The most established option is Ceph, which has a (optional) web ui too. It's what I use and I'm happy with it. Before investigating it for eventual production use, I heard quite a bit about how complicated it was to use, but for m

Ceph is demanding to learn, but once you do It Just Works very reliably. The cephadm tool makes it quite easy to bootstrap and manage a vanilla cluster, I'd highly recommend bootstrapping a toy cluster with it if you're interested

I know ansible is not sexy or resource efficient, but it would be a handful of lines in a single task.yml and it would work reliably out of the box. Previously the part that was too much effort for me to be reliable was often bootstrapping

This is correct, and is also true for healthy volunteers in clinical trials. I did them when I was a young broke college student, 100% of the healthy volunteers were where what I would consider to be quite poor.

Unfortunately (at least in my opinion) the way to mitigate it is make contacts, friends, colleagues etc. Meet people, stay in touch with them. In my experience relationships are by far the most important aspect of a career. I'm not nat

Not just the production of the finished boards, but also marketing, distribution to vendors and support/RMA for defective products. There is profit in this, but it’s also a whole set of skills that doesn’t really make sense for Nvidia.
