@OP13 @SwiftOnSecurity I've had real adults say this. "well I mean, sure we haven't really adopted SSO... but like... you know that's really kind of more secure, if you think about it because like... compromising SSO would be all your eggs in one basket right!?"

@UK_Daniel_Card meanwhile twitter continuing to set the bar:

@thedatabunny If you're never unavailable, then getting approvals for the kinds of redundancy and other improvements to handle issues while you're away is impossible. More people should deliberately make themselves unavailable more often, even if they don't actually have anything better to do

[network_pun @network_pun]

@pbreit @ThierryBorgeat and they are, in the case of these particular funds, incorrect. If someone doesn't understand how it works, their mistaken expectations are their problem, or the problem of the people explaining things. There are other indexes with other rules where they would be correct.

@eliedelkind @UK_Daniel_Card @BrianRPhillips the point isn't that guy/gals ego. The point is to convince the customer that it's okay they don't have in-house leadership in that domain at all. It's about the CEO / Board being able to SAY they have a CISO to potential customers/investors. And for a certain scale that's best

@TracketPacer @NetEng_Ian is nothing sacred?

[network_pun @network_pun]

@DoomsdayGoth It's real, man. You shot your shot, if it pays off great, if not, you still learned something. I went and sat for the CCIE a couple weeks ago and did REMARKABLY worse than I expected. Turns out what I was paying for was an expensive study session. Now I know.

@lauriewired Wild, I had no idea this was going on. Do we have any numbers on how this affects read/write latency?

@ThePrimeagen The First Law books by Joe Aberecrombe are GOATed. They're pretty dark, and if you're not sure you're into that it might not be a good fit. But they're also extremely fun and rewarding. A less dark series of his is the Shattered Sea stuff.

@ThePrimeagen @elijahmcom at some point it starts looking like really he doesn't understand how mortality works and you start to wonder wtf his parents taught him.

[network_pun @network_pun]

@pbreit @ThierryBorgeat "people that haven't spent any time learning how a system works would be shocked by how it works" is not a useful argument.

[network_pun @network_pun]

@chhopsky @jaeporeon "I hate this" was maybe ruder than I intended - but resistance for resistances sake I really think is a slippery slope to a lot of bad outcomes

[network_pun @network_pun]

@chhopsky @jaeporeon They couldn't win arguments they didn't understand - so instead of engaging with the topic enough to either frame coherent arguments or change their own mind, they just said "fuck it - everything I don't like is fake". Trying to out-stupid stupid never pays off

[network_pun @network_pun]

@robertskmiles insofar as you want people to understand, accept, and internalize something while making decisions, it's a comms problem.

I don't like it either, and I'm bad at it. But it's still the case.

[network_pun @network_pun]

@BulletBouquets @DJSnM How many rainbows did you see growing up? How gay did it make you?

[network_pun @network_pun]

@KelseyTuoc Bro doesn't look like he approves of the situation.

"You people LIVE like this!?"

[network_pun @network_pun]

@thedatabunny Hantavirus ready for it

[network_pun @network_pun]

@emilyinvc this is why I just say "pacific", "eastern", etc. y'all out here wasting braincells remembering what month it is SMH

[network_pun @network_pun]

@TracketPacer Speak not of the network as if it is lost. For it rides on to Valhalla, SHINY AND CHROME!
