The “debugging” for these type of issues is looking at some logs and http responses and being like “ah if we get this error it means they restarted their firewall again and took us off the whitelist. Email that guy Joe at the bank and hope he responds”. It’s not rocket science or the majority of my job… but someone’s needs to do it. We automate all the stuff we can.

If you got into the industry due to enjoying the typing of code the future is looking pretty bleak.

I dunno.

I've been watching "How it's made" on Hulu to fall asleep at night.

I’m constantly surprised by how many things are made with human hands, despite the ability to automate.

An enormous amount of on-call debugging is just natural language reading of logs.
