Cloudflare maintenance in Atlanta datacenter

This post is a few minutes from the start of this event, in between 2023-08-17 05:00 and 2023-08-18 22:00 UTC, see https://cloudflarestatus.com .  If you use Cloudflare and watch the scheduled maintenance activity start or kicked in, you'd notice that resources got a blip, just for a second. They went out and a refreshed would make those affected resources return and its noticeable for websites.  In our end, everything seemed to be working fine, with a little, lag, if your eyes are set on to your traffic right now.  Here, we can see it's okay overall. Right?

Know thy time

It's a statement and work of Peter Drucker. He's the management practice master, the dean of the profession and the discipline in general according to his works, literature and practitioners themselves. He's behind the notable Non-profit's Drucker Prize for which he defined innovation as change that creates new dimension of performance, which means very big about time in human activity.

Leaders of all organizations, in business, health, education, technology including but not limited to innovation, except military which may vary in high degree for some reasons, knows about management and why time is the best argument for humans to not forget when doing their job.

In consulting, generally, this is probably the main reason why their outcome is crucial and that their fees are not that cheap. They do understand their job, the value they create and contribute to the organization they work with. They can also be fully aware to the broader aspect of business which is the subject of their work regardless of the specifics of a given chore.

However, fees may have been always at the bottom of the agenda. On top is the solution itself. That's what they are for and as far as we can see.

They know what they are doing and also the variables around their work. They dislike failures in their outcomes and no excuses if at all. They just deliver and have it verified, always in tandem, with their work and as they progress. The intervening ruler will flash in red if there is mistake. Which can be corrected immediately.

With IT the goal can be made even more precise. While many says IT is complex and it is so only due to human differences in their ability to handle their own business which is mostly drawn out by outside factors. Some would even equate medicine's specialization to IT's specific practice area. It's completely different, they are linked up and integrated. Medicine is not except when patients health conditions have already developed complications.

IT can be addressed right away with the job at hand. No need history. IT practitioners education of solid fundamentals would show why something is wrong with a business application or the entire enterprise systems are in complete disarray.

An IT practitioner that doesn't have any excuse but to move forward and work and solve problems, will have no issue at all except for things that are out of its control. Organizations or clients need to understand this very well. Of course, with the help of its IT practitioner or IT consultnat. It shows why with the 8Ps we created when we began IT consulting, and then it helps how our training, its pedagogy, must be developed differently from the mainstream at a later part of our enterprise. There are solutions and services to explore, a trial and error scenario for many, which can result into expenses which, and time, are two important resources not to waste. Time can also say if a measurement being used for a certain activity is effective and how major resources are being used up, for the existence, or to support the continuing growth, of the business itself. It also states very loud about where an organization is now and then with respect to innovation, business systems and/or IT maturity, its market and not ending with competition.

Philippine telcos blocking entire SMS text with internet addresses in it

If you are sending SMS texts to your friends, family or colleagues and they contain internet or web address including IP and email addresses, and even a period or dot separating, regardless of, your words and numbers, they are automatically blocked and not going to be received by your waiting recipient. Cooler heads must prevail here especially if an important message is urgently being expected. IP version 6 address is fine. However, an IPv4 including localhost address (given automatically to every computers and network interfaces as their own alone designed for troubleshooting purposes), and your money in the billion figure using dot as separators would be blocked.  If you send "local.business, naman.naman etcetera" or any words that made you use dot in between them, as part of the text, they will be blocked. There are some, that isn't blocked in this category. Like check.iclassed, some.ent, whatever.local etcetera, that is because they do not form any domain name at all

Online information provided for stakeholders' consumption

It must relay the true meaning and real application necessary in the physical world. We have probably all experience how to learn first thing about our plans before we go ahead and act. Like for instance, when we order something online, attend to some responsibilities for our organizations, communicate with people via video, chat and email including but not limited to asking stakeholders, very politely and sincerely, if there's anything else we can do to help further. This online environment must make us work to facilitate and relay exactly what we expect and do in the physical world. What the online information is telling us should be enough to readily make a decision and act accordingly. This is especially true when people have to do it themselves, read relevant information and will go there, say store, or anywhere else, to perform the chores required.  We cannot provide information online, when customers expect them to be a guideline or instruction to do something, that we know
