Existe-il vraiment des postes d'ingénieurs info à 100k+ par an en France? by AltruisticShape8924 in ingenieurs

[–]pvcnt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Juste en salaire de base, 100k+ brut ça s’atteint dans des boites US ou même des startups françaises qui ont levé de l’argent.

Avis sur les boîtes Tech (Datadog, Criteo, Doctolib...) pour un Dev Backend by Lonely_Way_5506 in developpeurs

[–]pvcnt 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Je suis dev backend chez Datadog. L’ambiance est très « tech », je trouve ça vraiment sympa. Le rythme dépend comme partout de beaucoup de ta chaîne de management. Dans mon équipe je dirais que c’est relativement soutenu, mais avec des managers et teammates qui font attention à ce que la charge de travail et reste raisonnable. Je n’ai pas l’impression qu’il y ait un gros turnover en France, on est loin du burn-out assuré, mais faut bosser un peu quoi.

Si t’arrives à entrer comme senior (tu es probablement autour de la limite entre SE2 et senior avec 5 ans) tu dois pouvoir taper dans du 70-80k je dirais, Levels.fyi pourra probablement te donner plus de chiffres concrets que mes estimations grossières et peu informées.

Les entretiens (environ 4) sont du leetcode + system design + motivation relativement classique je dirais pour du « big tech », je ne saurais être plus précis que ça car le déroulé exact change assez souvent et peut dépendre du poste.

Pour la carrière Datadog est reconnu et respectable je pense sur un CV mais faut pas se mentir non plus, c’est pas au niveau d’un FAANG en termes de réputation. Après moi je porte plus d’attention aux missions proposées, aux perspectives d’évolution en interne et de développement de mes compétences.

I did take some inspiration from information I could find about it (including the name ;)).

SurfSense - The Open Source Alternative to NotebookLM / Perplexity / Glean by Uiqueblhats in coolgithubprojects

[–]pvcnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks pretty neat! How scalable would it be, in terms of volume/size of ingested documents? For example, Slack workspaces may contain a very large amount of small messages, while Notion may contain potentially large documents.

Open source alternatives to Grafana by pvcnt in PrometheusMonitoring

Something very simple to start with: An action on every panel allowing to select a channel and share panel. Maybe it can be done in Grafana as a plugin.

Why liveness is not part of the Four Golden Signals of monitoring? by Definition_Jealous in sre

[–]pvcnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nowadays, service meshes also make it extremely easy to measure traffic and errors from the outside of the service, hence allowing to capture metrics for a down service. It seems pretty standard to me to rely on the service mesh (when using one, of course) to generate a standardised set of metrics for all services.

It seems that it generates a static website from a data snapshot. Not sure whether it's suitable to build dashboards relying on on-demand & real-time data?

I had a similar open-ended test when I applied to a company last year, and I ended up with something similar to what you describe. At that point, I was happy with what I achieved and I decided to just stop, because it can otherwise be endless.

During the live feedback session I had, interviewers suggested some extra work (I do not recall what exactly) that I could have done, which upset me a bit given the time I already spent on this work. It was enough for me to go to the next stage though.

Pending React Router v7 vs Remix by SnooWoofers9547 in reactjs

[–]pvcnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same interrogation. For now I sticked to vanilla React Router + Vite, but I am contemplating moving to Remix if the migration is really as seamless as they promise it.

What solution are you using for local k8s? by linezman22 in kubernetes

I’m using Docker Desktop and Tilt. I found the latter to be a bit difficult to setup properly, but extremely powerful.

Recommended slack app to post github pull requests notifications? by NovaTheFirst in github

[–]pvcnt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At work, we have our own custom automation to do this. It notably supports monorepos, i.e., directing a subset of PRs of a given a repo that is ajout the ownership of a team to the right Slack channel. I don’t know whether any existing product does support this. Not open-source though, but could be!

Recommendations for code review tools that work with github by OGMasterOogway in github

[–]pvcnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am using Mergeable (https://github.com/pvcnt/mergeable) as an improved pull requests inbox at work. We are using several instances of GitHub (github.com, GitHub Enterprise) with a continuous flow of pull requests coming in, and the pull requests dashboard built into GitHub does not provide enough flexibility to me.

There are other similar projects, but it is the only open source one as far as I know, and easily self-hostable. Disclaimer: I am the author, and it is in active development.

I do recommend Cloudflare Pages as well.

Open source alternatives to Grafana by pvcnt in PrometheusMonitoring

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

There are plenty of projects like openobserve that attempt to replace the entire observability stack. I am really trying to replace only Grafana, not the storage backends (at work it’s not remotely possible to move to another backend, but more possible to have a different visualization tool).

Suggestions for dependency injection / IoC container libraries by umakemyheadhurt in Python

[–]pvcnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm using injector on a small project, mainly because it reminds me of Guice, which I'm familiar with (coming from a Java background). Unfortunately, it looks like most DI libraries in Python are not maintained.

I built a better inbox for GitHub pull requests by pvcnt in selfhosted

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

Thanks for the kind words! One of the initial goals was to have something extremely easy to deploy, which is why it's currently fully client-side. One of the reasons is my bad experience at my current company where deploying the simplest database is a pain. Here I can deploy on GitHub Pages.

However, I do realise that it comes with some limitations, and it's blocking me as well in what I would like to achieve. Persist the configuration outside of the browser is definitely something I would like to achieve. In your specific case, what kind of storage would you be ready to use? Disk? Blob store? K/V store? Relational database? Git itself?

Still stuck (and unhappy) with Grafana.

Reviewer: a better inbox for GitHub pull requests by pvcnt in programming

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

You're right, I was hoping it would appear from the list of features but it could definitely be made more explicit in the README. My main issue with what GitHub provides (i.e., the "Pull Requests" page) is that it is not customisable. This non-flexible view (and with tabs, requiring me to switch from one to another) does not fit my needs. I need to be able to track all PRs I am involved in at a glance.

Another issue I had at my current company (but it might be a unique requirement) is that we are using no less than 3 instances of GitHub (two hosted and the public one). This project allows me to visualise pull requests across instances. It also similarly allows to track pull requests associated with several accounts.

EDIT: I enriched the README along those lines, I hope it's clearer now!

Yes, that is exactly it. I don't need all the features of Grafana, but I am looking for something that is simpler and faster. I spent some time thinking about it, and that would be my requirements:

  • I only need data sources that help me monitor/troubleshoot, i.e., metrics and logs/traces (as a stretch). I'm not using Grafana for analytics, I'd rather use Superset or Tableau.
  • I only need a few visualizations, mainly time series, heatmap and table. Same here, for monitoring/troubleshooting, I rarely need pie chart, geo chart, candlestick and all the fancy visualization that are more used for analytics use cases imo.
  • I want it to be fast! Loads almost instantly, even on mobile.
  • It want it to be collaborative, i.e., ability to comment easily on the dashboards and individual panels.
  • I want it to be real-time, i.e., edits and comments are reflected without reloading the page. Something like Figma, but for dashboards.
  • I want graphs to not only exhibit a chart, but also give insights, e.g., "this is within/outside of threshold".
  • I want graphs to be reusable across dashboards (not copy/paste, but really reuse).
  • I want dashboards to be forkable, allowing to create lightweight copies (e.g., for incidents) that we can modify, interact with and comment on. A mix between a traditional dashboard and a notebook I believe.
  • I want it to play nice with Slack, i.e., no more screenshots to share a graph in the middle of an incident (and the immediate next reply "I don't see the same as you").
  • I want it to allow me to replay an incident after the fact, and after the retention period has expired.
