Would you rather... Looking for clever questions
-
Would you rather get crypto-locked, or a client get crypto-locked?
-
Would you rather have to support and implement a system you know full well won't meet the needs of the client or lose a client who's paying you top dollar for the aforementioned services to someone else?
-
huh - wouldn't the answer for an MSP be always be to the the one you can bill get the problem?
-
I think in would you rather "yourself or a client" it is always the client. Let's be realistic - we never want a problem to be our fault or even our problem. Plus clients pay for service, that earns money when they've been careless or unfortunate. Not that we want it to happen, but we certainly never want it to be our fault!

That's what I was thinking. Our job at an MSP is often to solve customer disasters. It's not that we want them to have disasters, any more than the fire department doesn't want peoples' houses to burn, but our job is to handle that stuff routinely.

I don't think that there is much of a question there. Would you like a great seatbelt or to never need one?

100% Working Backups... Solid reliable systems can fail.

I'd go the other way and create backups of the working system but I grok where you're coming from

I'm not sure that's a good comparison.
A solid reliable system does not imply it will never fail, but to never need a seatbelt means I can clearly go without it.

I'm pretty sure the point of the question was that it was completely reliable since the alternative was completely reliable. If it wasn't then again, no question, one was totally reliable with the backups.
Honestly, impossible questions are pointless. Nothing is perfectly reliable, so there is no point.

Exactly, so sort of some funniness, I'm not really sure why I would read about two fictional non-nonsensical situations.

Once we are asking fanciful, impossible questions... what is the point? We might as well talk about fairies and talking animals taking over jobs.

Well, Youtube does have the armies of code monkeys.
