| Piggybacking to recommend another video of his, "The Hustle",

| For me its Microservices and the whole Senior Engineer video

| I've enjoyed Krazam's other videos, but at the risk of having the
| joke explained (and thus spoiled), what exactly is this
| lampooning? Not asking from a critical place, I legitimately am
| curious about dysfunctional business processes at other companies
| and want to know if people really are drowning in SaaS access
| requests
| JohnMakin wrote:
| Lol, yes, you can extend this same bit to any team that deals
| with a lot of ops. Usually goes like this -
|
| Too many requests come in for one team to handle. No budget to
| hire more bodies, or maybe you've already reached a point where
| that will no longer scale - the work can usually be automated
| completely, but stopping and taking the time to automate it
| will result in a 100% loaded team KPI's dropping significantly,
| meaning you'll almost never get management buy-in or any time
| to do it, leaving you in a perpetual cycle of manual work
| requests flooding in like in this scene.

| I was kind of hoping the ending would be his tool worked and
| they all got laid off - actually seen this happen.

| Personally, I was expecting him to solve the problem but then

| It's not that.

| It's about this weird urge that smart people sometimes feel in

| improve efficiency even when it really does not make sense to
| do so in context of who they are and what their job is.

| You can kinda implement the 'strangler pattern' for this kind of
| ticket toil. The tool scrapes the ticket queue, tries to do what
| it can, either it is successful and closes out the ticket or
| updates it with a new state of what it was able to achieve (if
| anything) and hands it back to the humans. You can start with
| only the most basic tickets and then slowly start to expand its
| scope and capabilities to handle more patterns and edge cases.

| seconds of the video. Unbelievable how much love is put into
| something. And, it sounds weird but really touching to see
| creatives do something that they truly love.
