I like to give servers a little pep talk while I build them. "Who's the best server! Who's the fastest server!"
@codinghorror Does not work with servers at restaurants.
@codinghorror sc-web-02 was always my favourite. Never let us down, not like sc-web-05. Bad server! //cc @artificialgold
@codinghorror I do this with switches. "You can push those packets."
@codinghorror But then there's always one server that replies, "I'm going to lose anyways. You can count me out."
@codinghorror wish I could say the same while development, but how would bugs feel then!
@codinghorror continuing in cooing voice: "Not you, no you're just a little VM I'm starving for memory and disk space,you are."
@codinghorror My ritual is to cut myself on some sharp edge, sacrificing some blood to the god of cheap cases. #pcbuilder
@codinghorror “Ramses is number one” youtu.be/B-7foxHfhE4
@codinghorror I've been kicked out of some great restaurants for doing that.
