Man I would get offers twice a week even after switching jobs when I had data engineer as my job title, took them like a year and a half to stop sending me offers for data positions

Make sure your profile matches their lazy ass search queries

Aren’t user agents just a plain text header? Couldn’t a malicious agent just spoof a legitimate one?

The trick is to try and think what could those words correspond to in assembly

What is the simbol supposed to be originally?

But they promised we could save a ton of money with their monitoring dashboards we won’t look at until suddenly we get a bill that is 5x what they promised!

Visa has a hard limit of 8 and requires the first 4 to be numbers because the phone tree might require it as a password

The whole banking industry is ridiculous and is ridiculously legislated

Lazy load exception anyone?

Aren’t captchas used to better train AIs to be able to recognize stuff?

I discovered basic versions of windows are even more restrictive when I was unable to install my favorite lightweight pdf reader in a friend’s laptop because Windows home just said that for my safety I wasn’t allowed. With no option to bypass this limitation being hinted at.

Ended up installing it anyways but had to run the installer from an admin terminal (luckily it was windows 7 so it was a local account with admin rights instead of a bullshit Microsoft one)

What you’re proposing is literally time zones but without shifting the actual clock, you still end up with all the issues and you remove the link between the hour of day and the sun’s position for people lol

Plus who gets to decide that everyone switches over and what is the new global time?

“oh nice we’re also having issues with random packets being dropped, can you look into that? It’s business critical”

How much weight did you put on

That last part, that’s what sandboxie is for

Wait until you try to do something that involves managing child processes

I’m not sure if you’re serious or not.

At my job they unilaterally decided that we no longer had access to our application logs in any way other than a single company wide grafana with no access control (which means anyone can see anything and seeing the stats and logs of only your stuff is a PITA).

Half the time the relevant log línes straight up don’t show up unless you use a explicit search for their content (good luck finding relevant information for an unknown error) and you’re extremely limited in how many log línes you can see at once.

Not to mention that none of our applications were designed with this platform in mind so all the logging is done in a legacy way that conforms to the idea of just grepping a log file and there’s no way the sponsors will commit to letting us spend weeks adjusting our legacy applications to actually log in a way that is useful for viewing in grafana and not a complete shitshow.

I’ve worked with a logstash/elastic/kibana stack for years before this job and I can tell you these solutions aren’t meant for seeing lines one by one or context searches (where seeing what happened right before and after matters a lot), they’re meant for aggregations and analysis.

It’s like moving all your stuff from one house to another in a tiny electric car. Sure technically it can be done but that’s not it’s purpose at all and good luck moving your fridge.

What a nice world you must live in where all your code is perfectly clean, documented and properly tracked.

CFO gets a massive bonus

The base version of IntelliJ is FOSS, and they kinda offer perpetual licenses for their paid applications. If you subscribe for an entire year, you get a perpetual fallback license. It’s just a license for an older version of the software, but you get to keep it forever. https://sales.jetbrains.com/hc/en-gb/articles/207240845-What-is-a-perpetual-fallback-license

You know that any software that requires a login or can update on its own can be bricked at a moment’s notice if someone in legal or accounting changes their mind about the whole “perpetual” thing.

What you didn’t put googling as one of your skills in linked in?
