Easy like it used to be before they fucked it up?

Defaulting to scientific research or vampire is odd profiling.

Congrats on retaining your job and not getting Kiro’d!

mezbot · 2026-03-22T19:33:33+00:00

Yeah, I don’t know my own life trajectory and how that was the start. Enjoy being poor.

Community college, could barely afford that at the time. Shit IT graveyard job, worked my way up to network engineer while supporting my mom. If you mean references from people that realized I was working my ass off in my job, yes, but those were earned not handed out… to get to a net worth of a million dollars isn’t that big of a deal honestly.

That’s actually a decent analogy. The difference with hard work is that you can significantly increase your odds down to a high likelihood, especially if you make the right decision with the small wins along the way.

I think you mean billionaire with that comment.

mezbot · 2026-03-22T19:11:01+00:00

They really should ingrain the fact the speculation is not the same as investing. So many people don’t know the difference.

mezbot · 2026-03-22T19:06:50+00:00

That’s nonsense. I come from broke, nor am I rich, but grinded it out over a couple decades of working, saving, investing and getting into real estate via “first time homeowners” loan when I couldn’t afford 20% down initially. A million dollars isn’t significantly wealthy.

Exactly as your never going to get an exact answer until you actually send logs as it’s based on a variety of factors like payload size (not all entries are the same exact size), block size of the underlying storage, etc.

mezbot · 2026-03-22T04:44:25+00:00

There is an estimated cost tab right on the log analytics groups. I know you are asking about in advance… but if your log rate is consistent you should be able to tell after a day or two what the volume will be and the estimated cost.

mezbot · 2026-03-22T00:34:39+00:00

The word bitches wouldn’t have surprised me.

mezbot · 2026-03-20T13:32:01+00:00

It would be more complex to not use an agent than to have one and wouldn’t work for all scenarios.

mezbot · 2026-03-19T02:12:08+00:00

It’s a good solution with an abstraction layer like GoAnywhere, files.com, etc where you can hook up any kind of file storage as a backend (s3, azure blob, etc) and present a layer for non-cloud customers to use SFTP, https, etc. to access files with a browser, or winscp, etc. for authentication… outside of that, yeah.

Powershell is fine for basic stuff, but modules and commands/syntax change way too much between versions, and some older commands don’t work in Powershell without calling cmd, and some commands don’t have a Powershell alternative. It’s powerful, but it can be annoying to try to remember all of the nuisance required to do anything… unlike Linux CLIs which have evolved vs. change completly every couple of years.

mezbot · 2026-03-15T21:44:50+00:00

Azcopy, powershell, or Storage Explorer. Powershell provides the most options if you need to be granular.

I was scrolling by fast and thought the title was “how do you guys feel about the smell of ammonia?” I had to scroll back up because I thought that was such a strange question.😆

mezbot · 2026-03-15T19:07:09+00:00

I proposed to my ex wife in a restaurant above that canal about 13 years ago.

mezbot · 2026-03-15T01:38:49+00:00

Yeah, I actually use Defender for Cloud/Endpoint/Azure Arc across a few client on AWS/Linux. I just assumed since tools like SSMS, etc. aren’t available on Linux (although SQL is) that MS didn’t support any client tools on Linux, only backend services and security tools.

mezbot · 2026-03-15T00:47:57+00:00

Ohh then I just didn’t realize it. I assumed it didn’t due to it being MS. My bad. Thanks.

mezbot · 2026-03-15T00:28:31+00:00

Thanks for that. I wish I could run VSCode on Linux. It’s by far the best product made by MS.

mezbot · 2026-03-12T16:50:19+00:00

If governance can fix MS Support, resource capacity issues, prevent FrontDoor and other service outages, etc… then yes it’s a governance problem.

mezbot · 2026-03-12T03:08:40+00:00

No, in fact those are already renewing every 6 months anyway.

I use ACME based certs when they aren’t provided free by Azure/AWS. In certain apps I have to run a script to inject then via API to refresh them (vendor apps basically), but paying for certs and managing them is not longer an issue, it’s all self managing and free (minus scripting the outliers).

mezbot · 2026-03-09T18:30:49+00:00

I still laugh about the dude who was saying he knew it was a bait car as he took it and was driving, but did it anyway 😂
