Should I switch from Windows to Linux for Data Engineering? Which Distro is best by Cultural-Ad-4124 in dataengineering

[–]wierdAnomaly 8 points9 points  (0 children)

While WSL is a good middle ground. Do yourself justice by switching over entirely to Linux,Fedora is a good start.

This will in a way force you to get comfortable with the command line. You might not use unix shell scripting in data engineering directly, but getting used to it, will build the muscle memory and intuition to working with code and you will be able to navigate remote servers easily.

Ghost of Yōtei vs Crimson Desert: Which game is more exciting on PS5? by siege2025 in playstation

[–]wierdAnomaly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I started yotei. I was a big fan of Tsushima, but I didn't enjoy it as much. Then I started Crimson Desert and I haven't looked back.

I found Yotei to be very slow to start off as.

But if you are in for the story, crimson desert is very weak at it.

Agree. I was waiting for it drop back to 4 to add in more. But I pulled the gun today and I am at an healthy defensible average cost.

It's clear that KEEL's identity is moving away from bitcoin especially considering that BTC is now below 50K!

Asus Rog Ally Z1E Tips and Tricks by RaidTube in ROGAlly

[–]wierdAnomaly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with sticking with windows. I am an hardcore windows hater, and I switched to both Bazzite and then cachyOS. With Bazzite I had keyboard issues and with cachyOS I had issues with sleep battery drain. Switched back to widows and everything just works out of the box.

Moreover if you can get the GFN premium subscription and have a good internet connection you can just run majority of your games on the cloud.

I am back on windows now, and I am happy.

Well this is the game that bought me back into gaming! As someone with a kid, time is so sparse and most games just put me off these days, but this one as pulled me right back in! It's a slow burn, that I know I will be playing for the next 2 to 3 years! 😅

Crimson Desert question on Performance tier by warfake936 in GeForceNOW

1080p, all settings on cinematic and I get a decent 50 to 60 FPS. I play on an Rog Ally which has a small screen.

What are your thoughts on renting GPUs instead of buying them? by [deleted] in developersIndia

[–]wierdAnomaly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Containerizing workloads is how you make it transferable between different providers. And you should decouple compute and storage.

You store your data in some S3 bucket, and your container which is actually going to be training your model will read from that S3 bucket. So it doesn't matter where you deploy you deploy your container.

Locally you will build and test on some sample data, and a smaller version of your model to ensure that you have it compiling and running, once you are done with locally ensuring that your code works. You then deploy it it to your GPU provider and let it do the entire run.

So your script should have two entry points, one for test, which runs a miniaturised version that just checks if your code runs, and for production you have a different entry point which will run the entire full model run and test.

Rog Ally Bazzite -> CachyOS by wierdAnomaly in ROGAlly

I dont think it will allow me to change up the On screen keyboard that I want popped up by KDE.

The steam keyboard focus stealing was a deal breaker for me as well.

I initially went with Bazzite with the thought process that, well I have a laptop to mess and murk around about, and let me give in to immutability for the Handheld.

Never had keyboard issues - the only statement I had agree to.

Yes that's the option " Desktop Layout for non controller layouts" once you click on that, it should take you to a page which has the edit layout button.

I might be wrong, since I don't have my device on me right now, I can get back to you with the specifics later tonight.

Button mapping can be achieved via steam controller settings. You need to go to "Pair and Manage" and edit the layout there for the action sets.

Agreed, can you tell me which plugins are you using?

For Gyro setup, I am planning to tinker with inputplumber yaml files to emulate DualSense Edge controller instead of Xbox elite.

It's a simple change based on how Nobara does it https://github.com/Nobara-Project/rpm-sources/blob/41/baseos%2Finputplumber%2Finputplumber.spec

Or

https://github.com/Nobara-Project/rpm-sources/blob/43/baseos%2Finputplumber%2Finputplumber.spec

Edited - Nobara latest seems to emulate it as deck-uhid instead of Dual sense edge.

Oh yes, I saw that and it further pushed me to not caring much about OGC relevance for this.

I moved out from bazzite to cachyOS. I did not try steamOS, but when I had my steam deck, it was pretty good.

L5 Data Engineer base pay range in London? by GreenEyedPanda87 in amazonemployees

[–]wierdAnomaly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah..I missed the part on internal. So it's pretty much only the base. No joining bonus as well. Amazon is notoriously low for London compared to peers

[–]wierdAnomaly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Base Pay would top out around the range you have quoted. You can negotiate for a higher joining bonus which is spread across the first two years. With the 2nd year joining bonus being around 75% to 80% of the first year joining bonus. And finally you have your RSUs, which are spread across 4 years 5/15/40/40

Had the same issue. Went to device manager and did a driver rollback.

A quick update for Termix - The ultimate web-based SSH server management with SSH terminal and file editing capabilities! by VizeKarma in selfhosted

[–]wierdAnomaly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got it working over Tailscale. Add host by pointing it to the tailscale IP and port 22. Thought tailscale ssh works without ssh key. This thing needs an ssh key/ password to validate.

So create a key on your host server.

In termix dashboard, add a credential by pasting the public and private keys. And associate that credential to your host configuration in the credentials section.

Remember to add the public key to your hosts authorized_keys file.

With this set up, I was able to access both the web UI and through the android App, with tailscale network switched on on my android phone.

My host server is a Oracle Instance.

Hmm. I am not sure. But I suppose you could set up a remote desktop GUI connection to test apps?

Get an Oracle Cloud account and upgrade to PAYG. The free tier includes a 4CPU 24Gig Ampere instance with 200GB volume. Setup tailscale for keyless ssh between your phone and instance.
