[11:01] <wolfger> morning
[11:03] <cscheib> I hate morning
[11:04] <rick_h_> it's definitely something that I have a love/hate with
[11:19] <wolfger> hate/hate
[11:19] <wolfger> but I have had to do it for work for so long, I can't not be up early anymore.
[11:21] <cscheib> usually I can sleep in considerably longer, but my allergies are acting up
[11:21] <rick_h_> wolfger: yea, the worst is on vacation when you're laying there with eyes open at 6:30am going ... dammit I am not going to get up and make coffee until 7am at least!
[11:21] <wolfger> lol
[11:21] <wolfger> been there, done that
[11:45] <cmaloney> Good morning
[12:19] <DrDaemonEye> morning cmaloney
[14:31] <greg-g> soooo
[14:31] <greg-g> last night, we had a search cluster outage
[14:31] <greg-g> had another one the night before
[14:32] <greg-g> guess what the cause was....
[14:33] <greg-g> a candidate for a position I'm hiring for (the aforementioned one where the req# disappeared) after hearing we wanted some code samples took it upon himself to test our search feature with strings known to bring down google back a decade or so
[14:35] <rick_h_> heh
[14:36] <rick_h_> "You're hired and you're pretty up to speed on your first project already"
[14:38] <greg-g> or "dont' fucking test on things that will page people"
[14:41] <jrwren> that is awesome.
[14:41] <jrwren> If only I could have brought down rick_h's entire CI environment BEFORE my first day on the job, instead of 2hrs into it.
[14:54] <wolfger> LOL
[14:55] <rick_h_> yea, greg-g now has upped my story with jrwren
[14:56] <rick_h_> it stood up for a good year :)
[14:56] <_stink_> haha
[14:58] <greg-g> I got online, saw the search cluster outage, people were responding, I called/woke up the main guy, checked my email and a message from candidate with "so, I was testing, and here's the errors I found" ... I couldn't believe it at first and had the team confirm
[14:59] <rick_h_> lol
[15:00] <jrwren> that is amazing.
[15:00] <jrwren> you got free QA
[15:00] <jrwren> you are lucky he emailed you rather than some stranger poking at your server and wonder why it failed.
[15:09] <cmaloney> greg-g: That is ... somewhere between awesome and a pain in the ass.
[15:10] <wolfger> that is deserving of a Fry meme
[15:11] <wolfger> Not sure if I should hire him  ...  Or report him to the FBI
[15:15] <greg-g> jrwren: yeah, definitely
[15:15] <greg-g> wolfger: :)
[15:16] <cmaloney> That's not FBI-worthy
[15:20] <greg-g> depends if it's a violation of our ToU ;)
[15:21] <jrwren> greg-g: good luck enforcing that.
[15:22] <wolfger> just used keyword:terrorist
[15:22] <wolfger> s/used/use/
[15:22] <jrwren> https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2010/07/court-violating-terms-service-not-crime-bypassing
[15:23] <greg-g> jrwren: I know I know, it's a joke :P
[15:24] <jrwren> greg-g: oh right, there is a winky smiley right there.  sorry.
[15:24] <wolfger> "alleged terrorist used known exploit to shut down our servers". It's a stretch, but I bet you could find an FBI agent humorless enough to pursue it
[15:24] <wolfger> at least to the point of making the guy sweat
[15:26] <wolfger> possibly not actionable unless you can prove damages (e.g. outage cost you money)
[15:27] <wolfger> but yeah, I'm inclined to say "you're hired, please don't do that again"
[15:57] <jrwren> wife just came home with 2 qt of fresh picked strawberries
[15:57] <greg-g> win
[15:57] <greg-g> tummy ache time!
[16:01] <jrwren> oh PainBank, what are we going to do with you?
