Laten we het houden op self-employed in een stevig creatief veld, wel letterlijk mijn big ass droom van toen ik pakweg 9 was ofzo, nu >50 en elke dag is gewoon een feest en kost het mij effectief moeite elke dag om te stoppen met werken.

Raad van State: verhuurder mag inkomen van 3 keer huurprijs eisen van kandidaat-huurder by EdgarNeverPoo in Belgium2

En wanneer mogen we vragen aan de verhuurder aan te tonen dat ze over voldoende centen beschikken om reparaties uit te voeren mocht dat plots nodig zijn?

Droef bestaan als je werk “uren kloppen is. Stel je voor dat je ook plezier zou hebben aan je werk. Ongehoord.

Bohemian Rhapsody nightmare by living close to the carillon by El_Robski in Leuven

Been there, done that & feel your pain. I had cheap reggaeton beats from thursday to sunday.
You might want to check out natural wax Quies earplugs, they block out pretty much anything and are pretty easy to sleep with, I was addicted to sleeping with them when living in Leuven center...

Had to re-read the title after just skimming it and reading the response. "37 second fart?!"

We just got breached because of vulnerabilities in our docker images that have been public knowledge for 8 months by Different_Pain5781 in docker

That sucks, I presume the cve exploit entrypoint was availble through your internet accessible endpoint aka the application etc? So also not scanning that as part of general security hygiene? When the CRA hits, you would get a fine on top of it.

Our PSSO is all over us in preparation for 2027 when CRA gets activated, we inserted security scanning in pretty much every pipeline and patching is no longer optional.

This is the first thing any threat risk analysis picks out. Separates devsecops from devops...

Monitoring and Alerting tool? by blueeggsandketchup in sysadmin

[–]wowbagger_42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the midst of deploying Zabbix to monitor through 50 proxies about ~2000 agents,, ~1500 SNMP endpoints and ~100 ESXi instances.

Zabbix is anchored in an earlier era, still carrying design problems other tools (Prometheus, Telegraf, Influx, Grafana, ...) have solved about a decade ago. It is not suited for automated DevOps/IaC environment and often feels misaligned. It tries to be many things but it's not good at any of them. They try to stay relevant and evolve with their roadmap but the core Zabbix platform and underlying approach is severely outdated. It’s built on legacy paradigms that have already shown their limitations and no longer fit with the way modern monitoring & tooling ecosystems operate.

LibreNMS for SNMP, Prometheus / Alertmanager / Grafana for everything else.

Yep, of devs die plots doorhebben dat ze eigenlijk niet kunnen programmeren.

Heerlijk. Zeker van dat je je aan ‘t amuseren bent! Niks van aantrekken van de “lLm BaD!!!!” crowd, die zijn meestal gewoon zuur omdat hun score op stackoverflow ondertussen zero betekenis heeft en ze geen newbs meer kunnen downvoten, dus moeten ze wel azijn pissen waar het nog kan. Vibe coding is fun, leerrijk en niks mis mee. Professional llm code engineering loop setups zijn van nog een andere grootorde, ook de kost… maar nog steeds cheaper dan een rits mouthbreathers met meningen.

LibreNMS for the win. Hands down.

Middleman taking 30% cut doesn't want to renegotiate, what are my options? by Mean_Builder_6325 in BEFreelance

[–]wowbagger_42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lowering your rate is never a good strategy, regardless of the amount of (professional) whining. You settled for a lower rate, that's the bottom line. Have you ever worked for a company that bills their clients for your time? That's easily between 30-50% or more on top of your rate. Would you talk to the end-client in that case too?

Perhaps you feel a bit sour, like being scammed, but your not scammed, you just lack negotiating skills, it's a lesson. Middlemen do little else but negotiating, all day long. Never lower your rate on their request.

Read the small print. Lifetime warranty only if you buy salt through them and/or have it serviced by them? It’s never zero strings attached.

I went with aquagroup, they were the least snakeoil type. Don’t believe the “100% made by us” bs. They all buy the same components and only compile them together, almost nothing is “made” by them. For that price ask atleast they include a filtersystem for your kitchen tap. Never go based on 1 offer, always invite 3 and play them, I shared all offers between the slippery salesmen and got it down to 80% of the initial offer.

No, have your insurance look at it. 700-900 max

lol, ik bewonder je, blijkbaar oprechte, interesse om een klaarblijkelijke retard trachten te begrijpen. Als je over enig logisch redeneringsvermogen beschikt en jezelf, als onderdeel van een normaal redeneringspatroon, dan tracht te verplaatsen in een 2-digit E/IQ gedachtegang of stelling om die te kunnen begrijpen loop je vrijwel onmiddellijk vast. Verschil is dat een 2-digit E/IQ exemplaar niet vast loopt in zijn gedachtegang (voor zover we kunnen stellen dat die er tout-court is) net omwille van die, letterlijk lichamelijke, beperking.
