So just like if you ran the PSAUX command, you see all the processes running.
Oh yeah, you see the top processes, yeah.
And so you just run top and then it's basically that every second being refreshed or whatever timer you give it.
But one of the bets I made was if I get this to work, you have to buy pizza for the whole floor for a week.
Every day we get a new order.
And because he promised like, Kelsey, if you get this to work, I'll buy you a steak dinner.
And at the time, I still am.
I was vegetarian, so I don't eat steak.
But here's what I would like instead.
You got to buy pizza for the whole floor.
Now, I don't know how strategic I was thinking, but I figured that I could score some points with the whole team from turning it into a I succeeded to a we succeeded.
And then people eating together is one good way of doing it.
And I remember after it worked, he was like, what's the order?
And I just ordered, you know, pizza from one place and just put it in the middle.
Everyone's like, what's the pizza for?
Because usually you only get this for special events, like for the thing we did.
And the next day, some more pizza and some more pizza.
And so when I got that accomplishment, I was like, okay, this is what maturity looks like.
It's not about just having the right solution.
You literally have to get consensus, buy in, make sure, and then your reputation's on the line.
