From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Homie what are you doing Windows Support when you know Linux?! We cannot hire competent admins fast enough! I write bash, python, build systems with terraform, and play on agile development platforms all day! It's amazing and I cannot imagine doing anything else and it started all with knowing a little bit of linux and applying for every position with linux in the description.

Thanks. Gives me hope for the better.

My job description may change soon. However, if it doesn't, I may start doing exactly that - looking for a better job.
