Cisco is overpriced & insecure junk.

@Linux go run the tests yourself. They aren't even in the same ball park.

@kenogo lol you are kidding right ? Have you seen the memory footprint of Apache?

There's a very good and valid reason why out of the box nginx can handle tens of thousands of requests per second and Apache can handle a few hundred at best.

Go look at some performance comparisons, they are not even in the same ball park

Why would I waste my already limited time on watching a grown man act like a little child being ridiculous.

PewDiePie = Reality TV Garbage of the internet.

Take one step back.

Skype sucks.

At least all the bloatware on a Samsung that destroys the Android experience makes the phone too heavy for a theif to just pick it up and walk away with it.

Too late.

You must assimilate.

@Stuxnet Argh, how did I forget one of the most important alternatives.

Cocaine!

"Made from all natural cocoa products"

Just give up now. There is no hope.

There are plenty of healthy alternatives to coffee like Ritalin, Adderall, dexamphetamine, crystal meth, etc

@Grouter My God. What has this world come too.

I'm just going to go sit in the corner and cry now

I've got this weird OCD thing where I can't let any stickers on the laptop overlap at all. Makes life hard. Has turned the action of putting stickers on my laptop into a game of sticker Tetris.

Pix or it didn't happen

"Sure dog you’re probably right on that one but we are in a professional environment and at this point, you are holding up production so you can wave your dick around!"

Standards and Conventions exist in order to make things work in an expected reproducable way where anyone else who works on it knows exactly what to expect.

Its not nothing to do with being in a professional environment, its a dick move to ignore the standard, do your own thing and then complain that you just want to push to production and be done with it. Makes everyone elses life harder because you wanted to do it your own way.

Even though I've been in the industry for 15 years now I usually try to convince people who I don't know that I know nothing about computers.

Or if they find out I'll say I 'work on backend systems all say, you know those ones that are just text. I know nothing about desktops / consumer computers.'

Did you want to grab lunch today ?

Try to talk a bit about python

You must be looking at our databases.

I'm pretty sure our DBA doesn't even know what a database is

Wow

Ok

So what you are saying is that with your 4 years of experience you are a expert / the best in the field ?

Sigh. In 15 years you'll understand

Smart woman. The IT industry is the worst curse you could wish upon someone

@BugsBuggy most of ours completely refuse to let anyone look or work on their code because they get too upset if someone tells them there might be another way to do something

Someone tried to help one of the developers out and gave him the fix to a bug that he could not fix , the person who tried to help didn't get spoken too for 6 months because the guy trying to help was "trying to be better than him and make him look bad "

I only stay because I scored my own private office and get to watch the shit show unfold every day through my window. It's as addictive as bindge watching on Netflix.

I would fire him if I could but their boss has an amazing track record for encouraging this kind of crap.

Both of them need to be let go actually.

This is the same boss who

- Gave a bunch of developers and external contractors the root credentials for our AWS account with all our production infrastructure 'because it was just easier'

- Told a developer to do something to a RDS instance in AWS and ended up destroying our primary DB replica

Then when raised with him you get told 'he just has initiative and wants to learn'

To which I asked how and in what universe it's appropriate to learn on production infrastructure.

He calls it 'baptism by fire'

I call it 'you are a utter fucking moron who encourages worst practice and has no thought for the people who need to clean up the mess that has been created.'

This is the same guy who is convinced that VGA is superior in every way when compared to HDMI and that digital video is a inferior technology

There is no hope

Living on the edge there my friend
