What if I *don't* want to build a scalable Kubernetes infrastructure for agentic fintech?
What if I'm really good writing minimalist, efficient, correct software for a range of purposes - medical technology, embedded OSes, infrastructure management, what have you? (In C and Perl?)
What if I'm really good at analyzing and diagnosing issues with Unix systems and networks?
What if I'm really good interacting with customers? What if I'm a good mentor, teaching people to program, to explore systems and troubleshoot, to understand the fundamentals? (What if I teach people how to understand arbitrary number bases and how to do things like CIDR calculations by hand?)
What if I value learning and practising doing things, rather than wheedling them out of a Hallucination Engine?
What then?
