Yes! And I'm losing insurance this month! Joy!

Yeah the hay being in there makes it a pretty good bet you found an old icebox!

Before the days of man-made refrigeration, they kept blocks of ice in insulated chambers like this, and gradually chipped away at it over the summer months to keep their food cool and fresh.

Awesome find!

I mean, you can just write a whole custom shell for this

I think you're trying to insinuate that the US government is the only one that's buying data from data brokers to spy on its own citizens. I hope we can both agree that that's bad and we don't like that idea, but I don't know what makes you think this isn't also happening elsewhere. Do you have reason to believe it's not?

I use this, I will say, the latest version is vibecoded with AI and it shows. I'm sticking to the previous v0.8.x release, and forking from there.

Other than that, its a great project, and works well for my needs

Same... My brain was hungry for a puzzle to dig into and now its already over. Big sad.

Can't argue there!

Languages change over time, and we get to vote on which words we'd like changed by preferring cool ones over just "the way it has always been"

Calm your tits (meaning your birds), I say "daymon", and I relish any opportunity to offend the overly devout.

My reason is simple: I learned the word by reading it and sounding it out, and that's more badass than "haha I say demon because I'm edgy"

Then again, I'm sick and maybe I'm misreading it, if that's the case, my apologies.

Don't hate me here but this feels like that meme where the guy puts a stick in the spokes of his bike and blames the stick.

I think that's just a process problem, definitely depends on the specifics of your organization but I think if you raised that concern, you could probably come up with a solution that isn't quite so burdensome, while maintaining the maturity level of IaC.

And I hate to be that guy but that last sentence doesn't seem have much at all to do with IaC. Big shops can use IaC, so can small shops. In my case it's the latter, we just have so much tech spread across so many platforms that maintaining it purely via GUI is infeasible. IaC is simply the best way to go for us, due to the sheer number of moving pieces.
