This was exactly the problem in my last environment. I was the second dev and two more were onboarded after me, but everyone had issues replicating the original dev’s local environment in order to deploy.

First thing I did was set up a basic gitops pipeline. Worked like a charm.

In addition to this I like YAGNI: you ain’t gonna need it

Don’t implement features you don’t need because you think it might/could/should be useful in the future. YAGNI

They’ll call it a “fair use policy” and the exact limits are secret

That’s not true. Apple does not have a master key for iPhones. IIRC the FBI wanted Apple to help by providing custom firmware that allowed them to do unlimited attempts on the passcode.

Your “neural configuration” is the reason you weren’t promoted?

I think you fit right in.

Using network storage to store your swapfile is one of the… um, more interesting ideas I’ve heard today

Agreed. Everything in Linux is a file so let’s keep it that way.

find “$(echo $HOME > variable_holder.txt && cat variable_holder.txt)/$(cat alphabet.txt | grep “d”) $(cat alphabet.txt | grep “o”)$(cat alphabet.txt | grep “c”)$(cat alphabet.txt | grep “s”)”

This is the easiest method

Oof, that’s a very obvious sign they do not understand how IPv6 is supposed to work. At all.

The 80-20 rule is for everything. Don’t waste 80% of effort to get that last 20% of coverage.
