  • Threads like this are great!

    Not for infromative purposes, but as a reminder how whipped and nonsensical cat owners can be.

    I never noticed until I got my own cats though. Used to be a dog person, through and through. Still am, but now I also love my cats.

    Now like dogs, they are individuals so there are adjustments needed but let me just list all that I do with my cats that works amazing for them…

    • ad libitum food, 2 cats, 4 bowls. 2 always full with dry food, 2 always full with water. (Now there’s actually also two massive dog water bowls they have additional access to)
    • Night time crates; when we go to bed, they go to bed. No fuss, they are crate trained just like our 3 dogs.
    • Never outside without a harness/leash. These are pets, and unlike dogs which are easily contained with chains or fences cats are not. Its unethical and plain wrong to let your cat out to kill birds and encroach on others property. Barn cats are another tough topic, I won’t touch on cause that’s a situation. But irrelevant anyways since these are house cats.

    These 2 cats are healthy af, not overweight and well they eat and drink well.

    I’ll add, I grew up with ad libitum dog feeding too. That said my 3 dogs currently are on a 2 meals a day regiment. This is purely due to the fact we have some overly food motivated breeds who will fight and we need to have them seperate when food is involved in any capacity (their food and food in general)

    This rant just to say, cat owners very often come off as the type that try to sell chunks of gypsum and amethyst to heal your woes.







  • I mean you’re highlighting some points that support how open and decentralized that this place is?

    It seems there is a healthy sentiment among users and understanding the tolerance paradox. Beyond that the ability to discuss around what we (an instance) wants vs what we (Lemmy) wants vs what we (individual users) want is great. The option the federate and defederate is also great, as if there is an instance adding 0 value to any of those prior groups (like lemmy.online), you as a community can decide to not federate. You as a user don’t like that choice? You can go to another instance or make your own! The level of openess and control is really in your hands.

    It’s in git. In our current but on its last legs env we had a inhouse built tool that would compare a release branch with master and build a series files we’d throw at the DBA to run updating procs, tables, views, etc. Had procs built to preserve data when ddl changed and what not. Very painful. This was on Netezza.-

    Now we are moving to Azure Synapse… And we are using Azure DevOps instead of Bitbucket and it works but its jank. Our git repo is now actually tied to the DB through the use of release pipelines. PRs on master will get released automatically… That said most recent update from msft and now it takes 7hrs just for the deployment plan to build.

    Its not great… My company is addicted to stored procs. I hear there is some projects looking into databricks, azure data factory, sparks, etc… For now my life is pain and complaints, just trying to get people to learn to love git. BI here before I joined unfortunately not IT minded.

    Edit: didn’t even touch on testing… And frankly half the devs seem like they don’t/don’t know how to even do impact analysis… If you change a column, at minimum search the code base for impacts… Don’t just deploy and blow up our prod cause you’re mismatching sizes
