Every year, on the last Friday of July, we pause for a moment and think about the impact of system administrators on our world. It is hard to imagine how different our life would be if it was not for the sysadmin. The goal of the Annual SysAdmin Appreciation Day is to make us all think about that and find ways to express our appreciation for them. At CFEngine we know many of them. In the past weeks we have interviewed hundreds of them and we want to share some fun facts we have discovered which show why they deserve our appreciation.
