More proof that socialists hate honest businesses just trying to get by! Back on topic: I'm presenting my boss with a project plan so that I can more easily track assignments and flag them as needing his input. Hopefully it'll keep him on (my) task--I'm mildly worried that if he were to leave, the successor would say, "What is it you actually do here?"

Comradephate posted:There are at least two fairly easy things you can do. The first one we COULD do but we are required to add verbose names like that. That's the obvious solution since it would flag as a merge conflict, but it does add further complication to the migrations; it's actually best practices to try to be descriptive so you don't have to open every file to track down where a change was made, and so you can tell at a glance what was done. It's an improvement over the automated naming django poops out. The second I already mentioned we can't. Given the too many cooks situation and how long our builds take (~25 min), that's just not feasible to require constant rebasing like that. Even if that were implemented, we would never get anything done, since in 25 minutes you're going to get something else merged in and have to start all over. One thing we do desperately need to do is squash migrations, this poo poo is getting unwieldy. It shouldn't take a new hire a full day just to get our app running on their machine. We have a data scrubber thing that lets us sync a copy of the db down from a QA environment (with all PHI scrubbed out for obvious reasons), but that's not great if you absolutely have to rely on that. You should be able to just run these scripts in order and replicate the db and the data sync should just be a "nice to have" to shortcut setting up poo poo to test on. But the real solution here is that the few people who are supposedly responsible for cross-team visibility and planning should do their loving jobs and at least warn us that we have potential collisions incoming (just link the tickets in JIRA at a minimum so you know to check the other ticket's status before you merge and you can rebase if you go second). Currently they're just scheduling a few meetings and randomly assigning work without any real thought, and yet somehow pulling down more money than the devs....

Just mandate that each migration have a module comment block, and write a script to scrape the module comments and write out a migration changelog. have the script run as a pre-commit hook to ensure that the changelog is always up to date. <2 hours of work to update the linter to mandate the comment block and write the changelog generator. Then if you want to know which migration did what, you just open one file, which seems reasonable to me? I understand that the correct solution is for management to do their jobs, but you can't really force them to do that. You can, however, build tooling to make the problem less bad.

Then if you want to know which migration did what, you just open one file, which seems reasonable to me? I actually really like this, but slightly modified. We could institute a pre-commit hook that aggregates the migration leaves, similar to what the ORM is already doing when attempting the builds, and updates a log similar to package-lock.json for NPM. That way any PR that includes a migration would touch that file, and it would force a merge conflict any time two PRs with migrations are attempting to merge in sequentially regardless of naming conventions.

Is there some magic to getting Server 2016 to reboot when you want it to reboot? We have GPOs for 4 patch groups, for 1/2/3/4 am on Sundays. 2016 servers will all apply patches at that time, and a lot of them will reboot then too. But some just reboot whenever they feel like over the next day or so. We just had one yesterday (that was non-prod, which go on wednesday) that applied patches at 4am and rebooted at midnight. We use WSUS, and we have GPOs with the following settings: Allow Automatic Updates immediate installation - Enabled Always automatically restart at the scheduled time - Enabled (15 minutes) Configure Automatic Updates - Enabled; 4 - Auto download and schedule the install; Install during automatic maintenance - Disabled; Scheduled install day - 1 Every Sunday time 1/2/3/4 Install updates for other Microsoft products - enabled I'm pulling my hair out over this one. It seems so random--most times things rebooting on Sunday during the day is fine, most systems aren't really used on the weekends (and the ones that are we patch separately). It is something I'd like to figure out though as it makes no sense to me. And all the stuff I've found in Google searches is about getting Server 2016 (or mostly Windows 10) to not ever reboot, because most people don't want to patch at all. We have the opposite problem, where we want it to patch/reboot but predictably

Nope, two companies doing virtual code bootcamp class stuff (Udacity and Thinkful). Pissing me off now: West Coast people assuming everyone is on Pacific time, even when I explicitly give my availability with time zone attached. I feel like any time I am setting things up with companies in Eastern or especially Central, they ask to clarify a hundred times, but west coast just assume their time is the one true time.

Oh east-coasters are loving awful about scheduling the meetings, but they're well aware it's 5am for you and just don't care. West-coasters just assume their time is THE ONE TRUE TIMETM. I think it's a heavily silicon valley mindset where they all assume every other person in the industry has followed the exact same life and career path they have and they're always emailing someone 3 blocks over, they can't seem to process their remote position being taken by someone in Florida.

I'd much rather work late from time to time and never have to worry about an early morning call that wasn't a true emergency than the other way around. An early wake up fucks up your day, where a late call is just a moderate annoyance. As a night owl living in the Eastern time zone, operating on West Coast time sounds loving wonderful. If my boss' idea of "9-5" was really noon-8 I'd be a happy man. Thanatosian posted:gently caress morning people. wolrah fucked around with this message at 21:00 on Jul 11, 2019 |

I miss the place I was at from 2015-2017, where the attitude was "show up for this one weekly meeting and if something else pops up that requires real-time communication, otherwise just answer your emails within 24 hours, post an update in Slack when you log on, and get your poo poo done on time, otherwise we don't give a gently caress if you're nocturnal or what." The place I interviewed yesterday is like that, though, which is a huge point in their favor. My ideal day is split up, actually. Start around 11, go run some errands or hit the gym in the afternoon before Florida's daily mini hurricane, come back and work some more until dinner. EDIT: The most obnoxious by far was Gordon Food Service (my only non-remote job in like 8 years). They bragged that they offer "flexible schedules"! That really meant "come in as early as you want", people showed up before 7am. They scheduled our daily standup for 8am sharp and this was not optional....which seems like the exact opposite of "flexible".

I was annoyed, until I found out her daughter was in the emergency room. Then I got re-annoyed when ten minutes into the rescheduled call, she cut the interview short because the role needed significant storage experience, which is nowhere on my resume or LinkedIn profile. The LinkedIn profile that made them reach out to me in the first place.

I work in a factory setting. I was given a company phone. I have a very specialized role and there are systems that gently caress up and can stop production unless I am able to either hotspot-remote in or get called in (I live <10 min away). 10+ minutes of downtime can be thousands of dollars lost. I don't mind, it is what I signed up for, the benefit is no more mandatory overtime and basically I make my own schedule. I was going to keep two phones, but got talked into transfering ownership of my number and having the company just fit the bill for my phone. So yeah, free phone, but its technically company owned. They pay my bill, I am available in case issues crop up, avoiding costly downtime. A win-win, right? Big IT and CEO shakeup happened, now they want to install really invasive spyware on my phone. They don't want "company secrets" getting out (lol there are none). I dont want randoms snooping (I send lots of dick pics) Everybody has to do it and it is creating a big row where nobody agreed to any of this, and HR memos out that the company phones are a courtesy and purely optional. Myself along with a few others are probably going to just hand out phones back, and extract ourselves from this 'on call' grey area. Naturally they are being big cunts about this and not letting us get our phone numbers back. For perspective, our CFO advised our head PCL/Electrician, who is a loving rockstar, to give his phone back and not worry about the plant.

One mass text/email/messenger and every is updated anyway.

Shut up Meg posted:Take this golden opportunity to highlight your importance to the company. Strong this. My general policy is that if you want me to be reachable outside of working hours, you have to buy me a phone. I've made exceptions for places that provide a reasonable stipend to cover my phone bill, but that gets them pagerduty, not admin on my phone, nor am I giving them my phone number. If you need me, page me. if I'm on vacation, I'll delete the app. re: new phone numbers: The main thing stopping me from replacing my number is that my dad refuses to learn new things. It has taken him probably two years to adapt to me changing my email address, I can't imagine how long a phone number change would take.
