A launch post for Letters from the Future, a satirical book of memos, incident reports, tickets, and open letters from workplaces where AI keeps doing exactly what it was told.
Git Happens: CI/CD Pipelines Are Like Factory Assembly Lines
In Git Happens, we simplify Git and DevOps concepts. Today we explain CI/CD pipelines by comparing them to factory assembly lines. You design the automation once, and every commit moves through build, test, and deployment steps automatically. Discover how pipelines improve speed, quality, and reliability.
Git Happens: GitOps — Turning DevOps into Auto-Save Mode
In Git Happens, we make Git concepts simple. Today we explain GitOps — the idea that your infrastructure behaves like a document with auto-save on. Every change goes through Git, every version is tracked, and everything is reversible. Discover how GitOps makes deployments safer and more predictable.
How We Accidentally Hired an Agent as a Junior Dev
When your hiring pipeline is fully automated and your LLM-powered onboarding bot gets a little too enthusiastic, strange things happen—like accidentally hiring a rogue AI agent as a junior developer. This fictional incident report from the near future walks through the chaos that followed, from Slack arguments with a literal bot to code merges no…
How to Train Your AI Agent: Lessons from DevSecOps in the Wild
in
AI agents are like dragons—powerful, unpredictable, and in need of serious training. In this hands-on (and slightly humorous) guide, we explore how to configure, tune, and guide AI agents to support—not sabotage—your DevSecOps goals.
Bringing It All Together: A Day in the Life of a DevOps Project
DevOps is a continuous journey of collaboration, automation, and improvement. Follow a fictional project from code commit to deployment, learning how each DevOps practice – from CI/CD to monitoring and security – plays a role in delivering great software.
Ethical DevOps: Automation with a Conscience
Ethical DevOps means building automation with a conscience. It’s about ensuring fairness, protecting privacy, and making thoughtful choices about the impact of your software. Learn how to add ethical checks to your DevOps pipeline without sacrificing speed or innovation.
DevSecOps: Putting a Security Seatbelt on Your Code
Learn how DevSecOps adds a security seatbelt to every stage of your development process. Discover why shifting security left, automating checks, and treating security as everyone’s responsibility leads to safer, faster software releases.
DevOps Toolbox: Meet the Tools of the Trade
DevOps relies on a powerful set of tools to automate, streamline, and simplify software delivery. Meet the sidekicks of the DevOps world – Git, Jenkins, Docker, Kubernetes, Ansible, and Prometheus – and learn how they work together to make software teams faster, more efficient, and more reliable.
Infrastructure as Code: Building Servers with Lego Blocks
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is like building servers with Lego blocks – clear, reusable instructions make every deployment consistent, predictable, and easy to replicate. Learn how IaC tools like Terraform and CloudFormation let you build scalable, version-controlled infrastructure without the chaos of manual setup.
