Career’s and future in IT discussion.

Salem chabeb,
I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately, and I’d really appreciate your opinions and experiences.

I’m 26 years old, currently working as a DevOps engineer in Tunisia. I have an engineering degree and a stable job with a decent salary enough for a modest family life الحمدلله. However, I’ve always been interested in medicine, and I’m wondering whether it’s still realistic to pursue that dream.

I got 15.19 in the 2018 Bac Sciences Exp, and I’m considering studying medicine (or PhD part time) somewhere in Western Europe (possibly while working a devops job there to survive) with the goal of eventually becoming a doctor (Neuro, Vet or dentist).

My questions are:
Is this realistically possible at my age?
What countries offer a feasible path for someone with my background?
Would I have to start medicine from year one, or are there alternative pathways?
Has anyone here, or someone you know, made a similar career change from engineering (or another field) into medicine?
How difficult would this be financially and administratively?

One important detail: I’m married, and my wife is still studying, so that’s another factor I need to consider.

I’m looking for honest advice, success stories, warnings, or anything else that could help me make an informed decision. If you’ve been through something similar or know someone who has, I’d love to hear about it.
Thank you!

Bulgarians and expats living in Sofia Need to ask

https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/in/Sofia

is this still accurate? is a comfortable life affordable now with a stay at home wife and a 2200 euro salary ?

ps: Comfortable life is good food (not outside), no drinking no smoking, light gaming hobby and going out only on weekends and 1 vacation per year and saving a little

Need help with imposter syndrome:)

Hello, 2 Year sysadmin here at a small medium enterprise (not corporate) those two years have taught me the basics in linux administration I can resolve any kind of issue using documentation and rarely with the help of AI (Except for tedious tasks and syntax or learning concepts).
A year ago Almost got my RHCSA results were 10 points below pass rate.
I have deployed 4 mega projects(over 200k users) with postgres clusters mongodb replication clusters multi site failover load balancing docker apps tuning and hardening as well and they have been stable since day one.
I still struggle with linux basic commands and bash scripting I cannot do anything on my own. I need to refer back to guides notes and documentation for the simplest things.
1- is this normal?
2-how is this seen as an L2 Sys admin in corporate multinationals?
3- Should I worry about it?

TLDR: I can do anything, yet I feel that I dont know anything:)

Hey everyone,

I manage a mid-sized ISP and we're currently evaluating platforms for remote CPE device management. We've been running TR-069 for years but our fleet is growing fast and we're starting to hit limitations — especially around multi-controller support and software module management.

A colleague pointed me to Orchesyx (orchesyx.com) — they seem to support both TR-069 and TR-369 (USP) simultaneously which is exactly what we need for a phased migration. Their ADM (Advanced Device Management) platform looks solid on paper but I haven't found many independent reviews.

A few things I'm specifically trying to figure out:

- Has anyone actually deployed their ADM in production?

- How does their TR-369/USP implementation hold up at scale?

- Is their multi-controller feature as flexible as advertised?

- Any experience with their support/managed services team?

Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who's worked with them or evaluated them against alternatives like GenieACS, or similar. Trying to make an informed decision here.

Thanks in advance
