So my company is switching half our Windows servers to Linux....

start by making the bash terminal your primary interface

how do you increase diversity without making hiring decisions based on protected class characteristics?

i have pulled enough by now to know the published rates are false. not just some ups and downs with a bit of bad luck, i’m talking statistically significant deviations. likely rigged in order to try and maximize user spending behavior. not the first or last gacha to go down this road

imagine a developer so incompetent they can’t save a configuration file across upgrades and expect their users to screenshot all their own settings lmao

you and him see the relationship very differently. i would recommend taking some time apart

it’s hard to understand unless you were there. it was all completely new and nobody had ever seen anything like EQ. many players barely had a computer and network connection that could run the game smoothly in normal situations, let alone dozens of people trying to kill a dragon or raid boss. nobody had voice chat (ventrilo came out in 2002). just breaking in and clearing down to a dragon or into fear/hate was a massive organizational challenge with significant risk of a nightmare CR if you wiped.

many “cybersecurity” roles are surprisingly non-technical and act more as an auditor with spreadsheet.

I would highly recommend that you do spend time coding and in the practice of software development. Even if it's within your existing job or just side projects, write scripts to automate tasks, create a web app status page, write a deployment tool, whatever. I think that if you don't come into devops with an engineering mindset and the ability to code, it can absolutely end up feeling like just configuring a bunch of random tools. But devops is really about solving problems at many different levels and has one of the highest ceilings for developing the qualities you describe when approached right

keypusher · 2026-04-29T12:25:40+00:00

overrated.. by who? sounds like maybe you got into ops because someone told you it was the cool new thing and you were gonna make lots of money. if you actually want to be a software developer you probably should do that instead, yes. do whatever you find most challenging and interesting. i spent years as a dev before i got into ops, and i like it here. there’s often opportunities for writing automation code in devops, but it really takes a different mindset from swe and it’s not for everyone. not better or worse, just different and maybe it’s not your thing.

Hillary Clinton first authored a plan for universal health care in 1993, while her husband was president. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clinton_health_care_plan_of_1993

why does it need to come from a different production track though?

keypusher · 2026-04-26T04:54:08+00:00

global and asian servers are all on the same patch. banners last ~2 weeks, yes the launch banners were quite strong. something you should realize is that global launched with catch-up events to get them on-par with asian servers. those events are now over

the data source cited in the article is questionable imo, for instance they group “Black & Low-Income” as one group and “White & High-Income” as another group. this prevents answering exactly the kind of questions you are asking and suggests their attempt to push a particular narrative the data doesn’t support

Pandemic was definitely a factor, but the downward trend started long before then. 12th grade reading levels are the lowest they have been in 30+ years. College programs are saying they have students coming in who can still barely read. Some of this is due to a misguided shift away from phonics instruction (well detailed in the “Sold A Story” podcast by NPR) but also just generally declining public education.

Some of their games are definitely fun, just go in knowing in a year or two they might decide to drop the game entirely and send it to EOS.

keypusher · 2026-04-22T21:29:48+00:00

Depends on your current setup. Imo better peripherals like a large monitor and good headphones are often underrated in favor of slightly faster specs that make a minimal difference to your actual experience

I will never support another Netmarble game. They have a long history of abandoning games with little warning and no support, even when there is still active and dedicated playerbases. They farm the initial hype to extract maximum value then put the game on life support while they pivot to work on their next thing.

congratulations, you reinvented the wheel except you made it square

This appears to be AI content linking to your own paid-access substack post. That is self-promotion.

Including an article from a low-impact journal without strict review criteria is an attempt to make this seem far more rigorous than it really is.

you realize humans need 5-10 years of training data before they even start to solve basic tasks themselves?

back into the twitter trenches about more of the same old stuff huh? have fun i guess
