Knock off the childish fucking gatekeeping and go back to reddit. It’s what the wider industry uses.

python is usually the next step up in admin land

python is a pretty standard install on linux systems since so many things like you’re talking about use it

You missed one:

• To let others at least have some insight into what you’re doing so you can take a freakin’ vacation every once in a while

Don’t take issue with the platform. Take issue with companies that are so fanatical with “we’re a microsoft/java/javascript/esperanto shop!” that they’d cram it into medical devices and nuclear reactor controls before doing some sort of sober domain analysis.

Everything has its own set of problems.

tldr is great. I can’t stand --help output that drones on like Proust.

Technical videos have helped me perfect my pronunciation of “umm” and “uhh.”

throw yourself to the wolves

From a historical standpoint, there is also the bad blood of ActiveX, Flash, Silverlight and early Java applets that still leaves a bad taste in people’s mouths. It has a slightly steeper uphill battle to fight.

Generally the most supported language on the tool/platform you want to target is the best one. Like SQL on databases, JS/ES in browsers, python in data science related stuff, etc. If multiple are heavily supported then just pick the one that’s the most comfortable.

It won’t fly. Not when a popular red meat election year topic is breaking google up and one such year is just around the corner.

I can think of surgeon examples but I’ve never heard of Recruiters Without Borders. Unless it’s just CapGemini

Fintech is easy to deal with in this regard.

“do you have code samples you can share?”

“would you be happy if an employee interviewed elsewhere and used your codebase for work samples?”

How to make lots of friends and enrich the lives of everyone around you:

It’s likely not the full story, but there were some crazy export restrictions in the 90s. Apple made a commercial poking at it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjkoYlpf3EA

BBSs had fidonet in 1993, if email, usenet and irc don’t count

They use Atlanta Metro, AWS and GCP as far as I know. I want to say they own the Oregon DC but can’t remember.

New personal goal: distribute gh commits over days to spell out words in the 52x7 profile commit graph

It’s all fun and games until it returns a “maybe”

I’m not really going to address the speaker directly since after reading NSF forums for a few years, I’m convinced aerospace engineers can devolve any innocent or academic discussion into 4chan levels at rates exceeding the speed of light. Of note: the speaker doesn’t speak to anything specific that is being worked on to address issues, and only addresses “linux” as a whole, which is about as useful as addressing SVR4 as a whole.

I will address the blog writer as not being particularly diligent in filling that gap, though. Here’s a few links of what’s going on in that realm since there’s people here of all walks and ages:

Wind River RTLinux

Zephyr Project

OSADL SIL2LinuxMP

Xenomai

Are you in the US? Try searching https://sam.gov/search for things like “platform”, “application”, “software”, etc and look through the RFPs. States and local governments pump them out, too
