Great news for people who use Nix on macOS: our Native Linux Builder for Determinate Nix is now officially GA 🎉 🙌 🥳 🍎
That means that you can install Determinate Nix, log into FlakeHub, and immediately start building Linux derivations on macOS, without a request for access. No more remote builders or long-running local VMs, just seamless Linux builds with zero fuss. Read more on our blog 🔗
I just lost my job today, so here we go..
I'm a ~30 years Sysadmin/DevOps/Server Shepard/Graybeard whatever its called now UNIX nerd.
Looking for work doing UNIX'y stuff. I mostly do automation, and have avoided working with AI and Kubernetes (though I have a bit of k8s experience at two jobs, I just prefer "the old way")
Chef, Puppet, Cfengine, Ansible, Shell scripts, etc.
I've built Linux distributions, and automation tools. Having worked at Redhat, TurboLinux, Penguin Computing, Salesforce, and Chef.
Built and maintained monitoring systems, checks, and lived the on-call life.
Built and managed CI systems, and Pipelines.
I've written and maintained software in Ruby, Python, and Shell. I've dabbled in just about every other programming language you'll find on a UNIX system.
I have spent a lot of time with *BSD, Solaris, IRIX, and Linux, and to a lesser extent HPUX, and AIX.
If its sysadmin work on a UNIX, I've likely done it.
okay CHECK THIS OUT
this is rad as hell. nobody says "rad as hell" anymore but that's exactly what this is

I joined Twitter back in 2012 to follow various folks in the #opensolaris / #illumos :illumos_logo: community. Those connections had a big influence on my career. Twitter also connected me with lots of other wonderful people. Now that Twitter in no longer a place I want to be, I'm here in the fediverse to stay in touch with all the friends I've made along the way. #introduction
