I would say grep, sed, awk and the like.

It’s half a terabyte and I’ve found all sorts of shit in there, but I doubt I’ll ever get it organized. I mocks me in defiance.

The thought of this terrifies me. I should do it.

DJ Shadow - Endtroducing

I have listened to this album more times than anything else I own. I’m on my third copy of it after wearing out the original pressing I have from the 90’s and the repressing from 10 years ago. I know every sample, every soundscape, and it almost brings me to tears every time I drop the needle on it. So many memories of good times where this was the soundtrack. So many friends, now gone, walk next to me again when that album plays.

I miss you, Isaac.

Another take, I am super on it with gun safety, but not storage. There are never minors allowed in my home, and a gun isn’t useful unless you can get to it easily and it’s ready to go. Only guns resting inside the safe are unloaded, all the guns that work for a living have loaded magazines and a round in the chamber (I don’t own any 1911 pattern guns, if I did, they would not be chambered.) Also, no exposed trigger, everything is in a holster.

Not really. It can all be faked. Virtual Directory Servers are a thing. Live javascript transformation of data from a non MS LDAP server, functioning as AD. Just match up the schema, and go. You get real multi master replication (no idea if MS has this now, but they didn’t at the time) and an actually performant server. Plus all the logs just pipe over to your syslog server so you don’t have to rdp into a server and look at event viewer. It can all be done from the shell on the jump server you use to manage everything else.

AD is just LDAP with extra steps.

Am over 30, sign me up.

Bo Burnham sounds like a fucking idiot. Despite his size, Goliath was defeated by a well placed projectile.

Lilygo uses old stock bb keyboards, I think. Looks exactly like the one an employer had me carry.

Every time I try to slow down my car, I hear chopped up and recontextualized Amens…

I’m delusional, then. Spotify hasn’t paid me a red cent, but piracy has indirectly put money in my pocket and food on my table.

Sometimes it does. Piracy drives up sales of traditional media (think: vinyl), as well as increasing crowd size at live performances. Also, merch sales scale with awareness of an artist. All of these things equal the payout of millions of plays on spoffy.

I did not know this.

The Salesperson is incredibly important. They take the person responsible for making the purchase decision out to lunch and for rounds of golf, after all!

I cannot count the number of times I was able to fire off an email with a status update to the PM “JIRA is down, again, I completed XYZ, update your gantt charts, my part is done.” I know that they paid a whole team of folks to craft the interrelations of those tasks for a system that hardly ever worked.

Allow me to regale you with a tale of Sun Identity Manager and XPRESS. A strange mangling of xml and pseudo javascript-esque pile of shit used for identity transformations for disparate systems.

On second thought, let’s just not. I’d rather let that PTSD inducing memory slowly fade away, much like SunIDM did after Larry bought them to poach their customer base.
