> This is 1990s Windows revisited--reboot and move along, unreliability is simply the nature of computers....

Ugh, so much this. Where I work (until the 16th) we've moved from an environment of stability, where problems are investigated and fixed and stay fixed, to our acquirer's environment where things break randomly at all times, and it's not worth investigating system problems because nothing will stay fixed anyway. #totallynotbitter




This is that part of being professional where you want to just keep working until your last day, or come in with your feet kicked up and do nothing with the "what are they going to do, fire me?" attitude. If there's severance, I'd go with the former. If everything is settled and it's just waiting out your time, try the latter?


If you’re trying to be professional, the latter is never an option.


Or we kick the can down the road a different way: XPoint type stuff (assuming prices come down) so that swap is fast enough and big enough again.

Although XPoint has been a disappointment so far.
