Kid brings me an ancient Chromebook with non-functioning "t" key.
I crack open the case and remove a bunch of screws trying to get to the keyboard.
No can do. This thing is built to basically self-destruct upon user tampering (Dammit, China!!!)
Put it all back together with the intent of trying to wipe it and recycle it.
The "t" key is suddenly working fine.3 -
Film a documentary/reality television series chronicling how A. I.'s eventually self destruct trying to make sense of client requirements.

We have a git hook that posts in a group chat for our whole department when we do a git pull on production. I'm on vacation all next week, here is what I had the git hook display in the chat just like a true commit. "Onyx" is our ERP system and "Onyx Admin" is a key program that runs many "jobs".

Why do my parents instantly forget anything they "learn" related to computers?! Like how my mom keeps forgetting how to do stuff in PowerPoint. And especially how she keeps forgetting that "I'm not a PowerPoint expert, I don't use it, and I would have to read and try some buttons just like she should do."1
