That’s actually the area I currently work in, though not banking specifically. We do financial software for small governments. All the software was written in the 80s and 90s and we’re babying it along well into the 2030s in all likelihood. Those old systems require very specific environments which we’re now trying to emulate in the cloud. It’s fairly specific at the end of the day. And because this small government segment is currently undergoing consolidation I know what we see is the norm.

Thankfully I just have to maintain the cloud infrastructure and making it as reliable and secure as possible.

I don’t like living in the future as much as young me thought I would.

I would say you can’t separate the two. It’s a natural extension of Gall’s Law, the simple system that works is the stack.

You know when users complain about the lingering bugs, unexpected slow downs, and slow delivery of new features caused by tech debt (even though they don’t know that). That’s them caring about your stack, whether they know it or not.

Everything backs up to a Synology diskstation (with disk redundancy). The Syno’s Hyperbackup makes backups of critical stuff stuff to the cloud weekly. In the case of my self-hosted stuff, it’s mostly the share storage where all my docker volumes map to. Also workstation backsups, home assistant backups, phone photos, etc.

A back up of the temporally replaceable stuff (everything not covered above) which is hosted from the Diskstation, is made to an external drive a few times a year and stored off-site the rest of the time. This isn’t 3-2-1, but its close enough for my needs.

Perfect domain for a shitcoin.

So MAGA controlled software is all going to be full of security holes and none of their coders will really understand how it works (when it works). I’m sure this won’t come up later as groups are looking for ways to take them down.

Podcasts being audio only was pretty brief. The first video podcasts were released months in advance of the iPod video. That’s how I learned everything I needed to know from Ask a Ninja ca. 2005.

“Terrible” is just for attention, but the bit of news that would have cratered any other company’s stock it that it’s down 71% YOY. Plus:

Regulatory Credits: $2.8 billion of profit came from selling regulatory credits, not from core business activities.

People in the current administration have said they plan to end these credits in the coming months. Without them in 2024 Tesla would have reported a $500million loss for the year.

Certainly! Let me ignore half the details in your prompt and suggest a course of action for v2 of this package even though you said it was version 15.

I’m sorry that isn’t working for you. Here are the troubleshooting steps for a Samsung convection oven that went out of production in 2018.

You are correct, your question did not involve baking tips, here’s that same course of action from v2 of this software package.
