Gosh, I am still so creeped out this morning. >.< Much, much better than yesterday, but ugh. >.<

For the record, I'm home and safe, and friends are coming over to give me some hugs, but yeesh. >.<

Blargh. Today is just not going to be a good day. >.< Brain just won't let up. >.<

Working from home today, but I still feel completely and utterly trashed. >.<

Argh. I had a horrible panic attack last night and had to take my emergency meds. Glad I have those. >.<

Gave me a lot of hope that at least some people actually understand.

I'm sure a few of you saw the nasty crap that someone at Google wrote the other day.

As Violet Blue put it on twitter:
Outstanding response to the anti-female techie manifesto from a former senior Googler. It's a must read: https://medium.com/@yonatanzunger/so-about-this-googlers-manifesto-1e3773ed1788

Dakota headed out a couple hours ago. Missing her already and she's just barely left. :(

Don't get me wrong, I'm super excited for her, and really really love her, but this is fucking hard. >.< We've lived together for almost three years now. >.<

Suuuuuper tired and bummed that Dakota is leaving for school. >.< Just hit me this morning finally, when puppy looked at me and I realized I wasn't going to see her bright eyes in the morning anymore. >.<

About 15 minutes in, it goes completely fucking bonkers. :D

I love this fucking game. :D Best replay I've seen in a long while! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuYCVP6rxw0

I have these bloody things in 5 locations around the world ranging from China to Hungary, and because they keep passing packets, until I checked the switches themselves, I had no idea of the failure condition. D:

(And no, we weren't looking at SNMP since they were used as fairly dumb access switches, but holy shit am I implementing that now for anything in the future!)

PSA: Linksys LGS552 switches are steaming piles of shit. 11/17 failed in about 12 months, and some of those switches have only been installed for a couple months.

Something silently corrupts their firmware, or they fail outright. They keep passing packets until rebooted, but the management CPU is toast.

I discovered this accidentally today while troubleshooting something else, then checked a few switches and freaked out. D:

This is the most powerful essay I've read in *years*.

"Creationists don't build starships."

These are the latter days of a better nation.
