There is a positive ideal that says 'bad things happen so greater good may result'.

Well, after Red Hat killed CentOS, that directly resulted in open sourcing Ansible for DevOps, which has to date led to at least 37,444 more people having the opportunity to learn Ansible than would've before.

That's $347,065 of value created in response to a single bad decision ;)

Note: that's the $0.00 coupon for the book, and I will always keep the latest free coupon link updated at: https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-for-devops-manuscript

@geerlingguy Didn't CentOS commit suicide by having continuous updates?

@geerlingguy I need to learn Ansible one of these days. Would like to work towards certs, too. Problem is, test is expensive, and I'd worry I'd blow it.

@garpu Honestly the test isn't as required for many jobs as you'd think. Real world experience building infra is required, I like to use Ansible on little things a lot, so I got familiar with basics (inventory, ad-hoc, playbooks).
