I did something today I haven’t done since college 18 years ago. I created something with code. Our users wanted to integrate teams chat directly into a Sharepoint online page, and there was scant reliable sources online that weren’t overly expensive, so I created the web part myself. It took most of the day, and still needs some fine tuning, but I am definitely proud of what I was able to do. Not necessarily because of ho overly useful it will be but because of the technical challenge it provided. If this crayon eating Jarhead can do it, anybody can. 3 years since I moved from the help desk, and this is where I landed.

I am thinking of going to the summit next year and was wondering g if anyone went last year and how was it? I am primarily a Windows and Linux server admin, also do some Sharepoint on prem and online, as well as VMware, and BigFix.

So I’m gonna go ahead and say I don’t know much about HVAC, I work in IT. So take that with a grain of salt. I have had my house for 10 years and recently I have run in to the issue where the air handler in the attic, the main duct where the air goes out will randomly start leaking. My guess is the fan is sucking air from the pan under the coil. It has only been 8 months and the damn thing started leaking again tonight, damaging the sheet rock in the study while I was playing GTA 3: VC. I poured bleach down the drain 8 months ago, is that too long an interval? Also is it normal for the fan to draw water from the pan and put it in the vent? Thanks!

I’m a pretty chill and open minded dude, I can talk intelligently about many subjects, and I don’t mind any topic. I have zero friends due to my geography.

The icemaker on my in laws fridge keeps crapping out. First I tried replacing the actual icemaker, then I wised up and replaced the main board in the back. That was in October of last year. I’m t has since quit again. And while the board is under warranty and they shipped me a replacement right away, I wonder if there is a deeper issue causing the board to go bad. It was also replaced a few years after they bought it by a technician. Anyone know what may be causing the board to go bad? Refrigerator was made in 2011. Replacement board was DA41-00669A.

When you spend a few hours building a script in powershell to pull computers from the BigFix API and then update them with the current asset tag custom property that you pull from a csv that you updated using vlookup, then edited the web report to include the new column, and setup the command to export the file to a network drive, then watched in glorious wonder as the data updates in the console with accuracy. I don’t feel like an imposter, as much as I did when I moved here from the Help Desk two years ago. Nerding out. Next time I’ll use POSTMAN to help.
