Can I add DevOps projects from YouTube/Udemy tutorials to my resume?

Hey everyone, I’m applying for DevOps jobs, but I’m struggling with projects to add to my resume. I’ve worked as a SysAdmin before and have basic skills in Docker, CI/CD, and Python, but I need stronger projects to stand out.

Or would recruiters see through it and consider it weak? Anyone here tried this or has tips on building proper DevOps projects for a resume? Would appreciate any advice! submitted by /u/MyWifeisMyHoe

Lately, there's been a lot of fear-mongering about AI replacing programmers this year. The truth is, people like Sam Altman and others in this space need people to believe this narrative, so they start investing in and using AI, ultimately devaluing developers. It’s all marketing and the interests of big players. A similar example is how everyone was pushed onto cloud providers, making developers forget how to host a static site on a cheap $5 VPS. They're deliberately pushing the vibe coding trend. However, only those outside the IT industry will fall for this. Maybe for an average person, it

Looking for an OpenSource e-mail export tool

Hi everyone, I am looking for a free/opensource email tool to help me export my emails from my inbox.

Which is the best-selling desktop computer of all time?

Choose your answer and the correct choice will be revealed. The Commodore 64 took CES 1982 by storm, promising a system that was considerably more powerful than anything offered by competitors while costing only $595. This price reportedly shocked Atari employees visiting Commodore’s booth and was made possible by the company’s strategic vertical integration. Commodore had recently acquired MOS Technology’s semiconductor fabrication plants, significantly reducing production costs, with each Commodore 64 unit costing only about $135 to manufacture. The original Commodore 64 featured a 1 MHz CPU and 64 KB of RAM, specifications impressive for its time. The $595 price

A rant on Ghibli slop

I started writing this as a simple though, it quickly evolved into a rant of sort. These past week OpenAI released their new image generation model, indeed amazing stuff, it can create and reason about images in way that classic diffusion models really can’t. Quickly people started generating slop upon slop of Studio Ghibli styled images. All my socials where flooded with these images. Instagram was full of memes but Ghibli style basically adding no content to that. People were sharing their memories Ghibli style, again, adding no substance to those memories. LinkedIn was a completely different beast, every single
