1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Lol this is America, it's not how it's done anymore...or better yet, how it should be done

 

Red rolla should be gone soon..



then $$$ for the taco. Noice

my other flip is hopefully going to be gone soon too.

 

Do you have a used car dealer license for all these transactions are do you just not put them in your name when you buy them?

 

I can sell up to 7 a year legally. I put them in my name. Title hopping is not something I want to do, because that’s just an easy one way ticket to pointless jail time

I have contemplated a dealer license if I find some commercial property.

 

Old software that was well written has a real staying power. When I was at the railroad, the project management system we used was a custom piece of Delphi with IBM DB2 as a backend. It looked awful, but it was extremely functional. At another level, the company was still using an AS/400 for all of the scheduling - and the people who used it the most were doing it on a text terminal because it was faster than the web based interface that had been added on later. Replacing either of those with 'new' software is going to be absurdly expensive.

Software dev these days feels like its in a weird place. A lot of the tools are awesome, but the languages are so web dependent that it can be super fragile (web languages in particular - but even systems languages). Add on top of that the hell that is information security and its a nightmare. We're in the process of building a linux system that customers will deploy by the hundreds on their own isolated networks - but also need to be updateable at the drop of a hat because of cyber security concerns. Its maddening.

I miss my microcontrollers

 

Come to think of it I've never bought a car from someone whose title was in their name, always just a signature from the previous owner where they should have signed and the rest blank

 

Yea... that’s illegal. lol

 

@Empty_Lord what brand of wheel bearing would you recommend for the front spindles on our truck?

 

He's a real straight shooter with upper management written all over

Leveraging paradigm shifts to promote intrinsic synergies in the business and fulfill customer needs at scale while still promoting our core values is a best practice method of making hay.

 

Get this man an expense account!!

 

I’m having a hard time fighting the urge to buy a nice rust free 1st gen out here in Cali. I knew the quality out here was nice, but some of these trucks look brand new underneath.

 

Don't fight it. Just do it



- Nike, probably

 

That's a classic

 

@Wulf did you see my previous post that I tagged you in? Just a general inquiry question

 

For sure. There were a bunch of AS400 shops that were still running RGP3 a few years ago. Just set a couple of indicators and you had a program. Actually, RPG2 was my 2nd language. AS400/RPG3 programmers were commanding $250 per hour during y2K. You just can't get those people today.

Have you guys looked into Ansible Playbooks for task automation? It seems to be growing fast.
