À propos de cet audio

We delve into the bizarre and often cringe-worthy world of IT mishaps, glitches, and the horror stories that come with it. With a sarcastic twist we recount the tales of those who somehow manage to create chaos out of the simplest tasks. We strike a balance between relatable frustration and dark humor that gets even the most cringe-inducing stories entertaining and you will find yourself laughing, cringing, and shaking their heads in disbelief as we take a wild ride through the chaotic world of IT, where every glitch is a ghost story waiting to be told.2024-2025 Développement commercial et entrepreneuriat Entrepreneurship Gestion et leadership Économie

  • Y2K vs Y2K38 - The Rematch
    Nov 3 2025

    We revisit the original digital apocalypse — the year 2000 - looking back at what Y2K really was, how an army of COBOL coders saved the world before midnight, and why most people never even noticed.

    But the clock is ticking again: Y2K38 is coming, and this time it's 32-bit. Different date, same panic waiting to happen as UNIX time doesn't heal — it overflows into a negative.

  • SAP Happens
    Oct 6 2025

    SAP sits quietly at the heart of most global businesses, running everything from payroll to procurement, logistics to finance. It's the system nobody brags about, but everybody depends on. And when someone says "just check SAP," you know you're in for more than a click or two.

    In this episode, we explore how SAP became the invisible backbone of enterprise life, why it inspires equal parts respect and frustration, and the strange comfort of knowing it's always there whether you want it to be or not. Because in the end, no matter the industry or the project… SAP happens.

  • Paris Rooftops
    Aug 31 2025

    Installing a 5G antenna on a rooftop in downtown Paris sounds simple enough - until reality sets in.

    In this episode, we walk thru the saga of a project that required not one, not two, but multiple site visits before the antenna finally worked as expected. Permits, building access, scheduling delays, unexpected power requirements - each visit brought a new twist, each delay a new story.

    Was it bureaucracy? Weather? Or just the uniquely French way of doing things?

    Join us on the rooftops of Paris for a tale of project planning, technical hurdles, and cultural aspects that turns a routine install into a mini-series of its own.
