Arquinsiel posted:Nah, there was no authentication at all and the "sensitive" info was contained in a file loaded by the main page labled the equivalent of "secrets.js". It was a pretty trivial application but it failed at even that level of data protection. Well clearly they just didn’t praise the machine hard enough. If you only used this one special prompt and tool yaddayadda

Dear boss, when I tell you "I haven't gotten a response from x department, and we're waiting on them" I'm not asking for you to tell me to contact them again, I'm asking for you to contact your counterpart.

You might have to spell that out.

This guy has a strange confidence in my powers since he's currently irritated at me that there isn't an electrician on site this morning, yet I am not an electrician, I do not manage electricians, I do not set the work schedules for the electricians, nor do I have anything to do with hiring enough electricians to provide 24/7 support.

Sounds like someone is shifting blame for their own mistakes to their subordinates. True leadership material.

My boss keeps insisting we call first, then email people. Dude. It's 2025.

I legitimately can't think of the last time I received a direct phone call that was worth answering for any reason other than to get the phone to stop ringing.

wolrah posted:I immediately hate your boss and wish them moderate harm. I've got an issue so we reached out to our sales rep by email. After multiple messages back and forth they asked for my phone number which is in the signature block of every message. Two days later I have not received a phone call and the issue remains unresolved. I'm not sure which I hate more - sales reps or phone calls.

I used to have a boss that wanted us to call someone if they didn't respond to an email in five minutes. And if they didn't answer the phone, walk to their desk. And if they weren't at their desk (which usually explains why they aren't answering phones) ask around to find them. He didn't stick around long, couldn't handle how chill our office was.

Honestly the method of contact is pretty circumstantial on the ticket. Sometimes calling them makes sense. Sometimes replying in an email makes sense. Sometimes finding time on their calendar and booking it makes sense. Sometimes physically heading to their desk makes sense. I'd say calling people on Teams (if they're green) usually is the best way in my experience because you can have a full conversation about the issue without the lag of emailing back and forth while an issue is still ongoing and remoting into a user's computer to interface directly with the problem is a fast way of identifying the issue, but even then that's not always the case.

Yeah, 5 minutes on a Teams call can save so much time and headaches and misunderstandings that come with emails.

A Teams call is fine but it should always happen after a quick "are you free for a call?" message

I think I worked with this motherfucker at my old job and if he hadn't quit before, I would've killed him. Jackass would stand there while I read the email he sent 5 minutes ago and expect an answer when all I had is "I don't know right now, I'll need to look into it after the dozen other things that need fixing." Annoy me and you get penalty boxed. It's that simple.

Thanks Ants posted:A Teams call is fine but it should always happen after a quick "are you free for a call?" message Right, a call is perfectly fine and often quite valuable when repeated back and forth discussion is useful, but that call should be preceded by either a text conversation where we decide a call would be more effective or a text saying something along the lines of "Can we talk about <topic>?" where <topic> is specific enough to let me decide whether the call will be useful and when to have it. If you just jump right to calling me it had better be objectively important (read: not just important to the caller) that we have this conversation ASAP, and if someone texts/emails asking for a call without saying what the call is about I will just ignore them. My boss loves to do that and I love the fact that I'm in a position to ignore him when he does.

It saves some google searching though. Instead of trying to hit the right keywords to get a stackexchange article to pop up I can just tell "write a python function that turns me into a god." The code doesn't work when it spits it out but the algorithm is usually close enough that I can get it running without much fuss (even though it's apparently 19% slower).

I asked somebody a question in a ticket and they gave their tentative answer, but added, "Maybe we should have a quick meeting and bring in @Bob1, @Bob2, and @Bob3." None of the three people came in to comment in the next two days (and I didn't expect them to) , so I just pretended the meeting suggestion never happened.

For me, Gemini takes three tries to get a working script. I run it, I feed the error back in, Gemini admits it made up a function and tries again, it fixes another error, and it's usually working by now. The first draft with imaginary commands worries me, but it gets it right in a few tries, and it does it appreciably faster.
