when your boss says "we'll get it done somehow" and you realize you're the somehow

to avoid burnout at work use the 30-30 rule: after 30 minutes of work, quit your job and disappear into the mountains for 30 years.

“Dando soporte a apps vibecodeadas” por @Nachichuri en #DevOpsDaysBA

Corporate rule : If the problem is too big, schedule a meeting and make it everyone's problem.

Coding was the bottleneck, then code reviews were the bottleneck. At some point, incidents are going to be the bottleneck.

El secreto para triunfar en tu trabajo es contestar "Ok buenísimo" donde normalmente contestarías "Ah sos un hijo de puta"

Dr: we had to remove half of your colon me. why

Vibecodearon algo, quieren engancharlo a prod, les pido el codigo para hacer un review, adjuntan los .js al ticket. estamos a nada de volver a deployar con ftp.

Last quarter I rolled out Microsoft Copilot to 4,000 employees. $30 per seat per month. $1.4 million annually. I called it "digital transformation." The board loved that phrase. They approved it in eleven minutes. No one asked what it would actually do. Including me. I told everyone it would "10x productivity." That's not a real number. But it sounds like one. HR asked how we'd measure the 10x. I said we'd "leverage analytics dashboards." They stopped asking. Three months later I checked the usage reports. 47 people had opened it. 12 had used it more than once. One of them was me. I used it to summarize an email I could have read in 30 seconds. It took 45 seconds. Plus the time it took to fix the hallucinations. But I called it a "pilot success." Success means the pilot didn't visibly fail. The CFO asked about ROI. I showed him a graph. The graph went up and to the right. It measured "AI enablement." I made that metric up. He nodded approvingly. We're "AI-enabled" now. I don't know what that means. But it's in our investor deck. A senior developer asked why we didn't use Claude or ChatGPT. I said we needed "enterprise-grade security." He asked what that meant. I said "compliance." He asked which compliance. I said "all of them." He looked skeptical. I scheduled him for a "career development conversation." He stopped asking questions. Microsoft sent a case study team. They wanted to feature us as a success story. I told them we "saved 40,000 hours." I calculated that number by multiplying employees by a number I made up. They didn't verify it. They never do. Now we're on Microsoft's website. "Global enterprise achieves 40,000 hours of productivity gains with Copilot." The CEO shared it on LinkedIn. He got 3,000 likes. He's never used Copilot. None of the executives have. We have an exemption. "Strategic focus requires minimal digital distraction." I wrote that policy. The licenses renew next month. I'm requesting an expansion. 5,000 more seats. We haven't used the first 4,000. But this time we'll "drive adoption." Adoption means mandatory training. Training means a 45-minute webinar no one watches. But completion will be tracked. Completion is a metric. Metrics go in dashboards. Dashboards go in board presentations. Board presentations get me promoted. I'll be SVP by Q3. I still don't know what Copilot does. But I know what it's for. It's for showing we're "investing in AI." Investment means spending. Spending means commitment. Commitment means we're serious about the future. The future is whatever I say it is. As long as the graph goes up and to the right.

Who decided that candles go on top?

Never do this. HTTP 200 already means there is no error. Don’t reinvent the bicycle. Don’t overcomplicate.

@jedux Si.

Creo que estamos para darle vida a esta remera con el quote de @Nachichuri en 2026.

when I filled out the form to activate "high speed ethernet" in my dorm room, I could not have imagined this

This is an insane chart

you can just do things. signal integrity is a myth propagated by wire companies.
