Prices hit over $2 a few years back didn't they? I was trying to remember but I was sure they did.

They did but I managed to dodge it. I only fill up every couple of weeks

Hopefully it's just a field attribute at the front end but you'd like to think you've tested it before rolling this 'new' system out.

After a gazillion years in the tech industry, nothing surprises me.

These sort of clusterfaarks are much more common than people realise.

With the trend to ‘replace’ software engineers with ‘AI’, it’s going to get a lot worse.

Ditto Dedja. I'm in software (a Business Analyst). My job is making sure systems work before they are released to the business users/public and this sort of error should not occur, ever!

I agree, if AI is involved, anything could happen.

At a guess the password length enforcement is on the user end and not on replicated on the admin side. Any testing would have been on the user end, not the admin side.

All they need to do is reset the password again to the required length and advise you of the new one, admin (support) won’t need the current password. Then they should update their internal doco/procedures for support to manually keep password length during admin resets to within the required range.

Whether they bother to fix the admin side doesn’t practically matter then, until the next support dude does the same thing.

The last 24 hours. Pool pump ate it's bearings. Cordless phone died. AV receiver going into protection mode. Boot pc this morning and no video output, suspect graphics card on the way out..........sob....

That sucks … I guess you can’t look up online or call anyone to fix the pool pump and AVR.

Ouch, all happening.

If it's any consolation I took a bite out of a hamburger and an oil drop landed right next to my wilson and it won't fade or dry out properly, I won't be able to leave my office until I go home.
