Hello, as a outdoor enthusiastic I have developped an interest in meteorology because I always check weather forcast from time to time for my next outings.

I have worked the textbook "The atmosphere - an introduction to meteorology" by Lutgens, and I have some basic knowledge of meteorology.

However, the textbook is mostly US-focused, and I am based in the EU (Switzerland). As I dig deeper I found that there are still a lot of concepts that I am not familiar with, for example

• Foehn wind, Bise wind etc
• Geona low, Vb weather pattern
• Omega block
• North Atlantic oscillation
• etc etc

My question is, how do I get familiar with these concept systematically? Are there any textbook / resources with a focus on the EU region specifically ? Thanks in advance!

Been in switzerland for quite a long time, passing by Fribourg/Freiburg countless times and only TIL it's called Freiburg im Üechtland in German. 😂

Horrible story here.

So my product manager vibe-coded an LLM-powered app and then handed it over to me two days before his three-week vacation.

The app is a content generation pipline, which generates some content that is supposed to be reviewed and corrected by a dedicated QA team. The original plan was that I run the pipeline and deliver content to QA while he is away.

However, at handover this pipeline is only half-baked and it is still very buggy. The generated content does not make sense and it fails most of the time, and the quality is so bad that the QA team can't realistically review it. Instead of simply running the pipeline, I've become responsible for fixing it.

The codebase is extremely difficult to maintain. There are temporary "gotcha" fixes scattered here and there. All documentations are generated by LLM and they are not consistent across the codebase because of the fast iteration. The sub won't let me to add a pic but there is a commit with 10,000 lines of code.

I have Claude available, but every bug fix only make it worse because it only does temporarilly fixes and does not solve the issues systematically.

This has turned me into a bottleneck for the entire workflow. The QA team depends on me to provide usable content, but they can't do their jobs until the pipeline works. Management has high expectations for the project, and we hired the QA team specifically for this project and each day passes without work for them is losing money for the company.

I'm feeling increasingly overwhelmed because I'm being asked to own a critical business process built on top of a half-finished, poorly designed codebase that I am unable to maintain.

What should I do in this case? Should I work overnight to do a refactor? Should I communicate with my manager and the management? Quitting is not an option for me because my visa is tied to my work.

Any advice would be appreciated 🥹

Hello r/Basel community, I lost my laptop yesterday (16.05) on the IR56 train from Biel/Bienne to Basel. The train arrived in Basel at 22:56 and was scheduled to return to Bienne at 23:02.

Unfortunately I only realised it two hours later when I have already left Basel SBB. I have filed a lost and found report but I'd still like to try my chance here in case anyone happens to find it. In the laptop were my travel pics from Norway/Turkey/Iran and they were very important to me.

Let me know where else I can send this to. Delémont Grenchen and Bienne don't seem to have an active subreddit. Tyvm 🥹
