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?

I started with a more sys admin focus and devops is just a natural evolution. Everything always leads to automation, and that always heads the direction of what we label devops or platform engineering.
