Mentally starting to feel a bit "greybeard". This may just be an excuse to be grumpy about things that annoy me.
Finding myself alarmed at most online trends, more alarmed by how rapidly people find them new normal.
Gave up on all traditional social media some time ago, feel significantly better for it.

Wow, I made a real n00b mistake during a #PostgreSQL upgrade - didn't shut down all the applications using it (hello #mastodon). As a result the restore was not fully successful (rows were inserted after table creation but before constraints/sequences were added resulting in duplicate keys). Second time was the charm.

Sent a potentially CLM email. CLM is my personal acronym for "Career Limiting Move", which is in turn a euphemism for "telling an idiot colleague how you really feel".
Who knew that the hardest part of the SDLC was simply organising meetings?
A friend asked me if I knew any good web designers and I said “Tim Berners-Lee” and now they aren’t talking to me anymore.
In the light of the #keybase debacle, I decided to take another look at matrix/synapse/homeserver.
Documentation and setup is possibly worse than it was last time I looked. Those folks would do with to spend some serious time on their documentation and setup tools.
