No Starch HumbleBundle includes “How Linux Works”, THE SysAdmin fundamentals book, 3rd edition.
Also includes the “DevOps for the Desparate”, “Linux Firewalls: Attack Detection and Response with iptables, psad, & fwsnort”, “The Linux Command Line, 2nd Edition”, “Absolute OpenBSD”, “The Book of PF” ( I think that’s for the BSD’s ), “Designing Secure Software”, “Practical ulnerability Management”, “Eloquent JavaScript 3rd Edition”, “The Practice of Network Security Monitoring”, etc…
IF you can’t afford the Safari subscription, which I presume would include all of these,
AND you want thorough competence in the fundamentals
THEN you really probably want to know some of these ones.
I’d require the current edition of “How Linux Works” as the bedrock understanding of anyone who wanted to be working SysAdmin or DevOps, anywhere, any time.
This entire bundle is the same price as “How Linux Works” alone is, in my local ebook platform.
Our ignorance costs us, right?
We can reduce the price it makes us, and our world, pay, through more competent knowing of our fundamentals:
don’t allow mistakes, or faulty-process, or malicious-actors, any leverage, you know?
Salut, Namaste, & Kaizen!

I always thought the Unix and Linux System Administration Handbook was the book of fundamentals, will probably get the bundle just for the Kubernetes stuff though. Those BSD books are pretty useful too, in that world.
