News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

I work as an application engineer for a SaaS company and I do a lot of troubleshooting up and down the stack, but I do not write code except for some console apps or scripts. I do a lot of DB work, some DevOps stuff like cert renewals, custom reports, write bug tickets, etc. The job is not that stressful and I earn close to what you are looking for in terms of salary. I actually expect the amount to be in that range in the near to mid term after some restructuring of our department and reevaluation of the position. They are actually going to be hiring in Q4 for two similar positions, possibly remote. Please let me know if you have any interest!
Ha, I curse Jira daily and I am glad to see I am not alone. So many baffling performance problems or design choices.
Atlassian does not seem to have an interest in listening to their users. My workflow would be so much better if they implemented browser or desktop notifications, but they only support email or extensions/add-ons if you self-host. Our company uses cloud though, so despite all the countless threads asking for native functionality, they insist it is not important for users.
