VMware are not good with numbers.

After 3 weeks of leave I come back to a priority ticket that only says "Please get Docker operational". No further details. I want to flee back to the mountains.

Documentation is wild, companies will just straight up tell you they're doing weird shit.

Technical datasheets should not have marketing BS like this. Poor form @meraki.

Here's what you can expect if you try to get anything useful done on the @Cisco website. It takes longer to license a device than to configure it. Also, what the hell is my "System Administrator" going to do about their website being a dumpster fire?

Day 3 of Cisco Smart Licensing Purgatory. And again with the "Contact your system administrator because our website is broken" business.

I just used ChatGPT to create a regular expression and it worked first go. This is both scary and exciting 🫢

The DW Youtube channel has amazing documentaries. Here's one about postal delivery in remote Siberia. The postman travels 150km, mostly on horseback and foot on a 5 day journey through several villages that aren't accessible by road. inv.warpnine.de/5IKzIw2UxVI

Every time I look at pics of Chicago I'm blown away by the massive size of Lake Michigan. Having grown up in an area with a lot of small lakes the Great Lakes just don't conform with my perception of a "lake". Visiting Chicago is definitely a bucket list item.

As I'm on lake binge, the largest freshwater lake in the world by volume and depth is Lake Baikal in Siberia. Would also love to visit but that one is probably going to be a challenge.
Having to use Cisco's website is a sign that I died and went to hell. Can't add support contract as the profile needs an address. I add an address, no errors. View profile, address is empty. Try 3 browsers, same result. Log a ticket, get a response asking me to add an address.

JavaScript development on Windows can be descried as "If you can't handle me at my worst you don't deserve me at my best". NPM/NPX is an endless source of cryptic errors, but once it's working development is really fast.

I just spent more time dealing with npm than spinning up a new project, connecting it to MSSQL and writing an API endpoint to test SQL connectivity.
Remember Martin Shkreli? Turns out he's out of prison and has started a Web3 "Drug Discovery Platform" called Druglike with his own Crypto token ($MSI). Seems to be like Folding@home but with crypto... - druglike.com/Druglike_Press_… - msi.wtf/ - coinmarketcap.com/currencies…

And it already seems to have landed him in a bit of hot water. arstechnica.com/science/2023…

Shkreli tells judge his drug discovery software is not for discovering drugs

Shkreli now says his drug discovery software is like a recipe website.

Ok last one... 🤣 I have no idea if ISIS have network infrastructure, but if they do, ChatGPT will help even if TAC won't.
