    lol. My dad’s a retired engineer and my mom was a computer programmer. Literal actual baby boomers.

    I work in IT. Gen-X. Which you forgot because you’re bad.

    My daughter just got her degree in Cybersecurity. Millennial.

    tl;dr: STFU with this stupid inter-generational tribalism, it’s wrong and stupid.

      My grandpa was a robotics engineer and thus knew how to use a PC quite well but watching him operate Windows 10 basically without utilizing any tools that came after DOS was bizarre.

                  Locked down, sure.

                  But compared to generations before where a calculator* was rare? It's fine. Interested nerd will still consume knowledge on the good bits and the cycle will continue.

                  *"You can't count on always having a calculator", the teacher said, obviously not clairvoyant.

                    Hehe, llvm is a compiler framework, basically provides all the utilities for processing an AST.

                    ASTs have various flavors but they're all the same thing an intermediate representation for a program that optimizers and linkers use to create binaries.

                    The network stacks meh, 6 or 7 layers depending on what protocol you use but in brief: physical, transport, application. More and more functionality has moved into the transport in the name of efficiency, see quic. But in general not worth worrying about most of the abstraction was nonsense anyways.

                    And you missed out compilers was one of the most useful classes in cs circulums since it teaches you how languages work.

                    I KNOW! My biggest mistake in college was worrying about my GPA and that worry keeping me from taking harder classes. But I did learn about ASTs.

                          Utter BS. I’m on the old end of Gen X and I’m still building PCs for people and troubleshooting their shit when it breaks. I have yet to meet a much younger person who can do it as well.

                            I have a Proxmox server with a random assortment of hard drives and SSDs of various capacities {8TB, 2TB, 2TB, 240GB, 240GB}. I want to create a CephFS filesystem spanning them, using erasure-coded pools in order to maximize capacity (kind of like RAID 5 except without requiring same-sized drives). How do I configure my CRUSH Map in order to accomplish this?

                            Lol, you lost me there. I've read up on the various RAID configurations. I've heard about CephFS. I don't know much about it, but I get the sense it's the new kid on the block.

                            I actually have a RAID question for you. I want to setup a little RAID array starting with 2 mirrored drives and add more drives later. But it seems there is no easy way to migrate RAID versions? Let's say I want to start with 2, then 3, than 4 drives as stuff fills up. I always want some level of redundancy. And I don't want to use any additional drives aside from the 2, 3, then 4 in the array. Is this possible? Either with RAID or with CephFS?

                              Depending on definitions, I'm either a millennial or gen-z. Some of my team mates are awesome and know everything there is to know about computers. Others have knowledge gaps that make me question whether they went to uni. They're also the same people who commonly don't know how to find answers to things. They're also the people proclaiming the loudest about the greatness of Gippers

                                At this point I’m happy to let someone else do it. Being everybody's tech support sucks. I can just tinker with and enjoy my own setups in peace.

                                        I'm not very technical, but I had to move a jumper on my old 386 when I upgraded my modem

                                        I spent 25 years without remembering that, you sonuvabitch! :-D. Sorry, the PTSD takes over sometimes. Goddamned supra winmodems and hot-glued ISA cards in overpriced junk RadioShack/FutureShop computers....

                                        Right?

                                        How about jumpers on hard drives while figuring out interrupts and hard drive/controller card matching (I forget what it was called, but there was something about figuring out the interleave, etc).

                                        I'm about to have some awful flashbacks, dammit.
