I've observed if I say nothing (because I simply don't know how to react), opinionated people think you agree with them, which I don't. I don't care....
I think this is the best answer. Think of it in terms of what would the boss (a good boss, that is) say? I can actually hear my managers say this. Many of the options here could be taken by the other person as you thinking you’re “better than” them. This is a fair and accurate response that doesn’t get personal.
This happens a lot: I apply for a job and they ask for my complete address. Why? I would understand if they just want to know what city/town I’m in: That has bearing on how easily I can get to the office....
Work history is what references are for. They do not need your SSN until they start withholding SS benefits for you. I think I used to include my address on ye olde papier résumés I would send out, so not sure how much I’d want to die on that particular hill.
It’s important to remember you are not looking for a family to join, you’re literally marketing your skillset to employers looking to hire. It feels dehumanizing because it is. Before hiring you, companies don’t really care about your personality. If they decide to hire you, good companies consider how your personality will fit in with the current team. Also, who you know can be a big part of finding a job. Always has been, in fact. Marketing yourself is really nothing new. The particulars have changed, but the core process is basically the same.
Sounds like a good idea on the surface, but I’ve read elsewhere that office space isn’t really suited to living space, and converting it is cost prohibitive in many cases because the buildings were never intended for residential use. Still, in a crisis there are always creative solutions to address some hurdles. Problem is that takes political will. Something that’s hard to find, at least in the US.
Why can’t you do both? Sometimes, have an opinion about a thing, and other times you maybe just don’t care enough to devote the CPU/RAM to it. I love the way you phrased it though!
I manage hundreds of servers at work. They each have a BMC (remote power on/off, reset, KVM, etc) and we need to use those features frequently. I’ve been using a Google Docs spreadsheet to track their URLs, what each box is used for, specs, etc but it feels like a dynamic web app would be better for this purpose. Does anyone...
This seems like a good use case for a cluster manager. I’ve used xCAT in the past and recently Lenovo has an interesting project called Confluent that includes a web interface. A paid option would be Bright. These are made to manage hundreds to thousands of nodes.
I have a well pump in my garage that seems to have stopped working. When plugging it in, I hear it running, but the pressure never goes up, and the motor never stops. No idea what I’m doing with this thing.
“Good” as in something that looks just as good as an RH cert on my CV. I was considering LFCS, but I haven’t come across any job listings mention LFCS (at least, not where I live).
This is the straw that broke the camel’s back. Red Hat has gotten greedier and greedier since IBM bought it. 99.99% of my work is new RHEL installs, and we are looking at Ubuntu & SLES lately.
Some, yes. I think it still being Red Hat adjacent has us talking about the other two more. Should be interesting to see how it plays out. I doubt much will change and we’ll have to keep having difficult conversations with customers about RH license costs.
This is something I’ve been wondering for awhile: if I were a mod on Reddit, and was being threatened by the admins to bend the knee, as it were, my response would likely be to remove any and all tools i had put in place to help me moderate, and say, “goodbye.”
I’m sure there’s something I’m just not understanding, but why isn’t this happening?

The fun thing about needing a job is that all the advice is either incredibly demeaning or incredibly futile. Usually both

What do you use to track BMCs/KVMs/IPMI?

well pump help

Now that everyone hates Red Hat, what's a good alternative to RHCSA/RHCE?
