[00:09] schestowitz A lot of the divested products are workhorses - no longer flashy, or bringing new clients, but used widely enough so that they need updates. I assume that for many of them, the investment is funding 2-5 people to pay attention to vulnerabilities, mailing lists, and integrate pull requests. I also assume that the monthly cost for an OSS developer is less than that of a McK consultant, so they have to make up the difference with higher n [00:09] schestowitz umbers.

But some of this actually makes sense. [00:10] schestowitz RH have a long history in maintaining their own builds of things, for example the JDK or Spring, where they add little in the way of extra capability. This made sense back in the days of yonder where community projects tended to be less concerned with LTS builds. RH added value by maintaining such builds. [00:10] schestowitz OSS projects seem, in my perception, to have become much more mature of late, often maintaining their own LTS builds (corporate sponsorship plays its role here). Inevitably, rolling one's own build therefore accomplishes less. [00:10] schestowitz I think it was a couple of years ago that RH announced that the Temurin JDK build would be fully supported on Openshift, for example. There's a win-win thing here; RH backs, and presumably helps fund, a community-led build, so they don't need to have a separate team themselves. The community gets the sponsorship."

[00:13] DaemonFC Now you see how savage people are when there's nobody to judge them. [00:14] DaemonFC For many years, AIDS was an untreatable, or mostly untreatable disease. [00:15] DaemonFC An AIDS diagnosis typically was followed by a funeral 1-3 years later. [00:15] DaemonFC So on went the condoms, and most STDs collapsed because most people were terrified of AIDS, but some damned degenerates who didn't care they'd die (mostly drug users) still got it.

[00:23] DaemonFC It's the perfect setup. More customers, more product. [00:24] DaemonFC It's like the oil companies saying they'll pump carbon dioxide underground, or the cigarette companies claiming they made a safer cigarette.

[00:26] DaemonFC All my prescriptions are cheap generics. [00:26] DaemonFC We had the talk and she basically said the new expensive drugs don't always work better, and they approve a lot of them so they stay expensive, then throw marketing at it, and we just won't know for years what they really do to people. [00:27] DaemonFC So "living in the past" isn't always a bad idea.

[06:26] DaemonFC So of course the Fed goes in and sees what a can of "soup" costs, and they don't factor in you get half as much meat and veggies when you open the can. [06:27] DaemonFC I may substitute that bag of frozen lima beans in that stew for a can of Great Northern or Red Kidney beans. [06:27] DaemonFC I have a ton of them that "expired" last year. [06:27] DaemonFC But I mean, 6 months on a can of beans? [06:27] DaemonFC Definitely won't hurt you if the can isn't rusted, bulging, swelling, or has major dents. [06:28] DaemonFC If the can looks sketchy or you open it and it blows, then yeah, don't eat that. [06:28] DaemonFC But that's actually a quality date. [06:28] DaemonFC Nothing in the US is required to have an "expiration" on it except baby food. [06:28] DaemonFC The rest is just the manufacturer making up a date. [06:29] DaemonFC I'd be a lot more worried about raw meat than anything else. [06:29] DaemonFC I've eaten bagged salad days later, canned veggies a year or two, cake mixes and frosting two years past the date, and I'm still here.

[21:10] DaemonFC Not glad why. [21:11] DaemonFC But glad that I haven't had to answer what my spirit animal is and which crayon I'd be.

[21:16] DaemonFC [04:33] DaemonFC: because someone pull a gun on you [21:16] DaemonFC Oddly I wasn't even scared of the gun at the time. [21:16] DaemonFC You know how most people start crying and begging for their life or something? [21:16] DaemonFC I just looked at him and felt nothing. [21:17] DaemonFC I stared him in the eyes and he gave me a weird look and then his buddy grabbed my phone and they ran off. They didn't even bother finishing the mugging and taking my wallet and keys. [21:18] DaemonFC I know he's mugged some people before. I don't know how many. [21:18] DaemonFC But I was probably the first one whose eyes said "I don't have time for this and I hate my life anyway, so either shoot me or go away." [21:20] DaemonFC At least I know how I'd react to the possibility of imminent death now. [21:20] DaemonFC I jumped straight to acceptance. [21:21] DaemonFC I'm not afraid of it. It's out there. It will happen some time. It's an end to obligations without fun. You know? [21:22] DaemonFC I've been living with constant suicidal thoughts since I was about 6 years old. [21:23] DaemonFC What 6 year old just has an existential crisis and thinks about killing themselves? Laying there realizing that they're different and nobody in their class likes them, then realizes that if people are this horrid now, they won't get better later? [21:23] DaemonFC Just about every time my parents whipped me with the belt for speaking out of turn or something, they said "Quit crying, if you think this is bad, wait until you piss off a cop someday." [21:25] DaemonFC I was getting the belt at 5, including for things like finding my dad's cigarettes and ripping them up underneath the dining room table "so he wouldn't smoke and smell so bad anymore" and leaving a carton of Camel cigaretted under there broken and torn up for him. [21:25] DaemonFC To reaching for one of his porn magazines and looking at it going "WTF is this?" and then he sees me and his first reaction is to pull off the belt and work me over with it. [21:25] DaemonFC At 5 years old. [21:27] DaemonFC In the mind of a child, "I wish dad would stop smoking so he'd stop smelling so bad." translates to "I'll just go grab his cartons of Camel cigarettes and rip them to shreds under the dining room table and then he won't have any Camel cigarettes and then daddy won't smoke." Nope. He was just pissed and out came the belt. [21:28] DaemonFC Back then I got in trouble for repeating things my dad would say at school sometimes. Well, until I got to the one about Mexicans and lawnmowers. I didn't get in any trouble for that one at all. Everyone laughed. [21:29] DaemonFC I don't know how it came up, but I think I was in second grade and I told my class that my dad used twist ties from the box of garbage bags on the safety bar of his self-propelled lawnmower "Because he said a bunch of dumb Mexicans ran over their feet and now everyone has to suffer." [21:30] DaemonFC I realize that my entire life began as a band-aid on a shitty marriage. [21:30] DaemonFC And I can accept that, finally. [21:31] DaemonFC My parents had nothing in common. They were always yelling at each other. They got revenge on each other in all sorts of petty ways. Then it spiraled out of control and ended in divorce. [21:31] DaemonFC It's like the pilot and the co-pilot struggling to take the plane in different directions, ignoring that maybe what they do is bad for everyone. [21:31] DaemonFC And then they crash in the hills. [21:32] DaemonFC That's what causes MOST marriages to end in divorce, honestly. [21:33] DaemonFC People who have financial means separate as soon as they find out the other one is nuts or definitely the first time one of them hits the other one, or the bigger better deal walks by. [21:33] DaemonFC It's people who are poor as shit that have to work out their differences and say they're sorry and keep this plane up in the air. [21:34] DaemonFC That's why I think I'll be married forever. We don't argue and bicker and fight like my parents do, but even if we did, then the prospect of the plane crashing would be "enough" to scare both of us. It didn't scare my mom because she made enough money to up and leave and forget she had kids. [21:35] DaemonFC Dump one of us off with Grandma, and leave me with my dad, and go off banging an Irish truck driver like a Salvation Army drum while he had "backup refrigerators" full of beer and went through a carton of cigarettes every 2-3 days, on her dime. [21:36] DaemonFC And I had my first mental breakdown about at that point. [21:36] DaemonFC Because I was so furious that I wanted to go up there and kill both of them for the pain and suffering they caused me. [21:36] DaemonFC And while I'm not that mad about it anymore, there's definitely scar tissue there. It still hurts to think about, even this long after. [21:37] DaemonFC I stopped sleeping for weeks. [21:37] DaemonFC I started hallucinating it had been so long without sleep. [21:37] DaemonFC After about three weeks your mind starts playing tricks. You see things that aren't there, you hear things that aren't there. [21:38] DaemonFC The last thing I recall is laughing, and crying, hysterically at something I saw and then falling over on the floor and passing out from lack of sleep. [21:38] DaemonFC I mean, it was bad. [21:39] DaemonFC You can recover from things like this, but it takes a while for everything to reset. [21:42] DaemonFC I liked Rick and Morty, before the PC Nazis got to Justin Roiland. [21:42] DaemonFC "What is my purpose? [21:42] DaemonFC Rick: Pass the butter. [21:42] DaemonFC "Oh my God...."

[21:57] DaemonFC Maybe this is why large corporations are having so many problems. [21:58] DaemonFC "When people feel the need to sneak out for breaks, its a sign that their workplace doesnt have a supportive PTO system or culture in place, Rodney says." [21:58] DaemonFC Yeah, work 40 hours, get an hour off work. ● May 22 [22:04] DaemonFC They don't want people to have any PTO so then they complain about people getting inventive. [22:05] DaemonFC But I think this is awful. That going on vacation is equated to "playing hooky". [22:05] DaemonFC Boomers mostly got two months of vacation every year and took it. [22:05] DaemonFC And now work has become so toxic that if you even take a day you're not a "team player". [22:06] DaemonFC "Bosses can alleviate that tension in a number of ways, she adds: They can be more transparent about what requesting time off looks like, normalize taking PTO by taking time as a boss, support when their employees take off, and mandate a certain amount of time off." [22:07] DaemonFC Yeah, usually what happens is the boss takes two weeks and heads to the timeshare and then they get back all rested and head cleared and if you want a day to go fishing they come find you and ask you to cancel it. [22:08] DaemonFC "Instead, employers can get creative in their PTO benefits, like offering company-wide week-long shutdowns around major holidays, paying new hires to take a vacation before they start, or requiring employees take a certain number of PTO days each quarter to pace their time off throughout the year." [22:08] DaemonFC What they did to me at Walmart was they blacked out all the good days and would NOT let you have them, ever. [22:08] DaemonFC Then if you wanted the time off you had to take it in January in the middle of a snowstorm. [22:09] DaemonFC They had SCO UnixWare terminals at the time. Green screen. [22:09] DaemonFC You had to open the program to select some days and then you'd come back and find out that it had been deleted by your boss. [22:09] DaemonFC Very motivating, you know. [22:10] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR2]: Did I tell you the Unemployment Story? [22:10] DaemonFC They busted me down to 16 hours (from 40) with no warning and they refused to do anything about it, so I filed an unemployment claim. [22:11] DaemonFC The SECOND that the co-manager found out they'd be paying me for 35 hours a week for the next six months regardless of how many hours they had me on the schedule, we "came to an arrangement" where I said "Look, I know that you can give me a second job code. Why don't we take two part time jobs you have here, assign both of them to me, and keep me at full time?" and they did. [22:12] DaemonFC But I knew they wanted rid of me at that point and that sooner or later they'd trump something up. [22:12] DaemonFC So I started applying for another job and working there (full time still) until I had a callback. [22:13] DaemonFC It bought me the few months I needed where I didn't have the managers breathing down my neck trying to starve me out. [22:13] DaemonFC Busting you down to 16 hours and yelling "SURPRISE" probably works with most people they try it one. [22:14] DaemonFC *on [22:14] DaemonFC She tracked me down on the floor and said "What do you mean PARTIAL unemployment?" I said, "Well I am 3/5ths unemployed now...."

A few months later, I found something else and then just ghosted them. [22:23] DaemonFC I came back in to get my last check and my old boss said "You're not my favorite person in the world right now." and then admitted that my department was already pretty messed up without me back there. [22:25] DaemonFC schestowitz[TR2]: So yeah, mistreatment and constant abuse. [22:25] DaemonFC Then they had the audacity to be angry at me for finally being so burned out that I just up and left when it was convenient for me to do so. [22:27] DaemonFC I went back several years later while I was taking some training and then quit again. The second time I was making minimum wage. [22:27] DaemonFC Story of my life.
