- gyulai 4y ago> Pets, not cattle is the general mantra for configuration management systems. Oh, I didn't realize it was in widespread use. But still. Someone thought of it, and it's great use of language.
- soulofmischief 4y agoTotally agree, it's the kind of sentence which immediately imparts of knowledge and gives you a lot to chew on.
- mananaysiempre 4y agoOr rather the other way around (usually, though not here)?
- soulofmischief 4y agoDefinitely the other way around, whoops!
- lexandstuff 4y agoYou mean Cattle, not Pets is the general mantra, right? Or have things changed a lot since I was last doing Ops?
- soulofmischief 4y agoOh you're totally right, and I should stop posting on HN from my phone while out at the bar. :)
