  • I need a documenter!

    I have a head full of stuff that hasn’t had time to be documented, and being a single point of knowledge isn’t job security, it’s a major risk.

    My code gets documented. But so much infrastructure is just held in my head as senior SysAdmin. Wherever possible I just have a ride-along “up-skilling” (works like a RAID mirror for my brain).








  • No. Some of us were already there.

    Lifetime Microsoft expert here, I have had machines with Linux in one flavour or another for 15+ years at least.

    But for ease of use I just keep coming back to Windows… Because I know it backwards and upside down.

    The structure of it makes sense to me. And I have ADHD so I have a terrible working memory and Linux relies FAR too much on command console to do anything effective.

    But Linux is hands-down the better system to get away from Microsoft’s enshitification of Windows. But I personally like Windows better.

    So I will always run both. But if I need to be really productive, Windows Desktop it is. If I need a server, Linux every time. (Unless it’s MS SQL or a website).

    Because I have a family subscription. YT and YT music for the whole family, means my kids are ad free and managed. I use the heck out of it and can afford it.

    I don’t pay for Spotify, and with the price hike Disney + is about to get the eye patch treatment.

    But I really do use the heck out of YT, so for me it’s worth it.

    But if you don’t see the value, do what you gotta do.
