I'd love to have pets in the office, but if I touch something a dog has recently touched and then touch my face my eyes will be dried out and I'll be sneezing all day.

I know that the tipping point hasn’t fully happened yet but make sure y’all are positioning yourself appropriately for any sort of recession that may or may not hit in the next year or so. Get your financial and mental health in a good place.

So is the appropriate course of action to move to a higher paying job while the economy is still hot or burrow into the low paying cushy job you can't get fired from?

There is no right answer. You are rolling the dice either way. Just live your life and use this as an excuse to not make risky purchases.

This should be a good reminder to everyone to always have like 6 months to a year of expenses saved up. Even if you gotta eat ramen now to make it happen, it's easier to stock up during the good times than try to work out how to survive in the bad.

hmmmmmmm hey bossman what does it mean when you've had to cancel three daily stand-ups because everyone's too fuckin' busy to come to the daily stand-ups and the board is stale because everyone's too busy doing actual work with our existing ticket system and work order system to play cards? does it mean that the whole agile/kanban for admin/security/tech channels thing isn't working out because i think it means that tune in at 11 for a detailed report

Out of curiosity, what do your standups look like? 15 minutes long with each person quickly going through what they finished, what they're working on and where they're stuck?

Half an hour long while the boss asks rhetorical questions into dead air on a Teams meeting and everyone busies themselves doing actual work since it's a "stand-up" meeting across seven office buildings in five countries and four timezones worldwide. Again, I'm not against Agile or Kanban. This, though? This is something that LOOKS like Agile/Kanban but is really just make-work in a situation where there's already too much work.

Have a candid conversation. Voice your concerns, suggest changes, do some research on scrum best practices and present the change to him. It can be really hard to change to an Agile mindset and a lot of people struggle with it.

So, for the future or other people, one thing that actually saves time is to have everyone spend the first five minutes silently writing down their answers to the questions: What did I do yesterday? What am I working on today? Where am I stuck? Then go around the table and have everyone read what they wrote.

My boss never ever ever asks me what I'm working on. He asks if I need help with anything and if the answer is no, he moves on.

Okay well, the whole point of a standup is to do that. It's a different way of looking at your work, so the whole team knows what is happening that day and if anyone else has a blocker they can help with. It's not for your boss, in fact true Agile is a flat structure and you won't have a boss there. e:fb

My old boss also sucked at running "standups". They'd go on for at least 30 minutes, often longer unless someone needed to kick us out of the conference room. Someone would inevitably have some topic they wanted to really dive into and he's just let them go at it. Three times a week  Which is... not the purpose of a standup. I'm glad he moved on for a variety of reasons, but that's certainly one of them. I try to keep mine to 10 minutes tops for a team of 4. What're you working on, any issues in your way (but NOT HOW TO SOLVE THEM RIGHT NOW), any general announcements for the team. Done. If you need to deep dive on some topic, schedule your own drat meeting or hash it out on Slack. Don't drag everyone else down the rabbit hole with you.

Our CISO is running around with his hair on fire about a new Microsoft remote desktop vulnerability. Nevermind that we don't have externally exposed jump boxes so this doesn't even apply to us, he wants to know how exposed we are. Um, considering this patch came out 3 days ago my guy, why don't you hazard a guess? SELECT * FROM Servers as S WHERE S.OS = 'Windows'; Might be your answer.

NLA is a fairly effective mitigation, from what I have read, as it requires an attacker to have actual RDP valid credentials to do anything. Not 100%, but if they can already login to the box, you might have other issues.

With the constant scanning of public IPs going on you don’t even need to be an interesting target. I’ve worked someplace that got owned by some dumbass committing AWS keys to GitHub and someplace that got owned by random zero days in services that by their nature have to be open and public facing. In both cases it was just assholes looking for ways to mine buttcoins, nothing more targeted or elaborate. Someone is going to get into your poo poo eventually, but hopefully you’ve done the work to limit the scope and severity of what they can do. Anyone worth half a poo poo at infosec should never hurt for work.

Some estimating dickweasel is here picking up equipment and he's spent the entire morning bitching about not being able to change his desktop background. Right now, he's going through ringtones on his new phone at full volume. There's going to be another body in the lime quarry soon, I tell you what.

I have upgraded myself to a Surface Laptop at work cause one of the Executives returned it; didn't like it. Well it's not an officially supported device so I can't deploy it elsewhere so I deployed it to myself. I like it so far.
