  • that’s with the assumption that the smallest increment was used every time

    I sometimes increment things by adding the next decimal place

    note: I am not a developer, just a dude making tools at work. but I somehow always end up incrementing something now and then from 1.21 to 1.211 because I wanted to avoid the “1.21 new actually newest” situation and bumping to 1.22 didn’t make sense. it’s like temporary versioning for me, WIP files

  • Oh I absolutely think that our IT should be handling this, but that is a weak point at our company (just big enough to use an external company).

    I’ve done my time as tech support for this company, I’m not doing that shit anymore.

    and regardless of group policies being able to handle this, this shouldn’t be reinstalled anyways if I’ve already uninstalled it.

  • there is a ton of shadow banning going on too I think, just completely discouraging for new real users

    though they have identified me and my main devices and IP, I have created accounts on unrelated devices in an unrelated location and still been unable to make posts successfully. yes, they make show up to my user logged in, but not to anyone else

  • how does flaking out present itself?

    I had an issue for a long time where the pihole seemed to be bricking the network, and combined with the Eero mesh it was a pain to bring back online each time due to order of operations restarting devices and enabling/disabling DNS on the router

  • we dealt with similar stuff at our company as the design team grew. amazing how far simple systems can get you with basic practices and common sense.

    now with triple the team size and a few less than extremely competent people, we have tons of file management issues, even though there are more processes in place to avoid them. I hate it.
