Recorded on Day 2 of DevOpsDays Chicago. Matt and Trevor are joined by a panel of attendees and organizers to talk about their experiences at the first ever DevOpsDays to take place in the Windy City. #deepdishdevops for everyone!

What was the first tech conference you attended? What are things you get from a conference that you cannot learn other ways? How can I maximize my value out of attending a conference? If I’m going to a conference where I don’t know anyone, how can I still have a good time? You both have planned conferences. What are some of the things that go into organizing that people might not be aware of? What is your favorite conference story? How do you learn about new events to attend? How do you pick which events you know about to go to? There are a lot, and it can be hard to narrow down when you only have a 1-2 conference limit from an employer, or your own resources. What was the coolest piece of “swag” you got from a conference? Does the swag at a conference weigh in for you at all? I hear a lot of noise around the big Google events because everyone knows they are walking away with hardware. Lets talk about conference etiquette, and discuss some of the points in Bridget's article Notes: Introversion and Tech Conferences by Tom Duffield Check Outs Jason Some of my favorite talks, first a couple from John Rauser: Look at Your Data Investigating Anomalies And another recent one from Kyle Kingsbury at Strangeloop: Jepsen II: Linearizable Boogaloo Bridget Local meetups on http://meetup.com (and this is the Minneapolis startup I mentioned: http://congruence.io) MonkeyLectric Bike Lights: http://www.monkeylectric.com Pete FPM - http://github.com/jordansissel/fpm Deb-S3 - http://github.com/krobertson/deb-s3 STM Aero Backpacks - http://www.stmbags.com/catalog/laptop-backpacks/aero-small-laptop-backpack/ Trevor Borderlands the PreSequel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpgMBivKR-w trailer video is hysterical.

What exactly do you security folks do all day? So let's talk about ZOMG SCARY CLOUDS I'm a developer. What do I need to know to help me be pals with InfoSec? Ops people know security, right? Or not? Common security mistakes/misconceptions How can InfoSec be better buddies with other functions? Are you tired of Matt calling it "InfoSec"? Does it remind you of Information Society?

What exactly does it mean to be a sysadmin? How do you define “sysadmin”? What is your favorite thing about devops? How does it change your life as a sysadmin? Matt has a belief that sysadmins are inherently cynical. Is he an idiot? What do you miss about “the good old days?” Alex Howells asks: “How often do you think ‘Fuck it all, I’m going to be a plumber or electrician?’" Video of guys changing tires while car is on two wheels http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WLwRg3erm4 Amazon Certified Sysops Admin Associate http://aws.amazon.com/certification/certification-levels/certified-sysops-admin-associate Check Outs Mike Ops School - http://www.opsschool.org/ Code School - http://www.codeschool.com/ Benziger wine - http://www.benziger.com/ Chris imfile plugin for rsyslog - http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/imfile.html iosnoop http://github.com/brendangregg/perf-tools/blob/master/iosnoop Jobs at DRW - http://drw.submit4jobs.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=83084.viewjobdetail&CID=83084&JID=166070 Brian Ohio Linux Fest - http://ohiolinux.org/registration Pogoplug http://trueability.com/ Trevor Humin for iPhones http://www.reddit.com/r/talesfromtechsupport/ Historic New England Matt LOLRoot - self signed cert authority (lolroot is actually from snorby,org, which is now owned by threatstack. all roads lead to Peak Cheslock) Bastard Operator from Hell - http://bofh.ntk.net/BOFH/ Registration is open for Chef Community Summit - ADO listeners can get 10% off their registration with the code ARRESTEDDEVOPS

Matt was joined by guest co-host Julian Dunn, as well as some awesome panelists for an on-site recording of ADO at the very first DevOpsDays Minneapolis!

Jez Humble discusses Continuous Delivery in DevOps, emphasizing benefits, testing, and architecture decisions. Talks about decentralization, employee empowerment, and common anti-patterns. Also explores language evolution and balances risk aversion with impact. Tech updates and game release are covered in the final chapter.

Transcript What are some common misconceptions about what DevOps is? What are some symptoms of "DevOps Smell"[1]? Development Operations vs Dev + Ops Is it really just about culture? Can the opinions of a tool help drive the culture? This is a theory Matt is marinating upon, and might be totally wrong. How can we avoid the "echo chamber" of DevOps discussion?
