    I was on a call trying to set up some Jira automations and they wouldn’t load. I just figured Jira was bugging and ended the call. Hah. Then I saw Slack…

    It didn’t hit me because we’re new-ish to Jira cloud, migrated from server in 2021, and it wouldn’t be the first time something was down with it.

    I miss server so much.

    When AWS goes down I love to dig into what is and isn’t impacted, was the only reason I looked. I wasn’t even experiencing any issues tbh

    Well they’re trying to figure out whether I have MS, need my thyroid taken out, or both. Currently waiting on an endo or neuro referral, or both, and an MRI. Blood work “low side of normal” but, that’s still normal….? Ok…

    Also is this entire thread health social engineering? I mean don’t get me wrong, I don’t really care who knows this about me (Maybe more should so people will leave me alone) but I figured I’d pose the question

    BUT.

    Totally down for what this post entails. Yes this isn’t Reddit, and that’s awesome. But it doesn’t mean that every idea Reddit had was awful and that some can’t be emulated. This is one that, in my opinion it’s a fantastic idea to emulate.

    It would be nice to silo engagement into respective areas, while allowing for browsing of all topics when desired. My bet would be that it would foster more engagement, ultimately.

    I love this for you. I currently have a large vendor customer pushing for a meeting tomorrow to ask how we can mitigate this in the future.

    Would love to say: go halfsies with us on a time machine, send us back a couple years before we decided to move everything to the cloud.

    Texted a fellow tech friend from the office.
    Me: Fucking AWS. I need a beer.
    Him: I’m already there!
    Me: See you in 20

    Idk, having been to tons of basketball games I would not be concerned about the halftime show. If I had the money I’d’ve gladly spent it on a plane ticket and a game ticket.

    Agreed they could’ve done better and I’ve seen some great halftime shows in my time (they could’ve showcased a local step or dance team for example, love when they do that) but it really isn’t about that (to me). I’d be trying my damndest to get a beer/food and not miss a thing.

    You’ve got me beat by a couple years. I’ve only been waiting 23 years for this moment… I wish I could’ve been there tonight.

    Wow so the admins are angry then… can’t believe they shadowbanned you. That’s very petty. I’m super thankful to the person who invited me
