Personal blog · itskeptic.orgsystemsbusiness
The IT Skeptic is a personal blog at itskeptic.org about systems and business. Since 2009, 4 different Hacker News readers have linked it 5 times. The last post was in 2012, but the archive is still widely read.
Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
Linked as a reference for the dead cat syndrome concept, in a thread where a commenter said they were unfamiliar with the term and were reading up on it.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
A cool, skeptical (sceptical) view of IT (information technology), its sillier moments, and especially those around ITSM (service management), ITIL V2 and V3, and CMDB
What Hacker News says?
I actually don't think that's the dead-cat-saying that the parent is referencing. I think that it's this concept http://itskeptic.org/dead-cat-syndrome.html I am also unfamiliar though and I'm reading up on it right now.
