I have become nix-pilled on this and it's beautiful. If you feel this way about managing a local environment I recommend using Nix.

I started my career in 1987 and yep I remember you'd call up Oracle HQ here in UK and request they post you patches in the post. You wait 2 days for them to arrive!

I remember the first time I downloaded a set of graphic drivers for Windows 3.1 from an FTP site over 2400 baud modem, it's was like a miracle.

"bloody kids today", "back in my day" and "we used to...", god I feel old!

That's also my face when I intentionally update 1,276,000 records. Updating live data is just super stressful

That's not a problem until you issue "commit". Oh your RDBMS doesn't have tranction isolation?

Yeah, you're about about to have a conversation with your boss, the users and a very, very pissed off DBA! Ha ha!

And this is why you ALWAYS do a select first, then you know how much data will be affected. And also two eyes principle and only one terminal so you know you got the right terminal as well.

2001 working at a trading company for just 3 weeks where realtime prices come in every minute and one day they suddenly stopped. I had said I had some Linux admin experience to get the job. The led me to the back of the computer room, showed me this beat up, caseless PC with the HD hanging on to its cables for dear life! They handed me a manky Post-IT note with the root password...

I managed to get in, clear out garbage in /tmp and working again. Afternoon spent demanding money to buy new server and a proper supported copy of RHEL!!
