    Work, Boredom, Bacon, PDF, Essentials, Halo

    Saturday, March 28th, 2020

    A great Saturday. (28th) Regular work day for me. I was able to get a host evacuated and maintenanced. This one had a bad stick of RAM. Of course, we use ECC RAM in all of our servers, but still, I wanted to get it replaced ASAP.  A new level of boredom. My next door […]

    Tired, Work, Garden, Zoom, TV

    Thursday, March 26th, 2020

    A good Thursday. (26th) Got up tired today, went to sleep too late last night. Regular work day for me. I was able to complete testing on the issue that I got solved, in our staging environment, so I started deploying to our production regions. Of course, I found another issue that needs corrected in […]

    Health, Work, Neighbor, Banana Bread

    Wednesday, March 25th, 2020

    A great Wednesday. (25th) Exercised first thing. Watched an episode of Knights of Sidonia season 2.  Regular work day for me. Work went well, I was able to complete testing on the issue that I got solved, and move it into our staging environment, where I was able to start testing it there. I didn’t complete […]

    Work, Costco, Supplies, RedBox, Dinner

    Tuesday, March 24th, 2020

    A good Tuesday. (24th) Regular work day for me, I was able, with our engineers’ help, to get my issue I’ve been working on solved! It took me three full days, but I have a much better handle on our container software, CI (continuous integration) system, packaging system, image build system, and dev environment. All […]

    Work Schedule, Stay Home, Prepared, Family, Movie

    Monday, March 23rd, 2020

    A busy Monday. (23rd) Today is my first day at work this week, since I’m working a Mon-Fri schedule temporarily to mirror one of our systems engineers schedules, who’s departing the company.  Worked with him, and the other Ops engineer who’s doing training with him this week.  We read that Bexar County Judge Nelson Wolff […]

    Friend, UniFi, Exercise Bike

    Saturday, March 21st, 2020

    A long Saturday. (21st)  We got up a bit early this morning to run some errands, I mean, to stay safely quarantined in our home. Called my friend for his birthday, he’s 50 this year. We had a good chat.  While troubleshooting an issue with my media server, I discovered that my UniFi Cloud Key […]

    Health, Work, New Things

    Wednesday, March 18th, 2020

    A busy Wednesday. (18th) Got up and exercised first thing. “Went” to work. Of course, I’m working from home, so there’s that. Found out that one of our most talented engineers is leaving for another opportunity. That leaves some opportunity open for myself and another guy on my team, though. We spent the day learning […]

    Work, WHO, TV

    Wednesday, March 11th, 2020

    A good Wednesday. (11th) Regular work day for me. The side entrance to my work is closed, they’re working on the gates and re-paving the parking lot there. Got a couple of previously evacuated hosts maintenanced today, so that good.  I found an interesting link today. The WHO (World Health Org) has a COVID-19 situation […]

    Robotics Regionals, Celebration Dinner, Niece

    Saturday, March 7th, 2020

    A great Saturday. (7th) Got up around 5am to pick up another family, go to breakfast, and drive to north Austin (Hutto, TX).  Stopped at Las Palapas for breakfast tacos and Buc-ee’s for caffeine.  Got to Hutto a few minutes before 8am, right on time! Our teams competed well, they’ve improved both their driver skills as […]

    Work, Pack, Bed

    Friday, March 6th, 2020

    A great Friday. (6th) Regular work day for me.  Worked on my primary product today. Handled a couple of minor emergencies thrown my way. Completed the container clean up work I’ve been performing.  Once I got home, Jill and our younger son helped me pack everything for our trip tomorrow. We’ve got our regional Robotics […]
