    I wish the #ubuntu #apache install was smart enough to know if you don't have any other sites, to just make your new site the default. In any case, good to learn that about apache and now I have an !icinga server (I know Icinga is mentioned in the name of the !nagios group, but not sure if it's an alias)

    I wouldn't call the server functional at this point, but it pops up with a splash page, which is a start

    so there's https://github.com/arangodb/arangodb/blob/devel/LICENSE but is it all open source? !nagios is partially open source, but they aren't what I would call good community members

    I disagree. !Nagios could be a much larger company without Ethan. He's too conservative (in multiple senses of the word) and holds the company back.

    The culture changed at !perforce when we changed CEOs. Now, could that just be due to the extreme growth (4x in 10 months under CEO)? Possibly.

    Judy set the tone at Epic, and her disconnection with reality kept me from staying there.

    blocSonic wouldn't exist without Mike and without his leadership to bring me, Chris, Shawn, and C-Doc on board, he'd never have been able to put out the type of internationally-recognized vinyl that we are putting out on Record Store Day.

    Now, Wal-mart is much larger than any of those organizations, and none of them is retail, but I would say Microsoft was different under Gates, Ballmer, and post-Balmer.

    I miss !nagios sometimes. I want to make a meth joke, and I don't think it'd be well-received here.

    What I don't miss is biking 17+ miles every week day.

    We are hiring a #Drupal dev at !perforce

    I can probably get you a salary range, if you desire.

    It's not my team so I can't give you *all* the dirt, but I can give you a lot of dirt.

    not that there's a lot of dirt...

    It's more buttoned up here than some places, but jeans and a polo/button-up/sweater is fine. So of the younger crowd wears t-shirts. I think this may be a team-by-team thing. I was told "business casual" but that's definitely jeans here. It's incredibly rare to see someone in a tie. I think I saw some of the Sales people in ties because they had to go on-site to a bank once. I wear toe-shoes and people think it's weird because, well, statistically it's weird. It's not a dress code issue though.

    It's not a technical office. It's HQ. The technical office is in California. We've got two (or four depending on how you count) support people, and some technical sales and marketing folks. The culture at !nagios was more for me, but the money here is better, and it's a fuck of a lot closer for me.

    I'm not looking for any positions that aren't remote positions. I don't have as many vacation days as my wife. If I could solve that, I'd probably stay here a while. I doubt I'll be able to solve it though. Still, remote positions are very competitive, so I'll probably be here a while.

    Either I never posted that we are looking for a #Drupal dev, or I did it more than 5 days ago. We're still looking.

    There is a good chance I'll get to work on #p4 !nagios today. Is there anything anyone would like to see in it?

    One thing I miss about !nagios is the orange juice based Mountain Dew. We have the high fructose corn syrup version here.

    I could use the vitamin C, I think.

    I'm just going to email Microsoft myself and see what happens. I'm not getting any information by using the customers as proxies. It worked the last time I tried this, though I don't think it ever worked while I was at !nagios.

    I did it more often at Nagios since I was often dealing with third-party plugins. I got some responses, but mostly not very useful ones.

    I do like bluegrass though. I did get them to play Lords of the Trident once.

    It's not the type of office where I can get away with playing Anal Cunt. I do miss that about !nagios...not that we did anything stupid like have a song of the day at nagios. But, I think Anal Cunt would have been well received, at least for the lulz.

    tbf, that's how it was at !nagios, but fuck !cycling 2 hours a day at -15F

    I'm not sure it was ever that cold in both directions, but you get the picture.

    Just wondering because there's not a single case in the queue. I'm not complaining, maybe I'll get to work on an !opennms plugin

    It's cool that Unity has built in #GNULinux support. It's not like I have time to write a game though. It's been three month since I've worked on !p4 !nagios: https://swarm.workshop.perforce.com/projects/perforce_software-p4nagios/files/main#commits (I bet p4 is not actually an alias for !vcs)

    Anybody got a list of !monitoring tools that support #nrpe? I'd like to list them all in the poorly named P4Nagios. !vcs

    I still have !nagios tagged on the personal site because that's what I know. I'm not sure I've ever seen an icinga install. I suppose I should correct at least that last portion.

    even though already works with !icinga, would be hilarious if someone forked https://github.com/douglasawh/p4nagios/ and renamed it.
