Technical Terms

Brandon Huff (internally known as "the kid") is part of our Viant team.  Brandon doesn't blog, nor is he on LinkedIn, but those are issues for another day.  Today he noticed a hardware error light on one of our ESX servers.  He's suggesting that during after-hours maintenance, a card needs to be re-seated and can-o-aired.

Does your team use such highly technical terms as "can-o-aired?"

At Viant, we try to stay on the cutting edge of technical terminology. Terms such as can-o-aired and expressions such as "that machine needs a swift kick" are all part of the technical jargon that we find useful in our day to day working experiences.

That's what going to college in the 21st century gets you -- updated terminology. Looks like I've got a lot of work to get my life updated to the Tony standard. I'll have to work on that this week :-).
