I oversimplified it but the actual process was to zip files to send to an FTP server

The cron zipped the files to send in the same directory as the zipped files, then sent the zip, then deleted the zip

Looks fine, right? But what if the FTP server is slow and uploading take more time than the hourly cron dispatch? You now have a second script that zip all the folder, with the previous zip file, which will slow down the upload, etc...

I believe may have been started by an FTP upload erroring out and forcing an early return without having a cleanup, and progressively got worse

... I suppose this happened. The logs were actually broken and didn't actually add the message part of the error object, and only logging the memory address to it

Well it's not that simple... Because whoever wrote that made it way too complicated (and the production version has been tweaked without updating the dev too)

A clean rewrite with some guard clauses helped remove the haduken ifs and actually zipping the file outside of the zipped directory helped a lot

Oh no need. The client didn't noticed anything in 6 years, and the reason why we had to check is because they wanted us to see if we could add this feature... That already existed.

Meanwhile, had to debug a script that zipped a zip recursively, with the new data appended. The server had barely enough storage left, as the zip took almost 200GB (the data is only 3GB). I looked at the logs, last successful run: 2019

The strip is called "Garfield". Not "Jon". That would be absurd to have a comic strip just dedicated to Jon

Nope. The twins are from blue archive, Vita from Honkai Impact 3rd, and the train from factorio

The length is actually the official model being like that. Curveness was to make something cute but actually it seems to not be a common thing people can do?

You can't bend your fingers like that!? ... TIL not everyone can

Oh hey! Guess what great new community is going straight in the block list!

This one is 100% deserved.

TBF, if your step by steps instructions works, it doesn't matter how complicated the command is.

Oh come on! I at least type the beginning so that it filters the history

I wouldn't trust him to not spill the tea...

Literally

And for those of us who don't? Need source please...

Knowledge of your passwords

Uh... What password?

I kinda hate the push towards passkeys. If you have two factor Auth, going to passkeys makes you go back to 1 factor, aka less secured.

There's also more and more 2FA fatigue attacks going on, and they can affect passkeys too, and if you don't have a 2FA that involves the user writing a code on the 2FA device, passkeys could be quite possibly worse than passwords

That's actually how I discovered heathcliff at all

TBH I thought it was for refactoring type safety. Making sure that the type is understood and not ready to just change wildly accidentally.

I do love rust. But I do like making fun of it too.

Although I don't see how rust is immature? Unless I missed the joke?

I don't get it either. OP might be angry at compile time (Couldn't be worse than rust)
