This would be a GREAT time to post some links to videos about it on Peertube.

no one ever discloses, they just wait to get caught, then make a new extension and restart the cycle.

i’ve been feeding my dog chicken thighs after her last hungerstrike. She recognizes the difference in between my knifework on sausage/veggies and chicken.

My cats tell me when it’s dinner time, not the other way around :)

This is about instagram/facebook/ticktok demonitizing for sex/drugs/violence/harm because advertisers won’t put their money behind that for fear of a religious call to cancel.

Sadly, we’re just getting thriftstore memes.

We won’t boycott them.

All it would take is a good boycott.

Breaking: Lightning flashes, thunderous boom. Jesus Christ appears upon a obelisk in the center of the reflecting pool in DC.

And I say unto you: FUCKING HELL, CAN YOU ALL JUST STOP RUINING THE WORLD AND EACHOTHER, JUST FUCKING STOP IT WITH THE MONEY AND FUCKING OVER THE POOR. EVERYONE DESERVES FOOD AND COMFORT AND STOP TRYING TO SPEND ALL THE NATURAL RESOURCES ON GET RICH QUICK AI BULLSHIT, I CAN’T BELIEVE I HAD TO COME DOWN HERE TO STOP YOU ASSHOLES.

Hey, I have a question, you have time for a quick huddle?

Almost never does anyone say no.

My dad split the difference and built me a “treehouse” on 4 4x4 posts, about 6 ft in the air.

I went in it maybe a couple dozen times over the years.

They’re a lot more exciting in the brochure :)

My best friend’s father ( long before we met) said they could build a tree house if they didn’t put nails in the tree, so they stole materials from building sites and built the entire thing captive, nailed to itself, wrapped in and out of the branches. They also used it a scant number of times.

I mean, he just turned his Ram logo upside down…

That’s actually the key, this was posted in a NJ hotel. (it’s old Reddit but i was there when the bombs dropped)

They’re worried about locals renting a room to defile trying to keep stuff out of their house.

For us, we use slack huddles when there will be too much back and forth. 30 second audio call, supports screen sharing.

The best part, is it was a New Jerseyan that made it.

Trying to keep people from renting local hotel rooms for nefarious or dirty things.

The true strange part is why this was in Kentucky

A complicated system design with multiple loosely related systems dynamically handing off work to each other with a race condition, REALLY doesn’t fit the single point of failure concept.

It’s probably just another clone of this clone of a clone of a …

The immediate interruption is good for management, but bad for the company overall.

That’s why we still have Jira/email.

Critical importance: slack/in person

Can wait but important: high importance email, P1 Jira

Not important: Low impotance email, P2 Jira

Getting answers for questions have turned from 5 minute thing to 10-40 minute things.

That’s an administration problem. Sure people are busy, in meetings or at lunch. But if someone is always 40m away from answering a work slack/chat they’re a candidate for replacement.

oddly, the link goes to the right article, then the site redirects to the swimming article,

here it is on another site

edit: it’s someone elses take, looking for original

edit2: OK, the original article is from 2020, there are updartes in 2024.

This page does a better job covering the the couple of gallup polls and some of the criteria listed

though the site is sus to me :)

It works better for some people/orgs than others. My company worked in a Google Meet for 6 hours yesterday in a war room, cracking jokes, socializing, with most cameras off, mostly just voice chat and the occasional screen share. We got the job done, we had fun, and people came and went. The cool part was that we had different disciplines together that wouldn’t sit together. Shit, we had people in 4 different time zones, not even all on the same continent.

Now it’s the next day… do I want to do it again today? No. I’m an introvert and I’m all out of spoons. But the next thing? sure!

AND I saved 1.5 hours of commute and 60 miles of gas/tires/oil

DevOps here too, I’ve been starting to slide my smaller redundant services into k8s. I had to really defend my position not to use ECS.

No, we’re using kubeadm because I don’t want to give a damn if it’s running in the office, or google or amazon or my house. It’s WAY harder and more expensive than setting up an eks and a EC/Aurora cluster, but I can bypass vendor lock in. Setting up my own clusters and replicas is a never ending source of work.
