The rest of the story was unplanned and total chaos! In a good way :D

Linux & FreeBSD goodness, Solus, Microsoft, and more! 

Docker, Kubernetes, BETRAYAL? Oh my! 

In this episode, we discuss what we've been involved with:

Docker Compose and Kubernetes

SELinux - Worth the hype? Chris is way off, but still right? 

Amazon RDS and Elasticache

Golang is the best lang

Python 2 && Python 3 && Python 2.7 && Python 3.7 == INDENTATION ERROR

Bash and Ansible make the world go 'round.

Inheritence talk, using cars as the example. Car Class -> Honda Class Car Class -> Ford Class

Car class has 4 doors and 1 battery Ford has 2 doors, inherits 1 battery Honda has 3 batteries, inherits 4 doors

Terraform Infrastructure provisioning tool Platform agnostic Chris isn't an expert yet ;P

Visual C++ and Microsoft SQL Server Brushing up on C++ and playing with SQL Server

Python and BeautifulSoup Fantasy Football stat modeling Etherium pricing alerts and actions Zabbix trades cryptocurrency

Chris's environment: Windows 10 VM with Visual Studio building on remote Linux Server communicating with MS SQL Server running on Linux via Docker

Solus Project Set out to repair Debian installation Loved the "second impression" Installed the OS to give it a go Did not use terminal to install any application or driver (First time ever!)

Ikey Doherty, Solus founder, quit his job at Intel to pursue project full time.

The rollBak is now a proud patron of Solus Project! We also proudly support Sysadmin Today and Level1Techs. https://getsol.us/home/ https://level1techs.com https://sysadmintoday.com/

Solus qualities: Rolling release Latest software packages Built for developers by developers

It even works with Broadcom! w00t

Development Environments

Phil: Windows cause muh games ;D PyCharm and VS Code with Linux virtual machines.

Chris: Windows 10 workstation with Visual Studio 2017, VS Code, and IntelliJ Solus workstation with IntelliJ, CLion, and Atom.

Chris sets his eyes on Software Engineering Phil aspires for SRE

Goals make the world go 'round!

Books!

Site Reliability Engineering: How Google Runs Production Systems The Practice of Cloud System Administration: DevOps and SRE Practices for Web Services, Volume 2

(Sorry, Amazon links were HUGE)

What does SRE entail?

Using software to solve I.T. problems. Range from advanced deployments and infrastructure to being a software architect.

Heavy on programming, wide array of knowledge necessary too (Networking, database engines, operating systems).

Lightning Talk with The rollBak!

Going in depth on some topics we've covered like DevOps, teaching yourself Computer Science, Goals and Success!

Importance of Books

DevOps

Computer Science

Tools

Goals

Mike and Chris embrace the new form and dive deep into culture, hanging with your fellow engineers, working with the whole company, and staying hungry. 

Changes are a-coming! 

"Change is good. Change is good. o_o " 

Brainwashing aside, we're mixing up the formatting a bit. Every other week we are going to do a segment, potentially multiple part segments, and deep dives. Here we'll explore topics like personal projects and their progress, databases, software development, computer science, theory of computation, data-intensive applications, automation, and DevOps Philosophy. 

Weeks between those segments will hold Lightning talks, tips, tricks, and other short bits of content to help you along the way. 

Let us know if you have any questions and please let us know if you have any feedback! 

Checkout our new series at https://therollbak.com

Crank up your speakers, because we have a new intro!

We discuss the importance of monitoring, who's monitoring the monitors?! And, of course, we ramble randomly about rpm packages, Debian versus RedHat, compiling from source, Microsoft going Desktop as a Service (maybe???) and why people should(n't) be outraged about it.

Also, please excuse the sparse but obnoxious typing during the episode. I was attempting to take better show notes but didn't save the file so it was wasted noise :(
