I like devops. It means you get to get ahead of all the issues that you could potentially find in cybersecurity. Sure it's complicated, but at least you'll never be bored. I think the hardest part is that you always feel like you don't have enough time to do everything you need to.

DevOps teams are always running slightly behind and rarely getting ahead of technical debt because they are treated as cost centers by the business (perpetually understaffed) and as “last minute complicated requests that sound simple enough” and “oops our requirements changed” dumping grounds for engineering teams.

Plus, the ops side has a lot of challenges that can really be a different beast compared to the application side. The breadth of knowledge needed for the job is staggering and yet you also need depth in terms of knowing how operating systems and networks work.


Huh? That doesn’t track with my experience. I spent a long time trying to find out how to enable line wrap, and Zed’s settings are more extensive than most editors.

Plus a game catalog that stretches back some 30 years?

More like 50 years if you consider emulators (RetroArch is available on Steam).

It doesn't even need to be available on Steam to be fair. You can run whatever games you want. You could even run a Nintendo Switch emulator if you want

True. And that is the strength of the PC platform, its openness and being able to run whatever you want.

And +X years, because you could write your own games for it and install them without begging for permission from Valve.

Tung Tung Tung Sahur?


A small number of countries now. The rest of the world in 2027 and beyond.

The kubernetes provider mostly just works exactly as you expect

> they cannot both operate there and break the law.

Clearly they were doing exactly that until yesterday?


Bwuh, I thought they had a new name for a smaller iPhone, but it’s just a bag.

Maybe, but I’m not perfect either. The scale is just different. It’s clear that the standard for rich people isn’t all that high, so in the company of the remaining 1B+ crowd he looks pretty decent.

Something like bottom line up front would work for resumes as well.
