I've seen this stat used as a "gotcha" a few times, but it's based on @backblaze 's usage of consumer-grade hard drives in their datacentres. These drives are pushed to their limits, meanwhile average users will find that their drivers can last over a decade.

@rickasaurus In my experience, they get bored or burned out with dev and then move into infrastructure because it's new and exciting. Meanwhile, a lot of older devops engineers want to move into software engineering because it's less stressful and you don't have on call

@czue Another aspect to point 1 is that, from my experience, a lot of Django devs became Django devs because it was practical to do so. So they view it as a tool to get a job done and don't see the need to talk about it much.
