On a scale from 1 to 10, how worried are you about Helena? I feel like people are blowing it out of proportion but this happens with any hurricane that gets close.

Blowing it of proportion? With all these trees and a history of falling trees that kill people? The winds are supposed to be extreme. It's better to be safe than sorry…

Have had to study meteorology for a few things in the past. Best guess is this will get pretty gnarly but worst impact will be this afternoon/tonight. 40kt+ wind gusts are no joke …..my worry level is somewhere between a 5-7/10

They didn't close schools today, just govt offices...

Yes they did. A lot of counties and colleges closed and are either doing remote learning or a hard close.

Well so far everyone has canceled their interviews for today and I’ve received numerous emails that EEs will not be attending assignments. I would also prefer to be at home but here I am at my desk just fielding call outs 🎉

You can’t work from home?

I’m slightly worried about a tree falling on my house and possibly a power outage - guess will see how it looks when I get home from a trip tmo (if I get home)

The winds will be significant but 11Alive just said people were joking about the storm but are taking it more seriously after viewing footage from a bridge in Tampa. Who would have thought that an actual hurricane would produce significant damage to a coastal city?

By the time it gets to us it will have lost a lot of its punch. But this is a very dangerous storm. It's going to cause a lot of flooding in Georgia, and the wind damage could be considerable. Just be thankful you aren't near the coastline where it's going to hit, those places will be devastated.

I'll tell you what it is: referencing!

You have to do so much of it, and it's so annoying. You have to cite your sources, but there are so many different formats for citations! And then sometimes you don't even know how to cite something, and how are you supposed to know that unless you ask someone who knows? And even then, they might not be sure whether it should be an in-text citation or a footnote…

Hi All,

Say you have an offer for Senior Test Engineer and SDET (not senior).
Compensation is same. Both the companies are good.

Given the narrowing boundaries between testing and dev, which position is better in the long run? I thought it'd be SDET.
But, I'd like to have expert/experienced opinion.
