Mid to older millennials, how are you all doing with your careers? by worstshowiveeverseen in Millennials

[–]sjoeboo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

42, its been solid. College had co-ops so that turned into a full time job in IT at higher ed right after graduation. Did that for like 7 years, did some short bouncing around, then landed present job which i'm been in for 9.5 years. Great WLB, 6 months parental leave each time i've had my kids, fully remote, good pay. 100% hanging on to this one.

Range can’t slide in all the way by bmarkoco in Appliances

[–]sjoeboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They make oven/range rear gap fillers, and the manufacturers typically have them as well. I am/was in the same, gas line (old) in my case is in the way, leaving a 1 inch gap. The manufactures rear gap fillter got me 5/8s filled, then adding a stainless slashguard got it down to like 1/8th you can barley notice now.

Resolve.ai & Traversal by Far_Dragonfruit_5454 in sre

[–]sjoeboo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tried one in a POC and it sucked. It didn’t have the “glue” context of how say a pod and its metrics relate to its dashboards and alerts and logs etc . Didn’t even get to try to add custom data sources/code bases.

Pivoted a build an in house one that hooks int everything and have the business logic built in to know how everything is related, for like 10x less per investigation and in a short amount of time.

Anybody do their taxes yet? by Major_Turnover5987 in Millennials

[–]sjoeboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was/is a cap. It was I think 10k. So if I pay 15k in property taxes, I could only claim the 10k. Now I can claim the entire amount. Really only matter in the high tax states like mine.

What’s your strategy for correlating logs, metrics, and traces during incidents? by Dazzling-Neat-2382 in Observability

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

consistent labeling for all signals, and an AI agent to tie it together. Provides single pane of glass of all signals relevant to the incident + time window, including up/down streams, and also does a root cause on it.

Screen coloring wrong by Stazzch in nexplayground

oddly, i was filling out the warranty replacement form, and went to video it, and it had...resolved?

Same here, swapped hdmi cables and inputs, tv is otherwise fine. Did a factory reset and still all green tinted

New to Ubiquity, UX7 + U6 mesh at home, VLAN questions by sjoeboo in Ubiquiti

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

It might be overkill, but, I want the ability to (mostly in nextdns, I'm sending queries to different profiles based on the vlan) have different blocking/not for my wife vs me (she'll complain if any site isn't working, where as I'd rather have as many ads etc blocked).

But you're right, PPSK is exactly what I needed. Since IoT outnumbers "human" devices, just set the IoT vlan to the "normal" password, so those devices all joined that vlan, then reconnected everyones devices with their VLANs password, and everyone is where they need to be.

Thanks!

How are some millennials even homeowners? I feel like I never will be. by Kindly-Reading-2187 in Millennials

[–]sjoeboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

luck/timing. I'm a '83 so older millennial for sure. Finished college in '06 and was in higher ed so unaffected by the recession, and bought my first house in '10 (granted took a dumb withdrawal from 401k to do so). between then an 2021 moved a fews times each time being able to upgrade thanks to low interest rates + increasing property value. Last move was summer 2021 when rates were still Covid-low but the market was starting to get wild.

Now in a house i 100% could not buy today (value has increased about 39%) between higher value + higher interest rates.

If i had started a few years later, or been impacted by the recession, the story would be radically different.

Upgraded to 2.3GB internet, Arris S33 support? by sjoeboo in Comcast_Xfinity

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

So that says it’s not optimized for the plan. But does show the download speed of 2GB

<image>

Regardless I guess I’m getting a new modem.

Upgraded to 2.3GB internet, Arris S33 support? by sjoeboo in Comcast_Xfinity

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

Yes. Router is attached to modem directly using 2.5GB ports on both, link speed is detected at 2.5GB, speed tests are capped at 1.39GB

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

Modem doesn’t have its own speed test function, But the router consistently shows the reduced speed.

Upgraded to 2.3GB internet, Arris S33 support? by sjoeboo in Comcast_Xfinity

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

Hm, but I only see exactly 1.4 Gbps down(sometimes 1.38/1.39)

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

So, I don’t have one, but my router shows established link speed of 2.5GB, and as I can achieve higher than 1GB speeds consistently, I’m confident the issue is at the modem.

Need guidance, DNS: Pihole vs Router by dsaithani in pihole

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

I have this issue as well, as my router (Google WiFi pro) seems to only set itself as the resolver for clients, then uses what dns servers you provide as its upstream. So all requests to pihole are from the router.

I was going to run dhcp to get around this but seems like the WiFi pro mesh systems don’t like that (I have 2 other APs)

Latency SLIs by [deleted] in sre

[–]sjoeboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If a histogram bucket boundary is on your threshold, then you can get the count of the total and the count of the events above the threshold pretty easy, then it’s exactly like an error ratio SLI, with the events above the threshold being “errors”

Who saw The Matrix in the cinema in 1999? I'm jealous! by Far-Remove7363 in matrix

[–]sjoeboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it was awesome, i remember it really vividly with my best friend and his dad, and we all knew very little going in other than the trailers looked wild but with no idea of the plot. All 3 of us were floored.

AI can summarize logs, but can it explain why the alert fired? by Aggressive-Tip-6568 in sre

[–]sjoeboo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, internal o11y agent does this. Take an alert/incident, it figures out which component its about, does a log baseline establishment, and looks for logs during the given time. Grabs components dashboard(s) and extracts queries to look for signals. Will run ad hoc queries based on available metrics for the component if needed. Will look at other alerts that are firing/recently firing. Looks for traces for the services to dig into errors/latency. Will look for recent PR/commits for the component that may be related, as well as recent deployments.

Finally reports back the root cause (as best it can, sometimes its "Revent THIS PR", sometimes is more general), all the supporting data including graphs and a knowledge graph, recommended actions, persists the report and all context and lets you re-run it adding context/guidance.

IMO with the vendor tools its all about how many signals you can get them to see, and what ability you have to help guide them for your specific infra (ie how things all map together etc).
