@sysadmin1138@ngmx.com I've gone from being a software engineer to DevOps. I've told myself that there is a lot of back and forth, but really, software engineering was a bit of a dead end in terms of my wider career goals.
Because my previous job was C++. And nearly everyone who wants C++ is doing something unethical.

@sysadmin1138@ngmx.com I still code a bit - but mostly short stuff in Python or whatever. More often I debug third party software and end up producing a usually relatively small patch ... which we often have to maintain indefinitely, depending on how keen upstream are.
