A pedantic geek. A boy out of which you can not take the country. Cleaning up technology messes that I didn't make, plus a few that I did.

Bwaha, this time Google Fi's voicemail transcript converted #DevOps to "Devil Ops". Now I really really want to work on a Devil Ops team.

I now know that I work in a place with a history of blaming people who point out that something could be done better. I regret the error.

I work with people who don't think there is any reason to encrypt financial data. Top notch security there.

Saw a scumbag #badrecruiter trying to make his mass-email look more legit by copying LinkedIn subject line format.

[Electronic Janitor @electrojanitor]

Popping in again. I don't know if it'll be a regular thing. Been a rough couple of years.

@SwiftOnSecurity The list of things that are not adequately taught in school is rather long. I'm almost more surprised when I find out something was taught properly.

@bigbadave @SwiftOnSecurity 7zip handles more formats than just zip.

@SwiftOnSecurity "I'd like a Kerberos ticket."
"Here's your Netscape cookie."
"I wanted a Kerberos ticket."
"Here's your MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1."
"Please, just give me a Kerberos ticket."
"Here's your OAUTH token."
"Uh, thanks."

@SwiftOnSecurity @hacks4pancakes That was in the regional HQ. Out at the facilities I think a number of things still ran some version of MS-DOS, and some ran an antiquated AIX.

[Electronic Janitor @electrojanitor]

@SwiftOnSecurity @hacks4pancakes I think it was around 2010 when I had to buy some 4.5GB and 9GB hard drives for a disk array that had to keep going for old software.

Will "Solo: A Star Wars Story" involve Life Day?

[Electronic Janitor @electrojanitor]

I really don't feel like going to work tomorrow. I've somehow let myself get pulled in to a role where I can't make things better in totally backwards company.

[Electronic Janitor @electrojanitor]

Ever wish you did drugs because alcohol just isn't quite enough?

[Electronic Janitor @electrojanitor]

I try to limit myself to abusing alcohol, caffeine, and sugar. And hot peppers.

If it had been my child, I would have had to explain that it looks like science is probably our only hope for avoiding mass starvation around the world.

[Electronic Janitor @electrojanitor]

I find it awkward to go to social gatherings hosted by one of the few humans I like because some of her friends are truly terrible people.

[Electronic Janitor @electrojanitor]

Not my child, so at least I didn't have to deal with that. I don't have a child, and I absolutely never will.

[Electronic Janitor @electrojanitor]

@SwiftOnSecurity No, wait, in a dive bar you can at least get drunk.

[Electronic Janitor @electrojanitor]

@SwiftOnSecurity So... social media is like an electronic dive bar?
