One of the most depressing error messages, maybe? Happened early this morning and I've been feeling sad ever since :-/8

Had to enter the Apple world when joining the new job.
Used a good hour locating curly brackets, pipe and tilde on that cryptic keyboard.
User-friendly my ass.13 -
Just watched Bourne. One of the first lines are: "Corrupt their database by using SQL". It's like saying: "Corrupt their text document with words". I love when they are "technical" in movies.11

If you divide an integer with two over and over again, you will get closer and closer to 0, but you will never reach it.
Kind of the same feeling as watching your rant gain more and more ++'s, but never hitting that magical 300.11 -
I'll be honest I couldn't care less about ++ I'm here for the discussion , devs generally have something interesting to say2

Bruteforce IRL
So I recently bought my first house (yay!).
Whilst doing the initial viewings I saw the below on the backyard and thought "hey that's neat, I can leave a key in there for when I come in late and my fiancée is asleep.
Fast forward to moving in day and the previous owners hand me the keys so I ask "oh yeah, what's the code for the keysafe" and he just looks at me completely blank, so I'm just like "the box on the wall out back" and he's just like "oh! So that's what that is. No we've never had the code for that, bye."
Being a pen tester I'm just stood there dumbfounded thinking "How the hell can you have a locked box attached to your house and not want to know what is inside!"
Anyway, that brings us to now where I'm stood outside in December on a Sunday morning brute forcing my way into my own keysafe.
I wish this didn't run so many parallels with my work life 😂51
