Hey VirusNewbie, thank you for your response! A few more questions if you don't mind.

Did you read the SRE handbook before applying?

How do you decide who gets alerts (or are devs never on call)?

Persona do not seem to be competent guardians of such a trove of private information.

I initially thought this was by David Beazley, the python/rust guy.

Linking to a screenshot posted on twitter is a terrible way to share code.

Unrelated to the article, and I can't seem to reply to the comment, but clicking on the archive.today link while I'm on holiday in Italy gives me a warning that it contains child pornography.

When managing large numbers of Dell rack mounted servers, a flea power drain is something you become very familiar with.

Unless you have some information you're not sharing, this is a pretty horrible thing to say.

Worked for a company that Citrix acquired a few years ago. They seemed to have went all in on something called Kepner-Tregoe. I left shortly after my week long training course, which I didn't get much out of other than a stay in a nice hotel. As I was leaving they were downsizing and one of their techniques was to match 2 people together and say "We will be comparing your performance against each other for the next 6 weeks, after that, the worst performer will be fired". Pretty awful.

I had a Ship of Theseus moment after getting my laptop repaired by Apple. They pretty much had to replace everything except for the bottom case, so when I went to sign in with my apple id I got a message saying "we have sent a message to your other device". But there was no other device. Took over a month to resolve and I also kept getting the annoying pop up message asking me to check the ID.

Sounds the same as what Dell call a flea power drain.

Been a while since I read both books, but other than a vaguely similar shape, what makes the Affront clearly a juvenile version of the dwellers? I read the wiki you mentioned and there is a story suggesting an early version of contact rescued them from dweller hunts, but no mention of where this idea came from. I'm a huge fan and believe I have read everything Banks has written and do not recall the story.
