No, my phone went into SOS mode yesterday. No apps, just a button to call 911. And yes, if you lose a ticket, you can indeed miss a flight. Only tale I have for that is a colleague who lost their ticket and the time it took to look up their details put them past boarding, they were stranded at the terminal, but its still an actual risk you can’t wave away.
It takes 5 minutes to save an insane amount of stress and misfortune.
Leonardo De Lima, who works in technology, was on his way to Boston Logan International Airport around 5 a.m. for a business trip to Chicago when he realized his phone was in SOS mode. He initially thought it was a problem with his device, until he got to the Delta terminal and saw a lot of confused faces.
“I heard people talking about the outage, and everyone was lingering in the departure area because nobody could pull up their tickets on their phones,” the 32-year-old said. “I saw a lot of stress.”
It’s a pretty popular meme format, it’s not serious
Exact same here. Totally fine with showing the pass from my phone, prefer it even. But the stakes are too high to skip the 5 minutes it takes to print a paper copy. I can almost guarantee that everyone else is one close call/missed flight away from doing the same thing, too.
Oof, and there’s only ten lines of code, too. And they look very purposefully written out.
Same with proof-of-concept and piece-of-crap!
Kubernetes is fine because it’s easy to keep track of, it looks and pronounces similar to the real word.
O11y for “observability”, though, that one’s pretty rough. And people trying to make the pronunciation “ollie” make me see red.
I will say Tetris Effect in VR is a legitimately transcendental experience. I’ve had trips that felt less meaningful and awe-inspiring than that game.
The fuck’s wrong with you?
