Dear Diary,

Today is Thursday, July 11, 2024. The weather is sunny.

While doing Duolingo exercises on the shuttle bus today, I noticed a colleague was also using Duolingo. I am currently on the second part of the fifth stage, and the topic is ordering food delivery. When I arrived at our company, I walked through the lobby into the cafeteria. Today's breakfast was wonton soup.

When I arrived at my workstation, there was already a pile of work waiting for me. Before I could finish the work at hand, a meeting had already started. It was a ticket review meeting. We get a lot of tickets every week, so we need to regularly review and identify issues with the product for resolution. Yesterday, the leader asked me to complete the classification and marking of tickets before the meeting, but because I was in meetings all afternoon, I never had time to finish this task. Now I must hurry to finish it before it's my turn to speak. Long meetings are such a pain!

Today we received a ticket reporting that a function running on our platform was not receiving any input traffic. After spending some time checking, I found that an OOM kill status had occurred in the pod of the function. In the case of an OOM restart, the fission-agent will not re-specialize this pod, causing the function process to never start. Fission can be so frustrating!

In the afternoon, there was another two-hour long meeting...

After the meeting, I finally had time to write my document for tomorrow's sharing meeting. The meeting host is already urging me! Tomorrow, I need to make an external presentation to explain to users the "Component Management" feature we developed in the first half of the year. This is a company internal infrastructure application deployment platform based on the open-source project ArgoCD. I hope I won't mess up tomorrow.

Goodnight, Diary. Until tomorrow.

Best, Jasper Van
