skipdogg posted:True, but it can be useful for spotting trends. I didn't apply for a job at a local company because of multiple reviews on Glassdoor all saying the IT department was poorly run and an afterthought in the company instead of a valued business partner. I probably wouldn't decide to interview or not interview at a company based on Glassdoor reviews unless something smelled really wrong, but it would certainly clue me in to a list of things to watch for and ask about during the interview.

Having spent a lot of time there, literally every town in Wyoming except maybe Jackson Hole (ironically) is a shithole, hth. It's an absolutely gorgeous state and fun to go camping in but I have noooooo interest in living there. Colorado owns, though. I'm currently battling depression from moving away from there back to Boston so my daughter can grow up knowing her grandparents/cousins. If you have some ~DevOps~ / cloud skills you will have zero trouble landing work in the Denver area. The talent pool is shockingly shallow out there and I had recruiters beating down my door daily as a mid-level Linux dude. Docjowles fucked around with this message at 02:15 on Dec 5, 2015 |

I couldn't use the slickdeals link because the redirects got pi-holed (I guess), so just go here: https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/visual-studio-dev-essentials-vs.aspx Sign up for Visual Studio Dev Essentials (free, login with MS account) Click link to activate Pluralsight 6 months. It says available until December 31 or while supplies last, "with 3 months available thereafter". No credit card or anything more than name/email address (and I guess MS account) needed anywhere.

Virigoth posted:No change Friday is for real. Don't commit, promote, tweak, reboot, adjust rules, etc. I replaced our firewalls and VPN at two separate sites last night at 7:30 and am currently on a plane across the country to do our DR site. About 2min total downtime for our primary application; hell yeah for planning and testing and testing and testing. Still felt like a roll of the dice given a vendor change of firewalls, and in the middle of a weekend where an hour of downtime was my max - but the flight was booked on a non-refundable ticket before they scheduled the work projects for this weekend so whatever. Generally though - yes - read only Friday for sure.

psydude posted:Friday night is like THE night for change windows for most of my customers. I like to change poo poo on Thursdays. That way if we missed something that only the users would figure out, we find out about it on Friday, and if it's a truly critical problem that will take a while to solve, well, good, we have the weekend to solve it or roll back. Changing on the weekend for Monday rollouts seems very stressful because Mondays are generally busy anyway with people catching up on weekend work, so they're extra annoyed if something doesn't work (whereas generally on Friday if something's broken no one gives a poo poo because hell you just helped them start their weekend early).

Yeah, but when you live downtown you never drive. My wife and I have put maybe 1,500 miles, if that, on our car this year. We sometimes go weeks without driving.

I live and work downtown and don't have a car, mostly because I don't want to pay $250/mo for parking. Which is great since I've barely ever driven, get stressed out driving in the city and don't have to worry about driving drunk this way. Public transit, the occasional Lyft and very infrequent Zipcar/rentals cover 99% of my needs. (the other 1% is going down to San Jose on weekends but seriously gently caress that place)

I'm studying for my CCENT, and I'm having problems telnetting. I'm following an instructional video. I went into configure terminal, vty 0 4, password cisco, login, and then exit out to save the configuration. Then I go into the PC, command line, telnet <ip>. It says it opens it up, but then says closed by foreign host. What could be messed up to cause that?
