  • Ok, I’ll go search for your other comment

    Edit: I’m still not sure how the US supporting Israel is making Russia attack Ukraine or how that should be connected - obviously, geopolitical everything is somehow connected, but not causal

    Edit 2: I’m absolutely not in favour of US backing Israel (or their fucking imperial capitalism), but do you want to say, that Russia had no other choice or…?
    I do know this sounds foolish, but I’m currently really struggling to make sense of what you want to say



  • Happens to everyone

    Just having a multitude of terminals open with a mix of test environment and (just for comparison) an open connection to the production servers…

    We were at a fair/exhibition once and on the first day people working on an actual customer project asked us, if they could compare with our code.
    Obviously they flashed the wrong PLC and we were stuck dead at the first hours of the exhibition.
    I still think that this place was cursed, as we also had to do multiple re-soldering of some connections of our robot and the sherry on top was the system flash dying - where I had fucked up, because I just finished everything late at night and didn’t made a complete backup of everything.
    But it seems, if luck runs out, you lose on all fronts.

    At least I was able to restore everything in 20mins. Which must be some kind of record.
    But I was shaking so much from the stress, that I couldn’t efficiently type anymore and was lucky to have a colleague to just calmly enter what I told him to and with that we’re able to get the show case up and running again.

    Well, at least the beer afterwards tasted like the liquid of the gods












  • Yeah, I’m having a hard time deciding about that.

    On the one hand I’m often in business trips and want to be at least able to recover my data easily if something happens.

    On the other hand getting the laptop stolen with all the data is a nightmare.

    Didn’t look into current solutions for quite some time though. As I’m currently waiting for a new laptop, this could be a good time to check something out.
    Anyone with some suggestions? (Will look into the encrypted FS OP recommended, but having options and opinions never hurts)

    Edit: ok, just realised that APFS is Apple File System. So that’s not gonna roll for me, as I’m on Linux and would like to have something that’s actually designed and developed for it. Don’t know anything about Linux APFS support, but I’m a bit traumatised by NTFS and anyway I don’t want to have anything to do with Apple

    Anyone with experience with encrypted LUKS and data recovery?
    Some buzzwords for options would also greatly help me
    Thanks for anything in advance!

    I think, I worded it wrong

    Testing exactly for the results you expect is a good start to verify functionality, but you also need tests, that can bring up whatever, so you get a better view of the risk profile

    But I’m not a pharmacist, so I’m just taking out of my ass anyway

    Yeah, if I test my software all is good as well. As soon as the customer does something, he finds bugs, because I didn’t thought about that situation.

    As the drug user in the end isn’t qualified enough, they should exactly test like that and not just what they think is right

    But maybe my analogy isn’t completely working in that case…
