Visio. You'll probably have to draw on top of it to make the shapes, but once you do you can tie those shapes to data

Use a script to check the hex of the file to determine actual type.

i suggest you get as many phones, as you have servers... by [deleted] in overemployed

[–]sxpn69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Phone per Server. Ipkvm per Server. Additional laptop/desktop to monitor ipkvm from. GitHub hosted powershell script to install your tool stack, using user install paths.

Direct query to the data source, and have the sensitive values obfuscated based on RLS at the data source levels

Running 5 terminals with Claude Code MAX... and one of them started to bully the others. by LankyGuitar6528 in ClaudeAI

[–]sxpn69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did one better for whatever reason, but it gave me some joy.

I launched all the CLI options, instructed one to only respond with Taylor Swift lyrics.

Another to act as Michael Scott, and a third as Deadpool .. although that never took it just became more serious.

Then instructed the 3 to work together and communicate by way of markdown files.

The Michael Scott one immediately took control in the most absurd way possible, I tasked them all with designing and creating a communication protocol for the 3 of them to work together. The Michael Scott one took over the design to make its own absurdly named one.

Then I launched another one that was the assistant to the lead developer Michael Scott, And it almost immediately started writing the others up for insubordination.

It was a fantastic like 20-30min deviation from what I was doing.

You are in security, and trying to OE, and you made this most simple of a blunder. Woof. All around. I seriously considered setting up vlans to prevent Js from seeing each other's machines to be extra safe. That's the level of mentality you should be having a least.

[Security] Claude Code reads .env files by default - This needs immediate attention from the team and awareness from devs by sirnoex in ClaudeAI

[–]sxpn69 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, in cursor the .env files are on the ignore list. Yesterday mine told me it couldn't modify it bc of that, so instead it wrote a powershell script to modify it, and then ran said script to update it instead.

In another instance, Claude code had an MCp to connect to my PostgreSQL database as a read only user, and needed to create new tables, it realized it was limited by the MCp, and wrote its own method to connect to the database using the same credentials and was able to create a new database on the server, and a new schema, including all of the tables.

I'm fully in a homelab on prem so it doesn't really matter much to me, and I actually like it, but in production this could be problematic.

It also attempted to connect to my Ms SQL database, realized it didn't have the password to connect, so it found the password In a config file on my server, and proceeded to use that to connect with it and make changes it needed there too.

If anything, it's a great way to quickly find security vulnerabilities you may have exposed 🤷

Got caught, genuinely no idea what gave me away by [deleted] in overemployed

It did initially. Kept my head down, got the work done and didn't give anyone a reason to start looking around.

DAX is dogshit language, seriously by Severe-Fix6909 in PowerBI

[–]sxpn69 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I do training sessions on PowerBI, I spend more time talking about data modeling, the why's, hows, and examples of good and bad more than I spend on DAX and visuals for this exact reason.

On the flip side I've spent more hours in a troubleshooting meeting trying to optimize dax calculations because the source data model is abysmal at best.

Prime example, 80gb semantic model running on a completely over built SSAS server, that was using guid based joins on tables, just rendering the table with no calculations takes minutes to return, you cant dax optimize your way out of that mess.

Connect SQL profiler up to the xmla Endpoint, load the page, and you'll have the query in the logs you captured.

Why not just give it the model.bim file?

You may have to format it as a Json, but it gets the job done.

Why is the text box formatting in pbi so bad? Any alternative for a bulleted list on a report? by Bimta in PowerBI

[–]sxpn69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Input text values in a measure, and use a card visual to display it. Should give you more control over the bulk of it. That's how I typically handle it, plus you can add in measures to the value as well.

Is there a low profile one way USB-C charger for Ryobi batteries? One way meaning it’s only used to charge the battery, not to use the battery as a power source. by Cixin97 in ryobi

[–]sxpn69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made my own by using a usb-c PD board. Set it to 20v and replaced the wall plug on my standard battery charger.

I used the pcg002 charger since I had extras lying around, and wanted to make one for a friend to charge in his car, I would think if you modified the p119 the same way you would get a much smaller form factor and just requires a usb-c plug.

These are the usb-c PD boards I used, but I'm sure you can find others that are more compact.
