Been there done that - SRE/DevOps/SecEng/SysEng/SoftEng
Thank you NVIDIA - for once (not twice though - you've given us nothing but despair for Linux+GPU).
Folks need to be sufficiently motivated to learn it. All hell break loose when `RTFM` becomes taken offensively; What do I know - I am just a weird guy with a beard.
And folks always wanted to type the commands without RTFM'ing - now we have two problems instead of one.
Also, these were hard learned tricks YOLO'ing until 3.30AM debugging a failed DNS clusters or why the HSM suddenly decided to trip up at 5AM! Nobody even cares about the things we learn these days - Google and then your AI agent already does 98% of what I know already. So, let them blow up the clusters and the racks - your pal AI agent knows. Go ask them instead.

The message of the post is what _should_ hopefully matter to a reader.
And, not the fact that it was written by an LLM.
I am a technical guy at heart; also an introverted extrovert. I hate writing docs that are to be written to satisfy someone else's metrics. For it to be a tickbox'ed item.
I delegate that to an LLM. I want to spend my time solving interesting challenges instead.
So, Mr. Cantrill, you got a problem with that? So be it.
Dude, where's the src for GPU drivers and the firmware blobs?
Sorry, you can't say it is one of the most open labs without qualifying a proper response to the question above.
Let's replace these motherfuckers.
Done it. Therefore, I flex. I was talking about clueless folks like yourself.
> Again everything you've said does not really apply here or is impractical.
YMMV. Always.
and why is plex not in it's own VLAN with a egress FW rules to second with?
lastly, why aren't you running snort/suricata to inspect the packets originating at plex?
let me solve this problem for you - it probably doesn't bother you at all.
otherwise, you'd scratched your itch a long time ago.
> Clueless lol.
It's ok to be clueless. And, it's ok to be working for a FAANG and be clueless too.

Precisely. Take the `TL` title out the door. Take the `ego` out the door.
Then, step in the door - as a friend, with empathy, proactive listening and support the engineers.
Round-table `discussions`. Not Waterfall.
My 2 cents.
I agree. There is a business opportunity here. Right in the middle of your sentences.
Hint: Context-Aware WAF.
Many platforms have emerged in the last decade - some called it smart WAF, some called it nextgen WAF.. All vaporware garbage that consumes tons and tons of system resource and still manages to do a shit job of _actually_ WAF'ing web requests.
To be truly context-aware, you need to compute a priori about the situation - the user, the page, the interactions etc.
THIS.
What do you truly truly enjoy?
It's easy for me to ask you question.
Often times, the answer lies within.
PS: Please enjoy the time with your child; It doesn't come often in a life time :)
The reason I think self-critique takes a rather extreme turn is because of anxiety. If we analyse the root cause, there may be more than _just_ anxiety at play but I do feel it plays a significant role(IANAD though; just an observer).
Every programmer first and foremost are humans. And as humans, we are bounded by the highs and lows of the software we develop. Some of the low self-esteem can come because _life_; some might be because they hold their bar too high to achieve dramatically; some because, they might think of engineering software as an easy-peasy task but find that it can _sometime_ come with unseen/unheard baggages; all or partial part of the aforementioned causes could lead further to be in said state of mind.
To some extent, we(as in software people) need to be brave, hold our self beliefs/values, try to elevate our self-esteem and recommend our friends/family/colleagues to do the same. It's this collective esteem that will carry us together in this journey. It's not easy to overcome fear, anxiety, depression or any other state of mind(IANAD though; just an observer). I am cognisant of the fact that it is definitely easier said than done but do note that humans are capable of achieving marvelous things both intellectually and viscerally.
Perhaps, try to be social, go out and about, have hobbies, meditation, hiking, exercise - just to name a few that helped others I have met.
Last but not the least, I cannot let myself buy the argument that someone thinks of themselves as dumb. It's extremely more likely that one has not had the opportunity to have the __foundational__ understanding and the shift required to think laterally in those terms. To acquire those, perhaps try to read more books and experiment more. These are more valuable use of time IMHO than to be harsh on oneself. But, to re-iterate, we are all humans at the end of the day.
If you want go deep, you will need to refresh/learn few key mathematical foundations that form the basis of QC. They are definitely not hard IMHO. If so, then read Michael Nielsen and Isaac Chuang excellent book https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_Computation_and_Quantu...
