    There are exactly two kinds of folks in IT, soon to be or fully out anime queer folks and furries, and 60 something industry gurus who all always wear polo shirts and live in an upper middle class house despite apparently being rich as sin, also they are so hard for home security measures their backup security footage server in Montana has its own backup in a bugout bunker in New Zealand.

    I was neither so I ended up being a number cruncher for a solar company instead.

      When a linux user is born, a random path is chosen. They will either become a hot femboy, a bald polo shirt guy or a domestic terrorist.

      So anyway there’s a feee blahaj over there.

      This is just the lastest thing, it used to be the old IT guys and the ones with a beard, long hair and a metal shirt.

      Working for a solar company sounds pretty cool though. Building renewable energy is building the future we need.

        Kinda but I’m on the existing site side of business, the only new projects I even sit in on are expansions for existing customers (which is relatively common because it’s municipal brownfield solar, which means most sites have at least some room to expand)
