I’ve even made little scripts to beautify and parse the output into metrics it’s so fun haha
We are not alone…
It’s about the journey not the destination.
Journey before pancakes, gancho
All of those pretty colors and magical words 😍✨
I have the suspicion that many LGBTQ-people are more inclined to colorfulness than non-LGBTQ-people.
How else will you know it’s working while you’re away?

Gotta spread the love, mate.
Not only home server… this gif is 50% of my job description.
When I had a ceph cluster setup with a star network of routed gigabit connections between servers I was giddy with excitement watching the throughput, and even more excited when I spotted one of the cables was bad and only able to pass traffic in one direction but the routing protocol still used the available bandwidth and work around the bad link in the opposite direction.
I miss my server full of garbage scripts that i lost hours writing to use once and forget about it
Honestly it’s like video game credits. You built a complex system and it worked… bask in your achievements!
This is me, watching my model train and watching the loss go down at every epoch.
Oh, train is a verb not a noun here! I thought you meant a toy train set, and was very confused for a moment
Oh!! Haha I didn’t realize that until I read it again 😅 That’s a confusing sentence if you read it the other way. I wonder if there’s a name for sentences that change meaning as you read/hear the later part of the sentence.
They’re sometimes called garden path sentences because they lead you up the garden path. Some more examples: https://www.apartmenttherapy.com/garden-sentences-262915
Me too! We’re witnessing a change in language, here
Achievement unlocked: management
Nailed it. I think about this a lot: a sysadmin is basically a manager of dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of computers. But management is a poor way of orchestrating human labor; small teams usually operate better without management. So, is there a better way to administer computer systems as well?
Since computers, unlike humans, lack intuition, I doubt that computers could organise themselves. So there probably always has to be a sysadmin, even if the sysadmin is a computer themself.
Span of control is always an issue. There’s a reason why it varies heavily from team/org.
That’s a really interesting question, I don’t know what that might look like.
As a biochemist, my brain naturally goes to the different hierarchical levels of increasing complexity in life. Like how eukaryotic amoebas are freed from some of the challenges that constrain bacteria (mitochondria really are awesome), and how similarly, the complexity ceiling is much higher for multicellular life than unicellular life.
I just think a systems view of stuff is neat, and it’s cool to see how modularisation, coupling and specialisation work together
This is the best part when you finish setting up your server. I was so happy when I can access my backup files and my media server I want to setup Home Assistant one day for a local, private smart home
