Not an end. 15:35 pdurbin spilth: your live blogging is rather a nice birthday present for us :) 15:36 spilth DevOps is not how often you "deploy". 15:37 spilth My perspective - This sounds similar to how people talk about "Agile". Just cause you're pairing or using CI or unit tests doesn't automatically make you agile. 15:38 spilth Lesson: Maintain Perspective 15:39 spilth Auotmation increases the impact of your average Snafu 15:40 spilth Automation 15:42 spilth Automation requires a human decision, safeguards and accountability & audit trails. 15:47 spilth Making a new, separate DevOps team = FAIL 15:49 spilth I am editorializing some of these, I guess 15:49 spilth Or summarizing 15:50 spilth hahah. HugOps 15:51 spilth ChatOps = IRC Bots with root 15:51 spilth https://twitter.com/wickett is live tweeting nicely too 15:52 spilth Lesson: Trust does not scale. 15:53 spilth DevOps is evolution, not revolution. 15:56 spilth Question: Is DevOps a threat to the way things are working. 15:56 pdurbin 121 watching now but i'm dropping off 15:56 pdurbin spilth: keep it up! :) 15:56 spilth Answer: Evolve. Grow. Figure out how to do things better or you will be left behind. 15:57 spilth Thanks :-) 16:01 spilth Now speaking: Dave Zwieback (@mindweather) from Knewton 16:02 spilth Talking about DevOps Hiring 16:05 spilth https://twitter.com/hipsterhacker 16:07 spilth He's pulled a bunch of titles from LinkedIn that include the work "DevOps" 16:08 larsks Hey, I'm here, too. 16:08 larsks Fun talks so far :). 16:08 pdurbin spilth: can you please find dave after and tell him hello for me? i interviewed with him :) 16:09 spilth Dave Zwieback? 16:09 pdurbin larsks: or you :) 16:10 pdurbin then go listen to this, which is great: Episode 15: How to Succeed in DevOps with Dave Zwieback - Food Fight - http://foodfightshow.org/2012/05/episode-15-how-to-succeed-in-devops.html 16:14 spilth Asking who has deleted their LinkedIn account or who has thought about it. 16:15 spilth Suggest that DevOps people don't hang out on LinkedIn 16:20 spilth They check GitHub, Meetup, HackerNews, Twitter 16:20 spilth for potential "devops" hires 16:21 spilth these "dark pools" of candidates 16:29 spilth break time 16:49 spilth Back from the break 16:49 spilth pdurbin: I said hi to Dave for you ;-) 16:49 pdurbin oh good! thanks :) 16:50 pdurbin he's a great guy 16:52 spilth Talked to Jeffrey Fredrick too (https://twitter.com/Jtf).

That was part of somebody's presentation 17:57 * JoeJulian is slow on the uptake... no caffeine yet. 17:59 JoeJulian I used to use foreman but switching to puppetdb broke what I had working. 18:00 spilth pdurbin: Maybe I should prefix my live blogging with [devopsdays] or something? 18:02 JoeJulian No, any reasonable person could have looked at the entire page of scrollback and figured that out. 18:05 spilth https://github.com/sensu/sensu - monitoring framework 18:05 spilth https://github.com/paperlesspost/graphiti - alternative graphite front end 18:08 spilth "Quit your job!" 18:09 spilth Leveling-up Ignite talk from https://twitter.com/nathenharvey 18:10 spilth "Step our of your comfort zone" 18:11 spilth Couple of people mentioned http://www.pagerduty.com/ so far 18:15 spilth https://github.com/Knewton/graphduty - Graphite + PagerDuty 18:16 spilth Lunch break 18:16 spilth bbiab 19:41 spilth Open Spaces starting no 19:41 spilth now 19:41 spilth MC'd by Patrick Debois - http://www.jedi.be/blog/ 19:42 spilth "It starts when it starts." 19:43 spilth "It ends when it ends." 19:43 spilth http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-space_technology 19:53 spilth Session dedicated to Ops School - https://ops-school.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ 21:13 _bene_ hi, i'm ben 21:13 _bene_ pdurbin told me you all were serving up double helpings of awesomeness in this channel and i should check it out 21:13 _bene_ so... yeah 21:13 * _bene_ goes back about his business 21:15 JoeJulian Github's broken asciidoc (again). When I asked about a ticket to track the progress, "I am afraid you cannot track internal GitHub issues. Unfortunately it is going to take a while because the problem is rather serious. I am sorry for the trouble we are creating for you." 21:15 JoeJulian Irony. 21:23 pdurbin ben_e: i just did a quick search for starcluster in our logs and i don't see anything. but plenty of aws chatter in general 21:23 pdurbin crimsonfubot: lucky starcluster 21:23 crimsonfubot pdurbin: http://star.mit.edu/cluster/ 21:34 ben_e yeah, i chatted with one of the lead devs for an hour or more after a Boston Python Meetup presentation last june 21:34 ben_e he was super friendly and invited me over for a visit 21:34 ben_e although maybe that was the beer talking 21:47 pdurbin :) 21:47 pdurbin i tweeted at the boston python folks once and they seem very friendly 21:57 ben_e the boston django meetup is tonight at hubspot in cambridge 21:57 ben_e it's on unit and browser testing in django
