Ever thought "12:30 AM on a Monday is a perfect time to test something in production, and I'll just roll it back if it doesn't work and then go to bed", and then the rollback doesn't work, and you can't go to bed.... 😭

"407 tolls are functionally a tax on living in the suburbs." Are you trying to sell me on toll increases? Because now I want toll increases.

It recently occurred to me that I'm almost 40, have been working in IT for the better part of 2 decades, and I still have never actually purchased a computer for my own personal use.

When you solve for the wrong problem, not only do you not get the solution, you can cause harm. The President wasted water that was being saved for farmers for a PR stunt. This was harmful, ludicrous, and solved nothing.

I have to say, I love the Windows App. I love that I can easily access a smooth Windows desktop environment on my corporate Azure network through the browser on my Linux computer. Incredibly convenient. #Windows #Linux #WindowsApp

To my fellow InfoSec people in Canada: we have long been aware of and worked to protect against Russian and Chinese threats, and been cautious when dealing with their products. Anyone else starting to have concerns about the Americans now? #InfoSec #Canada #USA

I was never much of a gamer, but now I game a lot with my son on a system running openSUSE. It runs Steam so that whole world is available, but tbh, we mostly play SuperTuxKart, because it's great fun, and gives me the chance to teach how Konqi, Geeko, and Tux work together!

fascinated by a rhetorical strategy i see all the time now, which is making up an extreme edge case to argue against doing anything for the public good, and doing this from the putative left.

Late last year, a girl was killed while she was riding a bicycle across a marked crossing. Multiuse paths are common in Ontario suburbs, but theyvneed to be improved for safety. (From November 2024) seanmarshall.ca/2024/11/25/c...
