Here at TripAdvisor, we give engineers root on EVERY box.

Ugh. I understand the principle of empowering developers, but some basic security would be nice...

I thought Tarsnap would be handing out S&W Model 500s as corporate swag for internship applicants.

At least seems like that kind of place from the outside: jail yard metal table, BSD boxen, a Colombian silver Peso, K&R and Plauger, bottle o' jack, dot-matrix printouts of kernel panics, cute unmentionables left by last night's mistaken young thang .. "This is Tarsnap, Asok. You can break hearts but you can't break servers."

Yeah, I wonder who cleans up after this. The guy who has root "just because we give it to all developers" and makes a mess and seriously breaks the production site is most likely not the person you want cleaning it up when time is of the essence.
