  • You need to create a list of incidents that reached customers. Create a matrix that has the incident ID, the link to the incident documentation and the type of test that would have caught the incident.

    Then they'll see that their incidents would have been caught by the tests you want to. push instead of an angry customer.

  • — When the Indian Amazon support guy sees you're a junior on your first week and tells you to execute a script to install a software for a video call with him. And you do, but it needs sudo access, so you give it...

    — You have sudo power here

    Sadly, true story. I never told anyone. My neurons clicked a day after that and I removed everything from the computer. It was too late, they hacked some things but IT just laughed and recovered some backups. They never knew I was the virus all along.

    Good times.

  • I left Lemmy for like 6 months because I got tired of the echo chamber. I'm usually inclined to the left but this was just too much and too extreme. There were some pretty interesting topics that I learned here, like how badly designed society is and why cars are an artificial need. Those "intellectual" discussions (if you could call them that) kept me engaged, but even those spaces were ruined by people totally closed to the idea of a middle-ground.

  • Remember everyone in the world uses the internet. Some people are in the process of learning English, and they are just starting to interact with it. I'm not a native and it was pretty hurtful when people mocked my best attempts to communicate in their language. Give him a break. I know you're joking, this is for other people planning to say something mean.

  • Trying to do a basic Docker image during an interview was wild.

    I was writing shit like "chmod user:user 400 file"

    Somehow the person didn't notice and said everything looked fine. When the interview was over, I looked at it and every single command was shit.

  • I was just forced to Switch to Mac and let me tell you that I'm actually enjoying it.

    Things I like so far:

    • An actual modern email client that isn't web based. Web mail clients feel so cumbersome.
    • Same thing for a calendar application.
    • Nice reminders app out of the box. Can schedule alarms on reminders and categorize them.
    • Nice notes app that I don't need to constantly save. It never closes, which feels great compared to Gedit.
    • Security. Apps notify me when they want to access system resources and I have to authorize them.
    • Unix. Unix matters a lot.
    • Homebrew has incredible support. I can install almost anything with it.
    • Iterm2 feels almost like Terminator.

    Things I hate:

    • The fact that they have another keyboard layout. Although, after 3 days I'm getting used.
    • Updates take forever, it's insane.
    • Can't easily switch back and forth (not cycle) between windows of same apps. Haven't figured this one out.
    • Docker runs in a VM, it sucks.
    • Can't get used to multiple desktops. I hate them.

    Honestly, it isn't as bad as Windows. As long as I have a terminal and a nice shell, I'm good.
