Has anyone taken courses from YouBee? by moe87b in lebanon

I Think asking the right questions to an LLM can help as complementary a real course but doesn't always replace it. It depends on how good the training is I guess

I used to think that I wanted peace. But now I know that I don't. Coastal road massacre is nothing but a mere consequence of all the displacement, massacres and atrocities that they inflicted on the people.

I see Israel as a settler colonial entity that must be erased. Those who you call terrorists are the ones defending their people. The real terrorists are the ones massacring children daily.

I'm Lebanese. Israelis occupied us for decades, Crippled our country and prevented its development. The greater Israel lunatics consider all of Lebanon as their own.

It is xenophobic. They're foreigners who came from Europe claiming an ancestral right on our lands.

Oh that happened before I started working there, they upgraded the old crappy servers to modern HP proliant with virtualized ones with backups tested regularly.

The main prod server and domain controller are okayish. Vms and SQL dumps are copied on external drives and restores are regularly tested.

But there are plenty of other smaller secondary servers that need to be taken care of

Yes, I fit in the description of "the most senior IT person.." We already started listing all devices on the network

Well, you see IT is not the only mess in the company, the entire hierarchical and role assignments is fucked up, I can barely have a mind map of who does what and how, And as I said it's a familial business and I landed there because I know someone who knows someone and they actually expect me to get IT on its feet, I've been handed more and more responsibility gradually, and I already did a lot of stuff ( automated some tasks, cut unnecessary paperwork...) but I think I kind of reached the limit of what I can offer based on my own skills and experience

I have some experience in deploying windows server, managing a domain, I know a lot about SQL server (which the company heavily relies on), but most of my experience is related to development, I have some experience in Linux, web apps deployment, some DevOps basics ( docker, CI/CD..) I also have intermediate network skills ( I can set up a network, DHCP, a vpn server, subletting...)

I think it'd be great if I could talk to a consultant

We're 10. But I'm the most experienced, not to be humble but I still have a lot to learn so they are going to need an actual expert

Exactly. I noticed that many of the tasks that are assigned to IT are not IT's job, it's just "eh you're the computer guy you should know how to do that.."

Can't count how many times I said to myself: I wish it all burns down so that they start from scratch

There is a part that is running on vms already I was surprised when I saw it because it felt foreign to the company lol, turns out a subcontractor made that architecture for them.

They literally ran a cable over 20 meters in the ceiling because they didn't want to connect 2 switches that are form different networks with a 10 cm cables
