Maybe we haven’t talked in years, and we just follow each other in the socials just by inertia.
But if I see you post a pic of you enjoying your family, your kids, or yourself, I’m gonna upvote/like that stuff. I always celebrate somebody winning in life.

I wonder if doctors get tackled by over-confident idiots like: "well yeah, ChatGTP told me how to do a prostatectomy, why I should hear you? Your career is doomed!"
Or it's just us, IT people, because of copilot and stuff.

it's kinda weird that all the software i am expected to use for work are all written by distributed teams, go, python, postgres, linux, chrome, k8s etc

Azure DevOps (Azure DevOps [ADO] != Azure Cloud) is so bad it makes me miss Jenkins and ServiceNow.

"We need to improve the deployment pipelines"
- Ok, improve how? What's failing?
"Well, the integrated tests are taking too long"
- Ok, that's QE, the tests jobs are only invoked in the main pipeline.
"You can parallel invoke them"
- Parallel invoke...tests? 🤔
"..mmh, let's brainstorm this"

A subtle difference between Sr and non-Sr engineers I've seen:
"Project requires traveling on site"
Non-Sr: "of course!".
Sr: "Nope, nuh-uh, pass. No by-the-airport hotel with a chilli's dinner after a 10hr/day work week, no".

My family had been planning a NY trip for some years, my kids love the 'night at the museum' franchise, and they wanted to see that museum.
Had a word with the kids yesterday, it's not the best of times to go (legally & as a tourist) to the US, they were impressively aware of this and they agree.

You have heard of soccer moms, or baseball dads, and read or seen some horrible stories. Well, have you seen the "martial arts" parent? They are a new subspecies of beast, and the worst part of a sport that tries to teach modesty and restrain to kids.

Ok, this is my first project using azure devops. So far I’m loving it, it’s what Jira, Bitbucket and Confluence should have been.

A book so long I had run through a power cycle on my Kindle. That Oppenheimer novel surely runs a very detail account of the communist fear agenda of the 40s-50s. Also, things that do a very loud ka-boom.

New year's (kind of) proposal:
To listen, at least once a week, one full Metal album from this millennium.
* No nu metal.
* No song skip, not a single one.
* No slipknot, I don't like it. Never will.
* Classic bands are OK, but it has to be 2000s onward.
Let's start with Toxic Holocaust.
