      Also another reason i decided to do this, notice how much developers have support inside company... like they have 40 others DEVs, but its not the same with system admins and devops

      Of interesting note: In Windows NT4 and Windows 2000, Interix / WSU were "add on" components for Windows. But starting with 2003 R2 and going through 2008 R2, it was built in. Then it was discontinued. Then revived with the totally different system that we have today.

      Interix became integrated as a component of the regular Windows OS distribution as a component of Windows Server 2003 R2 in December, 2005 at release 5.2 and was a component of the Windows Vista release as release 6.0 (RTM November, 2006). Windows Server 2008 had release 6.0. Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 included SUA 6.1. - wikipedia

      Kubernetes is 3 things:

      a container orchestrator (vsphere for containers) a container config manamement (ansible for container infrastructure) a version control system with rollback capabilities (by default stores the last 10 configs for a deployment)

      @stacksofplates said in Spin VMs quickly with KVM + virt-sysprep:

      I usually use virt-builder to build the image, and then I can clone from that. Then you have nice really small images to build from.

      Have you ever created your own repo using virt-builder-repository?

      No I've always pulled from upstream. I've honestly never looked into that before.

      This is what I do when I use nohup.
      I usually create a file with the current pid just in case I need to stop it.

      nohup wget 'https://example.com/fedora.iso' > wget_fedora.log 2>&1 & echo $! > wget_fedora_pid.txt kill -9 `cat wget_fedora_pid.txt` rm wget_fedora_pid.txt

      You have not seen much of "real business" then, I cannot disclose info, but I think this corp is like multi-million revenue.

      Thats how it is ins real world, they get bloated and move slower, thats what happen when corp grow, if you keep it startup-ish vibe and "move fast and break things" you will be running the latest but not everyone is like that.

      Besides windows painfull upgrading process helps you to stick to whats running.

      And no on the client side, its all Win10 ... sadly we use Win10 to manage Linux machines 😞
      I hate that mremote/putty shit

      This is false.

      Big business makes quite an effort to stay current in the Windows world, especially if they are multi-billion $$ company. They HAVE to. It's not a choice.

      It's constant change going on, all the time. 2019 is current, when a server is needed at all. Most are really going serverless when possible, lots of SaaS, Cloud, etc.

      You might be thinking of U.S. defense companies. I mean they run old shit and pay millions and billions to maintain OAF software support.

      I have to disagree: I've recently started a job as a GE/BH oil and gas consultant and they proudly stick on win 7...
      They also stick with old unpatched software of all kinds... Maybe it is their italian BU only... But it is rather embarassing...

      Proudly? What is there to be proud about running 10+ year old software? What are the chances that they are still running on the hardware from back then? Granted you fairly easily still get OEM machines with Windows 7 Pro will into 2016, if not even early 2017 - but still... The writing was on the wall.

      Even with the number of hacks that happen every day, clearly enough hasn't happened to people/companies to make the rest stand up and take notice that running old software on machines that connect to the internet - and really, how much doesn't these days - to update their equipment. Unfortunately, this might be one of the first things for business where they can't use it until it dies (I'm talking about IT based technology here) - and I think that is the hard point. Of course businesses that are doing well, and understand efficiencies have been upgrading as the tech makes sense to, well before things like EOL software/hardware come into play, but then many other businesses that run on a shoe string just don't.

      Sorry for the late replay. Really busy days...
      They are specifically pay extra money to MS to have extra support for win7.
      The "proudly" is part was mostly a joke. Reality is that big corps in Italy have very unaware decision makes.

      They stick with really unprepared supplieres/staff which fill companies with tons of useless gear and SW which easily became unmanageable and a migration nigthmare. so that they easily reach a tech debt in few years (use a phisical token to auth in a vpn used to access the private github repo. Which runs over https...).
      On the other side they simply check the bill to be sure it stays well under a predefined threshold simply wasting that money.

      My last effort is to maintain a ui written by the wrong guy in the wrong language and used to keep alive a software whose user manual has been published in 1988!

      And this is the second big corp I've knowleged of. The other one buyed the company I worked in. I've friends there and the logic is the same...

      We say that their IT depts are salary factories: they leverage the ignorance of decison makers to auto feed them selves and be sure to increase the amount of men hours required to housekeep the whole infra...

      @Pete-S said in AI will replace managers and automation will replace workers:

      For instance, how many worked in the tech industry a hundreds years ago? Right.
      How many worked in tourism? How many worked in sports and recreation? Beauty industry?
      When one door closes, another door opens.
      Nobody is getting replaced.

      Exactly, there are so many industries that can't hire today because more necessary industries have all the workers. People will move from necessity to opportunity for a long, long time to come.

      We don't even have to begin to worry about this stuff until we are all on single income households, everyone has time to not work and go to university instead, all workers are skilled, and the remaining people only need to work four to sixteen hours a week. Right now, people are working 80 hours a week, dual incomes, and there is so much more to get done.

      @scottalanmiller

      Hi,

      Is suse Linux free to download and use without commerical support ?

      Yes, both Leap (LTS) and Tumbleweed (rolling updates) versions. Suse has had a free option since the 1990s. I brought Suse to IBM in 2000 as our main platform in manufacturing.

      @marcinozga said in Why containers are free and easy but managing them is hard and costly:

      You're comparing apples to oranges. Hypervisors vs k8s makes no sense. And what makes you think that running containers in production is only viable with tools like k8s? That's like saying running vm in production only makes sense on openstack. Docker for example can easily be managed with Ansible, or if you want web tool, Portainer, including managing swarm clusters.

      Nomad is another popular one that does not only containers but a few different types of jobs.
