If your job is wanting you to learn new tech. Block off time on your calendar and learn the new tech on the job. Once 5pm hits, log off. You have a life to live!

IaC from an infrastructure and security perspective means so much more and Terraform is not "what you write" is the environment. You have drift and name other issues natively to the product.

I think it is time we move on to the next era of infrastructure management.

After working with Terraform for name years now. I have grievances. Most of them being, the tool is marketed as something it is not. And it is glorified by the community for something it is not.

It requires so much care and feeding that any infrastructure engineer can't just pick it up.

I'm curious, how much SysAdmin content have you seen? I see a large amount of folks creating content for Cybersecurity and Development. Not much SysAdmin content. So, how much have you seen?

Oh, perfect. Trump has put Musk and his staffers in charge of investigating how Jeffrey Goldberg ended up in the Signal chat. I’m sure we can all expect a thorough, unbiased report any day now (Sarcasm).

I have had the "pleasure" of working with 3 enterprise architects for the past 10 months. In this time, I have learned exactly what not to do. Guess what it is? DO NOT be a hinderance to the business... Be a center of acceleration.

They did not get the memo...

Stop settling for lesser cups. It’s time to shell out for a mug from The Onion.

Well, I have a controversial opinion. Terraform only works if the entire business buys into it. When you enter a business, that may not be possible. I have begun integrated ideologies from Terraform but utilizing AzureCLI w/ PowerShell Az allows for both auditing the environment and deploying in one

As someone who used to daily and uses Linux at work currently for infrastructure. Desktop Linux sucks, that is all.

Looking for an antivirus this holiday season because your family member or friend got a new laptop or desktop? Just use Micrsoft Defender. Uninstall McAfee and just use Defender. "But I have a friend who swares by Bitdefender or Malwarebytes"...

Just use Defender. It's "free" and does all the same.

Every time I read the local news and see a teacher who was awarded a $250 grant for her classroom, I understand that she spent hours of her own time applying for it. Writing it. Going through a submission process.

For $250. For her classroom…

Found a good work around for those with lactose intolerance.

Inspired by Silver Diners Lox Avocado Toast.
