On why unix root vs. user sucks big time (read is pure shit)
Sunday Sep 20 1:10:26 2020
------------------------------
A linux user since 2005 I have come to realize that its philosophy
pure shit when it comes to root vs. user management.
I have exclusively used linux (unix like) operating systems for 15
years. At home I am the root user but at work I am a simple user wi
no privileges at work. We have no internet access at all. We canno
install any new software and what is worse, whenever we make a mist
we have to call the root users to fix it, since we are not allowed
fix it ourselves.
This is nonsense, we must use the shitty bespoke software the compa
uses, but if we make a mistake we cannot fix it because we do not h
the privileges to overwrite data on the database.
This only makes things slow and clumpsy, the workforce to make thin
right is more expensive than it should be since a simple correction
takes two or three people involved to fix it.
I am not complaining because I do not like the job. I do like my jo
lot. I only find that the workflow is not as fluid as it should be.
The final conclusion is always the same: "They want it this way, th
got it. No matter what the cost."
