I'm burnt out and it's almost 'gently caress-this-poo poo-o-clock' I decided to see what happens when 2 phones try to play tug-o-war with a thumb drive:   any takers?

You're using HTC phones, so they'll erupt in a spontaneous garbage fire and cause you to go bankrupt

You'll bridge the filesystems and gain full access between phones, including battery charge sharing! (real answer one phone will mount the usb drive first and the other phone will be denied access, so it will sit doing nothing) CLAM DOWN posted:You're using HTC phones, so they'll erupt in a spontaneous garbage fire and cause you to go bankrupt The Samsung bridge has a "no garbage" icon so it won't communicate with the HTC phone.

So it looks like the one plugged into the native micro usb won, when I turned them on. But they are both trying to charge each other when turned off, so it looks like everybody wins. I wonder how long until the batteries poo poo themselves from playing tug-o-war through a usb stick.

I'm guessing the USB devices will burn out before anything happens to the batteries. There's no way the USB stick was designed to handle energy flowing through it.

Do I just need to pick and choose what skills and experience are the most important? Also, should I put in non-technical stuff like "helped regional company grow into national retail chain" or should I save that for Linkedin? 22 Eargesplitten fucked around with this message at 22:44 on Aug 26, 2016 |

I do a technical summary on top that lays out everything I'm good with, then expand on how I supported the business/drove results in the bullet points. The technical summary is literally bullet points like 'Windows Server Administration'. No more than three words per bullet in four-five columns to save space.

Can anyone back up that multiple columns of bullet points idea? It sounds really good. I've been bitching about my job, and while I'm not actively looking yet, I figure with how many recruiter emails I get, I should probably put an updated resume out there in hopes of one of them being good rather than short term help desk or field technician postings in Ohio. 2.5 months is too long and short of a timeframe for a job to look good on the resume, right? I do have two resumes, one for programming and one for operations.

For a while now I've had my resume chopped off at 2000, but 16 years is seeming like too much to have on there. I also redid each position and got away from lists of responsibilities and products. Now each job starts with a little story about my time and challenges/projects and if appropriate follows with a brief responsibilities/products summary. For a long time manager type I think it makes more sense then showing how much time I've spent working on old stuff like Server 2008.

Is there a colloquial term for an AD stack of AD, group policy, file sharing and exchange? It takes up a lot of resume space to list each individually when they're all usually related.

I've been in IT since 2014, so I'm only going to have three jobs on there once I add this one. Which is a lot for barely more than 2 years, but contracts suck and so do companies that make you work every other weekend while also going full time M-F. I'm definitely including a bit about how I taught myself powershell in order to reduce the time to do a common task by 90%. That shows me taking initiative, an aptitude for scripting, gives a definite number, and it's a big number. I can't wait until I can land a developer gig, scripting is the best part of my job, aside from the occasional catered lunches.

"The Microsoft Stack" although I would assume anyone saying they do Windows admin work to at least know AD, GP, Filesharing, DNS, DHCP, and how to set up a print server. Exchange is kind of a different animal though. I know I haven't even worked with any on prem deployments for about 7 years until recently. Would definitely classify it separately cause it's not a requirement

I just tried the the same thing with my old Nexus 5 and my Nexus 6p. The 6p was the only one that accessed the drive, while also charging the N5. It also kept trying to mount the N5 as storage, but kept failing.

The last time I blindly ran a script from a vendor I spent the next 12 hours un-loving a database that I started the night knowing nothing about. We had just taken over IT work for this customer and hadn't had a chance to verify backups were sane yet. Hint: They weren't. Managed to get them back online by 6:30 AM with the only loss being x-rays taken the previous afternoon.

I've been on vacation in cancun all week and have been watching the poo poo pile on from afar for when I get back. It's amazing how many onsite meetings in Manhattan I've been scheduled for and not a single coordinator looked at my existing calender to see I'm now quadruple booked. I just texted my boss to let him know and all I got was a whoops. Next week's gonna suck. On the plus side, the wifi is pretty good here.

OWLS! posted:Dammit, I completely forgot this was happening, and it's too to get my boss to pay for me to go. DevOps Days Boston trip report: I'd give it a solid B, which includes the fact that it's absurdly cheap (early bird tickets were like $200). If you're coming into it from a very traditional, old school IT environment, it would probably be very eye opening and valuable. As for me, I drank the DevOps kool aid a long time ago so it was mostly old hat. The talks were kinda blah. They were well done, but it was a lot of very DevOps 101 stuff that I've known and have tried to put into practice for years. Empathize and work with devs and the business units you're trying to make money for. Collaborate. Break down barriers. Automate everything. Monitor everything. Don't create a racist/sexist/homophobic/xenophobic work environment. These are all very very important topics, and I'm glad they are being discussed. I did come away with a few things I want to dive deeper into. But overall it was a lot of head nodding for me. Which I guess is still valuable in a way, because hearing people discuss industry best practices and thinking "yeah, my company mostly does that" is reassuring. As usual with DevOps Days events, the open spaces were the highlight. If you've never been to one, the audience proposes and votes on topics. Then after lunch, everyone breaks out into small groups to discuss the most popular subjects, attending and moving between whichever sessions interest them. These are almost invariably awesome, as you just have 5-30 people very interested in a given topic discussing their questions and real-world solutions in a small room. I got some great pointers on testing your config management code, storing and distributing secrets like passwords and private keys, and optimizing your ELK stack, as some examples. You'll end up shooting the poo poo with a lead engineer or manager from like Twitter or GitHub or Etsy or Google, as well as random brilliant people from your local community, and it's totally worth the price of admission. The "hallway track" talking to people about whatever, and after hours So yeah, if you're local, I'd say it's worth attending. Ridiculously cheap for a professional conference, it's only 2 days, and you'll get lots of face time with very smart people tackling the same problems you are. I might try to get on the organizing committee next year because I have ~feelings~ about how it could be improved (mainly making it more like DevOps Days Rockies, which was one of the greatest events I've ever attended). If you aren't local, attend the closest DevOps Days event to where you live. They pop up all the time. Docjowles fucked around with this message at 01:42 on Aug 28, 2016 |

Make a start with https://mva.microsoft.com/en-US/training-courses/understanding-active-directory-8233?l=aErw3QJy_6904984382 CALs are required for each user or device accessing resources on a Windows server. The most common choice is to go with user CALs unless you're running a workplace with shift workers, and if you have 100 staff then you need 100 CALs.
