Ugh this just reminded me that I ran into this exact issue a couple years ago. We were running jobs every hour to ingest data from an API into our data warehouse. Eventually we got reports from users about having gaps in our data. We dug into it for days trying to find a pattern, but couldn’t pinpoint anything. We were just missing random pieces of data, but our jobs never reported any failures.

Eventually we were able to determine the issue. HTTP 200 with “error: true” in the response. Fml

The not shitting guy came before the beans. The beans were mindless. The not shitting guy was an enigma.

What’s that watermark in the bottom right?

How many story points is it to get to 2nd base?

Maybe I’m in the minority here, but I’ve been in Lemmy for almost 2 years since the API migration, and I don’t know if I’ve ever encountered a tankie, despite seeing hundreds of memes about them.

I’m guessing my instance just doesn’t federate with the same weird shit y’all are seeing?

Depending on the language, that might only sleep for 10 milliseconds, outing you as bot for sure.

The whole thing was pretty damn good all the way through. The only thing that had me wondering was

Until it got to

Well played.

And at those BBQs, they’re gonna fix you a bomb ass plate of some awesome meat that they’ve been working on for hours.

Dirty ass, probably.

At least he had the good sense to hit the ENTER key before he passed.

Isn’t it crazy that basically every election at this point is basically like:

• Option 1) We keep the status quo, nothing really changes.
• Option 2) We burn it all down to the ground. Not to rebuild something better, but just for the hell of it.

I think the thing that’s catching you up the most is that you’re assuming Elon has the slightest clue what he’s talking about about. In your mind, you’ve read the words “the social security database” from his post and have made assumptions about what that means.

I’ve worked with databases for 20+ years, several of those being years working on federal government systems. Each agency has dozens or possibly hundreds of databases all used for different purposes. Saying “the social security database” is so fucking general that it’s basically nonsensical. It’d be like saying “Ford’s car database”.

Elon clearly heard someone technical talking about something, then misinterpreted it for his own purposes to justify what he is doing by destroying our government institutions. His follow up of saying the government doesn’t use SQL just reinforces that point.

Trying to logically backtrack into what he actually meant - and what the primary keys should be - is just sane washing an insane statement.

JFC is their moto seriously “The people voted for major reform”? First, they barely won and are acting like there was some monumental landslide victory.

Second, none of what they’re doing is actually what they campaigned on. Trump actually tried to distance himself as much as possible from Project 2025 during the campaign.

Give me the…couch

Found JD Vance’s Lemmy account

Lol why is this marked NSFW?

And asked me if I needed a ride!

A large difference, but they also somehow end up in the same place at the end.

Lol had never seen that before, but Jesus Christ that is a painful depiction of my life.

It’s kind of funny, but we all do this to some extent. I used to think most people on Reddit were super smart. If someone says stuff with authority, then it’s easy to believe what they’re saying and assume they know what they’re talking about.

But then every once in a while, I’d come across a topic that I know deeply about - and the comment would just be blatantly wrong, but still have tons of up votes. It really made me start second guessing all the other comments I had read and thought were smart, but it’s an easy trap to fall into.

I guess what I’m really saying, is that you all are a bunch of morons, probably.
