What Are You Doing Right Now
-
I can't take it. How many things wrong in a single post?
- Stating a solution without a problem to solve. Didn't think at the goal level or even reasonably approximate it. Basic misunderstanding of how to ask someone for help or how to rely information.
- Wants to use a SAN without even knowing what one is. What would make someone want to build and deploy something without even knowing what it would do!!!?!?
- Wants a SAN that is NTFS aware. What does that even mean? By definition, not possible.
- Wants to use Windows for the mistaken reason stated above.
- Wants to use a version of Windows already two releases old and right on the verge of being three.
- Skipping virtualization and wanting to deploy legacy Windows to bare metal.
- RAID 5 on a new spindle-based array.
Ugh. How does someone get so deep into a project before bothering to even look up the Wikipedia entry as to what the terms mean that they are using?!
-
Even after being pointed out that he was doing something crazy, he tried to cover up by claiming that SAN doesn't mean block protocol. He had the predictable fight or flight response and completely fell apart. Definitely a guy who was bluffing and is so bad at IT that he could not even tell what sounded reasonable or not.

I don't let it get to me. It was just so ridiculous I wanted to document it

Just saw a great follow up on a two year old project for RLS that went smoothly:

Nice, not often that people come back and report on that kind of stuff.
-
I suppose, not too often that they take advice either.

Listening to my daughter doing school.

Trying to get away from my desk before band practice starts and I can't hear myself think anymore. Band practice space is on the other side of my office wall. Once @art_of_shred and his buddies get going the walls rattle in here.

Good morning people..
Coffee time

I have excellent (I use that term loosely) Cerveza Panama Light here, a six pack.

Every time I read post in SW that related to "RAID or STORAGE" I was thinking what would be the reaction of Sam if he read this!
HahaAdd up the Getting Degree or go back to school.
-
But I always DO read them. I am pretty sure that I see them all.
-
My kids are taking a shower right now and I can overhear my six year old singing Pitbull in the shower.
-
I feel like SW is having a particularly rough night from the "being weird" camp. One post after another of people doing crazy things.
-
Finally getting some blog posts out. I am SO late on those.
-
And another blog post up. Slowly by surely catching up.
-
I took the on call pager for the evening, so I am more or less tied to my laptop, but that is fine. I did not have any other plans tonight.

@pchiodo and @Bob-Beatty are on the ground here in Panama.
