As a highly available developer, I ensure I keep everything at a n+2 redundancy. For example, we normally expect a steady rate of 0 mistakes, but I ensure that I am always making at least 2 mistakes at at time for proper redundancy.

In response to the sheer amount of image data on web pages, I'm adding "this image could have been a vector" next to "this meeting could have been an email" on the wall of stock lines.

Remember to give your Discord guilds appropriate enrichment based on their interests. For example, some discords may find having a spreadsheet they can fill out and keep up-to-date an excellent communal bonding activity.

The SVG version of my avatar image less than 4kB (including white-space and comments). With gzip it compresses to 1,164 bytes, leaving 336 bytes of space for TCP and HTTP headers in a single Ethernet frame. I miss designing things (professionally) that way...

I am committing to achieving net-zero self-sabotage by 2050. This will be mitigated by having Doom Scrolling offset by the use of a credit system; actual doom scrolling will not be reduced at this time.

Cursed #kubernetes idea: a ManualReviewScheduler that, wherever a new Pod resource is created, raises a service ticket back at corporate asking which node it should be assigned to. Each pod becomes a line item in a change management meeting.

Based on conversation elsewhere, I have realised this will require a ChangeManagementMeetingAutoscaler component which if the backlog of unscheduled pods grow will add more people to the change management meetings in order to make decisions faster.

computers are a completely normal field where there are databases built on descendants of PICK OS, a database made in the 60s to organize parts for a helicopter that never existed, for a system called Generalized Information Retrieval Language System (GIRLS), as created by a guy named Dick Pick.

hewwo world :3 Fun fact: signing up takes a bunch longer if you decide to run a PDS and then flip your handle. I could have just "signed up" but no, first I had a pressing desire to rebuild a docker image as a debian package...

You are up to date.
