Server Fault Blog: Welcome Jason Harvey, Server Fault Valued Associate #0000009!

Greg Bray on February 26, 2015

The Site Reliability Engineering team at Stack Exchange is excited to announce our latest addition – Jason Harvey!

Jason hails from Alaska and although he cannot see Russia from his house, he is officially our most Northwestern US Employee beating Geoff Dalgas by over 1500 miles. He will be working remotely except when we decide to fly him to the mainland to help move some servers or sample the excellent work of the NYC Stack Exchange Chefs.

Jason brings a wealth of knowledge to our team from his previous roles working at reddit and Rackspace, and he has already been extremely helpful in our ong …

user259867

This is confusing. Are SE employees still numbered, or is it just the SRE unit?

user259867

Also, "SF associate" sounds like they are employed by a separate entity, rather than SE.

hichris123

@bjb568 Uh... wut? "child rights and equality"?

bjb568

00:35

oh right women are more important carry on

Ben Collins

@FamousBlueRaincoat they stopped numbering a long time ago. He's just the 9th SRE

hichris123

I think we can all agree children are not equal in abilities + rights.

bjb568

I think you have a bias towards certain age ranges.

Ben Collins

to split hairs a little, I'd say equal in rights, but not liberties

Frank

hichris123

00:37

Well, there's a lot of things in which the "age of majority" is 18. So...

@BenCollins For the most part, yeah.

Frank

yep

user259867

Right to vote, for example.

Frank

@FamousBlueRaincoat depends what on

bjb568

Yeah, I do agree that discrimination built into the law is a problem.

Ben Collins

@hichris123 right. the way rights are implemented for people we categorize as "not able to make adult judgements" is a little different, but they're the same basic rights

Frank

@BenCollins Not good - the list of 'similar questions' featured nothing even remotely similar!

user259867

well, it depends on what you mean by "similar". By definition, there is something about those questions that is similar to the ones you answered. It just might not be what you think of as relevant :-)

@Mooseman why am I the "hero" of Stack Overflow as mentioned in your profile (you know, the comment with 31 stars?)

Laughed almost til I cried

don't know why that tickled me so much

Jon Ericson

@HoboSapiens Right now it's a really basic search based on tag. (Score >= 0, unanswered, and no more than 4 hours old.) If all goes well, we'll invest more in improving the algorithm. If people don't use it, we'll probably abandon the experiment.

Hobo Sapiens

@BenCollins Well, the question I answered was about reading .ICO files. The so-called 'similar' questions feature Doxygen, Bluetooth and multi-threading. There were two that referred to writing files, so that's similar, I guess.

@JonEricson Based on my extensive sample (of 1) I won't be hurrying to press the button again.

Ben Collins

^missed Jons comment there. Tag based, there you go.

Frank

and they're gone.

Ben Collins

I self-deleted because to someone reading who wasn't here in realtime they wouldn't make much sense ;-)

Frank

but that's what chat's for :P

Morning!

J. Steen

I detest sympathy upvoters. That question has zero future use whatsoever.

Well. Except to tell one person the difference between members and local variables and how they're initialized.

Patrick Hofman
