In a meeting, we made some pretty major adjustments to a dev server. We broke it. Under pressure, I cracked and I randomly forgot the syntax for a sql update statement that might’ve at least got it back semi-online. To be fair, it’s been several years since I’ve needed any sql. Thank goodness I grabbed a snapshot as soon as I realized things were about to get edited. Saved. 😁

    Yes. I love snapshots.

    It’s a dev server so if it’s broken for a little while, no one really cares. Someone will bandage it and get it ready for its next break. But that ended up being a nice little experience in quick recovery. I’ve only been here 3 months.
