Infinite loops and the True Meaning of DevOps (Forrest Brazeal on Twitter)

Posted by jpluimers on 2025/11/05

[Wayback/Archive] Forrest Brazeal on Twitter: “Multiple people on LinkedIn have commented on this to swear they’ve seen people DELIBERATELY SHIP INFINITE LOOPS to justify their infra footprint That, my friends, is the true meaning of DevOps”

which was sparked because of comments on his [Wayback/Archive] Forrest Brazeal on Twitter: “Not all “utilization” is created equal…” cartoon:

They use JavaScript and do client-side conversion.

There are way more conversion targets (Delimited, Flat File, GeoJSON, HTML Table, JSON, KML, Markdown, Multi-line Data, PDF, SQL, Word, XML, YAML) and operations (Pivot, Transpose, Query with SQL), but the above are what I use most.

Interessante video over alternatieven voor een reguliere inlaatcombinatie voor CV ketels: [Wayback/Archive] Waarom ik geen standaard inlaatcombinatie plaats.. deze werken na een paar jaar niet meer goed..🤔 – YouTube

De inlaatcombinatie is 3 apparaten in 1.. een afsluiter, overdrukventiel en keerklep die voorkomt dat er warmwater terug kan lopen naar de koudwaterleiding. Ik plaats altijd een losse kogelafsluiter met controleerbare keerklep, daarnaast plaats ik een losse overstort van 6 bar..
