"DevOps" is bullshit
Automate everything and talk to people. Incredible technology.
Those who email images of PuTTY sessions will be shot.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
Live the defaults. Love the defaults.
Do less to do more do less.
Use the infrastructure
Stop writing code and put your shit in a database. Where it belongs.
Keep ltrace far away from Java.
It didn't work last time. It's not going to work this time.
Thou shalt always check last mod times.
You sure that's the right file?
It's not DNS.
Use dig. nslookup is for small children and Senior Developers.
Check the indexes
"Hey, why's my database so slow?" - Every idiot with no indexes ever.
