if you ever want to piss me off, make me responsible for the stability of software over time, and then when something upstream breaks that stability and I report it, ask me "why are you trying to support that"

I discovered this piano interpretation of Imperial Triumphant while looking into the dark abyss of my musical taste

I have not heard Imperial Triumphant, so I am listening with no reference

I wanted to make a selection, and discoverd this, but also discovered we have a new album from Blut Aus Nord. No new album from Bohren & Der Club of Gore though. I believe I started listening to The Others (Lustmord Deconstructed). I think I will listen to Atrium Carceri. And I haven't listened to Abul Mogard for a while; he released an EP earlier this year.

The image displays a digital screen showcasing album covers for "Imprints of Man" by Imperial Triumphant. The covers include titles such as "Rotted Futures," "Crushing the Idol," and "Maximalist Scream." A musician dressed

I've said this a million times before but it bears repeating.

If you've got a complex but working highly available distributed system and you're trying to replace it with something new that's "simpler", you'll spend 6 weeks on designing the replacement, 6 months on implementing a working prototype, and 6 years on fixing all your edge and corner cases that the old system had already addressed that you were too dumb or arrogant to even consider.

And sometimes the number isn't 6, but 10.
