I wrote an algorithm that could detect top talker trends from network flows. At the time it could reliably work up to 40Gbps depending on flow sample rate and your definition of reliable.

Not sure if it's in use anymore.

I didn't even think to look. Thanks!

Scrolling on jebora one handed is janky. It's too quick to interpret a slightly angular vertical movement as a horizontal movement.

No idea, but it's an easy thing to fix, so why not.

ChatGPT.

i recently started my job search, and asked it for a list of top 10 companies with recent funding announcements and remote work that fit my profile.

I expanded on this a few times, reached out to their career pages and recruitment. Landed 2 interviews and I'm in the final round for both. It took about 35 applications.

It also helped me tune my resume and cover letter. Be sure to put things through an AI detector to avoid being filtered out for sounding like AI

Don't be afraid to take unskilled jobs to slow the financial bleed while you continue your search.

The key to finding a Job is absolutely networking. Take a look for local SW groups, defcon groups, hacker spaces, start up scenes, etc.

I've received my last few jobs through networking. I've been fortunate enough to not need to job search in a number of years.

Once your settled in a field, network network network.

But you need to know what field to do it in first.

You should broaden your searches. Both by location and vocation.

By the sounds of it you would be a good fit in any operational, logistical, or managerial role. See what remote opportunities there are Canada wide.

That would also print the colon

Edit: missed the separator token. Sorry guys

A good (technical) interview should feel like a fun conversation with a friend on the topic at hand.

Most people are trying to see if they'll like you, and that you can pull your weight. Assuming you're qualified the second part isn't an issue.

Practice with a friend or family member. Get comfortable talking about yourself, and post experiences. Get comfortable asking follow up questions. That comfort will let you be yourself during the interview so the interviewers can actually gauge your fit.

Try applying to NOCs and SOCs

 

A little update on the racking the basement lab.

New patch panel and cables made my life much easier. All the packets are flowing! Working out some KVM issues while I get rancher harvester deployed.

 

Rack is wired (patch cables ordered). Unfortunately the second hand patch panel is a bad idea, less than half the ports are functional...

I ordered a rj45 cat6 through panel and a bunch of premade cables. Should be here at the end of the month!

Finally got around to racking up my lab! (Still needs wiring up, but that's tomorrows problem)

Top to bottom:

  • 1u PDU
  • 1u cable management
  • 1u custom super micro pfsense build
  • 1u tplink jetstream. 24x1Gbe 4x SFP
  • 1u cable management
  • 2u patch panel
  • 4u custom super micro server
  • A shelf with a UPS and a gaming rig (ryzen with a 1070ti)

Going to run rancher harvester + rancher vm + k8s cluster. Usual media stack, nextcloud, pihole, etc etc.

Mostly just want a cluster to play with and harvester seems fun!
