No, it really doesn't. This is akin to saying because people take out second mortgages they really want their money back that they bought their house with.

Being able to leverage a committed sum of money via collateralization is as old as financial systems themselves.

If you can find any specific reasons for your take I'm very open to hearing about them?

This, exactly. This is basically the entire pitch for my DevOps as a Service business. Let your developers focus on the core product, we'll handle the infrastructure. I don't think employers always realize the productivity and benefits of letting their developers truly focus.

This article was written in 2014 but I can personally attest from my experience it is still just as relevant and true. As the owner / operator of a DevOps As a Service company I see all too often people trying to replace dedicated infrastructure and cloud architecture experts with "Someone who has more of a 70% developer 30% devops background". It's unfair to the person being hired with unrealistic expectations and typically damaging to the company in terms of lost time and productivity.

Very inspiring. Coming across a "geerlingguy" ansible repo in my searches for pre-existing ansible roles is always a treat as I know it will be solid quality.

Went to your website, don't see a careers or jobs page?

Can you provide sources for this? As an ex-bridgewater employee from everything I've seen, read, and heard this is an incredibly false statement.

Kids?
