I transitioned to a domain that was outside my comfort zone. Specifically, I was just pure software dev, bored like you. Thought I’d dive into this new IaC thing my peers are working on, and down the rabbit hole I went all the way to the nitty gritty of Ops.

It was and continues to be fascinating even in my current mid-40s because there’s so much common-sense software development practices that are applicable but missing in Ops and I like the interaction between the two fields.
