Yep, the police are public servants. When you're on the clock, you work for the people.

So have you been laid off or fired several times in the past few years? Do they tell you its because you can't do frontend or is it for performance issues? I feel like there's some key information missing here.

I see the opposite as someone born and living in San Francisco. Growing up in the city, we had arcades, bowling alleys, mini golf, Lan Party Cafe's, etc.

Then the city got more and more expensive, and businesses couldn't afford the rent / leases in the city anymore.

Affordable recreation isn't available in SF and that leads me to just stay at home as an adult instead of going out and doing something that doesn't involve drinking.

Churches don't pay taxes. They collect money from attendee's to pay for the real estate they occupy.

Any other gathering / community has to deal with these real world problems before they can attract people.

In my college years, there were clubs or fraternities, and they could use classrooms or student unions as low cost resources to gather in person and foster community. I think that's a barrier as an adult.

Yep. Also besides Lan parties, we had the N64, which allowed 4 peoplo play together. GoldenEye and various Mario games were a blast. the next generation had Halo and linking Xbox's together. Now a days I don't think kids or teens are having that same kind of fun we did back in the day.

I'm interested in knowing more about how you guys implemented the operator model and decided on those tools. Was there a book or anything that was helpful in all of this?

I don't think they believe its a hoax. A lot of it is also hoping someone else will solve the problem for them. Or because climate change hasn't dramatically changed their normal lives yet that forces them for action. People are not really good at preventing problems, hence why history tends to repeat itself.

People in developed countries can barely afford to live on their own, let alone buy a home.

The hardest thing about developing linux skills is having consistent exposure. At a work setting its a lot easier because you are hosting applications that people will use. So people will notice if the application stops working, and its someone job to figure out why. The application might have crashed, the disk might be full, the network might be down. As you troubleshoot issues you gain experience and you remember more. The closest thing to at home is running something like a plex server or even your own ftp/dropbox clone. Something where other people will use it, which ofrces you to make sure its always running, needs to be updated because of OS updates or app updates, and possibly needing to expand it.

As someone in DevOps, the cool thing about the field is that people come from different skillsets. You can be a developer that works at a startup that needed to learn how to support your applications and become proficient in infrastructure and SRE. You can come from IT/Sys Admin and get teamed up with developers providing them Ci/CD pipelines and platforms. You can come from the Cloud world and expand your cloud skills into DevOps. Like being a developer, at the end of the day its solving problems and painpoints. Being on-call and waking up at 3AM because of an application going down, you learn and are motivated very quickly in figuring out how not to have that happen ever again.
