You will need to fit into one of those positions (if it makes you happy) or leave. You have a valuable set of skills and it's a great time to work on your own ideas.

I am currently in a similar boat as you.

So I just read this, the CEO added the below

    insts = [
      @ec2.instances.with_tag('Name', "CloudAMQP-#@name0*").to_a,
      @ec2.instances.with_tag('Name', "CloudAMQP-#@name-*").to_a,
      @ec2.instances.with_tag('Service', 'CloudAMQP').with_tag('Name', "#@name-*").to_a,
    ].flatten

unless they have a variable named "@name0" that first line would've evaluated to "CloudAMQP-*", which would then have the fun happen.

and here I thought it was about land mines.

>> i.e. how stressful is too stressful, until multiple outside people and coaches I was working with remarked to me that I looked incredibly worn down for months on end and it wasn't supposed to be this hard.

@sama did just tweet about saying you look tired[1].

am I understanding this requires one to run Pg on every server that you want to run the query on?

Not necessarily. You could put a Python (with psutil module) server on machines and connect from a single Postgres/FDW server.

here is someone's github that has some sample tests:

the Xen vulnerability must be something severe if they are all doing this. [1] http://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/

just imagine what all those ISPs and hosts who are not on the private list but who use Xen are thinking. They must be crapping themselves, hitting F5 on the announcements page, ready to pounce and fix.

don't forget to add costs for getting TO the airport. BART costs ~$15 (for either Oakland or SFO), by cab (Uber) ~$50. So while $250 might be on the upper side of things, I think $150 isn't exactly right either. so the low $200 range.

To be clear, I got $150 round trip; they said $250 one way. My numbers fit roughly with my experience. Their numbers are ridiculous.

neptune.io's seems to be providing the solution that someone didn't fix during the day whenever an alert fires.

out of disk space -> clean up your disks (e.g. logrotate)

process crash -> should be using a process supervisor

low cpu utilization -> autoscaling

Do you know of any existing solutions that do this automatically ?
