Posts in "Memes"

Amusing that find myself in a position where I have to log into one password manager to get the password to log into another password manager to get a password.

The yo dawg meme with the caption: Yo Dawg heard you like passwords for your passwords, so we added a password for your passwords for your passwords.

Smack bang in the middle of the automation smiling curve for my current task. 😩

A meme  depicting a smiling curve graph illustrates the relationship between problem size and satisfaction. The left size says 'Job really small. I'll just do it manually.' The right size says 'Argh, too big. I better automate.' In the centre is an arrow pointing to the lowest point on the curve with the annotation 'Automate half the job, but then realise it's probably quicker to just finish it manually.'

I made a different version of this image earlier today. Glad I found the discipline to do what needed to be done, giving me the opportunity to change it to this:

Auto-generated description: A mock-up of a reminder for a tax return due on 24 September 2024, with options to Mark Complete or Snooze, with a mouse cursor hovering over the Mark Complete option, giving the sense that the user will click it.

Surprising how much of working with TLS certificates is just dealing with PEM files.

A meme of a blackboard with the heading 'Things for today', then the items '1/ Decode from PEM', '2/ Encode to PEM', '3/ Decode from PEM', '4/ Encode to PEM' written in white chalk. The first two items are crossed off.

So, this is how my morning went.

A drawing of a Git commit tree showing a successful merge of Y with a green CI/CD run, a few commits of me making changes to a branch over the course of 2 days, then eight commits with a few minutes between each one with each one having a red CI/CD run. The commit messages suggest that each one was an attempt to fix the CI/CD problems of the previous one.

Apologies to my reviewers for all the notification emails they’re receiving during this battle with the CI/CD build.
