Can you make a living exclusively as dev ops?
>>108595580yes
>>108595580Yes, and it pays extremely well.It's also very convoluted.
>>108595668Yea but programming requires math and bigger brain
>>108595701*some programming requires math.A very small subset of it.And math isn't necessarily bigger brain than scaling shit, keeping shit secure, managing costs, integrating shit with shit, and migrating from shit to shit.It's just a different type of complexity.
>>108595701Dev ops is hardly pure programming dummy. It's more like logistics design, maintenance, and monitoring.
>>108595580not so much in the AI era. you better be prepared to do other stuff as well as dev ops.
>>108595668Is it AI-willl-take-my-job proof?
>>108597283Yes and no.The risks and responsibilities of the position are incredibly high, so currently no sane company (aside from those that were entirely AI operated from the very start) would actually allow AI to touch anything a DevOps would touch.But also because of AI the barrier for entry is now massively lower.For the longest time, even if the docs are all there and are regularly updated, the field was so convoluted, it was pretty hard to get into from the standpoint of acquiring all the necessary knowledge without being put into the position first.But now most people can just talk to AI for a bit and figure out what services of which provider they need, how to use them, how not to, etc.It's not 100% reliable yet because it still often refers to outdated, deprecated, and sometimes straight-up discontinued features and interfaces, but it's already incredibly helpful.
>>108597283Yes
>>108597283no dev job is safe from stupid managers looking for easy gains by cutting staff.
>>108597426>dropping f bombs in a prompt
>>108597276>>108597283Rope. Around your neck. Now.
>>108595580yes but you should ask your self if you wanna create pipelines in yaml and silly grafana metrics all day and then get called at 2am because something decided ACK and you now have to get all services back running again
>>108597446Is it bad? I do that sometimes
>>108597957Doesn't change much, but it makes you look like a child, CAPITALIZING words also doesn't really work with Ai
