Picking up a group of the Samsung EVO drives in the rack is one of the best ideas I’ve had in a while. This was the right decision.

Disclaimer: These likely jaded and trauma provoked opinions are my own. 
I don’t have kids and I never will. So a lot of this is just the thoughts front of mind. In full disclosure I’m also a small angel investor. I’m posting this just to share the depth of my thought process. I don’t know if a would say this is my one and only opinion.

I know there has to be people out there doing all this in the name of “generational wealth” which honestly I feel like is a antisystem for “economic captivity”. I don’t think you can have one without the other.

Like how do you go around exploiting the world and sleep at night knowing the next generation is going to clean up after you? How do you reconcile that?

The buck stops with me. I can’t condone this without a little more ownership and accountability in the outcomes of the system.

It became exceedingly obvious to me that this entire thing is a sham. You mean to tell me prior generations knew this? And proceeded forward regardless? Like people knew the entire time?

Like — in all sincerity — there were other grown ups who woke up one day and looked around at the **motions broadly** broader system we call “the tech sector” and “the economy” and said to themselves… fuck it… let’s do it again… fuck everybody else. This is about me and my money.

So here is the thing that keeps me up at night.

Over the last 5ish years I’ve observed the tech industry. I’ve watched a few of my startups exit. I’ve watched founders walk away with millions. A lot of it didn’t make sense to me when I was younger. It does now. I’m sitting here watching Wall Street move money around after hours and watch my RSUs turn into toilet paper overnight “just cuz”. I’m watching profit motivated corporations directly impact the sustainability of our planet. 1/2

Dec 7: In addition to modelling database behaviour, it is important to produce relevant and realistic testing scenarios. System upgrades are generally something overlooked during testing, which means that upgrades are going to be causing most operational pain. This paper introduces Distributed System Upgrade Tester, and explores upgrade failures in a number of distributed systems: "Understanding and Detecting Software Upgrade Failures in Distributed Systems"

@nova I don't post there anymore, and I uninstalled the apps. I've stopped clicking on links to Twitter on here, because I now feel that posting links to there is somewhat rude to people that explicitly came here to get away from it. Not judging others who still do! I did too at one point! I just... don't do that anymore.

I miss Black Twitter. Mastodon is getting more Black voices, but we're still few and far between here.

@b0rk @tbroyer

So migrating followers requires public key/private key negotiation that is called out in the W3C ActivityPub spec. If you are missing followers they are likely from 1 or more offending instances who just needs to run/fix a sidekiq queue to renegotiate.
As far as Mastodon hosting goes: I strongly suggest everyone to use @ungleich

Happy to see both of you @b0rk and @filippo here :)

Hey #DDDesign community, I think it’s great that many of us have found our way to the fediverse and enjoying it. Maybe now is the time for a next step. Other communities have started their own Mastodon servers like phpc.social, ruby.social, or agilealliance.social. What do you think—should we have our own server (like ddd.social or mastoddd.one) as well?

@indu @hschwentner Omg thank you

So our family has switched back to #AlaskaAirlines for 2023. This is how you know we are committed to the #PNW!

It’s been real United ✌?

@fuzzychef

What do you mean "launched a campaign"?

Is there any more detail you can share here?

Sometimes I just sit here and think about how young the global economy is, and remind myself we are all just making this up as we go.

@kellogh It is, in fact, directly about Hachyderm.

I just submitted my 2nd proposal to #FOSDEM.

I am very nervous about this one!

@AstraKernel

What posts are you referring to and where would I check to see if they have "reached me"?

I know #Mastodon gets a lot of crap for "not being able to discover news and new content".

This morning is here what I found by leveraging the following hashtags and the "News" section of the mobile app:

- Linux magazine tips/tricks
- Kubernetes blogs
- NASA finds ice on Pluto
- Brittney Griner case
- Summer photographs of the Ouray ice park
- Apple announces end to end encryption
- 2 Million year old ecosystem discovered in Greenland
- TIME magazine Iran Women of the year

Learning about 56k compression algorithms in competitive markets as well as Unix based online dating in 1990 — this is the best ASMR for sleep ?

Goodnight #Hachyderm. Tomorrow is another day. Hopefully I get to start streaming #Aurae again soon.

@mattstaff see here ? https://hachyderm.io/@nova/109475932074091985
