Hardest part of using them is remembering to do any config changes in Ansible repos and not directly in config files.
I have diverging logic, branching off usernames and group memberships to treat given machine as "personal" or "work" - and then configure certain settings differently. I'm using ansible-vault for secrets like SSH keys, etc.
New machine provisioning is usually just installation of a package manager (if not present, like brew), and installation of Ansible.
I'm impressed with the progress.
I'm also scared about privacy of the data. How will that work with installing windows in business environments with sensitive IP?
All my contact with their customer support was stellar.
The added benefit of Python is the ease of using something like Jupyter notebooks, which make it trivial to iterate.
(disclaimer: I coded more in Ruby than in Python, but I still enjoy both)
The length to which I needed to go to when I needed to do this recently on a video which was shared with me was mind boggling. I'm not sure if this is because the video was in Files and not in Gallery, but it shouldn't really matter. If anything, that would be exactly where I'd expect to have such a feature.
If only there would be a flagship phone which has all: an awesome camera (I snap loads of photos, the whole "best camera is the one you have with yourself" mantra), big battery and a Micro SD slot, it would be an instant buy for me.
So far I've been upgrading my Samsung Galaxy from 2 -> 4 -> 8+ as that was the closest I could find to what I wanted from the phone, but I'm happy to change to any other brand.
Both are bad, right?
