    Not exactly what you’re asking for, but I’ll share what I do. I’m using SaltStack to do config management and one of my salt states brings all packages up to date. This is done every 24 hours. I’m not suggesting you install SaltStack just for that but rather pointing out for people who use config management tools that those might be able to handle unattended upgrades.


  • Ignore the noise and use Ubuntu LTS. Subscribe for the free Ubuntu Pro service. This is something you do not get on Debian. Enjoy boring, trouble-free operation.

    If you’re hell bent on not using Ubuntu, use Debian. Enjoy boring, trouble-free operation.

    In either case, use Docker. I don’t know what the version of Docker is in Debian but in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, it’s recent enough so you don’t have to f around with third party repos.

    I’m serious. Politics are a good chunk of the job, meetings is a major place for that. What happens there can have dramatic effects on how long something takes and therefore on the “produced output per unit of time.” I’ve been at it for 13 years now and embracing that has had positive results on my well-being and career. 🥹
