Yeah sorry I regret posting the comment, was a bit snarky. I've been working 25 years now. Everything is different now. I dont understand a lot of where infrastructure is going, it seems every year more complicated and expensive with little upside. I do think people are interested in your deeper knowledge, but it isn't the green people. Its the guys doing 2-3rd line support for more advanced problems. They're likely overwhelmed already though, everyone is drowning.



While there is a movement to serverless codeless whizbang cloudhosting....I think it's over represented on HN. There's still a ton of Enterprise IT that's hasn't made the transition, and it's often being managed by green staff.


I really wish there was a "no bullshit guide to cloud" that describes how it works behind the scenes - stuff like what a "serverless VPC connector" really is behind the scenes.

Sadly the only people who could write such a book are likely under NDA from the cloud provider.
