chillax. i remember the linux and OSS FUD in the mid-90s while attending UTexas. but yes, high TCO is a reality. for example, imagine you're asked to partner with/consult data engineering devs and recent college grads. and now imagine this team needs to stand-up airflow and implement OLAP pipelines in less than 3 months. big corp X wants this accomplished with low-IQ linux newbs, many not accustomed to a terminal because windows "point and click thingies" makes work easier. big corp's C-Suite decided to layoff experienced linux talent in 2023 so they're kinda stuck. yeah, not ideal. mix in Copilot to further confuse inexperienced juniors. shit breaks, nobody really understands linux they way they should. you're off to the races. linux training $$$ comes into focus, and that's just the start. big corp X throws money at the problem because they can't measure their total addressable market. data inconsistencies all over the place. nothing's free. and yes, i enjoy profiting from this nonsense.

still wood. /ducks

actually, it's not really free. TCOO can skyrocket if you don't know what you're doing.

i bet she already runs that household.

yup. this looks is the current trend. no way i trust someone who looks like that.

uncle bob is probably smiling ear to ear. he deserves it. i met him at sfo in 2012 during confluent. the guy is wise and an absolute wizard. the longer this plays out, his pov becomes more important because he's right. software engineering, as a discipline, should require higher credentials and licensing. he took a lot of shit for his takes. but i agree with him 10000%. https://dev.to/bosepchuk/is-uncle-bob-serious-dhi?ref=highscalability.com

even if he did, would he admit it? would anyone list CS on their resume after this?

true. i know several clients with 0 QA teams. downsized and asked each domain to test their own work. lovely

did he almost die on the show? lost his voice...sounded like shit. chat-gpt can help update his resume.

the ultimate chaos monkey strategy

/linux

yes. approved.

yup, gonna say fuck it and just goof off all day . buuuurp drink more. enjoy life.

i know her. her name is "Shae" and does therapeutic message. She's a senior at texas state, working on her biology degree. found her on backpage back in the day.

agile will continue to obliterate the industry. pms have a way of re-inventing themselves in large orgs.
