Are you sure there is no ticket? Some systems let you make tickets that the end user is not notified for. Also, depending on the size/ levels of automation your call may have populated all your info on the agents end.

Depending on the help desk they probably knew it was you. Did you call from a phone HR knows about? If it was a walk up, did they make the ticket before or after resetting your MFA?

It's not. Simple reality is your going to end up in help desk (you might end up in a SNOC or related but ultimately I'd advise help desk just so you learn some real world ops). Security, like it's engineering counterparts is not something you can do with zero experience in the industry. The two hardest job interviews you will ever have in the general it industry are getting into help desk, and getting out of help desk.

I use it a fair bit. Mind, it's something like formating a giant json stdout into something I want to read...

I also do find it's useful for sketching out an outline In pseudo code.

Just to give an outsider perspective to anyone reading this. I live in the Seattle Metro, have worked for Microsoft, and now work at a unicorn. I have a list of skill and experience that any ops department would drool over. Amazon is is one of the companies I won't even apply to unless I'm desperate for a job (and even then I'm not planning to stay).

And I know I'm not the only one.

We need less entertainment that runs forever and more that has a plan for how long it should be.

In this case it ran as long as it was feasible, then a little longer and then they where done.

Which veggie dog worked for you? I can't find one that grills correctly.

I'm in a similar boat. Flew across the country because after "missing" 2017s I immediately felt regret. Now I'm debating Europe in 2026.

But the colors. Can someone who understands this stuff please explain to me why a simple reduction in light in the lead up to (and following) totality makes all the colors seem "wrong"?

Id say if it's in your budget - get one. We have no other apple products in the house but that. The biggest annoyance was making an apple account (for some stupid reason they require it...)

+1. We are a household of sysadmins/engineers. Sure I or my wife could design a PC for media in an afternoon - but I don't want to deal with it.

An apple TV was a no fuss, no headache media box that can interface with the servers that store my media.

That's the scary thing. It looks like this narrowly missed getting into Debian and RH. Downstream downstream that is... everything.
