You don't see well written, solidly thought out code to be the norm, either,
for pretty much the same reason. It takes experience and guided thought to get
to this point, and seasoned sysadmins (who have this worked out) aren't
exactly the crowd considered to be sexy nowadays.

- dozzie 10y agoI agree. I'm a sysadmin myself, and the best congratulations I've ever had was after heavy rewrite of a firewall script (old one was a mix of three different styles, unmanagable mess after several years of work), when my colleague asked me when I'm going to deploy the new firewall, two or three weeks after it actually went into production. It was so smooth that nobody noticed.
