1
00:00:05.080 --> 00:00:09.240
What's going on everybody? Oh wow, that's excellent. My voice cracks up

2
00:00:09.279 --> 00:00:15.160
in a very opening sentence. I'm
fifty three, going in my third round

3
00:00:15.160 --> 00:00:19.079
of puberty here, so welcome back
to the show Adventures and DevOps. I'm

4
00:00:19.120 --> 00:00:23.399
your host Will Button joining me in
the studio or in parade. Welcome Wren,

5
00:00:23.399 --> 00:00:27.000
how are you? Man? Hey? Thanks a lot. You know

6
00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:31.359
what's interesting. I do a lot
of public speaking, and one trick I've

7
00:00:31.399 --> 00:00:34.520
learned is that you're supposed to sort
of say like hello to yourself, maybe

8
00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:38.759
quietly before you actually start talking.
But we were just coming a long conversation,

9
00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:44.840
so I honestly don't know what happened
there. I would that's that would

10
00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:47.679
That's one of those things that I
think would take practice, saying hello to

11
00:00:47.759 --> 00:00:52.560
yourself, because then I'm gonna I'm
gonna start overthinking it, like who am

12
00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:58.479
I saying hello to? Like I
mean, it's be you know, create

13
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:00.880
any sort of existential crisis here.
But it's like, you know, I

14
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:04.439
mumbled to myself sometimes when I'm dealing
with a difficult problem, so that sort

15
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:08.040
of comes a little bit natural to
me. Anyway, the fact that I'd

16
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:12.640
like to share today is something important
to remember. I think in the world

17
00:01:12.719 --> 00:01:18.359
where we've started to convert to more
to DevOps, which likely means agile working

18
00:01:18.439 --> 00:01:21.959
that means no sprands, no scrum
or anything like that, we lose a

19
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:26.439
lot of ceremonies that come by default. And with a big release that happens

20
00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:30.480
once a year or once every other
year, we get we were reminded to

21
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:34.519
stop working on that thing potentially celebrate
our successes. So it's still important to

22
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:37.480
do those things. As a matter
of fact, if you release every day,

23
00:01:37.519 --> 00:01:42.319
you almost should have little celebratory dances
every day. But I usually recommend

24
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:46.519
making sure that your team does something
once who are, once a week or

25
00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:49.000
once every couple of weeks to actually
sit down and be like, we're actually

26
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:53.400
a good team, we actually got
something accomplished, because I think it's really

27
00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:59.519
important for the health of the team
and individual team members. That's that's a

28
00:01:59.599 --> 00:02:05.599
really great point, man. That
is I like that. I can't even

29
00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:08.360
express in words how much I like
that, because we spend so much time,

30
00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:12.560
you know, feeling like we're under
the gun, and you get something

31
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:15.840
done and there's no time to celebrate. You're behind on other stuff already.

32
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:20.919
So I think that's a great tip. I'm terrible at doing it, but

33
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:27.680
I I think it's important, and
you know, I think teams love this

34
00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:31.039
too. So in previous engagements we
would have like a beer every Friday or

35
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:35.319
something like that where we actually talked
about what we were doing. I think

36
00:02:35.319 --> 00:02:38.759
it's super important. Yeah, for
sure. Well, onto today's topic.

37
00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:46.560
We're talking about awesome DevOps and assuming
that if you're listening to this show you're

38
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:50.719
interested in DevOps could be a bold
assumption on my part, but I'm gonna

39
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:53.240
roll with it. And you know, like whether you're just getting started or

40
00:02:53.240 --> 00:02:59.400
whether you've been doing it for a
long time, there's a continuous learning curve.

41
00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:06.680
So our guest today, Maria Stanka, has created a repo and has

42
00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:12.960
collected a bunch of resources and how
to like break down and categorize the different

43
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:19.719
components and aspects of DevOps and it's
really it's really a cool resource to go

44
00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:23.360
through and just kind of reflect on, like, oh, I need to

45
00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:24.400
work on this, so I don't
need to work on that, or even

46
00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:30.560
like from a beginner's perspective of where
do I even start. So with that

47
00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:36.479
long ramble out of the way,
Marius, welcome to the show. Thanks

48
00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:43.680
thanks for Yeah. So what is
your background in DevOps? How did you

49
00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:47.520
get started? How long you've been
doing it? Oh? I think I

50
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:57.759
started a freelance project, was a
small project, and I think that was

51
00:03:58.039 --> 00:04:03.039
that time. Is that popular?
And I started to work let's as the

52
00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:11.879
boks here, and then I realized
how actually, how cool is that?

53
00:04:12.120 --> 00:04:16.439
And then I'm doing from that time
only the bops. I think I have

54
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:24.439
more than ten years Yeah, the
boks right, an, So what was

55
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:31.720
the inspiration behind creating the awesome DevOps
repo? You know, I think all

56
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:40.319
of us, or most of most
of us, we open the links all

57
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:44.639
the time the browser. We have
a bunch of tubs in the browser,

58
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:50.360
and you keep that I'll read this
later, you know. And then I

59
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:56.120
realized why I should not put this, let's in that document? From that

60
00:04:56.240 --> 00:05:00.959
time I was working actually in the
corporation, and in that time I spent

61
00:05:01.279 --> 00:05:08.720
a little bit of time to take
all the tabs and then putting that in

62
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:13.800
this let's say document, and then
why not a website written around this?

63
00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:19.279
And then I gave this to some
of the colleagues, what do you think

64
00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:25.240
about this? And they they said, hey, it's a very good idea.

65
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:29.319
Actually one of them that pointed,
hey, you need to put this

66
00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:32.879
in this section something like that,
And then I said, okay, let's

67
00:05:32.879 --> 00:05:36.680
go into this in the in the
in the in the open source space,

68
00:05:38.279 --> 00:05:43.399
so then we can we can share
this with a lot of people. There.

69
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:48.000
You've got quite a lot of things. Yeah, there wasn't only my

70
00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:55.480
contribution. Actually, most of I
mean more than tell people actually contribute to

71
00:05:55.480 --> 00:06:03.839
this, and they're keeping let's say
people to let's say let's say fok or

72
00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:12.040
stars that's still keeping let's say beverage
is five per day. But yeah,

73
00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:16.720
it's it's grewing. Actually, yeah, it's green. Do you maybe this

74
00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:20.759
is a trick question, but like
do you know everything that's like in the

75
00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:24.959
repository, Like are there things that
have been added here? Like I don't

76
00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:28.800
know what that tool is that someone
just threw in there. That's a good

77
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:35.160
question. Actually, I'm not I
don't accept any any actually any resource in

78
00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:42.839
that document. Actually I'm thinking not
all of them, but some of them

79
00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:48.480
might experiment also because I don't want
to put any resource which is not related.

80
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:51.920
Most of them, by the way, or not most of them,

81
00:06:53.000 --> 00:07:00.600
but some of them. They tried
to put only four let's say promote something

82
00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:05.480
like that, not accept. Actually, if you let's say, give a

83
00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:11.800
free account, or if you give
at least away, you can experiment,

84
00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:15.439
or you can play, or you
can use let's say the project, then

85
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:20.160
yeah, it's one of criteria I
can accept. But yeah, I don't

86
00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:25.639
know all of them, to be
honest, but at least I true.

87
00:07:25.839 --> 00:07:30.199
I mean I I I checked actually
all of them. Yeah, I checked

88
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:35.680
to see if it's related to the
develops or it's related to the sorry.

89
00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:41.959
Yeah, so yeah, yeah,
And I think that's a I think that's

90
00:07:41.959 --> 00:07:46.360
a really good point for for everyone
to acknowledge, especially if you're new to

91
00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:54.000
DevOps, as you're never going to
have one hundred percent competency across DevOps.

92
00:07:54.600 --> 00:07:58.399
You know, there's you're going to
have things that you are good at,

93
00:07:58.959 --> 00:08:01.639
and then your company or your job
is going to shift and you're going to

94
00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:05.680
lose those skills, but at the
same time pick up new ones, and

95
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:11.079
then you'll circle back around, yeah, and get mad at yourself because you're

96
00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:16.240
like, man, I used to
know terrorform a lot better than this,

97
00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:22.480
but the skills have died off,
and you've got to not only like brush

98
00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:26.639
up on the skills that you used
to have, but also terraform has added

99
00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:30.199
a bunch of new stuff since the
last time you used it or whatever product

100
00:08:30.279 --> 00:08:33.360
you know. I'm just picking on
Terraform. But the thing is like it's

101
00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:35.840
continuous learning. Yeah, for sure, I like that. It's a cool

102
00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:39.879
hack to actually find out about those
things. Right Like if you follow one

103
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:43.399
of these repositories, every time there's
a new change or discussion, it's like

104
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:46.720
people are coming to you and telling
you about that those things that are in

105
00:08:46.759 --> 00:08:50.600
the industry that someone is using potentially
and get extra experience and know where to

106
00:08:50.639 --> 00:09:01.720
look next. Yeah, so go
ahead, and I so a few of

107
00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:07.799
the let's say, people I know
they want to start also in the bops.

108
00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:11.840
I mean, what's the BOBS doing? How I can get started?

109
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:16.720
Just give dis repeal. Then they
go to the road map for example,

110
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:22.679
and then see what actually is the
BOBS I think it's yeah, it's I

111
00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:28.759
think it's helping you. It's helping
them people who want to join in the

112
00:09:30.639 --> 00:09:35.879
what to see? What actually is
the BOB set oriented towards those beginner engineers

113
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:41.600
that inexperienced or would there still be
value for those that have three, five

114
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:46.080
or twenty years of experience. I
think it's more available to people who has

115
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:52.480
more experience actually, because there are
some other tools or at least the tools

116
00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:58.840
for are in the its on the
sections. Maybe they want to I want

117
00:09:58.879 --> 00:10:05.360
to to see what are I know? How for example the key station is

118
00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:09.159
working, for example, but I
want to see what are the tools?

119
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:16.440
Who? Actually it's based on my
use case or it's based on it's based

120
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:22.080
on my cover my needs. Actually, then I go there and see all

121
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:26.159
the tools, and most of the
tools are quite complex and you need to

122
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:31.559
know at least you need to have
that knowledge tool let's say, pick up

123
00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:37.120
quickly so you can take and fit
in in your work. Yeah. I

124
00:10:37.120 --> 00:10:46.960
think mostly it's most for the for
the people who has experienced Yeah. So

125
00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:50.360
for your own personal use how often
do you find yourself referring to your own

126
00:10:50.399 --> 00:11:00.519
website for resources? U can you
put? Yeah? How and do you

127
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:05.639
do you come back to your own
to the to the awesome develops repo to

128
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:11.480
look up information for yourself? To
be honest, I think keep the tabs

129
00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:24.200
open. Uh, but oh,
but I'm going actually to check the c

130
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:30.200
I C. Actually I have a
pipeline who actually check every week the link

131
00:11:30.360 --> 00:11:35.559
for each of the repole, if
it's still available, if it's responding or

132
00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:45.440
has actually TPS also, and I
check then that time actually I checked this,

133
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:54.519
this, this, these links on
the ripple. Yeah, I don't

134
00:11:54.720 --> 00:12:01.279
use let's say this very often,
but yeah, but it's okay to be

135
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:05.840
as a record. Yeah, I
mean I can imagine that there's some turn

136
00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:09.799
in the industry, but you've had
to automate this. So that mean that

137
00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:13.399
like a lot of legs get broken, like those products are no longer maintained

138
00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:16.399
in some way. Do you have
any like stats or just be like one

139
00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:20.879
in five just don't exist after some
time or something like that. Yeah,

140
00:12:20.919 --> 00:12:26.320
last time it's one which is Vulture
cloud. It's not responding. But I

141
00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:33.360
saw I saw some of them.
They changed a link and maybe there is

142
00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:37.679
a security issue something like that,
or maybe the link really relates to something

143
00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:43.120
which is bad request, let's say. But yeah, last time, just

144
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:50.519
one. I had also ten which
are not responding one time and then I

145
00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:56.519
get rid of them, yeah,
or I change also the link in case

146
00:12:56.600 --> 00:13:03.080
there is a ripot, I put
the rep link that I'm using one of

147
00:13:03.120 --> 00:13:07.080
the requests. Actually, when you
put a link, it's okay to put

148
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:13.759
the GitHub because githubits remain there.
If you put a let's say a customer

149
00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:18.679
domain, sometimes it is broken because
it depends on where you store this.

150
00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:26.120
But yeah, I had also ten
no more than ten, well this time

151
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:33.639
just one which is not responding.
Maybe they put a limit. I don't

152
00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:39.919
know, I don't know. Yeah, and more than two yeah, more

153
00:13:39.960 --> 00:13:46.080
than two hundred responding. Yeah,
oh wow. Right on. So when

154
00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:54.440
I look at the top level organization
of this you have You've got like cloud

155
00:13:54.440 --> 00:14:01.120
platforms and then file systems, automation, orchestration, database is like all these

156
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:09.559
upper level categories. How how did
you decide that those are the top level

157
00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:24.279
categories? Uh yeah, interesting question. Actually, I think based on so

158
00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:35.360
when I look to the tool or
platform, whatever, I just see what

159
00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:41.519
actually for what is made. Actually, for example, let's take orchestration.

160
00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:52.039
For example, Let's say we know, uh this, this orchestration is doing

161
00:14:52.159 --> 00:15:03.000
something like you can orchestrate let's say
the work law or let's say process or

162
00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:09.120
whatever. Just I just put Let's
say I can find this set of tools

163
00:15:09.159 --> 00:15:16.240
which which are doing similar things,
for example, but they are for different

164
00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:20.879
needs, but they are doing different
things. And then I I put a

165
00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:28.399
tag based on this, this these
are doing the same thing. Then if

166
00:15:28.440 --> 00:15:33.279
it's let's say more than two,
three, four, I just put a

167
00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:39.720
tag, just put this in this
section. This is from them. Yeah.

168
00:15:39.840 --> 00:15:41.120
Do you find that there's like a
lot of tools that all on the

169
00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:46.399
multiple categories, Like it's not so
easy to quickly identify that, oh,

170
00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:50.240
this is a data work it's like
a database as a service or some sort

171
00:15:50.279 --> 00:15:54.919
of data platform or something like that. Indeed, Yeah, yeah, yeah,

172
00:15:54.000 --> 00:16:00.360
I found for example, rg if
you take Argo, it's not just

173
00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:04.639
for the city. You can use
for other things which has different components,

174
00:16:06.000 --> 00:16:08.240
and it's hard to put only for
the city you need to put Also,

175
00:16:10.559 --> 00:16:17.919
there are category categories yeah, for
the pipelines or data pipelines or something like

176
00:16:17.919 --> 00:16:23.799
that. But it's yeah, there
there, I mean, maybe I'm I'm

177
00:16:23.799 --> 00:16:27.679
actually curious about that. So rg
CD primarily, I mean it's in the

178
00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:30.759
in the name that it's the ICD. But you're saying that there's you know,

179
00:16:30.759 --> 00:16:34.799
they focus on a bunch of different
areas, you know, talking me

180
00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:41.519
about that. For example, they
have Argo workflow. You can you can

181
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:45.879
run multiple I mean workflow which you
can run let's say batch jobs. For

182
00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:55.120
example. They have worlds Argo events. You can do this let's say for

183
00:16:55.320 --> 00:17:03.879
different events. You can trigger different
let's say workflows. They have also also

184
00:17:03.919 --> 00:17:07.559
with ugocity you can do not only
the deployment, you can use for even

185
00:17:07.559 --> 00:17:11.759
door key station. If you want
to integrate this in the products. Let's

186
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:22.480
say I want to deploy restar creation. Let's say let's this are creation in

187
00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:26.759
the cloud for example, and then
you want to deploy let's say every time

188
00:17:27.000 --> 00:17:32.039
new new triggers coming in the argosity
you can do. This doesn't have to

189
00:17:32.079 --> 00:17:37.319
be let's say for the continuous deployment
or continuous delivery. So yeah, it's

190
00:17:37.359 --> 00:17:44.839
for different use case. Yeah,
even if it's built for the c c

191
00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:51.240
D, you can do or other
things. I think that's one of the

192
00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:59.160
benefits of having curated resources like this
is you're able to to me. It

193
00:17:59.160 --> 00:18:04.000
feels like you can get that information
much more quickly from a curated list like

194
00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:11.400
this than you can from the company's
own website about their product. You know,

195
00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:15.440
because like when you go to when
you go to like someone's website,

196
00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:18.279
not to pick on anyone, but
there's like all the marketing and the fluff

197
00:18:18.319 --> 00:18:23.599
and the pipeline to get you to
cough up your email address. They can

198
00:18:23.640 --> 00:18:29.880
add you to their email list,
you know, and it's hard to just

199
00:18:29.920 --> 00:18:33.400
say, like, like, what
do you actually do for a living?

200
00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:37.480
I'm here on your page, what
do you actually do? And then when

201
00:18:37.480 --> 00:18:41.200
you figure that out, you know, like what else can you do?

202
00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:44.559
And so I think that's where curated
lists like this are really really helpful,

203
00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:48.880
just because it strips down to here's
what you're going to do. Yeah,

204
00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:55.400
I mean, I think there's a
ton of value there. Realistic by its

205
00:18:55.480 --> 00:19:00.119
just we have one that we maintain
for SoC two related resources and we get

206
00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:04.680
requests to update it similar and realistically
we have to go to the provider and

207
00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:07.759
be like, you know, what
are you charging for? How much is

208
00:19:07.759 --> 00:19:11.039
it? What do you get out
of there? And some of them just

209
00:19:11.079 --> 00:19:14.359
can't even answer us straight, like
they want their link to there, and

210
00:19:14.400 --> 00:19:19.559
I'm like, you told us that
you charge seven thousand dollars per user set

211
00:19:19.680 --> 00:19:22.640
for some small companies, but that's
not what your pricing page that, So

212
00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:25.680
like where did you get that from? Where did you pull it? Like,

213
00:19:25.680 --> 00:19:30.000
well, oh we have we're updating
that, or the feature set doesn't

214
00:19:30.000 --> 00:19:33.039
match what they're looking at. And
so it's like a real challenge to even

215
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:37.079
like you're actually providing more than just
the list curation, but also the definitions

216
00:19:37.079 --> 00:19:41.400
of those things and what's important there
for people that are coming and looking for

217
00:19:41.680 --> 00:19:47.160
that tool set and it's not marketing
nonsense. How big of a struggle is

218
00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:51.000
that for you? I know you
mentioned it earlier talking about checking to make

219
00:19:51.039 --> 00:19:55.599
sure that the links are not only
accessible, but that there's a free version

220
00:19:55.680 --> 00:20:00.599
of it. Do you find that
there's a lot of a lot of places

221
00:20:00.599 --> 00:20:08.960
where people try to slip in ways
to get you into their sales funnel using

222
00:20:10.000 --> 00:20:18.480
your site. I saw they saw
a link, they open a fulle request

223
00:20:18.799 --> 00:20:23.240
in that request has was the link
and the end of the link it was

224
00:20:23.279 --> 00:20:30.680
a code I think mostly Yeah,
some of the people, Yeah, they

225
00:20:30.759 --> 00:20:37.480
try also to promote and based on
this code, it's referring, hey this

226
00:20:37.480 --> 00:20:41.960
this, this request came from these
people something like that. I know.

227
00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:51.200
Yeah, not all Yeah, it's
not happened all the time, but yeah,

228
00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:59.200
it's yeah, that's like a yeah, that's a whole business model.

229
00:20:59.240 --> 00:21:03.920
There is go around and plug in
like your affiliate links exactly, yeah,

230
00:21:03.960 --> 00:21:07.279
exactly, affiliate links exactly. Yeah, I get I get it right.

231
00:21:07.319 --> 00:21:11.319
You want to know whether or not
this link is getting clicked on, and

232
00:21:11.400 --> 00:21:14.039
you know where these users are coming
from, you know, if they're actually

233
00:21:14.039 --> 00:21:17.640
going as this tool, because maybe
maybe you're like, oh, these users,

234
00:21:17.880 --> 00:21:21.440
we're changing our content where this link
goes, and right now it's pointing

235
00:21:21.480 --> 00:21:22.720
to someplace, and we want to
know, hey, are we're actually getting

236
00:21:22.759 --> 00:21:26.880
links here so that we can make
sure that the content is oriented better for

237
00:21:26.920 --> 00:21:30.759
the audience that are coming in.
I don't know, like, I mean,

238
00:21:30.759 --> 00:21:34.680
there is something with tracking which is
for sure problematic, but I do

239
00:21:34.720 --> 00:21:38.920
think that and this is sort of
the problem with the tech industry in general,

240
00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:45.480
the overlap between use for a good
purpose and use for a nefarious purpose,

241
00:21:45.599 --> 00:21:49.079
Like it's the same tool, but
you know your intent and what you

242
00:21:49.160 --> 00:21:52.000
do with it at the end of
the day is it can be much different,

243
00:21:52.039 --> 00:21:56.759
and there's no way to distinguish upfront, like what they're going to actually

244
00:21:56.799 --> 00:22:04.519
do with that information. Yeah,
that's that's one of the that's that's a

245
00:22:04.559 --> 00:22:14.000
whole nother podcast episode there. I'm
going to stop talking. I mean,

246
00:22:14.119 --> 00:22:15.400
I know it's for sure true.
You know, Marius, I didn't.

247
00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:19.000
I did notice that you you worked
at quite a few number of different companies,

248
00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:22.400
and so that experience must have really
built up over time. Did you

249
00:22:22.440 --> 00:22:27.039
notice anything significantly different in the sort
of role that you were doing for different

250
00:22:27.279 --> 00:22:32.240
companies at different stages or uh you
know where they were at or how they

251
00:22:32.359 --> 00:22:40.839
their approaches to DevOps. Yeah,
no, I think the most challenging on

252
00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:48.720
the website. Actually they don't know
how to let's say, structure the teams,

253
00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:59.000
how is the communication actually and actually
what the responsibility means. Actually for

254
00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:03.400
the devlops, this is the most
most problematic in most of the companies.

255
00:23:03.880 --> 00:23:07.839
They want the wops, but they
don't know how to supplied actually the wos

256
00:23:08.319 --> 00:23:12.359
and but in the end, yeah, the boves would be the same.

257
00:23:12.559 --> 00:23:22.759
But yeah, most of the companies
you join, yeah, they think to

258
00:23:22.160 --> 00:23:26.400
let's say the books is different things
than the other one. Yeah, some

259
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:33.759
of them they think it's let's say, new new system. That mean some

260
00:23:33.799 --> 00:23:37.599
of them it's sorry, yeah,
it's yeah, yeah, I know,

261
00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:42.519
but yeah, this is what what
like? What does that look like from

262
00:23:42.559 --> 00:23:45.480
your perspective? You know, it's
not it's not I mean I agree with

263
00:23:45.519 --> 00:23:51.720
you for sure that it's not just
happened or as ay, those are other

264
00:23:52.519 --> 00:23:56.920
areas for other roles, but you
know your perspective here, what what does

265
00:23:56.960 --> 00:24:08.920
that really amount to for me?
Yeah, it's let's say, I think

266
00:24:10.079 --> 00:24:22.680
for me, it's just bringing the
barrier barrier between let's say the application and

267
00:24:22.720 --> 00:24:32.400
the infrastructure. Actually, for example, I wanted to puy let's the infrastructure,

268
00:24:32.720 --> 00:24:34.920
so I should be able to play
the infrastructure, but also I should

269
00:24:34.960 --> 00:24:42.759
be able to deplayd application. So
for me, the debopsites simplify the whole

270
00:24:42.880 --> 00:24:49.039
warkflow let's say, from developed application
to the prod application and including all the

271
00:24:49.079 --> 00:24:56.400
tools set actually on the back end. That's me Actually. Also another example,

272
00:24:56.599 --> 00:25:04.759
let's say even the let's say the
the person who's building the product doesn't

273
00:25:04.759 --> 00:25:11.680
know about the infrastructure, but at
least that person should have ability to grab

274
00:25:11.880 --> 00:25:18.279
the tool set and then just click
or just type of command and then deploy

275
00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:22.759
something that this one actually means for
me at the box, Yeah, not

276
00:25:23.240 --> 00:25:30.160
making for the let's say, getting
the application from the person who developed and

277
00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:36.680
then just deployed by your No,
you should give the yeah, the let's

278
00:25:36.680 --> 00:25:42.440
say, the instructions and then hey, just to buy yourself to simplify,

279
00:25:42.960 --> 00:25:51.759
Yeah, simplify the the workflow.
Yeah, good application life. That means

280
00:25:51.960 --> 00:26:00.759
yeah, I know, it's combined
little bit, I mean and it's using

281
00:26:00.839 --> 00:26:07.160
the same process like platform engineering,
it'll be but at least, yeah,

282
00:26:07.160 --> 00:26:12.799
increase the productivity, increase, let's
say, but the experience. Let's say,

283
00:26:14.440 --> 00:26:21.319
so you can you can have these
processes to use it. Yeah.

284
00:26:21.640 --> 00:26:23.759
Yeah. I think for me,
the way I've been thinking about and this

285
00:26:23.839 --> 00:26:29.799
is sort of a new approach for
me that's developed over the last couple of

286
00:26:29.880 --> 00:26:37.319
years, is it's about putting in
guardrails and creating a set of guardrails so

287
00:26:37.359 --> 00:26:44.000
that the application engineers can build,
deploy, and ship as fast as they

288
00:26:44.039 --> 00:26:48.680
want to with wherever they're at and
their expertise. And then I'm just going

289
00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:53.000
to put guardrails in the way so
that they can't accidentally do something that they

290
00:26:53.519 --> 00:27:00.720
don't want to do. Yeah,
like including your API key in the U

291
00:27:00.839 --> 00:27:11.920
r L string or your link.
Yeah, you can have. I struggle

292
00:27:11.000 --> 00:27:19.079
that it is. Your job is
never complete. You know. I want

293
00:27:19.119 --> 00:27:23.119
to interrupt you there real quick on
that very point, because I get asked

294
00:27:25.200 --> 00:27:32.759
by tons of people every week is
DevOps still a valid career path or is

295
00:27:32.799 --> 00:27:37.240
it a dead end? And and
I think that point right there highlights the

296
00:27:37.279 --> 00:27:45.839
fact that we will never be done
with this Warren because every every every bad

297
00:27:45.000 --> 00:27:52.519
path that we close just opens up
the opportunity for someone to forge a new

298
00:27:52.599 --> 00:27:56.559
path that we have to close.
I mean, I don't know if I

299
00:27:56.559 --> 00:28:02.720
would to be so cynical. There's
an aspect here for me that's about automating

300
00:28:02.720 --> 00:28:06.400
your job away and so whatever it
is that you're doing, make that go

301
00:28:06.519 --> 00:28:10.960
away. That either you go into
the organization and you make it so it's

302
00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:15.640
no longer a business problem or a
tech problem or whatever, or you're building

303
00:28:15.640 --> 00:28:18.559
some tool around it so it's not
education, it's there is a problem that

304
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:22.599
needs to be solved and making it
so that something works super reliably, like

305
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:26.480
that CLI command et cetera. You
don't own it, some other team owns

306
00:28:26.519 --> 00:28:30.400
it realistically, but you're improving it
to such a point where it's automated.

307
00:28:30.680 --> 00:28:33.440
And then there's still and then you're
out of a job and you look at

308
00:28:33.440 --> 00:28:37.319
the organization from the outside end.
You're like, hey, look this other

309
00:28:37.400 --> 00:28:41.400
thing is broken in the organization.
Like let me be the person who bangs

310
00:28:41.400 --> 00:28:47.599
are faced against the wall over and
over again on that problem. Now you

311
00:28:47.640 --> 00:28:51.319
know it's in the it's in the
database space, or it's in the security

312
00:28:51.359 --> 00:28:55.440
space. Because of what you're doing
or there's a new tool out that's nice

313
00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:59.640
and shiny that everyone wants to use
or not. I think the bigger problem

314
00:28:59.640 --> 00:29:06.400
that I see a lot is the
organization has divested ownership in innovation to a

315
00:29:06.400 --> 00:29:11.839
different team, and that team is
divesting ownership in innovation because they're just trying

316
00:29:11.839 --> 00:29:17.400
to automate whatever is in place.
So there still has to be this aspect

317
00:29:17.440 --> 00:29:22.839
where you go out and learn about
new tools through get up repositories out there

318
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:26.519
on the internet and find whether or
not that's the best way to be going

319
00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:30.240
about it. Someone still has to
be doing that and bring them in.

320
00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:33.960
In the past, that role in
my teams has been called a full stack

321
00:29:33.039 --> 00:29:40.480
hipster. Ye. I mean,
it's just the sort of person that ends

322
00:29:40.559 --> 00:29:44.680
up there and they can do a
great job pulling this stuff in and they

323
00:29:44.759 --> 00:29:48.119
go through every RSS feed that they
can find, every email from every source

324
00:29:48.519 --> 00:29:52.720
and think about these things and I
think realistically injecting new ideas in because the

325
00:29:52.759 --> 00:29:56.039
worst thing that you could do would
be to create those guardrails that you said,

326
00:29:56.039 --> 00:29:59.559
well, and then those guardrails,
you know, pointing you off a

327
00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:03.200
cliff ten years in the future that
you know, it's very difficult for even

328
00:30:03.200 --> 00:30:08.519
people to see realistically. And one
of the most challenging also in the biopside,

329
00:30:11.160 --> 00:30:15.880
it's how to combine all the tools
together because I saw, yeah,

330
00:30:15.240 --> 00:30:21.519
different let's say teams they put like
this, the other ones like this,

331
00:30:21.759 --> 00:30:29.079
all different companies has different It's hard. Yeah, hit somethingdeed. This is

332
00:30:29.680 --> 00:30:34.880
actually most for me, think this
is most challenging is to grab these tools

333
00:30:34.920 --> 00:30:41.319
and put sort together. Actually,
so that's a problematic, yeah for sure,

334
00:30:41.359 --> 00:30:45.680
because you get like you work with
really talented engineers and they take some

335
00:30:45.759 --> 00:30:52.319
different tools and build them together to
create something. And you personally may have

336
00:30:52.400 --> 00:30:56.640
experience with all those tools but never
thought to use them this way. And

337
00:30:56.680 --> 00:31:00.799
so when you first into the room, you're like, oh my god,

338
00:31:00.920 --> 00:31:07.160
should I be like impressed or scared? Nah? Yeah, there is for

339
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:11.200
sure, you know there is something
and maybe I don't understand there's genius going

340
00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:14.960
on there. I feel like something
about both approaches isn't isn't the best?

341
00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:18.240
Like on one side, it's wow, they're using that tool for that like

342
00:31:18.279 --> 00:31:22.720
that, and on the other side, it's wow, they built that themselves,

343
00:31:22.000 --> 00:31:27.200
like whatever it is. And so
I think there's some old joke here

344
00:31:27.240 --> 00:31:32.519
about there never was the case that
some engineer came into a team after being

345
00:31:32.559 --> 00:31:37.559
recently hired and said, Wow,
that last person's code in this domain,

346
00:31:37.599 --> 00:31:45.119
it's absolutely fantastic. I don't want
to touch it at all. One of

347
00:31:45.160 --> 00:31:48.799
my favorite examples of that is I
had this job a long time ago and

348
00:31:49.039 --> 00:31:55.920
we we had our application was a
web based application using ASP dot Net one

349
00:31:55.920 --> 00:32:00.839
point zero. And I know,
right, but it gets better because the

350
00:32:01.839 --> 00:32:09.480
guys who built this, rather than
just writing the ASP code the dot Net

351
00:32:09.519 --> 00:32:16.640
code to render the website, they
decided that they would store the dot net

352
00:32:16.680 --> 00:32:22.519
code in a SEQL database, and
so the web server would query the SQL

353
00:32:22.599 --> 00:32:28.960
database and it would get the dot
net code in the response, and then

354
00:32:28.960 --> 00:32:31.480
it would render that as the website. So if you wanted to like change

355
00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:37.359
a frame or load a different image
on the website, you actually had to

356
00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:42.039
update a stored procedure in the database
to do that. And I was like,

357
00:32:42.079 --> 00:32:46.200
Okay, that's unique, that's novel. Well, we're not going to

358
00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:49.960
do that anymore. Just wait till
get to the point where they're like,

359
00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:52.960
well, you know, what we
found was that was inefficient. So we

360
00:32:52.039 --> 00:32:57.880
ended up doing was creating our own
tool that allowed you to edit that database

361
00:32:58.000 --> 00:33:07.200
in less sort of like a like
a I see I you know, I

362
00:33:07.240 --> 00:33:12.000
saw the one where previous job where
people got on the Microsoft train very quickly,

363
00:33:12.000 --> 00:33:14.279
and so they're like, oh,
silver Light, that's a thing,

364
00:33:14.839 --> 00:33:19.240
and you know, for enterprise applications, we're building stuff for silver Light.

365
00:33:19.519 --> 00:33:24.640
And it's very it's very sad when
you're trusting in a large organization to maintain

366
00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:29.759
a framework very long, and it
gets I think for that one, it

367
00:33:29.799 --> 00:33:34.920
actually got discontinued in Google style before
it was like officially out of the pre

368
00:33:34.920 --> 00:33:37.759
release, and so you're left with
that sort of thing, and I don't

369
00:33:37.759 --> 00:33:42.079
know what it is. It's maybe
it's like on the both sides of the

370
00:33:42.119 --> 00:33:45.920
spectrum, right, small companies they
have a couple of people who just don't

371
00:33:45.960 --> 00:33:47.599
want to use a lot of tools
so they do it themselves, and also

372
00:33:47.720 --> 00:33:51.680
large companies that have lots of people
who are like, we also need to

373
00:33:51.680 --> 00:33:54.559
do it ourselves. It's like there's
got to be somewhere where someone's saying,

374
00:33:54.680 --> 00:33:58.400
you know what, I know the
perfect tool for the job. If only

375
00:33:59.480 --> 00:34:04.559
I knew it, the tool was
Yeah. I think I think what you're

376
00:34:04.559 --> 00:34:08.199
getting at there is something that I've
seen for decades in this career is there's

377
00:34:08.239 --> 00:34:16.880
this overwhelming desire from corporations to create
a tool to let non technical people perform

378
00:34:16.960 --> 00:34:22.199
the technical roles. And I get
that, because finding tech people is really

379
00:34:22.199 --> 00:34:28.960
really hard and expensive. I get
it. It's just I don't think it's

380
00:34:29.239 --> 00:34:35.639
been successful and still today. Right. That's why we're using the GPTs to

381
00:34:35.800 --> 00:34:39.360
generate source code, right, so
non technical people contribute as well to the

382
00:34:39.440 --> 00:34:45.280
bugs and our production platforms that one's
actually working. Because I've got my GPT

383
00:34:45.400 --> 00:34:49.719
bought making poor requests. As we're
recording this podcast, it looks like I'm

384
00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:54.960
still at work. I mean you
should. You should let us, I

385
00:34:55.000 --> 00:34:59.239
mean all of us here, I
think, uh listening want to know,

386
00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:02.599
well, how exactly you did that, because I could definitely get some extra

387
00:35:02.679 --> 00:35:07.039
money on the side doing or three
extra DevOps jobs. The key here is

388
00:35:07.079 --> 00:35:10.480
my code is so shitty to begin
with that they're not really going to see

389
00:35:10.480 --> 00:35:19.400
anything except improvement by letting chat EPT
do it. Oh no, I mean

390
00:35:19.400 --> 00:35:22.760
maybe you should train it on some
good repositories out there that have a list

391
00:35:22.760 --> 00:35:28.880
of good tools, and you know, every once in a while throwing integration

392
00:35:29.079 --> 00:35:31.159
with one of those just to make
it look like, oh, you know

393
00:35:31.199 --> 00:35:37.320
what you're doing. Oh, that's
a Marius. Have you tried this?

394
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:42.440
Have you pointed chat GPT to your
repo and said, hey, I'm wanting

395
00:35:42.480 --> 00:35:47.119
a tool that does this? No, I did them all right, I'm

396
00:35:47.119 --> 00:35:52.079
going to check back next week with
you. You got to imagine that,

397
00:35:52.280 --> 00:36:00.440
especially a company like open Ai,
have used Marius's repository to actually funnel aims

398
00:36:00.480 --> 00:36:05.400
of products and companies and tools that
can be utilized in this space. I

399
00:36:05.400 --> 00:36:07.920
don't know how much. I mean, we know that getthub was for sure

400
00:36:07.960 --> 00:36:12.559
a source of this. I mean
get up as their own solution here that

401
00:36:12.599 --> 00:36:16.559
they have to be utilizing. So
realistically, it's invaluable not just to human

402
00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:22.679
onlookers, but also our future robot
overlords. Yeah, fair point, And

403
00:36:22.719 --> 00:36:27.239
we want to be in their good
graces as much as possible. That's a

404
00:36:27.519 --> 00:36:32.719
roco's basil, right. But that's
why I always tell Siri thank you every

405
00:36:32.719 --> 00:36:37.920
time I ask for a question.
I think that's important to train and to

406
00:36:37.960 --> 00:36:44.639
train them that that's the appropriate human
interaction. So how much to put together

407
00:36:44.719 --> 00:36:49.480
and maintain a resource like this.
How much time and effort do you spend

408
00:36:49.519 --> 00:36:55.920
on this? I think a couple
of hours per week, it's right.

409
00:36:57.000 --> 00:37:00.719
I yeah, so that's not huge, but that's still Look, it's one

410
00:37:00.840 --> 00:37:06.119
ongoing commitment. Yeah. I think
there's a couple of things that strike me

411
00:37:06.679 --> 00:37:14.320
from that is one that you can
produce really quality resources without a lot of

412
00:37:14.400 --> 00:37:17.320
effort. And two, if I
were to just put in that same amount

413
00:37:17.400 --> 00:37:24.599
of effort, I could probably close
down about two hundred browser tabs already thinking

414
00:37:24.599 --> 00:37:28.920
about automated like, how can I
create this tool that a lot of closes

415
00:37:29.000 --> 00:37:34.280
browser tabs and just moves the links
into it like that? I just saw

416
00:37:34.360 --> 00:37:37.199
that's where his thoughts were going.
Yeah, I think. I think it's

417
00:37:37.239 --> 00:37:42.639
also the experience, to be honest, working in many tools, you have

418
00:37:42.920 --> 00:37:47.280
kind of idea that's actually that tool
for example, or jump pretty quickly on

419
00:37:47.360 --> 00:37:52.800
that tool, and then I just
read a little bit about that. Just

420
00:37:53.119 --> 00:37:58.280
let's say if in case you have
options to play that, they can give

421
00:37:58.320 --> 00:38:00.360
you a free account for example,
you can play with that. So it's

422
00:38:01.320 --> 00:38:07.480
let's see. Maybe also because of
these things are quick, you know,

423
00:38:07.800 --> 00:38:13.800
yeah, yeah, so that's go
ahead. One. Have you found anything

424
00:38:13.800 --> 00:38:17.440
particularly interesting in your you know,
journeys through creating getting all these products and

425
00:38:17.519 --> 00:38:22.119
you're like, wow, like I
didn't know there was this tool that did

426
00:38:22.159 --> 00:38:24.519
this thing. It would have helped
me so many times in the past.

427
00:38:27.079 --> 00:38:35.320
Yeah, yeah, I didn't know. There is a I don't know if

428
00:38:35.360 --> 00:38:42.599
you know getub, get lab CEI
and if you are if you are to

429
00:38:42.800 --> 00:38:47.199
run, let's say, uh,
if you want to run, let's say

430
00:38:47.519 --> 00:38:52.440
runners. I mean you see,
I mean pipelines. You need to have

431
00:38:52.360 --> 00:38:58.239
runners to run for sure. And
I did not know that is I think

432
00:38:58.320 --> 00:39:04.320
it's was quite a pretty with this
tool. And this tool actually simplify the

433
00:39:05.039 --> 00:39:09.039
management of the runners of the Good
Club actually, and yeah, I actually

434
00:39:09.079 --> 00:39:15.559
experiment to that, give me account
actually and experiment to that and looks like

435
00:39:15.679 --> 00:39:21.440
it's very very interesting. Actually tool
you can spin up runs quickly actually just

436
00:39:21.519 --> 00:39:25.800
connected to the gidlub and then so
yeah, there's some which is which are

437
00:39:27.159 --> 00:39:32.920
very good actually, yeah, and
simplify the works that's definitely unsolved bootstrapping problem

438
00:39:34.000 --> 00:39:37.000
and develops maybe someone hasn't Yeah,
how do you how do you have the

439
00:39:37.119 --> 00:39:42.880
runners already working before you show up
on the first day, Because as far

440
00:39:42.920 --> 00:39:45.960
as I can tell, there's a
manual deployment that's got to happen where you

441
00:39:45.000 --> 00:39:49.440
click some buttons somewhere and be like, Okay, finally I can let the

442
00:39:49.960 --> 00:39:53.360
you know, machines do their work
now without uh, manually playing with them

443
00:39:53.440 --> 00:40:00.360
over and over again. Yeah,
that one is still in review because I

444
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:06.679
put a tag reviewed so the people
can know what is the status of the

445
00:40:06.760 --> 00:40:10.320
poll request and that on it's I
think it's a review if I'm not wrong.

446
00:40:10.639 --> 00:40:15.920
But anyway, I'm playing with with
that tool. So every prequest which

447
00:40:15.960 --> 00:40:22.039
I have, let's say there's a
new tool, I just play with that

448
00:40:22.119 --> 00:40:24.000
tool. I will try to play
with that tool in case they give me

449
00:40:24.360 --> 00:40:31.559
this dis option or I just read
the documentation if it's quite valid for me,

450
00:40:32.960 --> 00:40:37.519
and then yeah, just based on
this, I can I can march

451
00:40:37.599 --> 00:40:44.960
actually that the changes. Yeah,
but what's new tools? Yeah, you

452
00:40:45.079 --> 00:40:51.079
need to spend a little bit time. Yeah, yeah, because this Yeah

453
00:40:52.480 --> 00:40:54.480
yeah, I mean it's not let's
say, it doesn't take too much.

454
00:40:54.800 --> 00:41:00.079
But maybe because of the experience,
I don't know. Yeah, I'm in

455
00:41:00.199 --> 00:41:04.519
other spaces with especially physical products.
I know companies will give you, you

456
00:41:04.599 --> 00:41:07.280
know, send you a copy of
whatever it is so you can try it

457
00:41:07.360 --> 00:41:13.920
out and post a hopefully glowing review
on your stream or YouTube or whatever.

458
00:41:14.480 --> 00:41:19.280
I actually hadn't considered the possibility of
that for for software tools. You know,

459
00:41:19.400 --> 00:41:22.320
I guess maybe here's my pitch right
now. You know, come companies,

460
00:41:22.400 --> 00:41:23.400
you know, let us you know
know, you know, give us

461
00:41:23.400 --> 00:41:27.119
a free version of whatever you've got, and you know we'll we'll test it

462
00:41:27.199 --> 00:41:32.280
out. I think it's a quite
a great opportunity for them to get users.

463
00:41:32.800 --> 00:41:37.239
Not just put a random promotional link
that people can click on, but

464
00:41:37.480 --> 00:41:40.880
actually, uh, you know you're
willing to bring it in, talk about

465
00:41:40.880 --> 00:41:45.239
it, actually test it out and
use it and put it give the feedback.

466
00:41:45.920 --> 00:41:49.960
I get that from my YouTube channel, Like companies will approach me and

467
00:41:50.000 --> 00:41:52.920
say, hey, will you try
out our product and do a video on

468
00:41:53.079 --> 00:41:58.679
your thoughts about it? Yeah,
that work out so well so far.

469
00:41:59.760 --> 00:42:06.280
Not really. Now, maybe that's
not the right answer. I should say

470
00:42:06.360 --> 00:42:10.920
I haven't done many of them because
for me, it's I know that me

471
00:42:12.239 --> 00:42:16.719
personally, like whenever I first look
at a new tool, I'm like,

472
00:42:17.079 --> 00:42:23.280
oh man, this is cool,
and I get I artificially inflate my excitement

473
00:42:23.360 --> 00:42:28.679
about it. But then whenever I
come back the second time, I look

474
00:42:28.719 --> 00:42:30.840
at it from a more pragmatic point
of view and say, well, is

475
00:42:30.920 --> 00:42:37.639
this really solving a problem that I
have, or is this me playing with

476
00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:42.679
a tool pretending to solve a problem
and that time and effort you know,

477
00:42:42.840 --> 00:42:45.000
for me, I just know me
in my personality, I have to go

478
00:42:45.119 --> 00:42:50.559
through that process before I can get
a full accurate picture of it. And

479
00:42:50.719 --> 00:42:55.159
the time and effort it takes to
do that in a YouTube video just hasn't

480
00:42:55.199 --> 00:43:00.280
been a good fit for me.
So I I haven't done Actually many of

481
00:43:00.280 --> 00:43:04.480
those. I've been approached many times, but I haven't done it. There's

482
00:43:04.480 --> 00:43:07.960
a real challenge there, a time
investment to really understand how a tool works.

483
00:43:07.960 --> 00:43:08.840
I mean, I'm on the opposite
side of the spectrum. I see

484
00:43:08.880 --> 00:43:14.880
something and I'm like, I don't
want that. I mean, maybe it's

485
00:43:14.960 --> 00:43:16.400
great, but I look at it, my first reaction is like, that's

486
00:43:16.519 --> 00:43:21.480
just extra overhead or extra effort to
pull on yet additional tool. Like we

487
00:43:21.559 --> 00:43:25.599
have to remember that every time we
had a tool, that's extra cognitive overhead

488
00:43:25.760 --> 00:43:30.800
for everyone involved to have to think
about and deal with, which is a

489
00:43:30.920 --> 00:43:35.199
real concern, and the only way
to reduce that overhead is by using less

490
00:43:35.440 --> 00:43:38.079
tools in some way. Unfortunately,
there's not a lot of alternatives there.

491
00:43:38.199 --> 00:43:45.440
But I didn't the decision on buy
versus buy versus by is also incredibly challenging

492
00:43:45.559 --> 00:43:49.159
to know whether or not a tool
be the right one. One of the

493
00:43:49.280 --> 00:43:54.119
things that keeps coming back to me
I wasn't a methodology that I had a

494
00:43:54.159 --> 00:43:58.320
lot of experience with early on in
myine career is this idea of one way

495
00:43:58.440 --> 00:44:01.119
versus two way doors, where if
you're trying to pick a tool that you

496
00:44:01.280 --> 00:44:06.679
want or even make a decision,
if it's an easy, reversible decision,

497
00:44:06.800 --> 00:44:10.039
or the impact of that decision is
low, then it doesn't matter which way

498
00:44:10.079 --> 00:44:13.599
you go, and you might as
well just flip a coin and pick one

499
00:44:13.679 --> 00:44:19.639
and go from there, because you
can regret that decision and just make an

500
00:44:19.639 --> 00:44:22.679
easy change. But if there's a
huge impact of the organization or you'll be

501
00:44:22.719 --> 00:44:25.440
bought in for a long period of
time, then you'll be forced to pay

502
00:44:25.519 --> 00:44:29.559
that cost if you do make a
mistake. But even then it's good to

503
00:44:29.559 --> 00:44:31.320
think about how to separate it out
into multiple pieces, like can you make

504
00:44:31.360 --> 00:44:37.199
a decision at a smaller level instead
of buying the whole tool and getting a

505
00:44:37.360 --> 00:44:42.880
three year license deeal for that,
and then that becomes the justification for continued

506
00:44:42.960 --> 00:44:45.840
usage. Go with a one year
license and then revisit after a couple of

507
00:44:45.960 --> 00:44:52.480
years of renewing it. I think
I'd heard that before, but it's never

508
00:44:52.559 --> 00:44:55.440
really stuck. But hearing you say
it, I'm like, oh, yeah,

509
00:44:55.559 --> 00:45:00.280
that makes a lot of sense.
Sometimes these things work on other people,

510
00:45:00.599 --> 00:45:02.800
right, Like they get stuck in
a decision and you got to figure

511
00:45:02.840 --> 00:45:07.519
out what the right words are to
say to help them unstick themselves. I

512
00:45:07.599 --> 00:45:10.440
think another one that comes up very
often is one tool to solve all of

513
00:45:10.519 --> 00:45:15.880
your problems. I think you may
have heard of the single pane of glass,

514
00:45:15.800 --> 00:45:20.199
which I'm not a huge fan of, but I think it goes around

515
00:45:20.199 --> 00:45:23.679
in a lot of the marketing team, sales teams, business analytics that realistically,

516
00:45:23.719 --> 00:45:25.719
as a user, like I want
to use my ID, right,

517
00:45:25.800 --> 00:45:28.800
Like I want to go in there, and that's the only thing I need

518
00:45:28.840 --> 00:45:31.559
to worry about, Like I like
get the command line. I'm sure someone's

519
00:45:31.679 --> 00:45:35.639
like, well, how can you
like the command line? But then we

520
00:45:35.719 --> 00:45:40.440
have a venuser right here, so
but you know, like that's mine,

521
00:45:40.559 --> 00:45:44.079
right, Like I don't want to
have to leave that tool unless I really

522
00:45:44.159 --> 00:45:45.760
need to, unless I'm testing a
UI, and I obviously don't do that

523
00:45:45.920 --> 00:45:52.079
very frequently, but the same is
true in other areas. So definitely consolidating

524
00:45:52.119 --> 00:45:54.159
that can be helpful. But at
the same time, if you're overutilizing a

525
00:45:54.239 --> 00:46:00.280
tool to do something that isn't necessarily
meant to do or creates extra channel es,

526
00:46:00.360 --> 00:46:05.239
it is better to have too in
other situations for sure, Marius,

527
00:46:05.320 --> 00:46:09.800
what's your favorite what's your favorite tool
that you've learned about as a result of

528
00:46:09.920 --> 00:46:21.519
curating this website. Ah, it's
sun stuck actually really right, an not

529
00:46:21.760 --> 00:46:28.000
only you can do configuration management just
putting a file on the selver, just

530
00:46:28.440 --> 00:46:31.480
dorink a lot of bunch, I
mean, doing a lot of things.

531
00:46:34.000 --> 00:46:37.920
Even if you have let's say,
to pray some reasons in the cloud,

532
00:46:37.000 --> 00:46:43.599
you can do that or let's say, type in a command in see a

533
00:46:43.719 --> 00:46:49.880
life from one thousand servers for example. At the same time, so I

534
00:46:49.960 --> 00:46:55.000
think for me, it's interesting how
actually it's capable, Yeah, this tool

535
00:46:57.239 --> 00:47:01.400
and you can do a lot of
things there. This one looks interesting,

536
00:47:02.559 --> 00:47:09.400
I mean most it's is the one
which I like most. Actually, yeah,

537
00:47:10.000 --> 00:47:15.000
right, I actually haven't used to
myself. That's like a advanced version

538
00:47:15.039 --> 00:47:19.719
of like puppet chef Antable or something
like that, And it does configuration management.

539
00:47:19.880 --> 00:47:23.800
Yes, exactly. It's similar with
tensible, but the difference is UH

540
00:47:25.760 --> 00:47:30.280
has a master. Actually it's working
like a massive and slave. But with

541
00:47:30.400 --> 00:47:37.960
the new version intends also what Exible
is doing with SSA CHA. But yeah,

542
00:47:37.079 --> 00:47:42.159
it's I use this tool, to
be honest, to do a lot

543
00:47:42.239 --> 00:47:50.360
of things, for example, grabbing
all the information from those CEREB it's in

544
00:47:50.400 --> 00:47:53.199
the real time actually, because you
have a slave for each of the servers.

545
00:47:53.239 --> 00:48:01.239
That's I had more than five hundred
top five thousands, and it's hard

546
00:48:01.320 --> 00:48:06.559
to let's say, to keep eye
on the services when it's failing. When

547
00:48:06.599 --> 00:48:09.719
you let's say, execute the sole
stack for example. Uh, and I

548
00:48:09.880 --> 00:48:15.000
use this tool to grab the information
in real time in the graph to see

549
00:48:15.119 --> 00:48:17.480
when it's failing. What is the
server it's failing. What is the line

550
00:48:17.519 --> 00:48:24.599
it's failing of the states states it's
state, it's the file Actually it's sol

551
00:48:24.639 --> 00:48:30.039
stack it's executing. So it's you
can do a lot of things. Yeah,

552
00:48:32.000 --> 00:48:39.559
that's cool. Yeah, I have
a tool which gives you at least

553
00:48:39.639 --> 00:48:45.719
expassibility. You can, let's say, do more things. Even let's say

554
00:48:46.840 --> 00:48:51.320
I mean you cannot do that in
that time, for example, but you

555
00:48:51.440 --> 00:48:55.199
have a gate, you have a
way you can extend for other things.

556
00:48:55.639 --> 00:49:00.159
I think it's the best tool,
is the best to the Yeah, for

557
00:49:00.280 --> 00:49:06.719
example, Kubernets, all of us, most Kubernets. Kubernet is not only

558
00:49:06.920 --> 00:49:10.480
just run the application, right,
you can run jobs. You can run

559
00:49:12.719 --> 00:49:16.519
let's say, you can extend for
other capabilities with the CRD for example,

560
00:49:16.559 --> 00:49:21.159
you can keep the data by the
way, yeah, as a as the

561
00:49:21.199 --> 00:49:25.280
objects at c D for example.
Yeah, you can do a lot of

562
00:49:25.400 --> 00:49:32.000
things. Yeah, it's yeah for
sure. So what's the future of awesome

563
00:49:32.039 --> 00:49:35.239
DevOps look like? What kind of
things have you got planned for it?

564
00:49:36.280 --> 00:49:45.239
Yeah? Yeah, the future of
develops it's right. Now, First of

565
00:49:45.320 --> 00:49:51.400
all, you need to put price
for each of the tool because yeah,

566
00:49:52.320 --> 00:49:59.679
because most of them they're trying to
put commercial let's say link and it's good

567
00:49:59.760 --> 00:50:06.960
to have at least from the single
view. The view you just enter the

568
00:50:07.000 --> 00:50:10.760
website and then see the the list. You just it's a it takes I

569
00:50:10.840 --> 00:50:15.519
mean, the decision. It's it's
quicker if it's free, for example,

570
00:50:15.960 --> 00:50:20.280
right, so you will see,
uh, what is the price for that

571
00:50:20.400 --> 00:50:24.000
tool? For example? The other
one that I don't know if it's included

572
00:50:24.039 --> 00:50:30.639
in these as the books, but
it's okay to be I think it's to

573
00:50:30.800 --> 00:50:38.239
put a framework in place, actually
a framework which brings the organizations how they

574
00:50:38.280 --> 00:50:45.599
can adapt the bobs quickly and what
are the steps, what are the tool

575
00:50:45.679 --> 00:50:49.519
but the tools as an example,
not let's say you need to use these

576
00:50:49.599 --> 00:50:53.800
tools, but at least they give
this this This framework should give the let's

577
00:50:53.800 --> 00:51:00.280
say the management for example, to
grab the bobs quicker in the com money

578
00:51:00.360 --> 00:51:05.280
for example, how the teams should
be structured, how they should communicate,

579
00:51:05.719 --> 00:51:12.599
what are the tools, what are
the workflows or process or what are the

580
00:51:12.719 --> 00:51:19.639
things they need to automate or whatever
it's in the devil. It's it's better

581
00:51:19.840 --> 00:51:29.440
to have these including should it should
be something complete, you know, take

582
00:51:29.519 --> 00:51:36.039
this and then do do the devils
into organization. Hm. I see we

583
00:51:36.079 --> 00:51:37.639
were smiling a little bit. I
mean there is something about that that scares

584
00:51:37.679 --> 00:51:42.320
me not not having it. But
like if I look at the Agile manifesto

585
00:51:42.840 --> 00:51:46.920
and then I look to see how
the word agile is being used today or

586
00:51:47.119 --> 00:51:52.159
used incorrectly today, Uh, you
know, I feel like everyone's sort of

587
00:51:52.199 --> 00:51:57.320
done the wrong thing with develops as
well. So it's sort of an unfortunate

588
00:51:57.360 --> 00:52:01.800
situation that companies adapt what they're doing
they don't understand a word or a mindset,

589
00:52:02.280 --> 00:52:07.199
and then map into what they're already
doing or what they already understand.

590
00:52:07.239 --> 00:52:09.079
I think that's sort of just humanity, right, It's there's not a lot

591
00:52:09.119 --> 00:52:13.280
that can be down there. So
I think having a roadmap for how to

592
00:52:13.679 --> 00:52:16.719
actually implement that in your organization,
I think there is value there. I

593
00:52:16.800 --> 00:52:22.960
can just see, you know,
there'll be eventually a safe version of oh

594
00:52:22.039 --> 00:52:27.920
yeah, and in a last version, and I don't know how I feel

595
00:52:27.920 --> 00:52:35.760
about that. At least they can
give the basic information. I don't know

596
00:52:35.880 --> 00:52:40.320
how they can start because I saw
people I don't know what is the starting

597
00:52:40.400 --> 00:52:45.719
point actually to adopt this or something
like that. Or they can give you

598
00:52:45.360 --> 00:52:51.840
high over let's say, I don't
know, they can easy pick up maybe

599
00:52:52.360 --> 00:52:59.679
easy, but yeah, at least
they have starting point there. Yeah,

600
00:52:59.679 --> 00:53:05.719
I think it's I think one of
the cool aspects of that approach is asking,

601
00:53:06.119 --> 00:53:08.840
like creating the framework from a why
are you here perspective, like,

602
00:53:09.079 --> 00:53:14.599
Okay, you're interested in DevOps,
but why what's the problem you're trying to

603
00:53:14.679 --> 00:53:22.280
solve? Because the answer to that
might change the path that they're pursuing and

604
00:53:22.599 --> 00:53:29.199
lead them to results quicker. He
just wanted his end to talk about selling

605
00:53:29.719 --> 00:53:32.679
things and education and like where is
your customer at right? You know,

606
00:53:32.719 --> 00:53:35.800
when they end up on a landing
page, you know what are they looking

607
00:53:35.880 --> 00:53:37.639
for? Are they looking for?
What is? Like I heard some cool

608
00:53:37.760 --> 00:53:40.760
kids saying the term DevOps and I
don't know what that means. I want

609
00:53:40.840 --> 00:53:44.639
someone to tell me what it is. And the difference of like, wow,

610
00:53:44.800 --> 00:53:47.039
you know, it's perfectly aligned with
what we're currently trying to do.

611
00:53:47.119 --> 00:53:51.079
And we're innovators in the space and
we want to know more. We want

612
00:53:51.119 --> 00:53:53.079
to know toolfless and other things that
we can be doing. And this is

613
00:53:53.119 --> 00:53:57.920
a huge, a massive spectrum from
one side to the other, and I

614
00:53:58.000 --> 00:54:01.119
think capturing that is quite a challenge, right, Like even individual products go

615
00:54:01.679 --> 00:54:07.119
and have a very narrow mindset of
what their audience actually looks. Like Mary

616
00:54:07.199 --> 00:54:13.079
said that, you know more of
the expert practitioners who probably are looking for

617
00:54:13.199 --> 00:54:19.360
ways to convince their organization to implement
develops more effectively, rather than the I

618
00:54:19.400 --> 00:54:22.639
don't know what develops is, but
I'm sure we're doing it because we're a

619
00:54:22.679 --> 00:54:36.440
great company. By you also,
I mean a couple of years, Uh,

620
00:54:36.880 --> 00:54:39.719
someone asked me in the interview,
actually, what is the the bops?

621
00:54:42.000 --> 00:54:45.440
I explain a little bit blah blah
blah. And he asked me,

622
00:54:45.679 --> 00:54:50.280
you are contributed to source? Yeah, I have I contribute, but mostly

623
00:54:50.320 --> 00:54:53.119
let's say some of the bobs people
they just give this as some of the

624
00:54:53.199 --> 00:54:58.880
bobs. And he told me why
he didn't give this when I ask you

625
00:54:59.480 --> 00:55:07.760
what is the wolves? I think
and I think it's a good idea.

626
00:55:07.840 --> 00:55:12.119
Actually, if you want to see
what is that the wolves? Just keep

627
00:55:12.199 --> 00:55:15.480
the link. I don't want to
answer, I just give this link.

628
00:55:15.559 --> 00:55:24.199
I feel like this is this challenge
the other way around though, because people

629
00:55:24.239 --> 00:55:27.880
don't like reading things right, so
like I feel like you have to make

630
00:55:27.920 --> 00:55:31.920
a custom message for each person otherwise
like oh you know what, that answer

631
00:55:32.039 --> 00:55:36.239
is one hundred percent defined at this, like just you want to go here,

632
00:55:36.440 --> 00:55:38.840
like trust me, just read this. And they still don't want to

633
00:55:38.880 --> 00:55:45.599
do that. Yeah, what's funny? What's funny? Right on? Well,

634
00:55:46.000 --> 00:55:49.840
yeah, I think we've covered it, Like that's this is a super

635
00:55:49.920 --> 00:55:52.199
cool resource. Like I keep scrolling. I've been scrolling through it and looking

636
00:55:52.239 --> 00:55:58.800
at it as we've been doing this
entire episode, and it's very very thorough

637
00:55:58.920 --> 00:56:02.199
it's easy to navigate. It's really
really well done. So congratulations on that

638
00:56:02.239 --> 00:56:06.480
because you've been doing this. I
was looking at the getubstat you've been doing

639
00:56:06.519 --> 00:56:09.280
this for like five years now.
Yeah, it's a long time. Actually,

640
00:56:09.760 --> 00:56:14.480
yeah, that's commitment right there.
That's impressive. And I think one

641
00:56:14.480 --> 00:56:20.800
of the cool things about that is
that's five years of history and changing tools,

642
00:56:20.920 --> 00:56:25.280
adding new tools, removing older tools, with consistent updates. So I

643
00:56:25.360 --> 00:56:30.559
think that alone just gives us a
lot of value as far as being a

644
00:56:30.719 --> 00:56:36.039
relevant resource. And not only this, but it's help you. Actually,

645
00:56:36.840 --> 00:56:40.719
it's helped you so to see if
that tool is still available in the market.

646
00:56:40.840 --> 00:56:45.880
You know, I saw some of
the links. Oh the tool does

647
00:56:45.960 --> 00:56:51.400
not exist anymore, or it's in
the high mode or something like that.

648
00:56:51.639 --> 00:56:54.840
So it's it's it's nice. It's
nice to help. Also this updated,

649
00:56:54.960 --> 00:57:02.400
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
awesome. Well should we do some picks

650
00:57:04.199 --> 00:57:07.079
for sure? Right on, Warren, what'd you bring for us this week?

651
00:57:07.639 --> 00:57:13.639
Yeah? So I was reminded recently
how the DEVOVS movement may have been

652
00:57:13.679 --> 00:57:17.519
started in the agile mindset, and
actually before that was lean, which comes

653
00:57:17.559 --> 00:57:22.960
from manufacturing. So many people don't
know about this Lean is all about eliminating

654
00:57:22.000 --> 00:57:29.880
waste in organizations, most specifically manufacturing. And there's a book that really categorizes

655
00:57:29.920 --> 00:57:34.000
this, primarily called the Toyota Way, and it contains a bunch of principles

656
00:57:34.039 --> 00:57:38.199
they say management principles, but realistically
they're how to achieve more effective flow in

657
00:57:38.760 --> 00:57:43.360
your development team. You can have
lean software engineering. And I learned about

658
00:57:43.360 --> 00:57:47.039
this before agile realistically, and it's
really affected my mindset and put me in

659
00:57:47.079 --> 00:57:52.480
a direction of it's not just about
doing things quickly, but really understanding the

660
00:57:52.559 --> 00:57:57.719
overhead in any number of aspects.
The one that I find most interesting is

661
00:57:57.960 --> 00:58:02.880
a product that's been delivered has a
negative impact on your organization because until you

662
00:58:02.920 --> 00:58:07.039
start getting money in or delivering that
delivers value to your customers, it's sitting

663
00:58:07.119 --> 00:58:12.679
on the shelf and it requires maintenance
and upkeep in order to make sure that

664
00:58:12.719 --> 00:58:15.880
it's still effective. And so if
a product isn't actually returning enough value,

665
00:58:16.119 --> 00:58:20.280
the best thing you can do for
your organization is delete it. And I

666
00:58:20.360 --> 00:58:22.440
feel like that's a mindset that is
lost on a lot of people, and

667
00:58:22.760 --> 00:58:28.320
being in the devov space, it's
super critical for us to help remind others

668
00:58:28.360 --> 00:58:31.119
that there is it's not just free, Like you don't just write something once

669
00:58:31.199 --> 00:58:35.840
and throw it out there and then
you don't have to do anything after that.

670
00:58:36.320 --> 00:58:42.159
Yeah, that's a very very valid
point. Working a lot with early

671
00:58:42.239 --> 00:58:45.239
stage startups that, like I do, I advocate a lot like you have

672
00:58:45.440 --> 00:58:51.559
to define the success criteria, like
this product, when we launch it within

673
00:58:51.719 --> 00:58:57.199
six months has to be meeting these
objectives otherwise we're deleting it for that very

674
00:58:57.280 --> 00:59:04.760
reason. That's that takes some real
discipline to actually achieve the like congrats,

675
00:59:04.880 --> 00:59:08.280
Like that's not easily done. Yeah, it's it's not easy by any means,

676
00:59:08.320 --> 00:59:14.119
because when you even if when you
define those criteria, like when you

677
00:59:14.440 --> 00:59:17.840
get to the measurement day, like
you're emotionally attached to this thing, and

678
00:59:17.960 --> 00:59:22.159
so then you try to like massage
the criteria and say like, wow,

679
00:59:22.239 --> 00:59:24.840
we didn't really hit that, but
we do have this and and you have

680
00:59:24.960 --> 00:59:31.119
to be It works best when you're
just brutally honest with everyone and are in

681
00:59:31.199 --> 00:59:35.559
a group of people where you can
call each other out on your bullshit.

682
00:59:36.960 --> 00:59:39.159
I like, you know, I
think what helps me here is I use

683
00:59:39.239 --> 00:59:43.719
the mindset. If we didn't have
this anymore, you know, we're at

684
00:59:43.760 --> 00:59:45.000
the day, Like, let's let's
take it. Put everything on the table,

685
00:59:45.079 --> 00:59:47.280
Like, we have no engineers,
we have no product, we have

686
00:59:47.360 --> 00:59:52.599
no software done at all. Would
we today hire a group of engineers to

687
00:59:52.679 --> 00:59:57.159
go and rebuild this thing by buying
it off the shelf and buying them all?

688
00:59:57.199 --> 01:00:00.280
And often you're like, wait,
no, actually I don't want to

689
01:00:00.360 --> 01:00:02.800
do that, you know, knowing
what we know now and then that's a

690
01:00:02.840 --> 01:00:07.119
good indicator for what you should do
and how to separate the current state from

691
01:00:07.320 --> 01:00:12.800
whatever mindset or unfortunate attachment you have
to that. Right on, Marius,

692
01:00:12.960 --> 01:00:22.639
what'd you bring for a pick?
No, fair enough, I'll give you

693
01:00:22.679 --> 01:00:25.639
a minute to think about it.
I'll go next. So my pick,

694
01:00:27.599 --> 01:00:30.360
if you have been listening to the
show recently, this one's not going to

695
01:00:30.400 --> 01:00:37.239
surprise you on once again picking platform
con. We've got the list of speakers

696
01:00:37.039 --> 01:00:40.280
are out on the website now,
and so at the end of the conference,

697
01:00:40.280 --> 01:00:44.679
I'm going to be doing a live
Q and a session with some of

698
01:00:44.760 --> 01:00:50.760
those speakers, asking them questions.
So I'm treating this as a way to

699
01:00:50.960 --> 01:00:57.800
like get to like the humans behind
the talks, you know, and learn

700
01:00:57.920 --> 01:01:01.159
like the people who are doing this
and what what they're into and what drives

701
01:01:01.199 --> 01:01:06.239
and motivates them. So if they're
specific questions you want me to ask them,

702
01:01:07.199 --> 01:01:14.320
hit me up on XAKA, Twitter
or email or whatever place you see

703
01:01:14.360 --> 01:01:17.920
me hanging out online and let me
know what your questions are. And platform

704
01:01:19.000 --> 01:01:24.039
Con is coming up in June.
It's five days this week and five full

705
01:01:24.159 --> 01:01:30.760
days live streamed, one hundred percent
free, tons of great speakers. Check

706
01:01:30.800 --> 01:01:34.199
it out platform con dot com.
Yeah, I mean, don't miss your

707
01:01:34.199 --> 01:01:37.639
opportunity to bug Will on this,
honestly, because I find a lot of

708
01:01:37.679 --> 01:01:39.760
the value at conferences is sort of
the human interaction, the questions that come

709
01:01:39.840 --> 01:01:44.880
up afterwards. You can go lots
of places and watch arbitrary content on YouTube

710
01:01:44.880 --> 01:01:47.039
and whatnot, so you know,
don't if you see something there interesting,

711
01:01:47.159 --> 01:01:52.480
definitely forward the question. Yeah,
for sure. It's like so many of

712
01:01:52.559 --> 01:01:55.599
the talks. You know, whenever
we give talks, we are in a

713
01:01:55.639 --> 01:02:00.199
bubble and we talk about what we
think is going to be interesting, and

714
01:02:00.320 --> 01:02:05.000
there's there's all kinds of questions,
and sometimes there's just like questions like you

715
01:02:05.119 --> 01:02:07.960
see someone giving a talk and you're
like, Wow, that person is doing

716
01:02:07.039 --> 01:02:13.000
something really cool. What could I
learn from them? And this is your

717
01:02:13.079 --> 01:02:16.199
chance to ask those questions? All
right, back to you, Marius,

718
01:02:16.320 --> 01:02:22.280
Which guy can be anything? Can
be anything? Yeah, content, you

719
01:02:22.320 --> 01:02:27.840
know, something great personal life or
something technical if you prefer that, Yeah,

720
01:02:27.920 --> 01:02:36.079
I think going to some technical Actually, uh, I didn't experiment anything

721
01:02:37.440 --> 01:02:40.880
except the technical part because yeah,
it's there is no type or other things.

722
01:02:42.559 --> 01:02:51.480
But yeah, but if you let's
say you want to learn something,

723
01:02:52.440 --> 01:03:00.480
uh, you need to experiment.
And by experiment you can none. You

724
01:03:00.599 --> 01:03:07.840
can let's say you can grab that, let's say piece very quickly. You

725
01:03:07.920 --> 01:03:14.760
can even speak about that. You
can let's say you can build. Actually,

726
01:03:14.920 --> 01:03:21.360
so I think it's not you don't
need let's say, well, it's

727
01:03:21.400 --> 01:03:25.679
not enough to read. It's it's
better to experiment. Actually, and I

728
01:03:25.760 --> 01:03:30.960
think for all the people who are
listening, if you want to, for

729
01:03:30.159 --> 01:03:38.960
the new people who actually want to, let's jump in specific area, it's

730
01:03:39.079 --> 01:03:46.639
not enough to read just experimentals.
Yeah, one hundred percent agree, absolutely

731
01:03:46.760 --> 01:03:52.079
truth. All right, excellent,
Well Marius, thank you for joining us.
