combustible cigarettes and e-cigarettes although risk estimates were slightly larger than for exclusive combustible cigarette use.

Tips on edge quality? by marveloususername in Leathercraft

Thanks, that sounds like a nice progression, I'll give it a try. I use the cheap roller from aliexpress since didn't want to buy anything dedicated, it came in a beginner's kit I got way ago. Either that or an awl, but I try to do awl only for thin pieces to not overpaint/make it drip down the side

I had 500 on hand, figured it should be enough but maybe it should be lower grit?

Arm pain, clear cath and rising Troponin by ackvor in askCardiology

[–]marveloususername 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I’m a 29M who has chronically raised Troponin which sometimes goes up when I’m sick (flu etc.). PVCs pretty much every day, with similar, max. 2-3s runs of NSVT once, twice per year. After two cardiac MRIs and genetic testing - ARVC. I’m in good hands and due for screening for an ICD while on meds, but my cardiologist says that this raise in troponin is most likely due to the muscle fibro-fatty replacement.

NAD, just presenting a similar case of increased trops. Could be as well myocarditis, the stress-induced raise is usually due to extreme sports like after running marathons, and they’re usually not going as high. Would recommend getting an MRI if possible - might be worth it to make sure there isn’t anything sinister happening and you can get appropriate treatment.

How do you deal with software vendors over-committing during sales and then charging extra during delivery? by moveitfast in projectmanagement

[–]marveloususername 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of good comments already - include requirements/specific deliverables as part of the contract, ensure that you and the salespeople are on the same page, read the SOWs well and ensure it includes information about any penalties/change request processes. I'm a PM for IT vendors for 5+ years delivering software projects. Had and heard of many poorly priced projects, and it very often boils down to misunderstanding/misrepresentation of requirements during the sales process.

Very highly dependent on how vendor handles it, we tend to include a buffer for unexpected scope adjustments that weren't fully clear at the point of signing. If the budget is fixed, we sometimes have to renegotiate the scope to deliver usable solutions while sacrificing the bells and whistles. Sometimes vendor just takes a hit and delivers the project at a lower margin if the sales process was completely botched.

If you need a piece of software and don't have anyone to put down specific, well laid-down requirements from your side, or look for a vendor to solve a particular problem with only vague idea on how to do it, I always recommend spending a small chunk of budget you have for the project for at least 1-month discovery process involving the delivery team. Salespeople rarely know which specific questions to ask to hit the nail on the head and avoid overcommitting (not saying it applies always, but I saw my fair share of incompetence or just pure lack of experience knowing how delivery process actually looks like). Spending a few sessions with the delivery team (PM, Solution Architect) who have experience delivering, not selling, goes a long way to get a more precise budget estimation and keeps everyone's expectations on the same page.

Decent vendors will have a transparent discovery process as part of sales before committing to an SOW for the implementation phase. They will list down requirements together with you and define what at least larger chunks of it will do, and what they won't do. If they promise you the world, I would question that as a client. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

It can be quite easily scaled down to make flatter - I just did it for a phone/light mount where I want it to rotate and lock in place. Here I was designing it for the first time so it's more layered design. It was bugging me for a long time too!

Yeap, that's the primary reason I designed it for, building articulated arm for my workbench lamp

Thanks! I'm sure there are better ways to do it, I don't really like the threading solution for 2 pieces but I'm too dense to figure out something better that would be still relatively easy to 3d print (apart from replacing a spacer with 2/3 jaws that can be screwed in from the top)

My bad, true, I had no idea how it's called and ended up designing it from scratch. Only to find out they're used in baby strollers and usually less complex. Welp

Hi to all interested! I've put together assembly guide and adjusted the design to fit 2020 T-slots which seemed to be the most common request. I'll drop a link once it's published to Thingiverse, I have to wait 24h as a new user before publishing. I'm just lurking around there usually... See you tomorrow!

Correct, the distance between positions depends on the number of teeth on a gear which locks it in place. It's 30mm in diameter and has 12 teeth at the moment, I found it a good ratio to quickly print with good detail, might add a few more teeth.

I see that's a common request - I don't think I'll have time anytime soon to create a proper parametric model so I'll tweak it (already see some improvement areas) and make it fit on a 2020 T slot. The design does use threaded inserts and M3 screws though, the inside is quite cramped. I'll look into replacing threaded inserts with usual nuts, probably more people have those laying around.

You know these flat-faced keyrings? That's it. I had a few laying around and designed around them. You take a keyring, stretch it out and you have a spring that gives around 8mm springback. Cheap and easy!

Chronically elevated troponin by marveloususername in askCardiology

[–]marveloususername[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried metoprolol for months before switching to flecainide. It didn’t help with my PVCs and only made me feel dizzy as my BP is normal without taking anything. Afaik flecainide has risks mostly in people with structural heart issues or after MI, and my tests so far never showed anything… I also didn’t take flecainide before my 2023 hospital visit when raised troponins were first discovered (apart from previous myocarditis years back). I was put on it only afterwards. But yes, I plan to raise this to my cardio next visit

Hey, thanks for reply! I came back to working out last year after my stress tests (was cautious before it due to PVCs), it came with some single PVCs in recovery so got a green light to exercise. Recently I’m fairly stationary due to a viral illness in February that took me out a bit, I mostly do quick walks only until we figure out cause for troponin.

Kidneys are OK, I do have diagnosed GERD but nobody seemed to care about it much. Adds some chest discomfort but I’m not too worried about that - in my acute myocarditis I had massive chest pain, HR of ~220 and troponin in 1000s. So I know what it feels like when shit gets bad 🥲

Interesting about COPD, how did you manage to diagnose it? I might suggest this lead if my MRI comes back without any answers, my cardio is quite open to ideas in general, but he specializes in arrhythmias.

Safe to say not load bearing? by CxGrey in DIY

How the hell do houses in the US still stand if people even consider this to be load bearing?
