like, it’s gonna be hard to implement if not impossible, be janky and hacky if it ever works, touch a whole bunch of other teams’ domains, piss off a lot of principles, be awful and uncomfortable to use, and be quickly superseded by something that can do it a lot easier and is in fact designed to handle what we want to do.

we should not do this

our internal stack overflow clone tells me not to bother doing this

we should just wait until we’ve moved over to the framework that helps us do this

why are we doing this

escelate to said principals who will hate it. cut and paste the ticket into an email and cc errebody , and paste choicest responses back into the ticket when you close it.

i opened a defect against the docs for a product because they told you to hack the config file directly instead of placing a dropfile in config.d

best practices, upstream recommended method, yadda yadda

response 1) but what if the customer already hacked it what then??

response 2) whatsa dropfile?

response 3) this is going away in 4 releases so is moot in 2 years. plz close.


i wrote the change to the doc for them, and put it in the initial report when i opened it.


why do i even bother?

someone deleted 20T of data from an nfs mount

apparently this is a problem





but not for me




the correct response would be to yawn at the aggrieved parties and say “i told you so”

i however, will go rummaging around the 2 week old backup that i will not admit exists to anyone involved. maybe after my nap.

c weekend project s: my youngest’s “roblox and horsey game” machine wont power on anymore. testing shows psu turns on if you jumper it, board wont power on with everything pulled out and a jumper on the power switch header, despite showing 3.3v there.


hmm, will the psu power on the old board thats been on the table for 2 years? yes! it do! i guess thats the new board now?

never throw working parts away.
