Told D2 there was a reverse parade today in . She sighed. I think she thought it was an anti-pride thing. I had to explain that the “floats” were stationary while the spectators moved from booth to booth.

‘Local businesses and organizations show their support and PRIDE for the + community by participating in a “reverse Pride parade” where businesses are the “floats” and participants visit their booths.’

When was the last time you typed ATDT? #Retrocomputing #HayesStandard

Thanks everyone for participating. I know many people used ATDP. See the replies.

I cannot remember when I last had to type it. Even while I was still on dial-up, software like #Procomm did the dialing, but early on had to type it a lot.

Amateur hour here today. Realized I hadn't put the python code for my widget that sends a report to client on the other machine I plan to migrate. Opened script and found it would not run. Looked at logs and found it hasn't run in two weeks. Error message indicates SQL server permission problem. Logged into server manually with those credentials and it's fine. I realized I changed some stored procedures and maybe that user has permissions messed up. Nope, sp run fine. 1/2

OK, found another problem related to DNS changes—management console for endpoint security also broke. This required repair install pointing to correct new name of server for the SQL server and then a restart of SQL server instance and endpoint security service.

I just thought I'd go to #ZipRecruiter and post my resume and search for jobs, but can't seem to actually get to the site. I'm stuck in this multiple question interview thing. #AISucks

Finally got in and it is suggesting brick machine operator $18.00/hr or psychiatric nurse practitioner $89.00/hr

I think I fall somewhere in between. 🙄 #JobHunting

These jobs all stink. 😥

I put a filter in for my minimum salary, and it is still showing me jobs for $12/hr and $24,000/yr.

#Prosper already has a $48M stadium opened in 2019.

I pray that no child in that district ever has to pay for lunch.

Mastodon.sdf.org seemed to be down this morning (ET). Now up, but some parts still cranky. E.g., cannot get notifications feed to load.

Online advertisers: “Walking shoes suitable for the elderly.”

Me: I think you’re targeting the wrong person. …I think.

#JobHunt #NewYorkLife should be embarrassed their job listing looks like this.
