As a systems administrator now SRE, it's never really been about my code... if code at all.

Where I used to be able to get by with babysitting shell scripts that only lived on the server, we're now in a world with endless abstraction. I don't hazard to guess; just learn what I can to remain adaptable.

The fundamentals tend to generally apply
