If your service needs to operate 24/7, then it needs to be staffed 24/7. If it doesn’t need to operate 24/7, then staff will resolve the issue during normal work hours. Most businesses have IT teams stagger their start time so that someone comes in early and can deal with issues that may have risen the night before and prior to other employees arriving.

He moved the headquarters of Chipotle to his home town from Denver just for the hell of it. My guess is that he intends to do the same with Starbucks. So that “commute” will last only as long as it takes him to move the corporate HQ.

Nixon!

This whole raw milk thing is truly breaking my remaining faith in humanity. Like I saw how we responded to COVID and everything we’ve done across the past hundred plus years in destroying environments, greed, and selfishness but for some reason this raw milk saga is kinda like the straw that broke the camels back. Just intentionally trying to work against the whole species.

That is true but at the same time, a line has to be drawn somewhere. If we just let Russia win because they have nukes, there is nothing to stop them from invading and absorbing other neighbors. We can’t let the threat of nukes keep us from doing anything and allowing for Russia and China to just invade anywhere they want.

I think it was a 1998-ish Pontiac Grand Prix. I dated two different women that drove that car and so I had to ride around in them and sometimes drive them. Both were just a train wreck of problems. They shook violently sitting at a red light, the brakes always seemed to be failing, and everything that could break was falling off the cars. It’s weird that two women I dated owned the same car but more so that they both had the same problems.

I’ve used a duress password with crypto containers since the old TrueCrypt introduced me to it a while back. Sure you can have the password and unlock the vault but it’s just text file notes in there that aren’t at all important. In reality though, no one would ever give a shit about my data enough to even ask me my password.

I was RedHat 3 back in 1996. Not even sure how we got the CD but we all passed it around and were amazed.

Going to be sad to see it go. I know the series wasn’t universally loved but I really did enjoy it. Looking forward to April 4th!

Golang to the rescue!

Damn that’s a good idea. Going to write that down, put it in the to do list, and regret not dosing it.

Wish I had an answer. Had an older relative that was like this. Others say he was always like that and he died miserable. Never did figure out what drove him to be that way and many people tried and failed to befriend him and get to know him. No one succeeded including his neighbor who was the nicest person I ever met.

Yeah I can’t imagine there is any shortage in the US with skill not to mention that AZ is a home to Intel manufacturing so there are trained people. My guess is that they want skilled people to work for far less than they are worth. Pay the right price and there won’t be a shortage.

And as always I’ll have to wait until the BackBlaze HD reviews to find out if they actually work. Joking aside this is amazing.

Thanks so much I had not been tracking this case but it pissed me off to no end when I heard that Vizio was refusing to uphold the GPL. They are more than happy to greatly benefit from the labors of open source development but the second they have to do the smallest step in support of the GPL, they fight it. I doubt there is anything overly interesting that they could release. My mind is assuming they don’t want anyone to see the actual level of their data gathering.

If we close out all nine challenges do we just respawn or does it unlock a new map?

Same here. I’m pasting my password here and it will encrypt it so no one can see it other than me: *******

“The researchers said the findings are alarming because they may reflect bottom-line incentives overshadowing patient care and safety.” Folks, that is the entire goal of the acquisition, to drive financial performance, not patient outcomes. What did they possibly expect would happen? That is the entire goal! This shit really needs to get sorted. Financial goals should never be the top priority in any healthcare provider setting.

I mean there are already four of them on the car how many do we really need?
