I learned A LOT on the #dvoc25. AI tech felt omnipresent, it was the topic in many of the sessions.My favorites were about good devOps practices, the tools used for CD/CI, observability and compliance. I also learned many Shell tricks. Special thanks to @oztiram for the private workshop. See you next year!

„From AI workbench to factory line“ session by Govinda at #DVOC25.

The maturing MCP landscape impacts AI tooling over the whole software lifecycle, from requirements over outer and inner development loops to operations.

Mr. CDOS: An AI agent retrieving knowledge from clones of ~150 inter-company community repos via shell grep/find

Today‘s first #DVOC25 session by Benny from #TeamBank

* creating the actual OpenAI agent in Azure is one line of Python
* storage i/o speed is key, don’t use regular mounts
* non-shallow repo clones enable breaking change detection
* make the agent‘s output as extensive as possible, and feed it into your copilot
* explicitly instruct your copilot to follow the agent’s output closely

I'm at the devops camp 25. The sessions have not been presented yet, but I only need to look at the food menu to know this is going to become a fix date in my calendar. Are you around? Drop me a line ^_^ #DVOC25

Looking forward to an inspiring mix of sessions at the DevOps-Camp in Nuremberg today: https://dvoc.io/app

I learned a lot and made some new friends at #seneca in Erlangen this weekend. My favorite sessions were about JJ, .devContainers, spec-kit && guided LLM coding, generative music and the tragic state of the IT freelancing industry. Thanks to the orga! #seneca25
Full house at todays Software Engineering Camp in Erlangen #SENECA25 😎

Book recommendations from the Culture Clash session at SENECA:

R. D. Lewis: When cultures collide
featuring communication strategies for intercultural discussions

E. Meyer: The culture map
featuring comparisons of cultures along different dimensions

First session: „Vibe coding“ with Cursor applied to the barcamp’s session board.

Task: Let admins change the display order of rooms.

The AI‘s initial approach neglected how upfront refactoring would lead to decreased code complexity. Applying knowledge of the code-base to refine our small prompt quickly led to better results. We had to fix compiler, 404 and db errors, though.

Feels like a lead-up to the TDD-driven AI coding session later this day. :)
