Meaning at what rate individual employees quit or get fired in order to anticipate/ automate the hr/management teams department to either hire or adjust salary's to keep a preferred result. lol sorry I'm not an engineer but I find it amazing. Actually horrible at math but find the application brilliant. Would love to code one day.

      @@jonathananderson7990 That's a rather tautological and periphrastic way of putting it, but you're sort of right. The promotion/salary data allows you to build the data points you'd base your model on. Other data categories should be included, but it is common knowledge that those are standard predictors for whether employees try harder or quit.
      What's funny is that they were asked to predict staff rotation specifically (employees moving to and from specific jobs), and yet they weren't given any data on employee promotions which literally tells you which jobs they were moved to and from. That's like me telling you to build a prediction model on how much ice cream I can expect to sell to my current customers in the future, and then refusing to give you the amount of ice cream I'm currently selling to them now.

    2. go to sound settings on your OS, notification.
    3. select a quick, soft sound for notifications, with a 100% volume of it, being actually decreased to 30% of the original.
    4. after your day is over turn on Focus mode on your OS so no more annoying notifications.

Those who fail to make the right decisions early in life end up regretting it. Nevertheless, investing can be difficult and risky doing it solely, For this reason, I advise seeking help from professionals(financial advisors).

    A tip for those suffering teams and outlook PTSD, if you are in a higher mid-level or senior position (basically cant be fired or its very hard), give your leads an ultimatum that you will be off all kinds of comms between say 11am and 5pm and if its urgent, they call your phone or whatsapp/telegram. Idk if its feasible in the states, but I'm a software developer in Bulgaria and I basically revolutionised the company by saying im gonna quit if I am forced to attend more of these stupid meetings (was sole developer on a complex component bought from a competitor). The company was a startup and quite flexible so they changed the whole methodology of working. No more than 2 hours of scheduled meetings per day for developers, disabling of email system and mandatory corporate chat offline time. Most days people dont even go to daily syncs bc we all have our work and we turn all comms off and focus. Its soooo much better

  • @Zerviscos

    Engineer here as well, but on mechanical design for an aerospace tech company. When I was working from home full time during Covid(we still work from home but it's only 2x a week now), whenever I had a late night, I'd only literally wake up on the first team meeting of the day which was around 1 hour after the actual time work starts and attend the meeting basically still half asleep for the first few mins and just comb my hair with the cam off cause of my usual bed hair until I turn it on after I fix it. Then I'd really only eat breakfast and do morning stuff after the meeting and come back to actually work after like another hour. So I basically just waste 2 hours usually before I actually start working which I'd also offset by only timing off until much later...which can be one of the reasons why I'd stay up late in the first place. It's an endless loop lol. Depending on how complex the design is though, I can usually just catch up pretty easy, just happened that most complex product designs usually can take months to even years to finish.
    Although we use Zoom for meetings, Teams has a notification for it and I basically have it at 100% volume with my laptop on standby mode, so it's basically my alarm clock lol. The good thing I say about our work culture was that after your shift ends, that's it you're basically free from work. Most of the time, managers understand your shift is done and won't bother you. There are some exceptions, but those are rather few and far between and would mostly occur once you're at a higher technical level where they need your skills, CND is near, or are part of the management team. The only time I experienced still working after shift/being called into a meeting was when I became a lead/focal engineer for a project, but most of the times outside that I'm very much free after work. But meeting frequencies really isn't an issue for me, it's more of dealing with directors, engineering managers, customer reps(usually engineers as well), even vps for departments and ceos, which I shit you not can be intimidating even in online meetings especially since we're in aerospace it has very strict standards with little room for tolerance(our customers are companies like Boeing, Airbus, government, and private airline companies). Which is the biggest reason why I keep declining any management offers that has been continuously given to me over the years ever since I got offered a supervisory role for my team a year before covid.

    Tip for anyone who manages engineers: Don't let them mix with your client CEOs unless they're particularly proficient in bullshittery. It'll only cause your company more problems when they call the company's CEO to yell at them because their engineer laughed outright at their blockchain-machine-learning-IOT feature.
    Nearly lost too many clients in the past due to fellow engineers (and even myself once) miscommunicating with a CEO. CEOs wanna dream, devs wanna get the thing done. Worst combination to throw together when reluctant. Great combination when working on the same side and understanding.

      @@selahattins1644 I admire your curiosity! There's a wide range of things a bioinformatician can find themselves doing. I think it falls into either 1) Use statistics to find patterns in biological/genetic data or 2) Create tools to improve existing methods and support researchers. I myself do #2, I enjoy designing software applications and making peoples lives a little easier. The applications for #1 are ENDLESS, here's a short list:
      -analyze gene expression data to determine what genes are associated with certain traits (like cancer or schizophrenia)
      -analyze variations in DNA to determine how likely it is a variant is contributing to a trait
      -put together DNA profiles of organisms that have never been modeled before (like certain monkey species or ancient DNA)
      -Develop a statistical method to determine how likely it is someone might contrive a disease or outcome based on their genetic/symptomaic profile (really useful for medical pre-scanning questionaries or genetic tests)
      The end goal of bioinformatics is to improve our ability to predict if someone will develop a deleterious trait, or to develop biological-based methods to treat deleterious traits. Most of the time this involves drug development, but with new gene editing technologies the possibilities are definitely expanding. I hope this helps!

    I was sent home on March 2020, during those first months literally only worked like 1-2 hours a day. Sometimes 4-5 when really busy but was still getting my full salary and benefits.
    Then changed jobs in 2021 for permanent remote position. The cereal lunches..
    the rushing from bed to your desk because you have a meeting and you’re still sleeping ..
    the short management meetings..
    This distractions.. procrastination… laziness … loneliness .. no social interaction.. I came to HATE that lifestyle.
    Then on Jan 2023 started a new position full time in office.. I LOVE IT. I really missed the human interaction, the waking up in the morning and expressing your feelings on the clothes your wear to the office that day.
    Getting constantly groomed, going out to lunch. The diminishing anxiety and loneliness , IT IS AMAZING for my mental health.
    You don’t know what you have till you loose it.
    On-site work is so much better on my case.
    Separating your work and home en environments will do wonders for your mental health.
