Efficiency is a comparison - - a ratio -- of the useful work performed by a machine or in a process to the total work needed to complete a process. Speed and efficiency are related, but they're not synonymous.” Input / Output

Hinweis der Redaktion
- How much input must you provide to equal the output of others? What makes you different? How do you become more efficient? By learning how things work and not rely on google.
- Spread the word by sharing what you learn. You must measure the effort vs reward, not everything is worth doing Continuous Improvement Who here considers themselves a sysadmin? False! Everyone is a developer in here.
- One way to become more efficient is to speed up the your feedback loop and method of learning. Remove the search engine delay if possible. A debugger can help.
- Do I need to specify quotes in hash key name? How does the dig function work? Don’t just bang on the keyboard. Bang on the keyboard with purpose!
- Is there a better way? I had perspective from the programming world.
- Put down your abacus and play inactively.
- We can’t test thoughts with unit tests (us humans are too lazy) Don’t think, know. Validate your thoughts in the debugger.
- The goal is to bring the environment as close as possible, build scale models at home before you build an interstate.
- Overall goal is to completely replicate the catalog compilation process without the server or a real environment. This is an advanced feature and requires access to the puppet infrastructure
