Delightful! The second half took a turn. I will say though, was not expecting the tooth fairy to catch strays hah
1·5 months agoWhat is the value in hearing opinions that denigrate your existence and way of life? Why would that make one close minded? You have finite amount of time, resources, and mental energy to devote to the content you engage with. Why spend it on content that you consider antagonistic, toxic, and stress-indiucing?
I’m right there with you. Gatwa is quickly growing as one of my favorite doctors. His charisma and chemistry with Millie are off the charts.
31·5 months agoChange your shit asap. Anyone who has access to it can theoretically auth as you on any site or product that uses that 2fa setup. They would still need to have your underlying credentials that would initiate the 2fa protocol exchange anyway, but if they have access to your underlying 2fa secret, its not too far fetched to believe they may have other credentials potentially, depending on how you’ve secured the access and where you store your credentials. To be safe and not paranoid, it’s best to just do a root trust rotation and cycle the underlying auth creds
Often it’s the ones that only take a second or a minute and minimal effort that get put off the longest and create most anxiety. I was discussing this with a friend last night: I’ve had numerous non-ADHD people explain to me how I just need to create a task list, not realizing that 1: I know all the shit I have to do…I’m just…waiting…, and 2. When I do try to set up lists and organizational systems, I get sucked into a false productivity hole and spend an inordinate amount of time on the process/list/automation crap, and then when it’s perfectly set up, I maybe use it for a week but inevitably revert back to the chaos
A few minutes away from the world record of not blinking. Haven’t attempted since I was a teen though

My friend, that all sounds lovely to me. Don’t fall trap to societal (and especially capitalistic) definitions of achievement and mediocrity that demand a constant stream of more more more. It’s ok to be content and enjoy the simple pleasures in life.
That being said, if you’re unhappy, get after it. You mention wanting to play Baldurs Gate but feeling guilty about lack of partner time and fear of getting sucked into it for hours: what if you both dedicate a personal hobby night once a week where you can both do whatever and get lost in your own worlds separately without guilt? My partner and I recently started doing this on Fridays and it’s been a game changer.
Mo’ paralysis demons fo’ me!
Have you ever had sleep paralysis? The combo of severe evil presence and severely constricting environment/feeling at often tied with sleep paralysis and have some correlation with dyspnea in real life while you’re dreaming
Comparison is the thief of joy. Don’t despair because you’re not following along an imaginary and self/societaly imposed “progress”/“achievement” path. You are still so very young and have endless possibilities in front of you. Take things at your own pace, learn new things for the sake of learning, and seek to better yourself incrementally as appropriate. Life will fall into place
Ignoring cost/complexity/drift questions, you should always have your dev environments reflect prod as close as possible, however you set that up
All fair points.
100% agreed. But sales people gotta sell so you end up with “solutions” that create the problem they’re claiming to solve in the first place
A properly architected and implemented microservice architecture optimizes work throughput while minimizing risk. In practice its architecting in such a way that no part can take down the whole individually - the very opposite of a monolith where everything is inseparably interdependent at some level.
Problem is, most organizations don’t know how to properly architect for and integrate microservice architectures into their environments and work process. Most think that a crew of former sysadmins can just spin up a few saas services, slap some autoscaling on it if they’re feeling spicy, segment along traditional monolith “frontend/backend” lines for “security,” and call it a day. They then spend time and money learning and/or fighting this system, only to see minimal (if any) improvement in work capacity/quality and instead end up with an outsized cloud bill.
Going through a breakup after a 7 year relationship in my early 30s which turned my life upside down (but ultimately led me to where I am now).
Right after I became homeless, went in and out of the hospital, went through a dark period as an active drug abuser and addict, walked out on an established, high paying profession and career, moved 1200 miles away from a city I loved, gave up on humanity and myself…etc.
But ultimately I see now that as hard as that period was, it got me to where I am today, and I would do it all over again to be where I am now: married to my best friend, father to the brightest, most joyful baby in the whole world, hitting my stride as a trusted advisor and recognized leader in an entirely different career field, living in a place I adore, in my own house that im fortunate enough to be able to afford all by myself, making art, music, and delicious food every single day, and most of all having faith in myself as an individual for the first time ever.
That experience, as dark as it was, taught me that not only can I survive anything that doesn’t actually kill me physically, but I can thrive in any environment and circumstance if I so choose.
Oh noooo…anyway
