Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.>What software should I run?Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you.

Why do server people recommend not having too many files in a folder?For example instead of having this path: /1/187651231.jpgThey say you should have: /1/87/65/187651231.jpg I can't remember a reason, it can't be seeking if the disk is SSD right?
>>107598694Why do you guys keep getting such switches when 10gbps ones with 8 ports are only like $90
