WE JUST NEED $50B TO FIX A SYSTEM THAT WASN’T BROKEN, WHAT DON’T YOU UNDERSTAND?
Fucking killed me how he started the presser by claiming that $13 Billion over 25 years wasn’t enough to fix this, but then at the end tried claiming that if we “just give him $12 Billion we’ll have it fixed immediately” or whatever that was. Oh, and the parting shot where he clarified this is an isolated network so it could not have been cybercrime but also the overloading of the network infrastructure had nothing to do with the AI they just dumped on that isolated network. Well fucking gee golly, if it wasn’t the massive network traffic generating machine, then what was it, Duffy? It’s an isolated network, Duffy. There’s not that many options.
Wait until you learn the AI startup funneled a ton of money into the Transportation Secretary’s son-in-law’s campaign.
The implication that someone is saying positive things about Bill O’Reily is horrific
I know some developers who test in dev and qa and they’re all cowards
All devs test in a dev instance, but only some of them have a separate production instance
is that the alternative to messing up the dev environment? Fkjing hate when that happens.
I work in IT. I refuse to move something to Production until it’s thoroughly tested and signed off on. Because every single time someone says “we’ll test it in Live” it leads to massive failures and issues they can’t fix. Every. Single. Time.
The number of things that go wrong while testing is about the same, but the difference is they go wrong on your computer instead of millions of customer’s computers.
And you know, you can keep the old system as a back up in case it breaks when it goes live. I guess that’s too much to ask of the agency that keeps all of the airplanes from crashing.
They did test SMART and they weren’t trying to roll the whole system at once. It worked fine in DC and FL for over 2 months. It worked fine for most of this week.
The first stage of the SMART rollout had been working fine since late September in DC and parts of Florida. They deployed that stage to the rest of the country on the 10th and it worked fine for 3 days.
Given that, I’ll withhold judgement until I hear more.
When you’re the FAA, you still don’t decommission the old system until the new one has been in production for a long time. They left themselves without a fallback position.
Haven’t seen this in the wild in a dog’s age. An old testament memelord?
I quote this one a lot in my day to day life lol
To play us out?!
