<p>DevOps in my experience often stems from a breakdown of communication/trust between management and developers. Software production and deployment complexity has outpaced the deliverable(s). Traditional IT system admins struggle to keep up with deployments that are way beyond ftp/sync tools. Simultaneously developers are creating microservices each with independent multi-step build processes.<p>The complexity and problem solving of the job is not automating some widget or service. That is very easy and not a challenge to someone with a deep programming background. The challenge is knowing what to build to a) enable developer productivity and flexibility to b) increase development speed to c) provide products/services the business side can iterate on quickly while d) not completely destroying the infrastructure and lessons learned that already exist and e) providing training and leadership to system admins and developers not used to these processes.</p>

<p>Per site so long as it is a single domain name with 1000 users it is fine. I like it because it is attractive and easy to customize.<p>If you can get most of the work done in Python then the question becomes: does Python dynamically generate the data/results for your users or do you store the data somewhere and some other tool (PHP for example) can query it to present to the user?</p>

<p>I have been in a similar situation.<p>Any project like this one can often go off the rails if the right decision makers are not involved. This is not necessarily the fault of the project leader as it can be unintuitive in bureaucracies.</p>

<p>Sure nobody denies hiring happens for unfair reasons all the time. That does not mean its not an ideal to hope for. I would expect more from authoritative figures who have already found success in our industry and looking to assist the next generation.<p>Is it so much to ask that a venture capitalist who is looking for the best and brightest to propel our industry to hire you know... the best and brightest? She should not have to look herself in the mirror and ask "Did I get this because I am qualified, intelligent, and worked hard or because he wants to hit on me?"<p>Let me phrase it differently. If he had asked her "Would you accept an employment position with us because I find you very attractive?" Do you think she would accept?<p>Maybe she would but that is besides my point. A little empathy for how she feels demonstrates that she was applying for a job she felt qualified for intellectually and not physically.</p>

<p>It is to admit that I could have said "glad to see he is in therapy and hope he finds his true motivations" but I forgot he mentioned it because it is besides the point. The objective of my comment was to throttle down the "creep shaming" going on in this forum and several others.<p>Many people sometimes act creepily without even being aware of it. A little empathy as to how the other person feels and what their goals are can help one treat them with the respect they deserve. Hopefully the author can discover when his various desires are appropriate to express in context of the circumstances at hand.</p>

<p>Good catch. I did read that but misplaced it when replying.<p>I am glad he is seeking help but I hope its for purposes of identifying his desires/behaviors and not only mandated by circumstance.</p>

<p>He completely misses the forests from the trees.<p>Had the woman been hired she would have been denied by him the satisfaction of knowing she earned the position through her hard work, intelligence, and capabilities.<p>He also does not seem to recognize why he is a creep. Ultimately we find people creepy when they portray themselves and their motives one way and yet secretly or covertly act another.<p>I recommend therapy so that he can identify his true desires and motivations and then realign his life to optimize for them.</p>

Get's you into the cloud game and you gain SmartOS and Node chops.<p>- Buy BitTorrent and capitalize on its growth and the new sync technology.<p>- Make YUI popular again in the responsive web era. Tumblr, Flickr, Develpr?<p>- Probably should stop trying to out-Netflix Netflix. Community was never going to work but I understand the thinking.<p>- Somebody is going to buy Groove Music (Xbox Music). I hope it's not Yahoo.</p>
