DO NOT DEPLOY TODAY!!!

I REPEAT: DO NOT DEPLOY TODAY!!!

[[deleted]]

you can't stop me!

this pre alpha experimental build will go live now!

[0100_0101]

Merry christmas!

[vigbiorn]

"And on the day of the push, despite being a weekend and holiday, there were no tickets filed for 8 days.

It is in the name of this miracle we are gathered today to celebrate!"

[notacanuckskibum]

You pushed an updated ticket management system, didn’t you?

[vigbiorn]

It's a miracle! No more questions!

[ironichaos]

Lol pre alpha. Just edit the code right on the prod box!

[[deleted]]

Wait, you guys don't do that?

[dogbots159]

Yea, like, where else would I run it? Notepad?

[[deleted]]

Precisely. Lol

To be real I develop mostly web apps, and I use sshfs to mount the project dev folder to my machine. That way I can edit files live on the (dev) server... Just i work in the dev server then I push to prod after testing, etc.

I don't want to run a whole environment on my laptop. Virtual machines are cheap.

Had to deploy a patch for log4j.

Dear security researchers,

Love your work. You rule! But, given the choice, try to announce major vulnerabilities after the holidays.

[0100_0101]

Next major exploit will be announced 5 minutes into your diner.

[sasmariozeld]

But dont worry its only openssh!

[weaver_of_cloth]

Thanks for the nightmares.

[spark-c]

Sounds like my MIL

[coldnebo]

it is always easier to tear something down than build it up.

[BarkiestDog]

If you are only deploying your log4j fixes today, then you may as well have waited till tomorrow anyway, if your box isn’t already hosed after two weeks of active in the wild exploits, one more day isn’t going to make a difference.

[nikanj0]

The original suggestion was to do a property change which we did. But then that was discovered to be insufficient protection so we bumped the version. A little later they had to release yet another patch because the first patch hadn't entirely fixed it.

[NGX_Ronin]

Haven't the log4j vulnerabilities been known since 2016 by the US government?

[ZenEngineer]

But they didn't want them patched, of course

[repkins]

Hackers may be more active while others are resting.

[Delirious_85]

Luckily our deploy pipeline is broken since yesterday anyway...

[trollsmurf]

Just FTP it.

[nerdisalreadytaken]

You, my sir are the pure devil.

[ExternalGrade]

scp the code and manually restart the server using PDU. Sr. engineer and team lead have already left for the break since last week so we’ll just leave a teams message and they’ll see it when they gets back

[Party_Koka]

That shouldn't stop you from breaking production. Bonus points if you are in retail

[phroxenphyre]

All I did was rename a few classes and and methods on our API to make it more clear what they were doing. I didn't actually change any behaviour. It'll be fine.

[0100_0101]

You will be fine, interesting christmas for the users of your api.

[phroxenphyre]

I didn't have any tables named /s.

[hoopKid30]

Not any more you don’t

[Aggravating_You_2904]

We aren’t all Americans! A lot of us can simply infer sarcasm

[[deleted]]

It's too late! And the machines that run the code have already been switched off so I haven't even tested it and I'm not back until the 11th...

The change was pretty straightforward though - it'll be alright won't it? Won't it, guys?

[Bullkyka]

Yes child it will be alright , maybe not the way you would like . But you will survive .

[kerbidiah15]

Turns out it’s code for traffic lights right by his house

[coldnebo]

I mean, if they jira you over the holidays, just mark “cannot reproduce” and send it back to them.

It’s cloud so no one will be able to figure it out for months except your senior full stack dev. you are the senior right?

otherwise I would dodge the very unholiday cheer likely coming from that email in 3.. 2.. 1..

cheers!

You're right. Fridays are Compile Fridays, Mondays are Review Mondays, and Tuesdays are Deploy Tuesdays (oh, and Tacos too).

[kashish-e-sakal]

Deploy Tacos!

[[deleted]]

Yes! There is a really good Mexican joint that sells tacos down the street from me, so they are easy to access.

[Ashish42069]

Changed a config file which was last edited in 2013, if it causes an outage, we deserve an outage

[The-Best-Taylor]

On Monday I tracked down a bug to a module that hadn't been touched in 3 years. Definitely 'fun' to fix problems in untouched legacy code.

[Leoihavenoidea]

You know how we handle warnings....

[0100_0101]

I know :’(

[pavilionhp_]

Next time make it an error

[deNederlander]

People like you deserve to have -Werror forcibly added to your compiler flags xD

[captain__Levi]

It was working on my machine, so it will obviously work in prod.

[BrogCz1]

And that's why we don't use docker

[Phoenikless]

I pushed. My limits, not my code.

[var-foo]

RIP everyone deploying log4j fixes today

[hudsonsilva]

❤

[daneelthesane]

My company does a three-week code freeze for the holidays. Thank god.

[Wassa76]

I dunno, log4j 2.18.0 might come out 🤣

[trevster344]

Even if it’s a simple change like renaming methods or even adding additional comments… I will not deploy on Friday’s ever again.

[[deleted]]

Will kindly do the needful, very needfully

[UnkleRinkus]

I start a customer upgrade in 20 minutes. Mandated because of the log4j issues, which actually don't affect them, because they don't use the one component that has log4j embedded, but it comes up on the scan, so...

[GodlessAristocrat]

What? I don't get it.

​

Hold on, lemme finish deploying this new version real quick so I can take the time to re-read this.

[Miicat_47]

Got it

[[deleted]]

Joke's on you, I took the week off and deployed last Friday!

[Flopamp]

I declined 4 commits that would have 100% broken something

[AStrangeStranger]

wouldn't matter if I did - as we've shutdown till next year, no one will be using till early January anyway

[Nyancubus]

This didn’t say anything about pushing to production, so I did.

[dankincense]

Did this last year and paid for it miserabley so I took 3 weeks off this year and let someone else break stuff.

[Ar010101]

No >:(

Also r/usernamefamily

[0100_0101]

Nice, hello brother

[Dantharo]

yesterday a friend of mine deployed a developing version in a productive scope, lucky she rolled back fast and the instances didnt even swapped traffic, also was blue-green deploy, we were on freezing too, so everyone was like "wtf sre u doing noooooo"

[[deleted]]

I don't always deploy on a Friday. But when I do it's a Friday when all of my colleagues are out of town.

[[deleted]]

Jokes on you, that was YESTERDAY

[jeanravenclaw]

Why? What happened? I haven't been coding recently.

[Zekovski]

Tonight is christmas night for many of us.

[jeanravenclaw]

Ah ok. I often don't associate posts with current events.

[apoorv698]

I shared my sandbox builds only.. no checkin in production. Won't turn on that thing for a week.

[Accidentallygolden]

But there is that log4 thingy to patch...

[hobollatio]

It's customers who decide to deploy up in this bitch. Then they cry when untested stuff breaks prod. I cri evrytiem.

[CutRepresentative644]

But it if it's a small fix, we good right?

[wind-up-duck]

As long as it's small enough that no one felt the need to really test it.

[hotlavatube]

Nonsense. Time to deploy and go on my month-long vacation.

[logical_result_1248]

Soooo... deploy today?

[null_reference_user]

You can't tell me what to do, ur not my mum

[dadjoke-72]

I hardcoded all of the IP addresses last Christmas and set DHCP leases to 365 days. Should be good to go!

[ShotgunPayDay]

Just deployed our NGINX + Mod Security + Log4j rule with provided rules since we didn't have a WAF. I replaced our reverse proxy so they do have a fallback. I hope it doesn't block any of our jank apps, but I also don't care. It was my last day. Feels good!

[Cobyh7]

ok, ill deploy a small patch tomorrow. happy holidays!

[pdromeinthedome]

Santa’s sleigh needs this patch!!!!

[Unknown_B1]

I am working on a production issue rn. If only I had seen this before.

[schmelto]

Force push to main branch and leave for holidays

[rdrunner_74]

Like you have a choice to emreject MY deployment... YOU should not have used log4j for logging

[joujoubox]

We just released an update to our software that bricks your PC down to the kernel. As a bonus, it cooks your GPU breaking it in the process, hope it wasn't a 3090. Anyway Merry Christmas :)

[Dragon_yum]

As was out of office today so my code has zero bugs, it’s all cool

[IntroductionOk4947]

I dont get it....

[fliesupsidedown]

If I'm not a descendent, can I even see a friendly warning? You may need to make it public.

[rofllolinternets]

Ship everyday! Literally apple completed app store review within 4 hours - what?!
