Site Slow Down and Issues
I haven't actually done anything to fix it. I've been keeping on eye on some monitoring of the server, there was an intermittent database process that was pinning CPU usage (and spiking disk access) to above 100% when we typically average below 50%. That was what was causing the slowdowns or freezes. I would reset the virtual environment when I noticed the site was unresponsive and it would fix it temporarily. I haven't had time to dig further into which query was actually causing it. That would have been my next step to address it, but today we look to be back at typical CPU usage. So, all the better for me, if this just fixed itself. I still need to do some digging just to make sure someone hasn't hacked the server and is mining bitcoin or something

Site Slow Down and Issues
You may have noticed that the site has been somewhat slow today. Trying to diagnose what is causing it, but probably won't be able to dig in deeply until later today. May notice some intermittent up and down time while I try to figure out what is causing it

Argblows and Gapper game day
It will be on every other team. How many times in the CFL have other teams had to chip in to bail out a franchise.

He was also a big wrestling fan, and my theory is he really looked at himself as the equivalent of a wrestling heel.- Ponies @ Fort Hew (#DefendTheFort): The MahFaggin GDT

Whatever semantics you use, it is paying someone less for working at home. I guess it would depend on a lot of things. Like does everyone have the option to work at home and choose not to. Or do some roles require people to be in the office. But I would be much more in favour of subsidizing things like parking. As mentioned above, remote work also saves a company a bunch through office space and related costs. Interesting enough there were companies who pioneered remote work that had sliding pay scales based on what city you worked in. But that has gone more and more away as remote work has become more prevailant. If you pay someone less who is a high performer for any reason, you tend to lose that person over time.- Random Jets News

Why do you think people who work from home should get paid less? I work for a company that is 100% remote and has been since it started, even before Covid. Gives them access to hire from a bigger talent pool, as we have employees from all around the world, in 40 different countries. It’s about company culture and being deliberate in who you hire. They even decided to do things like give everyone 6 weeks holidays to match what the Europeans in the company typically get. Hire right and treat your employees well, and good things tend to happen.
