It's pretty crazy that monkeying with Linux in my teens, not my college degree, has gotten me to where I am career wise.

If you don't mind me asking, what was your career path like?

Network Admin. Back in the dial up days, shared a 56k modem between my dad and my computer. Also got into early firewalls and content filtering.

same lol, I built my first Linux server in 2021 and now I'm reverse engineering binaries for security appliances. long way for a few years' time

Damn. Wished I knew how to do that.

to be clear I'm no APT, but it is fun! a good place to start is downloading firmware images for random IoT devices and running binwalk on them, going in and looking at all their scripts, etc and figuring out how they work :)

binwalk? I'll check that out!

Same, and I work in the arts. Basically everything I know about computers is from tinkering with Linux.
