Cisco and Juniper need to die as entities like 5 years ago. They’re single-handedly holding back all of networking from entering the modern era of computing.

You must not work in enterprise IT. Every lower level network engineer says this until they gain more skills and experience with them. Then they realize the full extent of features Cisco and Juniper support that others don’t

Surprising opinion, I was only a junior in my brief stint at networking but all my seniors shared this opinion.

Care to elaborate? Sounds like an interesting story.

Honestly can’t elaborate too much as I was only a junior network guy at best and it’s been a few years since that. But coming from a world of infrastructure as code and CI/CD deployment strategies, the shit we had to do to manage changes on Cisco and juniper switches was ridiculous. It was like stepping back into the stone age.

Oh wait, this isn’t the Reddit anymore.

Did I do that right?

Exclamation mark denotes the community, so:

!crappydesign@sh.itjust.works

!assholedesign@lemmy.ml

!assholedesign@lemmy.world

!crappydesign@zerobytes.monster

The @ is the username indicator, so you’ve pinged people whose usernames are those for the instance.

This is one of those double edged sword things with Lemmy, since there’s so many places a community can be, they all end up being a little smaller. There’s got to be a better solution for that. Maybe when creating a community there should be a way to automatically search a large portion of committed all at once and display it to the user.

What’s needed is the ability to create and share ‘meta’ communities. A group of smaller communities can then loosely appear as a single larger community. Users can still drill down to the individual sub comunities, if they choose to. A little bit like a recursive federation.

This reminds me of Macintosh computers from the late '80s/early '90s. The disk drive had no physical eject button and the power button for the computer was a big knob sticking out right below the disk drive. Coming from the PC world, it took me a couple of days to learn to stop turning off the computer every time I tried to eject the disk.

Oh yeah the “hilarious” obligation to drag the floppy to the trashcan to eject it.

So intuitive…

Yeah maybe it was but it sure wasn’t intuitive!

Is it going to erase my floppy? No just eject it…

Was there a recall? I remember them sending out an advisory of the default behavior (and how to disable it), then changing the default behavior in software.
