on: DevOps is a failure
Back in the late 90's I worked on a system that shipped on 4 different chip architectures, 4 different (unix-based) operating systems, dealt with different endianness and was more reliable and easier to understand. And it was more responsive to users with 1990's hardware than stuff is today. :shrug:

I watch Sailing Uma on Youtube. Young couple started with very little money and have over 6+ years built up quite a following and apparent income.
They in one video addressed the idea that they have to put their entire life online to pay for their lifestyle with the statement that they put out <60 minutes/week, certainly much less than "their entire life" and they seem to spend much more time enjoying life than I do as a computer programmer.

Well, on the current Mac Pro, going from 32GB to 1.5TB is $25K, but you also have to upgrade to the higher spec CPU @ $6K.

You just mail the unsealed envelope, add the content later and you’ve forged the time.

Warmer water supports less oxygen and life, so less stuff to see through. Not sure if that's the case here, but waters in the tropics are much more clear, but support much less life vs a kelp forest off CA.

on: 2FA on the command line
I take the secret from the initial signup (2d-barcode/hex string) and encrypt it with my public keys (private keys are on 2 different Yubikeys) and then distribute them to 3 different computers. Overkill, especially given that encrypted local iPhone backups store the GoogleAuthenticator secrets, but it means I won't lose my 2FA secrets if I lose my phone.

As for parking in a field, I'd want it to drop me off closest to the entry and then head to wherever the site wanted it to park.

When I read about that, I lost my mind. People who give their banking creds to someone who isn't their bank are insane.

Interesting, someone I worked with at a previous job left there to go to Okta. He did our Django/python Auth stuff. His Linkedin says he's still at Okta.
