    was tasked with setting up a new test environment this sprint. Figured out real quick that we need to automate this somehow. We have way, way, too many policies, security groups, roles, passwords, etc. It's been a pretty miserable week.

    Nah, I'm interested in hearing what you're working on if it fits into what I asked in even a general sense. I personally work on physical and vision datasets

    I get hit up by recruiters all the time in the Atlanta area, just start going through LinkedIn and Glassdoor. Were you a dev yourself?

    I wouldn't sweat it, take your time and choose a company you feel good about because there are tons of jobs here.

    LMAO, can't believe it since I'd be probably the most ignorant Elixir guy speaking, but my talk got accepted. Now I have to convince my wife to let me go while she takes care of our 2 year old. :ohnoes:

    I have to go to a wedding in San Antonio the next month so maybe I can convince her for all of us to go to SF for a quick trip.

    Anyone have any experience using VMWare's Clarity guidelines?

    We're adopting their UI guidelines while using our own internal Angular 8 component libraries. Starting wireframing my project soon so I've got to spend some time looking it over.

    Who has a good book recommendation for getting introduced to Python? I fully plan on using hands on models and free course work, but I have a vacation planned next month and would like some extra reading material while sitting my ass on the beach.

    For reference I’m in info security and want to diverse my skill set, plus introduce some scripts for automating processes.

    Whats the protocol for utilizing LSP against docker containers.

    I want to utilize python-lsp so I can have my django niceties, but bc I'm not using a virtualenv python-lsp doesn't recognize the django syntax.

    Any way around this outside of building a venv

    I’ve been doing exclusively node for 3 years, trying (again) to add some new skills. Python seems the way to go for big data/machine learning type work so I’ll give it another shot.

    Noob question, trying to put a Boolean string together for a customer and I keep getting an error. Where did I fuck up?


    cur_title: (“underwriter~2) AND degrees: bachelors AND majors: (finance or accounting) AND (“Associate in Fidelity and Surety Bonding” OR AFSB) AND NOT cur_company: liberty mutual

    idk what language this is or if it's typed how you coded it, but you've got some strings in quotes, some not and the first cur_title just has a quote at the start of the string.

    I don’t understand why every company doesn’t switch to elixir

    There’s so many things it does out of the box that you have to implement yourself in python/other languages

    Look up what OTP is in Elixir/Erlang and supervision trees.

    This is the talk that turned me on to Elixir and the BEAM (vm that runs the languages similar to the JVM).

    Looks cool. Haven’t had time to watch the video but I will. So are supervision trees just some sort of orchestrator that monitors processes and restarts/stops unhealthy ones?

    OTP just seems like the middleware/libraries used on top of the Erlang language?

    fuck, man

    had a 4 part final interview for a position that would have been a huge step up for me. Nailed the first 2 parts which were all practical application/explanations of concepts but struggled in the last 2 which were data structure heavy.

    I get why they ask those questions but it's also kind of annoying since I don't deal with those types of problems at work now and almost certainly wouldn't at that position either.

    at least they were speedy with their rejection email

    now that I think about it I did completely butcher the last question. It was about finding a way to store all words in the dictionary and I didn't mention a tree or trie, which is basically cs 101

    I don’t directly but if I understand correctly it’s the same thing as power automate, or at least close to the same thing, and I have a coworker who’s been doing some PoCs with that and he hasn’t seemed to be too frustrated with it

    Yea Flow is Power Automate I think. Mostly it’s Microsoft’s lack of documentation and any google result is just their MS’s janky version of stack overflow. I’m trying to do basic stuff too.

    this is what I did when I first got started to get my feet wet: https://www.coursera.org/specializations/python#courses

    very good professor, interesting exercises, and python is a good start for beginners

    I'd say once you learn a language then look at something like this. I took Part 1 and 2 a few years ago and felt it was very beneficial in terms of learning basic data structures and programming concepts.

    https://www.coursera.org/learn/algorithms-part1
    https://www.coursera.org/learn/algorithms-part2

    It's Java based still it looks like, but they had some pretty cool automated testing suites setup to "grade" your assignments based on how well you used the algorithms they teach you about.
