Devops

there's no such a thing as devops. there's 2 types of sysadmins: the ones who can code and the ones who are basically paid to get shat on when things go wrong. devops is just a smoke screen to slowly phase out people too stupid to code from sysadmin positions

I don't think sysadmins are required to code, and also calm the fuck down

>>61648661
they weren't in the past. they are now. they will be in the future. "devops" is the transitioning phase

>a transition phase from devops to something exactly the same as devops

Same reason you don't see any real discussion of networking, storage, servers, IDS/IPS, AD, datacenters, or any other IT infrastructure in /g/. 80% of the posters here don't work in IT aside from maybe helpdesk or coders. Very evident by the amount of intel vs amd, nvidia vs amd, apple vs anything, desktop and tablet threads, and other shit no one in IT really gives a fuck about.

Companies actually hire people who don't know how to code to be sysadmins? What the fuck do they do all day? Install adobe reader?

you don't have to be a programmer to keep software up to date in a unix-like environment

Coding is a retarded profession, and there is objectively no enjoyment that can come from it.

>Are there any devops lurking?
Yep. Devop and an SRE here.

Ansible has helped me out quite a bit while having to create sanity out of a legacy VM setup + legacy codebase.

Reliable deployment is what I like about devOps work.

Yes, pretty much. I tunnel into my home server and write open source software while it installs and it looks like I'm being extra productive.

I am employed and over paid in 'devops' ama.
