Chaotic Entropy

This is definitely food for thought. Junk food, but technically food.

Time to repurpose all of my random mixed capacity HDDs in a bag somewhere, I guess.

Are they more spinny than they are weird? Or weirder than they are spinny?

“I never said which hour.”

It’s quite similar.

I barely know how to code, but I think I could write a lot of lines of code too. They would be incredibly inefficient and poorly written though.

Imagine if you asked your dev to explain their code and their response was “dunno mate, I di’n’t write it”.

Does their app need to be 250k lines? Who knows… definitely not them.

Early 20s, from his LinkedIn, teen-turned-CEO.

Lauri is a recent teenager-turned-CEO himself… and that “intern” is basically responsible for building Lauri’s entire codebase. The whole service his “company” offers is what that teen bodged together in a month.

One of a bajillion bugs.

Re-brand to “Tailsale” when?

Wherever you put it?

Every 6 months half of it gets removed, to use as fertiliser, and it is refilled with tap water and some feed.

It sounded cool a couple of years ago, but it was first installed in 2021 and I’m yet to hear of it really going anywhere.

It’s going to be a fun historical period to look back on when there are just huge gaps where IP/product control became so powerful that no record of certain things were allowed to exist.

It’s the thing you only tell your “ride-or-die bitch” server.

The notifications in one of our systems is aligned with UTC because it needs to be for a whole bunch of background services to function. Periodically (every couple of years) someone raises a ticket to complain that the time of their notifications is an hour out, and the 2nd line support worker will think “well that’s easy, I’ll just change the server time to BST”. This then brings this whole suite of applications to a crashing halt as everything fails.

Peer reviewing your apologies is always important.

Loving it, I’ve been looking for a more customisable keyboard.
