The whole time it looked like I had gotten sniped by an Intrusion Prevention System and blacklisted but I couldn't imagine Sine installing something like that on the server. Never would have guessed it was a dead image link that would cause it.
It's odd then, why didn't it affect everyone?
Nah, none of that. I found for the past few days I was getting blacklisted after visiting here once. Sine found out it was because of that Fail2Ban script was blacklisting some of us when we tried to load an image in the Mental "mea culpa" thread. Because the image didn't exist anymore, it gave an error similar to what that script was looking for bots to try to load nonexistent scripts and therefore kicked us out for the day. I was able to confirm this by going to the site through a proxy website and after visiting the thread in question even it would stop being able to connect.Anarky wrote:Cookies or login expiration possibly?Tessian wrote:Good to know I wasn't the only one affected... was driving me crazy.

No, no. I can't. I'm just not good at the tiny meticulous details that make every difference in the world when you're a programmer. I'm an accountant, we have a thing called "materiality" in our world. If you miss something small here and there, it just don't matter. I just can't worry about whether or not a semicolon in a certain place rather than not makes or breaks the entire code (that actually happened to me in the only coding course I ever took). I'm very good at the logic, I just can't deal with the actual process of coding.Kupek wrote:Naw, that's why you don't want to be a programmer.

I was an auditor, too. There's a big part of being an auditor where you look at tiny little details and I wasn't good at that either regardless of how hard I tried. I was good at getting close which was good enough.Kupek wrote:No, you just didn't like it, so you didn't continue to do it. You develop those abilities through practice, they're not innate.
Ive completely moved out of audit for similar reasons. I'm a big fan of materiality and tax utilizes it more.Zeus wrote:I was an auditor, too.

Having the ability to be meticulous isn't necessarily a learned skill. Some people are just more predisposed to it than others.
I've been in industry for 3 years now and I MUCH prefer the work. Although the workplace can be more relaxed and just better overall in an audit firm, the work itself is just garbageFlip wrote:Ive completely moved out of audit for similar reasons.
