You can also hire someone from anywhere in the world to transcribe songs for you and learn your heart out. As a yuppie with a heavy interest in indie music living in a city still filling to the brim with music this is literally the best tim

True, but pay isn't the only thing to take into account. Work-life balance, training opportunities, having to be on-call or not and being compensated if so, and promotional opportunities that can get you into a higher bracket with the

At least for the Bay Area, employees have a plethora of companies they can migrate to if they aren't being treated right.

Practice guitar and read a book usually, or go to the gym and work out. Incredible what you can do with a healthy work-life balance.

Could be argued that it has shifted to editing an attribute/variable/template/whatever in your config management tool rather than directly editing /etc config.

Yeah it's just a shame that multiple choice tests are the standard rather than practical examinations. All the multiple choice tests look for is if you have memorized their documentation and can figure out the test format rather than i

That question has also been asked so many times most candidates who have done a few minutes of googling can give you the "right" answer. See here: https://github.com/alex/what-happens-when/blob/maste

RHCSA has probably been the most useful in terms of applied knowledge, while a few various AWS certs (associates, sysops) have been valuable in terms of being a consultant at an AWS Partner. I've found being able to demonstrate knowled

Why not set them as environment variables? Add a debug mode or whatever and then if set, pull from environment vars instead of config files. Not saying you should trust Kite to keep your code, but as a general practice might be a better ide

You also get the benefit of it the jobs being built on a shared environment. If developer A wants to build a job, $THING-A and developer B wants to build a their job, $THING-B, there's no having to look through code for environment var

When not submitting resumes, try contributing to some widely used github projects that interest you. There are recruiters out there that specifically look at commit history for potential applicants, plus it'll help up your skill level.

Curious how these handle high traffic. If no pre-warming is needed and it can handle higher traffic spikes, I can see this being a potential alternative to AWS ELB.

Context switching is not a good way to do things. I've found listening to music and using my tendency to get distracted on finding songs and artists that go for 10's of minutes to keep myself occupied while doing work.

The illusion of privacy. Barrier to entry for using Uber is not exactly high and when you're intoxicated you may forget or simply not care.

The problem with this is, as a rider, I personally would not want to have to be constantly expecting a dirty car. If one out of every 3 cars has vomit or syringes in it or feces, I would personally stick with a service that has human driver

The difference is you have much more privacy in an Uber vehicle. Someone about to make a mess in the subway might be more inclined to wait until they get off vs a private vehicle with just them in there.

How is this going to combat people who make a mess inside the vehicle after going 100 percent without human drivers/test engineers? If it picks up a drunk person at 3 AM who then throws up inside the car, is it vomit-aware and knows it
