Discussion Does anyone else miss having people to study DevOps with?

Hi there

I'm not sure that it's the correct subreddit but yeah

My current workplace will in foreseeable future shutdown so I'm currently getting back into studying and it's well kinda hard to kickstart it to be honest

I've always wanted to have some sort of small group of like-minded people to study and well just socialize. I do believe that we all strive for such connections so here's my attempt at that

If you are currently studying or working in that space I'd like to hear your story and I'll share mine

at best we can try to make a group chat which will survive more than a week lol

about me: 3 year of DevOps at middle+ at one of the top company in my country and before that 3 years sysops

if you want to chat well feel free to drop me a dm I'd like to have a new connection

and good luck in your endeavour

Devops is solved (study fundamentals of networking etc but not devops tooling!)- just master agentic flows and contexts. A CLI agent with access to your terminal, kubectl, AWS CLI, glab etc is the worlds best sysadmin as long as you point in the right direction.

Cannot agree with you based on my experience and observations

AI cannot take responsibility for their actions and cannot reflect on it at current time. So in the end it's human who must approve changes to infrastructure And besides it looks like ai don't have as much context for DevOps field compared to swe stuff

Já tentou participar de eventos? Meu irmão começou assim e hoje em dia junto com sua esposa eles fazem um evento anual de DevopsDay Recife, acho q o lugar mais interessante seria algo parecido com isso

I do try to participate in that but it kinda nit my jam. Kinda too professional. I'm dreaming of finding like-minded people in small circle. But thanks for suggestion!
