Congrats on your first post! You make some great points about the willingness to learn. I've seen a lot of people ask "how long will it take me to know enough to do this job?" and it can be hard for them to accept that it's the kind of job you're ALWAYS learning!

Hi Sheila, sure go ahead! As long as the link to the original is obvious and easy :)

Thank you Peter Thaleikis!

Thank you! This is also very useful and well-written. For me, I was always confused as to whether 'writing/running a server' meant I had to keep my own computer on 24/7, but the existence of virtual machines seemed to be the missing piece for me.

Bravo, Francesco! Onwards and upwards!

Hahaha I added that as a joke but hey, if something comes of it I won't complain 😂 Glad you liked the article Chris! I'm no scholar or expert but some of these little tips could make some workplaces a lot more pleasant, so hopefully some good comes from it 😊

Thank you for sharing your story! I relate to a lot of it as I also graduated in communications/media.

Thank you, I'm only intermediate myself so I'm trying to pass it all along as simply as possible.

Haha I couldn't help myself, truth be told!

You're welcome, glad you enjoyed it!
