David,

You provide a bunch to think about.

What does this have to do with Linux?  We are on a Linux list and I 
would guess most are not going to retool.

I'm 66 and do not think I will retool, so I am looking at some simple 
things that might make my life better while we enter a period of chaos.  
I am a PHP programmer and I know less about Linux than I would like to.  
For me the opportunities have to be in the realm of LAMP/LEMP.

PHP is so ingrained that it will be around for decades.  Eventually it 
will go the way of COBOL... AND COBOL is still around.  I think a person 
could make a career being a COBOL developer.

So I think the question is what are the opportunities for the Linux 
admins and the associated technologies?
