THE SURPRISING SIMILARITIES OF KUNG FU AND DEVOPS BY ERIK
ZAADI | DEC 12, 2016
TEAM LEADER AND COMMUNITY GUY ERIKZAADI
t DEVOPS FU - ORIGINS MOAR ABOUT ME • Been
training various Martial Arts since I started hacking on Commodore 64. • Been training Wu Wei Gung Fu since 2008
t DISCLAIMER SRZLY, THIS DUDE? I’m officially LAME! In Kung
Fu, like in production, shit happens. Instead of data loss, I got a teared calf muscle (yay!). sudo rm -rf /leg
t {K,G}UNG FU WHAT IS KUNG FU? • Being your
best at something through hard work and practice
t A TALE OF A DEVOPS / KUNG FU PADAWAN
THE RISING • Everything is hard and frustrating • You keep on getting bruises • You barely walk after each encounter
t HURT IS FUN THEN IT IMPROVES • Muscle memory
• Things are less hard • Discover helpful tools • No longer the youngest junior • Not as intimidated
t ZOMG I KNOW ALL THE MOVES “YOU KNOW IT
ALL” • Get cocky => Get sloppy
t ZOMG I REALLY DON’T KNOW ALL THE MOVES YOU
GET WHOPPED, BADLY
t HUMBLE IN DEFEAT HURT BUT STILL BREATHING • You
get up • Start learning again • Get better
t GAIN XP LETHAL TOOLS • Knives / Bash •
Sticks / Tmux • Nunchucks / Ansible • God Mode / Google
t POUR IT ON DEALING WITH IT • Extreme situations
t FALSE GOD SYNDROME AGAIN WHOPPED AGAIN • Senior Narrow
Vision • Youngster with fresh eyes
t SLOWLY YOU GATHER ACHIEVEMENTS GAIN LEVELS
t GIVING BACK CONTRIBUTING FTW • Community • Open source
• Training
t AFTER YEARS OF EXPERIENCE ZEN ARRIVES • Can never
know everything • Must always learn and keep up • Sharing knowledge is the best way of learning • You never never never E - V - E - R z lose passion for what you do
HERE'S A PICTURE OF ABSOLUTE ZEN TO SUMMARIZE:
