python is usually the next step up in admin land
python is a pretty standard install on linux systems since so many things like you’re talking about use it

Don’t take issue with the platform. Take issue with companies that are so fanatical with “we’re a microsoft/java/javascript/esperanto shop!” that they’d cram it into medical devices and nuclear reactor controls before doing some sort of sober domain analysis.
Everything has its own set of problems.
tldr is great. I can’t stand --help output that drones on like Proust.
Technical videos have helped me perfect my pronunciation of “umm” and “uhh.”

From a historical standpoint, there is also the bad blood of ActiveX, Flash, Silverlight and early Java applets that still leaves a bad taste in people’s mouths. It has a slightly steeper uphill battle to fight.
Generally the most supported language on the tool/platform you want to target is the best one. Like SQL on databases, JS/ES in browsers, python in data science related stuff, etc. If multiple are heavily supported then just pick the one that’s the most comfortable.
I can think of surgeon examples but I’ve never heard of Recruiters Without Borders. Unless it’s just CapGemini
Fintech is easy to deal with in this regard.
“do you have code samples you can share?”
“would you be happy if an employee interviewed elsewhere and used your codebase for work samples?”
It’s likely not the full story, but there were some crazy export restrictions in the 90s. Apple made a commercial poking at it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjkoYlpf3EA
BBSs had fidonet in 1993, if email, usenet and irc don’t count
They use Atlanta Metro, AWS and GCP as far as I know. I want to say they own the Oregon DC but can’t remember.
I’m not really going to address the speaker directly since after reading NSF forums for a few years, I’m convinced aerospace engineers can devolve any innocent or academic discussion into 4chan levels at rates exceeding the speed of light. Of note: the speaker doesn’t speak to anything specific that is being worked on to address issues, and only addresses “linux” as a whole, which is about as useful as addressing SVR4 as a whole.
I will address the blog writer as not being particularly diligent in filling that gap, though. Here’s a few links of what’s going on in that realm since there’s people here of all walks and ages:
Often, it boils down to one common problem: Too much client-side JavaScript. This is not a cost-free error. One retailer realized they were losing $700,000 a year per kilobyte of JavaScript, Russell said.
“You may be losing all of the users who don’t have those devices because the experience is so bad,” he said.
They just didn’t link to the one retailer’s context. But it’s “bring back old reddit” energy directed at everything SPA-ish.
edit to give it a little personal context: I was stuck on geosat internet for a little while and could not use amazon’s site across the connection. I’m not sure if they’re the retailer mentioned. But the only way I could make it usable was to apply the ublock rule *.images-amazon.com/*.js^
described here.
What really stunk about it was that if you’re somewhere where geosat is/was the only option, then you’re highly dependent on online retail. And knowing how to manage ublock rules is not exactly widespread knowledge.
They’re very useful for the boilerplate stuff and it’s somewhat rewarding to type out 3-4 letters, hit tab and wind up with half a dozen lines in a bash script or config file.
They tend to get in the way more for complicated tasks, but I have learned to use them as a psychology trick: if I have writer’s block, I just let them pump out something wrong since it’s easier to critique a blob of text than a blank page.
It’s on my radar and I’m sure it’s on a number of other people’s as well. It just takes a little onboarding time like all good projects.
Worth noting: the ui is in inferno js
Knock off the childish fucking gatekeeping and go back to reddit. It’s what the wider industry uses.
