The ProLUG Big Book of Labs by Scott Champine is free with a Leanpub Reader membership! Or you can buy it for $20.00! http://leanpub.com/theprolugbigbookoflabs #SystemsEngineering #Ansible
Ah yes, 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 an article that solves the age-old mystery of how Bell Labs, with all its resources and brilliant minds, managed to figure things out!

When you’re trying to solve a complex technical problem, look first for solutions that involve subtraction.
Today, a common default response is to solve problems by adding something. It’s a cultural phenomenon. For example, we solve software problems by adding more software.
Slow down. Back to basics. Ponder.
What is this immediate problem a part of, in the larger scheme of things?
What is our real objective?
Are we best served, today, by getting rid of entire ways of doing things that are no longer optimal?
Solutions that involve addition increase complexity.
Solutions that involve addition increase dependencies.
Solutions that involve addition increase the likelihood of system failures and breakdowns.
Today I learned that one of our industrial user interface devices has sshd in its image, but not ssh.
Apparently the designers anticipated a need to log in to make configuration changes, but never expected anybody to try to get these things to dial out.
I laughed out loud. The suffering R&D engineer who had a two-week project turn into six months did not find it so amusing.
so i am going to post a thread of some graphs about the human situation on the planet. some show data, some show concepts. all of them are going to be pretty depressing, so buckle up.
Contentious statement, maybe, but this comes up so often that it makes me wonder how the same problems persist over decades...
FreeBSD's pkg system is superior in every way to Debian's apt package system. How often does apt crap-out from dependency failures? every day it seems. FreeBSD pkg... never had those issues with binaries or ports in >20 years.
makes me wonder, do people just never branch out to see alternate solutions and methods for implementation - instead just assuming that their reinvented wheel is always the best? that's some fanboy scheiß if so
and to the fanboys ahead of time, I've run many a private apt repo for large orgs, and build perhaps too many debs for sanity sake; I know how the systems work, it's just not a good implementation compared to others (even in linux world there's dnf and portage to show this is not a flame on linux specifically, just apt. apt sucks.
by the way, you can go to the https://sebokwiki.org and learn the systems engineering basics for free, complete with references. no one can stop you!
the latest INCOSE Systems Engineering Handbook hardcopy can be obtained for US$90 (from Wiley) and the softcopy is free for INCOSE members, which you can just join if you want to. The Handbook is synchronized with the ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288:2023 International Standard - Systems and software engineering--System life cycle processes and you can even get certified by studying it and taking an affordable MOOC.
of course, there's the SWEBOK but it's not been updated since 2013 and I have not met a single software engineer that even mentioned it.
The Boeing 737 MAX incidents are a stark reminder: even industry giants with a legacy of excellence can stumble. What went wrong? Was it a failure of engineering principles or something more profound?
In my latest blog post on Resilience Engineering, I explore concepts like FMEA, Chaos Engineering, and how organizations can build systems resilient to failure.

(It says it’s temporary, but so far we managed to extend every position to unlimited, because it’s really needed.)
"Deploy, deploy, deploy," but when and where makes tens of billions of tons difference in CO2 emissions avoided. Does the invisible hand of the market understand this? Likely not as it functions by fumbling, isn't conscious or conscientious.
I've been working in software engineering industry for a while. Now working on #SmartEnergy and #SystemsEngineering
Interested in many topics from #EmbeddedSystems to #SoftwareSecurity to #CloudComputing
Societal topics also matter to me, not only because #SoftwareDesign is very much about #HumanRelationships but these are very sensitive to #Political and #Social that are currently being designed also on #SocialMedia
This is my #introduction post!
I'm Robert. I relocated to the #Atlanta metro in 1998 and moved to #ATL proper in 2000.
I'm a life long #technologist with a background in #Linux #SystemsEngineering, #datacenter management, #programming (#golang, #python, #javascript, and familiar with #C, #assembly, #Pascal, and #basic
I kinda know the instance sysop
I guess I should do an #introduction. I'm a cis male, poly, and use he/him pronouns. Work is #systemsengineering, #softwareengineering, #devops and #cloud. I might toot about riding my #motorcycle and #bicycle, recreational #programming, #retrocomputing, and tinkering with #electronics, my #karate practice, or my interests in #history and #economics and in #metalworking and #blacksmithing.
I did an #Introduction when I joined mastodon.green, but I guess another one is needed for #Astrodon. I currently work in #SystemsEngineering for #RadioTelescopes (in particular, the #ALMA radio interferometer). I’ve also worked in software development and management for the #SKAO observatory, and for the archive department at #ESO. Glad to see you around!
