Suck a dick

No shit.

Wife works at our electric company in the policy and supply dept. That ship done sailed, we are already fucked.

Since the dipshits got rid of nuclear, we now can’t keep up with the demand as it stands, let alone with the coming ai bullshit.

Buckle up everybody.

GET HIM

lol good

Fair point, I agree. Gets even more fun when I do mtls to MySQL, blech

Haha Jesus, if it’s not even satisfying to fix that’s a real shame :(

Oh yeah, you can be damn sure I’ll never make that mistake again.

One time I was trying to figure out why the MySQL command wasn’t connecting.

mysql -h127.0.0.1 -p6033

Eventually ended up having four different people help me in a huddle. After two hours we figured it out… it turns out the argument is -P for port.

I wasted several thousand dollars of company time with a casing issue 🥴

Lol

Downvoted for having an opinion. Rip in peace

Nah it was a pretty immature company at the time, just told not to do shit like that anymore.

Once we ipo’d and put on big boy pants, that would have been at least a reprimand.

It’s pretty great if you land the right job. Amazon or meta? Fuck all that. But via my network I found a nice startup (after being at two big fintech companies) that pays me crazy San Francisco bucks while I live in Ohio.

And yeah, I’m very privileged and I’m well aware of it. Especially for a college drop out who majored in English….

Since I’m so privileged I make sure I do what I can to help others though, lots of donations to orgs and I do some volunteering to hand out food to the needy on weekend. It’s to help with the cognitive dissonance and the feeling like “I don’t deserve this”

I get paid well! And at the point I’d left the job we’d gotten everything stable so that the incidents dropped off and weren’t as impactful.

Tech is weird compared to other industries, in that actual mistakes that cause outages aren’t really punished… unless it’s something egregious or you didn’t follow rules like “don’t cowboy stuff in prod, use peer reviewed plans”. It’s generally “blameless” in the postmortems, you take what you learned from it and add to the procedures to make sure that exact issue doesn’t happen again.

In fintech and at scale, you aren’t far off!

I eventually got the damn thing removed at least.

Someone installed this across our 2500 machine entire fleet back in 2013. I wanted to fucking punch him in the dick, especially during incidents where every second matters.

Ten minutes of profit. They’re in real trouble now.

I’m sure they will do licenses detection.

I work in IDV and we have tons of ways to determine if a picture is fake.

Edit: oh lol, it’s not even that advanced. Using my searches (I don’t use google ever) and my YouTube history is gonna turn up some real interesting results.

Hm. I’m not sure.

I know they expose rtsp or rstp or whatever protocol, so maybe you could wire something up to record off the stream.
