  • You could most likely find some damn spicy contracts. The real question is, is it worth it?

    You’re going to retrofit some old code to fix an upcoming date bug, or try to make some changes wrapped around security vulnerabilities. But these systems we’re relying on, they’re in banks, air traffic control, and in hospitals, we’re not just depending on these boxes but critically depending on these boxes. There’s almost nobody sitting around to give you a second set of eyes on the code, probably almost nobody capable of doing proper QA on the systems you’re working on.


  • What all they said about the reset, also Amber light on a Dell could be anything out of the ordinary. Only have one out of two power supplies plugged in? Messed up network config, bad fan, missing discs, bad disc. You name it, it’ll throw amber.

    If you really don’t want to reset it, throw it on a switch with another device and run Wireshark, You’ll see it’s a source IP while it’s looking for its long lost network. Course that’s still not likely to help you if you don’t have logins


  • I went from Fitbit to Withings, that Fitbit scale was nothing but pain. Every time my battery started getting low it would disconnect from Wi-Fi and I have to re pair it. It was inconsistent, If you pick it up and move it a foot to the left you get a completely different reading than if you just leave it where it sits. Because of the messed up fluctuations, It constantly identified the wrong person in the house.

    Had the Withings scale for 4 years now and it’s just been fine.
