@huronbikes@cyberplace.social @ludicity@mastodon.sprawl.club I worked at a corporate giant (not FAANG) with nice people. My manager asked for a single additional testing VM to improve team productivity. She filed the request every few weeks for two years until we got it. That was ten years ago. I'm still wondering if the problem was a sysadmin who was too lazy to click three buttons (or the equivalent Infrastructure-as-Code action) or an accountant who was happy to waste a quarter of a million dollars on team productivity to save $1,000 in VMs.
