Think twice about that. After Snowden's data dump, the NSA announced that they have a goal to remove all system administrators from their computer systems. Can it be done? I wouldn't bet against it. The US government has that goal and money is no object. Once they do it it's only a matter of time before it's part of all companies. It's not now but it will happen.
- deafpolygon 4y agoWhat does that have to do with sysadmins? Snowden's data dump was what, almost a decade ago? That's like saying that the NSA has a goal to remove all janitors. Can it be done? I wouldn't bet against it. The US Government has the goal and money is no object. At the end of the day, someone has to go in and replace the parts, troubleshoot issues, configure stuff. Those are sysadmins. Just like janitors still need to clean the shit out of toilets.
