I’m going to destroy the servers and db then murder the janitor with a hammer.
Oops *deploy
Assuming green is the boss: I totally agree. If you don’t proofread your texts before hitting send, that might be indicative of how you deploy things, too.
I’d love to know how the story continues - did they lose their job? - but considering the JPEG patina on this I don’t think we’ll ever find out.
Jpeg patina 🤣
That also cracked me up. Great phrase
I barely proof read anything I type on my phone, and my comment history is a testament to that. I deploy code or system changes most days, but I proof read the shit out of those on top of the QC they goes through. Any company worth anything will have a process for reviewing and approving anything being deployed, or probably destroyed for that matter.
Up until recently I worked for a company worth anything, and you would be surprised at how *many" major outages were caused by either skipping the process or gaps in the process.
You know that adage: “the safety rules are written in blood”? The same is true for change processes, just with a cost measured in dollars instead of human injury/worse.
Or sometimes there are just multiple failures. That’s what I learned from reading Admiral Cloudberg about air disasters: even if you have n safety measures, there’s still the chance that there’ll be n+1 failures.
You vastly overestimate the number of companies that are ‘worth anything’.
could just be ADHD. the impulse to speak your mind rarely translates to the impulse to speak to da computah
The older the jpeg the more likely it is that he’s moved on to another job by now.
the politeness of this interaction is what makes me laugh
“I know but I insist 🙏”
Applogies
What a power move. Now he gets a paid day off.
I had a coworker who tried something like this on a federal holiday, ended up bringing down production on everyone’s day off, and ruining a bunch of people’s days to clean up the mess just because someone was trying to go above and beyond.
John’s playing 4D chess
He’ll be the next US president, but for that he’ll have to actually destroy everything he touches, not just make threats to do it.
Claude run destroy production script.
Aka Claude, do a basic task
Brb baws imma just do a quick lil
ddcommand in prd🙏🙏🙏🙏
du* - applogies hehe
I don’t get it. Why the other person, presumably their boss, asked them to take a day off?
Some people try to work the weekend or weird hours, even when no one asked them to.
And a deploy by someone you don’t trust to deploy on the weekend would be a concerning situation
