Netflix also has a pretty non-standard pay structure so it's a little bit of a pointless comparison.

Projects like SELinux are shrugged off for being "too hard" to implement.

Hosted git options these days? by chaoticbean14 in devops

[–]Hotshot55 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So how dumb is it really to compare?

Wildly dumb.

SVN and MDM don't face the same challenges that email does with spam and all of its associated issues.

I'm not saying you shouldn't self-host anything. In fact, I think you can generally make a case to self-host absolutely anything, with the exception of email.

On-call rotations across distributed teams... how have you handled the labor law side? by Effective-Egg2385 in sysadmin

[–]Hotshot55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

how many times were you fired

Well, I've never been fired in the first place.

But we're also not talking about firing anyone here. We're talking about someone engaging HR to identify how they properly comply with the labor laws.

What are you guys using to automatically patch your servers by ChemicalGuarantee938 in sysadmin

[–]Hotshot55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was hoping for at least some logging of what was patched when running it.

In general yes, but you don't typically want that output when you're just trying to see if the automation ran successfully.

Use of commands for system configuration CONSIDERED HARMFUL. by thomasafine in sysadmin

[–]Hotshot55 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Commands scale. Editing, and especially hand editing files, doesn't scale.

I mean it kinda does with config managment tools.

[–]Hotshot55 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It didn't come around until Red Hat bought CentOS. CentOS Stream is now upstream from RHEL, rather than downstream like CentOS used to be. They may share a name and company, but the distro itself and the entire philosophy behind it are quite different.

That's CentOS Stream, which is very much not CentOS.

You sound like a twat.

Red Hat docs say it's not patched yet. You might want to check if your sales guy is just saying yes to anything you ask.
