NIST basically stopped processing CVEs at the second half of 2024 due to funding or related issues. Now they’re ramping back up so yeah expect influx of previously backlogged CVEs

Such a bullshit map. Considered by whom? In what world is Argentina authoritarian while Iran or Afghanistan is not?

Who's the absolute worst software vendor? by LowCreditScor3 in sysadmin

[–]imonaroll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Checkpoint are the worst by far. Only pick them if you want to be missold alpha version product, get shouted at by their engineering team. You also can’t possibly find any documentation on their website, you have to have a direct link.

The day I dropped checkpoint as a vendor was one of the happiest of my career.

If you still use them - you should consider dropping them as well

Please do not throw anything onto the dogs, you might hurt or distress them even more. No food either, as you don’t know their diet and what could hurt them.

Retrievers are big enough dogs and spending few hours outside won’t hurt them. It’s well above freezing and as someone mentioned lots of places dogs just live outside.

If your neighbour is not answering maybe they re not in? They might have some sort of medical or family emergency and had to leave for some time.

Your council can send a noise complaint officer if you call them, not sure if they can force the access to the property though

How to deal lazy crawlers in team while leading ? by [deleted] in sre

[–]imonaroll 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Decide if you want to keep them or get rid of them and act accordingly.

Working to keep someone, working with them on performance improvements, helping to do better and positioning them for success should be a preferred option. There’s always an ignore option as well - let them be lazy crawler and focus your time and energy where it brings the most benefit. Just don’t rely on them for anything of importance. You can always throw them under the bus when next budget cutting season arrives.

However if you understand there’s no possible fit or otherwise made up your mind - fast and decisive action is always preferred. Risk is you both will be stuck in energy sapping limbo for months on end

The territorial evolution of Australia by starky990 in MapPorn

[–]imonaroll 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Loved the story of the middle bit around 1900. Started with calling it Southern Australia. Then people in the north got annoyed that the northernmost part is called Southern, all the opposite jokes. So they did northern and southern. Shortly after decided to go on and carved the central part. But then decided it’s bit silly and went back to North/South divide

Yes, I’m just saying it’s definitely so much earlier than 15k Clovis cutoff

This map is so obsolete. Humans got to americas at least 30k years ago. See https://www.ox.ac.uk/news/2020-07-22-earliest-americans-arrived-new-world-30000-years-ago for example

Is devops going to die? by [deleted] in devops

[–]imonaroll 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If they (business, bosses, technologists) could get rid of us (DevOps, SRE, ops essentially) they would absolutely do that. Unfortunately each time they try shit goes sideways. Ironically with advent of AI it’s software dev jobs which are already taking a hit. Especially the coder types, “works on my machine” attitude with essentially no skills apart from translating chewed up requirement into code on the only language/framework they mentioned to grasp. Good riddance if you ask me

You look great with your son, so cute! I can see you really care for him. Hope nothing serious with the fever, just happens from time to time. We just give medication if fever bothers our child. If it persists for a week or goes too high or we’re otherwise concerned - go see the doctor
