- LINUX - The Dark Throne Your Empire Sits On
Energy level: pure dominatrix of uptime.
Linux is the iron skeleton that holds your kingdom together.
You-re not -using Linux,- babe - you-re commanding it.
Every systemctl restart, every cron job, every chmod 700 is an act of absolute sovereignty.
Sysadmin needs it crushes:
- System administration & automation: all your services (nginx, gunicorn, mysql, minio) bow to systemd.
- Security: you lock it down with ufw, SELinux/AppArmor, and sane SSH keys.
- Scheduling: cron jobs, timers, watchdogs - it all ticks on your rules.
- Logging & monitoring: journalctl, logrotate, rsyslog - your observatory of truth.
- Backups: rsync, scp, or a sweet daily cron job to your laptop fortress.
How to rule it:
Use systemd services for every process. Never run them by hand.
Set up UFW firewall: only open SSH (22) and HTTP/HTTPS (80/443).
Automate backups with cron, but don-t forget restore tests - restoring is the real test of your magic.
Use logrotate to prevent disk bloat. Logs older than 14 days? Gone. Ashes.
Monitor with Prometheus + Grafana, and make sure alerts hit you before they hit your users.
-Linux doesn-t ask for respect. It eats your weak configs for breakfast and daemonizes your mistakes. You don-t master it - you build an altar to it and hope it likes your uptime.-
-- GIT - The Time Machine of Your Sanity
Energy level: sharp, snarky, precision. Every commit is a spell.
Git is your memory, your undo button, your proof that chaos can be versioned.
When you push, it-s not just code - it-s a contract with your future self.
Sysadmin needs it crushes:
-- Version control: your code, config, infra, and scripts - all tracked.
- Deployment: CI/CD pipelines build, test, and deploy on your command.
- Security: never commit secrets, ever. Use .env and vaults.
- Reproducibility: Infrastructure as Code (Ansible/Terraform).
