   After three months of arguing with devops that they need to expose the inventory in a way we can crawl it to keep certain lists updated, I am now updating that list by trying to batch-deploy everything on the list, and then deleting the services that aren't in the inventory.

   I fucking hate it here.

     @silverwizard It doesn't even SCRAPE well, silver.

     The JSON that populates their stupid UI for the service doesn't contain the names I need for the deployment list as strings, so it's not even really an inventory-per-se.

     From a "responsible for DIsaster REcovery" perspective I'm really considering causing a disaster to demonstrate how inappropriate these approaches are.

     @silverwizard I've been reading up on this systems mathemetician named Theodore somethingorother that's been giving me some ideas.

     @silverwizard We're scating perilously close to the NDA fire but for some reason we're deploying Services and inventorying ContainerNames and dear god I sometimes want to just start swapping labels at random in the coffee room.
