Same, I had a very weird issue with tailscale VPN for a very long time, no amount of updates or googling fixed it

I created here something similar to how intranets work, where I can easily define a service as public or internal in k8s through the ingress class

If it's internal, it's accessible only through tailscale, if it's public, it's accessible by anyone, now for some reason internal services have insane delays or very very bad bandwidth, never understood why and couldn't figure out how to even debug this

Ran codex, gave access to the whole node, ah yeah just lower the MTU to this value, lo and behold it fixed everything

The other day I got a cheap thermal printer with the only way to use it is through an app, I thought ok I'll try to reverse engineer it, try to understand the protocol, then write a script to print, few days later and progress was very slow, I thought let's try to let an LLM so it

It reversed the entire protocol, wrote me a web app where I can print whatever I want, I got what I needed, but feel zero accomplishment

The business had problems that needed solved. I talked with folks and gathered data to be sure what the problem was and what a solution looked like. I then pointed an agent at the proper part of the system with a goal. It gathered data, came up with a plan, created a MR with my name. I submitted the MR, got it approved, made sure it worked in production.

I didn't 100% think through every decision in the implementation but I am 100% responsible for ensuring the problem was solved. What tool I used to solve the problem doesn't diminish my work.

> then copy-pasted 100% spot-on response to a JIRA ticket and sent it to developers for a fix.

I get these and the fix ai suggests is often wrong or hallucinated!
