SEEKING WORK | EU / UK-based | On-demand, targeted SRE expertise

I provide short-term (1-2 weeks), high-end SRE consulting services focused on solving specific operational problems in emergency or high-pressure situations. I deal with all aspects of systems engineering and SRE / DevOps processes, as well as with strategic and evaluation needs.

My expertise is based on 30 years of hands-on technical experience in all areas of IT, but especially in designing, building and operating complex, hybrid platforms for global clients.

I usually work with clients who:

- have urgent operational issues that need immediate outside expertise
- are launching a new service but are not sure if it is customer-ready
- have unstable or non-scaling systems that are impacting end-users
- are worried about process gaps that affect service delivery quality

Examples of work I've done for clients:

- Implementing multi-level cloud redundancy
- Tracking down performance bottlenecks
- Stabilisation of complex applications
- Validation of new projects before production
- Intelligent logging & monitoring implementations
- Effective dashboarding and alerting
- Tool selection & best practices

I have extensive experience in a wide range of SRE / DevOps / SysAdmin tools, most AWS and Azure services (at a global level), and many data processing technologies like Kafka, Spark, Storm, Solr, Elasticsearch, Redis, Hadoop, etc.

> I turned our product from a total waste about to be cancelled into a promising tech with some momentum, but I spent all my time coding instead of writing about coding, and I likely won’t get promoted again this cycle.

As a FAANG SWE, what I am reading is "I spent two years cranking out code without doing any design work. My manager and TL never suggested I write a design doc, or didn't give me opportunities to do so."

At least at my employer - where, yes, you typically need to do design work to get promoted - that shouldn't happen. It's a failure of management if it did.
worked there for 12 years. deepmind uses slack. many other teams do to. Unofficially.
Even worse, any modern CSP would forbid this anyway.
Because worse that any current build system is having to learn and migrate to a new one.
> One of the things I have noticed in both my full time jobs at this point is that my direct managers have had no idea what I do day to day.

FYI: This isn’t normal. It’s not even particularly common in the industry as a whole. It is, however, a hallmark of dysfunctional companies that are headed in the wrong direction.

If you find yourself consistently stuck under clueless managers or working in companies that reward all the wrong things, it might be worth reevaluating your choice of companies and shaking up your career a bit.

It’s not good to be stuck in dysfunctional companies for years. This is how people become disgruntled and cynical.
Because 1) "Experts" you hear about usually aren't, especially if their motivation for pushing predictions is related to something other than being correct; 2) Innovation works through "novelty by combination" and one cannot really predict where it will go.

Crypto's ending is still better than Snow Crash's (though I prefer SC overall). Someone sent me a great meme yesterday showing the back half of the horse fully drawn and the front half barely a stick figure of a horse and the back half said "Stephenson starting a book" and the front was "Stephenson finishing a book." I dunno if I've ever seen a truer meme in my life.
> I think societies are about the find out the real price of having babies now that they are not simply a byproduct of sex or women not having power.

Can you expand on that, I'm not sure I follow?
Good question!

The main difference is that Chartbrew is tailored more for companies working with clients in need of dashboards. What this means is that Chartbrew has granular permissions on dashboard-level to allow the clients to explore the data, a templating feature to quickly create dashboards for new clients, and easy embedding to get any chart in your own product.

Not yet documented, but Chartbrew also has an API for creating dashboards from templates through its API. This will allow product owners to spin up a new dashboard whenever they get new users/clients in their platform.

User signs up -> New dashboard is created -> User is given access to the new dashboard -> Charts are made available in other apps

Another obvious difference is in the feature set that is more vast in the other two solutions. This is both a blessing and a curse. Some feedback I received was that it was easy to create visualizations because of the simplicity. I'm always improving on current visualization aspects whenever a client needs something more complex, though. I'm aware I would never be able to come close to the more mature solutions, so I'm serving other use-cases instead. Hope this all makes sense :)

Shortform | REMOTE | Full-stack Engineer | Full-time / Part-time | $100-200k

https://www.shortform.com/

Do you feel overwhelmed by the amount of stuff to learn? Do you have hundreds of books in your to-read list and articles saved in Pocket, but wish you could extract the main ideas faster?

The goal of Shortform is to make the world's best ideas more accessible. Right now we create the world's best book guides, with in-depth chapter-by-chapter summaries, original insights building on the book's ideas, and distillation of the book into actionables. They're like superpowered book summaries.

Eventually, we want to summarize and contextualize every meaningful idea published each day, in every form of media (books, articles, podcasts, videos). Imagine you had a magical Chrome extension that takes any page you're viewing (like a top HN article) and gives you a high-quality summary, along with summaries of alternative viewpoints. That's a vision of what we're building.

--------

Company status: We launched 2.5 years ago. Shortform was funded by the founder (who has built multiple bootstrapped profitable companies in the past) and has taken on no outside investment. We "could be profitable" but are reinvesting in growth. Engineering team consists of 4 full-stack engineers.

Technology: Vue.js on frontend, Flask/Python on backend.
(Keywords for searchers with tech flexibility: Angular, React, Django)

About the role: Ideally you're fullstack on the web, and comfortable on both front-end and back-end. Position is remote (current team is worldwide). Fulltime / parttime roles available. We're able to pay competitive market salaries (i.e. not decreased by equity).

Email jobs+engineerhn@shortform.com to get more details about the company, what we're building, and the application process.

Either way - how does the front end developer get into play?

In a setup where the frontend is doing the rendering, you can give the frontend developer access to a directory with static assets that get output to the browser verbatim.

How do you give them the ability to "have a Django template filter" without them having the ability to mess with the rest of the backend? Or do you set up a second server that talks to the APIs of the first server?

Usually, I see it done when the blog owner doesn't have a robust server or the savvy to run some shell scripts.

Many small blogs are hosted in servers with pre-configured static document sharing that won't let any server-side dynamic code run beyond "Fetch the static document at path X and echo it." In that context, you either need to run a framework that will assemble your dynamic page client-side, or you need to run a script that will pre-chew your blog from some more convenient format into a rich static HTML document and post it to the server.

A remarkable number of bloggers would consider that second option a bridge too far.

If you use any of the JetBrains IDE's then full Clojure support is just a plugin install away (Cursive), likewise with VS Code (Calva). It really is pretty effortless these days.
Doesn't that happen to anyone when you focus near or far?

Am I missing something?
This. Anytime management asks you to do some work, ask them -
"How will this play into my promotion?"

If they can't come up with tangible points, don't do the work. You are not risking anything because at this point, the manager has already decided they want to string you along.
I had zero problems keeping myself still for an MRI, but I really wished I had picked a more comfortable position.

> Two (non-collinear) lines share a plane. The angle on that plane is just the ordinary angle, no matter how many dimensions the two lines are embedded in.

Okay, but now you've got a plane in n-dimensional space. How do you define/calculate the angle between the two vectors without falling back on the dot product?

You could say: The angle between the two vectors A and B is defined as the smallest rotation around their common normal vector so that the rotated first vector points in the same direction as the second vector. But what is the normal vector? It's a third vector C which is 90° to each of A and B. Now your definition is cyclic. Okay, then: C is a non-zero vector so that dot(A,C)=0 and dot(B,C)=0. Now you're back to using dot-products for defining angles in higher-dimensional space.
There's a lot of fair points here. We (big company not fitting in the personal/free tier of the subscription) were using docker desktop (on windows 10) to build windows (server) targeted images.
From the various comments, it seems like it's really not a common use case. The question I have is : how does one is supposed to proceed with this specific use case if the subscription is not considered for various reasons ? Switch the dev environment to windows server ? Drop the windows container ball and switch to Linux based one ? Are we the only company doing this kind of stunt ? (and feeling a kind of vendor-lock-in vibes right now ?)
The title is garbage. lol The rest was easy to consume though and the footage was much appreciated.
It is a new version of the “we didn't believe number 4 when we saw it!” method of click-baitery.

Not sure if the footage is worth the hyperbole, I was not ready for clicking “no” to every single partner on their list.

I noticed an example of this when I set up split-horizon DNS for my local Home Assistant server.

Apparently if Android gets an IPv6 address it expects an IPv6 DNS address as well or it will fall back to Google's own. Had to configure the PiHole with an ULA address and make the router serve that.
