@mmby @ksaj bah, all the things on the internet I like turn out to be fake.

@ksaj wooooow

@Nonya_Bidniss @ksaj yeah, many, many, many (many) people pointed that out after I boosted it. It’s still beautiful “art” even if fake so I left the boost

@ksaj I knew it would be a circle under the right conditions but damn that is stunning.

Just need to stay away for one more meeting 😴

@achyuthcmu I am not going to lie, it’s super stressful, but I have an amazing team. Keeping a cloud provider safe is a lot of work.

I’ve been having a challenging go at $dayjob for $reasons, but some good happened today:
Hetzner delivered the first shiny new server.
And Fastly gave me a super discount on their service and I should be allowed to sleep in my own bed again as a result.

@vidmo I have been one for going on 4 years. I do not think this is a long term career for most people. I don’t think my body can handle that much more.

@achyuthcmu welcome! I am curious: what sort of work does a data engineer entail?

@vidmo @achyuthcmu it’s funny. I wrote a reply that was along these lines. But then I deleted and started over.

Yes, if you imagine a time when you were more stressed out than ever, paired with a time that you felt like absolutely nothing was going right, and add in that everything is on fire, it gets close.

Happy Friday! Don’t forget to git push to prod on your way out this afternoon

No spoilers, but that last episode of Foundation season 2 was crazy

@santisbon sure - I think I can do that pretty easily. It might be tomorrow before I am able to though.

Got back from the beach and found this

@ksaj I also have a dog. And when I come home after being out, it’s like Santa visiting on Christmas morning. The cats are just glad their employees are back on the job.

@clacke yes - it is a firehose now

@nichu42 no, it should auto approve

@todb bookwyrm is a finicky beast. Let me know if you have any problems

@mvilain yes. usually I say that I'm running low on router fluid.

@mvilain there shouldn’t be - lemmy has had some issues that require some database level tweaks to fix failed registration attempts
