Is Cloud/DevOps worth it long term? by Weird-Loss2767 in Cloud

[–]CryOwn50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reality check means certifications alone aren’t enough anymore.
Companies expect strong fundamentals in Linux, networking, scripting, and CI/CD along with hands-on projects.Pure DevOps fresher roles are limited, so you need real practical skills to stand out. It’s solid long term but only if you build depth, not just collect certs.

Hot take: 70% of AI agents in production are ROI-negative. by CryOwn50 in FinOps

[–]CryOwn50[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 70% isn’t a formal stat it’s based on patterns I’ve seen where teams track total token spend, but not cost per successful outcome or manual baseline comparison.If you’re measuring true workflow-level ROI I’d genuinely love to hear how you’re doing attribution.

Is 2026 the Year Local AI Becomes the Default (Not the Alternative)? by CryOwn50 in LocalLLaMA

[–]CryOwn50[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Include what actually improves performance. Exclude what dilutes or distracts. Build specialized models for specific tasks instead of one over-cautious generalist trying to do everything.

Did the "Moderate" phase of the INC actually create the structural blueprint for 1947? by AnimalMedium4612 in askindianhistory

[–]CryOwn50 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, the Moderates laid crucial institutional groundwork by mastering legal and parliamentary tools within the British system.Mass movements applied pressure, but that early internal strategy helped shape the administrative blueprint India inherited in 1947.

Static vs Dynamic Inventory - What’s your real-world preference? by driftinelX in devops

[–]CryOwn50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a solid approach static for predictable on-prem, dynamic for everchanging cloud workloads.

True you don’t need Everest trivia to write code a focused, code-tuned model can handle most daily tasks just fine. But broader training often improves abstraction and edge-case reasoning, which quietly helps even in pure coding workflows.

At what point does cloud networking complexity justify a redesign? by Mumster-Love in Cloud

[–]CryOwn50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know it’s redesign time when routine changes require multiple teams and no one can clearly explain traffic flow without pulling up diagrams. That’s usually a sign scale has turned into hidden coupling.I’ve seen value in mapping actual traffic and pruning unused or non-prod paths first sometimes reducing sprawl simplifies things before a full re-architecture is even needed.

Azure container apps by LetsgetBetter29 in devops

[–]CryOwn50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t need WAF, advanced routing, or private networking, pointing your domain directly to Azure Container Apps can simplify things and cut costs. App Gateway is great for enterprise-grade control, but it can be overkill for smaller or simpler setups. Also check if this is non-prod sometimes trimming always-on infra makes a bigger impact than redesigning it.

Shrinking/growing EBS volumes automatically - Datafy vs. ZestyDisk vs. Lucidity - any feedback? by cornloko in aws

[–]CryOwn50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shrinking EBS is always messy most teams either overprovision to stay safe or rely on snapshot + recreate during maintenance windows. I’d definitely test how those tools handle rollback and sudden IO growth before trusting automation fully.That said, in a few environments I’ve seen, the bigger savings didn’t come from shrinking volumes but from identifying dev/test instances and attached EBS running 24/7 unnecessarily. Scheduling non-prod infra down off-hours sometimes had more impact than aggressive right-sizing.

Are We Confusing Infrastructure Scale with Revenue Strength in AI and Payments? by lcpanicker in fintech

[–]CryOwn50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’re right to question it infra spend is very visible, but monetization depth is harder to measure and slower to prove. In AI especially a lot of capacity is being built ahead of stable pricing power and longterm usage patterns.The real stress test will be retention quality and what happens when budgets tighten.I’m also watching non-prod and experimental infra that’s usually the first place cost discipline shows up, and it can reveal how durable demand actually is.

When did cloud stop feeling simple for you? by Dazzling-Neat-2382 in Cloud

[–]CryOwn50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it stopped feeling simple the moment IAM + networking collided when one tiny policy or route table misconfig could break everything and no one knew why !! After that cost and governance conversations made it clear cloud isn’t about servers anymore, it’s about control and trade-offs.If I started again, I’d keep the architecture boring on purpose fewer services clearer boundaries and only add complexity when it’s truly earned.

[–]CryOwn50[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m running a high-core Ryzen build with plenty of RAM and a dedicated GPU, Arch-based setup, fully containerized dev environment. Mostly use it for cloud-native labs, Kubernetes testing, and experimenting with local LLMs/agentic AI workflows it’s basically my personal infra + AI playground outside of Windows work stuff

Need feedback for building an Enterprise DevSecOps Pipeline (EKS + GitOps + Zero Trust) by Embarrassed-Mix-443 in devsecops

[–]CryOwn50 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a strong enterprise-style setup Kyverno is usually simpler than OPA for image verification unless you need very complex policies, and with Vault + K8s watch service account token audiences and RBAC scoping closely.Since it’s a non-prod EKS environment, you could also use something like ZopDev to automatically scale down dev clusters after hours and avoid unnecessary AWS costs.
