It's amazing how far you can come in the software industry now without possessing even a general understanding of how computers work.

What’s worse is some of them become “infra engineers.”

Needing to explain to someone in that field why the underlying hardware for the K8s node hosting an extremely memory-bandwidth-intensive app does matter, actually, is painful.

It’s about on par with needing to explain B+trees to devs, and realizing they still aren’t making the connection to their queries being slow.

Wait until all those „know it all learned on chatgpt cannot google” come to the job market.
