How 'vibrant' a personality do you need for vibe coding?

Almost 1 year into my journey with HighPoint. It's been WONDERFUL!

That said, we have opportunities for DevOps-minded people in the UK. So I'm reaching out to my broader community.

Do you have hands-on skills with Terraform, Ansible, AWS Cloud? Do you have a special skill/passion around FINTECH? If so, DM me - we'd love to talk!

For all the techies who look at a day off as a good time to upgrade the router, wireless or virtualization services in the home. DON’T DO IT!

Your familial and marital relationships COULD be at risk if you disrupt home internet services when there is a concentration of family!

[Jason Davis @SNMPguy]

@mythryll @TracketPacer Bud, I was at a family funeral last month and my uncle suggested I set up a tech support table at the reception. “Jason’s in town! Bring your tech!”

*sigh*
Love your family. Serve them. 😏

My suggestion for event managers, especially in keynote/AV roles - limit your camera operators to ONE cup of coffee….

Getting a nervous tick sitting behind this guy at #AutoCon4

He’s got VSCode up, but is definitely NOT a fan of PEP8

[Jason Davis @SNMPguy]

Off to AutoCON4 in Austin!
Looking forward to seeing former colleagues and current customers, and partners. Also excited to be around my people…. 😊

In the inestimable words of Optimus Prime - “Autobots, roll out!”

If an IT application is not used and becomes problematic I'm calling it 'programma non grata'

Working a wireless network design for a customer and reviewing the floorplan. Oh look - the customer has a 'golf simulator' on this floor. Yeah - that's needs an AP in there. And we have to be able to PING it. :)

@Erika_theDev Isn't wireless tech GREAT!?

[Jason Davis @SNMPguy]

Got an obvious phishing message confirming my transaction with Paypal to buy BitCoin. Since it's down a bit lately I'm going to wait a few days for it to recover then start to demand my money in sale of that BitCoin.

Conference!

[Jason Davis @SNMPguy]

@crisisofconsc It’s like the weather saw the state trooper on I-95…

[Jason Davis @SNMPguy]

At the airport and I keep hearing an announcement “…and please report any suspicious behavior”. Well, how much time do you have?

[Jason Davis @SNMPguy]

In case you missed it - Happy National Propane Day!

It’s been a gas.

[Jason Davis @SNMPguy]

I was helping a customer with some legacy SNMP configs. He was asking about blocking certain MIBs and branches so I told him about SNMP-views and said "It's essentially blocking SNMP requests so you get a 'These are not the OIDs you are looking for'".

:)

[Jason Davis @SNMPguy]

@sysxplore did someone ring?

[Jason Davis @SNMPguy]

@mythryll @layer8packet @eastnashmike Some deep experience with one of those mentioned - recently I've been VERY impressed with Arista Validated Design (AVD) and Arista Network Test Automation (ANTA).

@t2hicks Does the 'Please Be Patient: Student Driver' sticker offset the State House license plate privilege?
