Long week. Production change schedule changed, even when the systems are just collectors with read only. Night time work is rough

Finished some modules today. Wrote some automation for my Citrix team. Main reason was to enable Virtualization based security and nesting on new Citrix boxes. Really head scratching due to the older modules being 5 years old. #powershell #vmware

I’ve been using OpenSSL a lot lately. Throughout using it, I’ve been impressed with its ability to manage certs. #openssl #tech

My ass is on here

Stuck in STL on a business trip. Lots of iDRAC work to get done this week. #dell

When people bash on the south but we have some awesome hiking spots. #southcarolina

This baffles me lol

Ugh I miss the sounds

Went through the loss of my grandmother this week. After 86 years, it’s easy to celebrate such a long life. Our family has always been a bit more understanding of death but it was still a rough week.

Kiddo and I about to rule world. Stay tuned.

This has been such a unique experience of government interactions with tech. From an anthropology standpoint, it’s neat. IRL? It sucks

This is so cool but holy fuck, Gizmodo is so ad infested

We just finally pushed 11 out. Glad to see this.

18’s battery drain issues were really bad for me

Little shit decided to eat bleach and is now barfing blood. Vet fixed it and now we just gotta recover. What a day and what a bill. #cats

One death? I wonder what the patients health was because they could have been immunocompromised or something else

Got Aria up and running at work. Moving out of vROPs but it really is mostly the same. The UI is super nice and I like the K8 integration. #vmware #broadcom #k8

I’m getting really really tired of OpenShift lately. #RHEL

Reading Dune Messiah with this goober.

I’ve been on a massive reading kick, so I bought a kindle to attempt to cut down on my paper use. I despise Amazon but going back to its book roots feels somewhat of a lesser evil.

I’m gonna try to take my wife to see it!

This is really really accurate. People complain about us having to tap into India and such for talent but then get pissed when we talk about college debt relief. I despise the fact that we pull talent from other countries without touching our talent first.

Looks pretty!

No. It’s not used in most enterprise environments. Learning Linux is still extremely valuable in a server setting and it’s not going anywhere

Did you give it a hug

Holidays have been busy. Not so much at work due to downtime and PTO but we get to see our family in Tennessee as well. Not looking forward to a 6 hour drive but I got myself a new kindle to help ><

That all sounds reasonable

Thank you for the info, I’ll take a look.
