Every single production monitoring software I’ve seen on any machine I’ve ever run had some way to make it look like 100% uptime to whoever looks, and that hack was found within a single shift.
Turns out the most effective system for monitoring production is to actually see if someone is producing what they’re supposed to in a reasonable amount of time
Ok, but management is lazy, incompetent and/or suffering from imposter syndrome (rightful for some). So they don’t know what reasonable is, or what they need to produce, only need to make a number match a projection.

Well the consultant I’m paying half a million dollars says otherwise.
As someone working for a consulting firm … Yeah … Checks out.
I mean I’m not seeing that money but also it’s wild to me what companies are willing to spend money on that’s basically toss it into a fire.
Really goes to show how this shit is all made up.
