Everything in IT infrastructure is done "as code" now. If you know how to code, but want to do something with real hardware and solve real problems, I'd go that route. To be more specific, IT Storage has a massive shortage of people, and it is weirdly neglected as a target career by younger folks.

I know how to code in python, powershell, C, REST APIs, etc., but I cannot stand just sitting and coding for any length of time. HOWEVER I do like writing snippets of code to solve problem and automate infrastructure. Look a NetApp certifications, Pure Storage, or one of the other leading vendors. If you're already familiar with S3 protocol / Object Storage, look at those options. I had a position open that paid $120-140k starting salary that we had open for 9 months last year until it was cancelled. We interviewed a mountain of people, we just couldn't find a solid candidate, and the bar was pretty low. Storage is also becoming a more and more critical part of security, as protecting intellectual property stored on storage is critical for practically every major company.

I work in IT and had to abandon Firefox because of compatibility issues that came up on a regular basis. it appears companies are simply not using it as part of their QA anymore. Also, in general the GUI theming has issues for me with the font and distinguishing highlights with my crappy vision. I tried every theme out there and for some reason apparently people writing themes just don't care to make it so you can see what is highlighted and what is not. Even The default theme sucks in my opinion. There were a number of other nits that I just kept having issues with - getting prompted on eBay to verify my identity for no reason, repeatedly, which doesn't happen on chromium and stuff like that.

I wish Apple would adopt the Firefox rendering engine and take Safari cross platform. It would give Firefox a fighting chance at the overall market.

"She fell funny"

Well, fork, I hadn't looked at this team behind Brave. I use both Firefox and Brave. Bye bye Brave...

I am using Sync, and I paid for a year of it. A year from now, I'll evaluate and maybe pick something else. Do I care if it costs a tiny bit of $ for a solid app experience that performs better than the rest, because it has dedicated development resources? Nope. Having read the details on what data is collected, do I have privacy concerns? Nope. Do I think folks have gone a little over the top about certain things? Yes. Bad enough having to leave reddit without making it even more complicated.

Delusional that they think distributing that book in that country will promote tolerance. "So, tell me more about your 'Prophet' that marries 9 year old girls...".

**#Yet another anti-abortion anti-clean air GOP piece of garbage. From her bio: ** New Hampshire Attorney General Clean air emissions standards Ayotte joined Attorneys General from eight other states to sue federal regulators over a rules change that made clean air emissions standards for power plants less strict and eliminated clean air reporting and monitoring requirements.[16][17]

In 2005, the court agreed with Ayotte and the others that the Environmental Protection Agency must measure changes in the emissions from power plants and could not exempt power plants from reporting their emissions.[17]

Prosecution of murder cases As assistant attorney general, Ayotte prosecuted two defendants for the 2001 Dartmouth College murders in Etna, New Hampshire.

As attorney general, Ayotte prosecuted the high-profile case surrounding the 2006 murder of Manchester police officer Michael Briggs in the line of duty. It resulted in a conviction and death penalty sentence.[18] Members of Briggs's family praised her leadership in television ads for her 2010 Senate campaign.[19][20]

Ayotte v. Planned Parenthood of Northern New England Main article: Ayotte v. Planned Parenthood of Northern New England In 2003, the United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire found the Parental Notification Prior to Abortion Act, a New Hampshire law requiring parental notification of a minor's abortion, unconstitutional, and enjoined its enforcement. In 2004, New Hampshire Attorney General Peter Heed appealed the ruling to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, which affirmed the district court's ruling. In 2004, Ayotte appealed the First Circuit's ruling to the Supreme Court, over the objection of incoming Democratic Governor John Lynch. Ayotte personally argued the case before the Supreme Court.[citation needed] The Supreme Court unanimously vacated the district court's ruling and remanded the case back to the district court, holding that it was improper for the district court to invalidate the statute completely instead of just severing the problematic portions of the statute or enjoining the statute's unconstitutional applications.[21] In 2007, the law was repealed by the New Hampshire legislature, mooting the need for a rehearing by the district court.[22]

In 2008, Planned Parenthood sued to recover its attorney fees and court costs from the New Hampshire Department of Justice.[23] In 2009, Ayotte, as attorney general, authorized a payment of $300,000 to Planned Parenthood to settle the suit.[24]

If by leftwing you actually mean we support science, facts, and freedom, yes, it's leftwing. If you're looking for and acceptance of book-banning, anti-science, anti-woman, anti-lgbtq, anti-vax, cook-the-planet, fascist, Russia-loving, Qanon-believing, insurrectionist support, then you want exploding-heads lemmy server. It's kind of hard to be "conservative" on the internet these days, because it implies support for that sort of stuff.

Well, what in the world is a "moderate" these days? I don't know of a middle stance anymore. On one side in the USA we have book-banning, anti-science, christofascist, anti-woman, anti-lgbtq, isolationist, traitors with the average IQ of a potato. On the other side we've got the Democrats, who's policies align with the 1990s GOP.

So, what is a "moderate"? You agree with abortion banning, are anti-vax, and deny climate change? BUT you don't believe in Jewish space lasers, you don't support insurrections, and you're ok with birth control?

You see the issue here? The tag "moderate" doesn't work anymore. Just as there's no middle ground between Ukraine and Russia. It's why nobody here is going to take you seriously. Go use one of the de-federated echo chambers if you want support for whatever crazy bits you believe.

The Linux Kernel and operating system in general. It is simultaneously my favorite and I hate that it killed my prior favorite, the SGI Irix operating system. I was there at the beginning, from kernel 1.1 through today. I remember telling regional directors at silicon graphics that Linux was the future and them disparaging that opinion.

Any recent Tesla model.
