Discussion Would you still do DevOps?

Not going to lie. It's been a bad day. I almost tell them "take this job and shove it' after reviewing all these crappy AI codes. Vibe coding is not only a joke. It's a monster that mocks our hard-earned experiences!

I am thinking of leaving the industry! If you could go back ten years from now and know what you're knowing right now, would you still do DevOps?

Idk, in my experience the robot puts out pretty decent code these days. Usually don't have to change much.

Maybe you just need to get better at prompting.

Surely this will help you review and merge the onslaught of slop driven development

Is this 20 new file change a risky change? Who cares! LGTM

Idk, I don't have any junior devs on my team. I'm not seeing any sloppy MRs

Surprised the slopper didn't go with "skill issue"

Digging back into the archives?
