Are programmers smarter than sysadmins?

depends on the individual

>>61550706
There are code monkeys and there are retards that are just running one liners from senior sys admins or worse, one liners from Google search.

Like >>61550718 said, it depends on the individual but at the end sys admins do actually code (bash, python, C) to speed up their tasks while experienced programmers also dabble in sys admin stuff to create and maintain their dev machines.

>>61550706
What if the sysadmin is also a programmer?

>>61550706
No, because programmers can't be assed to learn DNS

>>61550942
Sounds trivial and therefore beneath me.

>>61550706
both are better than the other in what they do

>>61550967
>any new knowledge being beneath anybody

This is why can't have nice things.

No thanks, I'm not 14 anymore.

>>61550706
sysadmins are lazy(er) programmers

>>61551136
What degree should a sysadmin get?

>>61550706

you are a fucking idiot OP

>>61550706
Depends.

What kind of programmers? Low level? Web developers? Backend developers? Mobile developers? Full stack? Desktop developers? Embedded devices? Data science? Devops?

What kind of sysadmins? Hardware and virtualization? Microsoft systems? Unix/Linux systems? DBA? Network equipement? Security systems?


It takes a different kind of mind to be each.

Programmers often need to break down a problem into smaller sections and use tools and framework to solve these problems while engineering a certain product.

Sysadmins on the other hand need a lot of broad skillset and knowedge of computers, networking, security and systems to solve problems while keeping these systems up , running and secure.

Nope. We just hired a guy that's coming from a C++ background and he's dumb as shit for anything related to the job
