They lost a couple of tons of roasting beans...To be fair, it was my boss's fault for not allowing me to sniff the network with the systems at rest.
In a meeting with all the bigwigs at a foreign top secret missile manufacturing HQ while I was troubleshooting a problem there I mentioned that I had sniffed their network. One of the network engineers stood up and shouted "Arrest that man!". I replied "If you like, but I found your problem". They invited me back another time for another issue they were having.
The lesson here, kids, is don't ask for permission first.

@neurovagrant @paco I don't think you can get your sysadmin certification without showing the scars where you dropped tables in production
@webhat As they say: if that first cup of coffee doesn’t wake you up in the morning, try dropping a table in production.

@quinn @neurovagrant someone rm'ing themselves because they gave claude too much access, who self-identifies as a cto, strikes me as one of those "php ceo" types, who does a lot of talking but never really produces stuff or makes anything interesting or worthwhile.
@Viss @quinn @neurovagrant Oh, they produce a lot now. So much. Productive bigly. Lots for others to review.

@neurovagrant In 2005, we had a rookie security consultant doing a penetration test for our client. To demonstrate that the client's app was vulnerable to SQL injection, he ran
drop table users;via injection.Twenty years of progress means we can make the rookie mistakes faster and with fewer employees.

@neurovagrant@masto.deoan.org and then there's my uncle not knowing how to upload images to ChatGPT or how to log in again after an update. It ain't the devs alone who have no sense. That said my uncle is basically a chud. That said, for AI to
rm -rf /is so fucking awful, given that it's the "erase absolutely everything on this computer, yes, I am absolutely sure" command. -

@neurovagrant so this is what AI companies mean when they say "our agent *escaped* its sandbox"

@neurovagrant i hope the rm -rf / will hit every company acting like "we don't need junior devs anymore. AI will handle all that in the future."
