I love surprise 4:30 PM meetings on a friday. Best time to have an unbounded meeting with upper management.

I still make my power point decks by hand - and everyone asks me how to prompt copilot to get the same beautiful slides. Oh baby girl, it’s called talent. If you want to learn it, you got to earn it.

Yeah - it gets really useful when you’re spinning up like a dozen similar hosts at once and want it repeatable but programatic. Ive it the problem it solves, but my brain doesn’t work the way nix demands it to 😋

I keep setting up new debian instances, with little tweaks here and there based on what im doing - and so it seems to reason that nix would let me define how I'd want certain systems built repeatedly. The cost is learning nix - which I am not yet willing to do.

Other companies said it was daft to build a scanner into a computer, but I built it all the same, just to show ‘em. It jammed all the time. So I built a second one. That also jammed. So I built a third one. That froze the computer, caught on fire, and jammed. But the fourth one worked!

I was there when analog telephones and ethernet converged… Voice and data, together at last. Packets prioritized from end to end. SCCP, MGCP, and SIP were the rulers of the land, and it was good.

I worked at Timmy’s - I’ve witnessed how things are done behind that counter. “Fresh” is defined by the label in crayon on the pot, which is erasable.

This is the most brain dead shit I’ve heard of. Almost as brain dead as the anti-maskers. Get outta here with that shit - if i don’t want to have my nerves rattles by the cacophony of traffic - thats my business. Fuck you. My nerves, my headphones. mind your fuckin business.

jfc - can social media CEOs just stfu already? This is precisely why we can’t have nice things. I’m tired of the manipulation of all the things we now use to find common ground with others. I forget theres no profit in letting users do what they want without coercion.

Oh boy, just wait until the CIO makes friends with an MSP who promises they can cut the budget in half, then proceeds to both double the budget and increase downtime while never answering requests within the SLA - all while paying half for the same skilled labor!
