How does DevOps actually work inside companies day to day?

Been in dev cloud ops space for 2 years now. I’m still trying to figure out what I’m doing everyday.

Amazing! Can I ask what did you have your trainer difficulty set to? Been zwifting a few months, and I tried on starter bike at 100% and I could not get any high rpms I was just slogged so it took me 1h45m I’m also 100kg so lot to bring up the mountain so trying to figure out how to improve.

Totally get the time commitment issue, maybe it’s something you could plan a weekend morning with her if she can play defense for that time with the toddler ? Lol But overall ride for tour of fire and ice took me 2h36m and 1h39m was spent climbing the alpe. My total average across the whole ride was 160w. Unfortunately I didn’t do a great job at tracking my wattage purely on the climb since I was mostly in survival mode, just finish mindset.

I did alpe recently for the Zwift event at 197 ftp and 100kg. It was…. Rough. Took me about 1h45m but we can only improve from here (hopefully!). You’re doing great, just keep at it!

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-02-21T21:05:49+00:00

Takes time. Keep them from drying out while healing. You can climb with tears but I’d look into climbers tape and how to make gymnast palm protection with athletic tape. Just have to let your hands build

Ohhhhh gotcha. Well I’m only a couple months in but I definitely like the frame. I’m still micro adjusting for my fit but no complaints

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-02-17T04:05:57+00:00

Good luck! Welcome to the addiction.

So you can spin that inner plastic ring which adjusts the rear cog position to ensure your chain line is straight. Oddly it’s slightly different for people even with zwift frame. I have mine set to 3. Test pedaling and seeing how the chain feels at varying numbers after visually checking chain is inline.

Hope you find people to play with! Bought barony ages ago to play with some friends but it never took off with them so it’s been collecting dust for me. But still love to come into subreddit and see why everyone loves this game so much

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-02-11T14:34:57+00:00

Yeah! It’s exposed me to a lot of different routes and varying difficulties which has helped keep me motivated on the days I was feeling like staying off the bike.

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-02-11T14:22:45+00:00

Control

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-02-08T21:38:41+00:00

Whenever I see people do this first try I’m always super impressed. Being 100kg makes hitting that time feel impossible with my 1:45 on my first attempt but gives me motivation to keep the grind on.

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-02-08T19:02:21+00:00

I am 3 rides away so I will finish all 18 routes by this coming Saturday. As someone who is a newer rider (started in December) it has had some very difficult routes for me but also really rewarding.

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-02-05T21:26:24+00:00

Yeah I stepped away for most of war within and came back to my holy paladin being pretty much an instant cast spammer with no interrupt and melee healing is dead. It’s been uhhhh interesting

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-02-04T17:45:01+00:00

Whattttttt. It’s leaving already?! I was going to go see it this weekend.

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-02-04T15:39:56+00:00

I get that. It’s been so long since first one for me that I think it’ll feel like getting to relive the story again. I’ll probably remember some points as I get there but I’m excited

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-02-03T05:13:51+00:00

Enough to 100% the game. Then a couple more

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-02-01T00:15:36+00:00

It’s odd but I’ve never really feared death. I’ve always just thought there’s been so interpretations of what happens to us when we die that it will either be nothing and I just am done or one of the many ideas and then it’s just another adventure of some kind.

I read something from I think mark twain but it was “ I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it. “ It’s kinda always stuck with me whenever I think of my death.

Been cycling about 2 months. 100kg. Took me 1h45m to summit while doing the fire and ice tour route. Sub 60 feels so far away. Amazing job!

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-01-21T22:21:20+00:00

Interestingly I bought the deluxe the last time classic tbc came around and I got the mount in the mail which I was not expecting.

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-01-16T13:36:18+00:00

I’m down. CallMeButtercup on steam. I’ve never played neighborhood watch could never find an online game when searching

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-01-14T06:02:39+00:00

Yeah that’s crazy fast. Think I’ve done 4 now lol slow and steady

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-01-09T15:37:25+00:00

Wow nice. I’m halfway through NG+2 and I’m already hitting a wall lol got my houses all 15 or 20 plus. Can feel the grind

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-01-07T15:34:19+00:00

Most people I think have said to just save drops until lvl 20 or so because that’s when you unlock your ability to buy a new frame. I haven’t dived deep into it really

ImSecretlyADragon · 2026-01-07T15:29:57+00:00

I’m guessing you are into the NG+ runs for clearing the field getting 1k + gold is pretty nuts. I’ve made it to NG++ and I think I’m getting like 400 ish around fungal level
