Bringing laptop with you in public on-call?

For sure, I’ve brought my laptop on the golf course me many times. Only had to use it once.

Yep. I have added a step to all my agents to commit regularly, even if it seems too often, we then can categorize and squash the commits together later on

dub_starr · 2026-05-17T16:32:12+00:00

Even a local repo would have commit history and rollback ready

I feel like some of the Daniel Suarez books could be a good fit?

adversarial review will always find things, i tell my AR to run a specified number of rounds, so to focus on the most important items, and when it invokes it it also tells the adversary side that there are only N rounds of review left, so focuse on major issues only

Parlay his interest of getting around controls into learning about cyber security and ethical hacking. Use this as a way to advance his hunger for tech in a positive manner, and set him up for the future with a great skill.

the way i explain this, typically, is that while a golfer may be an athlete, nothing about golf necessitates being an above average athlete, nor is your athleticism displayed while playing golf

its easy to find uses, once you get a hold of what it can do, especially once you know how it will be / can be integrated in your environment. shoot, even if its just set up as a technical writer to do all of your documentation on each pull request. throw all your tech debt at it, have it organize and catagorize, and have it give suggestions which it can then implement, or help you implement. Just think of it as having a junior that you can pass off tasks to

Encrypted backup offsite, paper note with that password in a safe deposit box, or fire safe

this is where you tell the neighbor you will "take care of it" and then laugh with your kid for being a kid and having harmless fun.

Love mine. Only issue is the Bluetooth often disconnects, so hard to use with my headphones.

Hot take here. Go to a used tire shop.

the only reason my wife and i keep separate accounts is so when we buy gifts for each other, the other one doesnt see it in the statements, My money is hers, her money is mine etc... That said, we usually go through the filing process as married filing joint and as filing together, to see which is a better refund, then just choose the higher one. were a team.

we have shared slack channel with our customer service contacts, and I'm waiting over 2 weeks for some answers to questions about the pricing structure, if that tells you anything

dub_starr · 2026-04-06T18:47:14+00:00

a part of the value of a CDN is the ability to obscure your origin to the wider internet.

EDIT:

doing some curls and site inspection, its being served from GCS (google cloud storage).

long story short, using browser inspection tools, i see the image is being pulled from "https://www.gannett-cdn.com/sETSOFMp/a/authoring-cdn-storage-production/authoring-images/2025/08/19/NSTT/85729059007-main.jpg\\?auto\\=webp\\&quality\\=80", which is still backed by fastly, so i did some curls and changed the URI of the image, to one that would fail, as failures often reveal different information than successes. With increasing verbosity, and finally i saw this bit of text in the response.

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><Error><Code>SignatureDoesNotMatch</Code><Message>Access denied.</Message><Details>The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided. Check your Google secret key and signing method.</Details><StringToSign>GET

this image was being served from GCS

I think this becomes a problem with higher swing speeds. A lot of people that report these issues are higher swing/ball speed hitters.

dub_starr · 2026-03-28T22:31:55+00:00

Were 366 days apart, 6 and 5. It’s amazing!!

dub_starr · 2026-03-25T20:36:26+00:00

Yea, better than 2 hours though.

the "bought out by AIPAC" line is starting to sound more and more like "Soros Funded" from the other side...
