#hiring update:

Vážení,
pořád sháním 2 devopsáky:

1. anglicky hovořící seniorního Devopsáka na pozici "Azure Architect" na full #remote klientský projekt.
Azure DevOps jako takový tam není, mají Gitlab CICD.
ASAP, of course :)

2. seniorní "Devops a Infra Specialist" do interního týmu, hybrid #Praha, leadership skills vítány.
Je to DevOps role rozkročená mezi team leaderem, kontzultantem a cloud architektem.
Chceme vybrat dobře, ne rychle.

The two *leaders* spoke by phone Tues morning & discussed the need for "a lasting peace agreement" as well as " improved bilateral relations between the #UnitedStates & #Russia," acc/to a White House stmnt.
"The leaders agreed that the movement to peace will begin with an #energy & #infrastructure #ceasefire, as well as technical negotiations on implementation of a maritime ceasefire in the #BlackSea, full ceasefire & permanent peace. These negotiations will begin immediately in the #MiddleEast”

Further bad news for the environment, possibly if the recycling of the toxic batteries can be dominated.

Also, bad news for #Tesla and the #HumanWreckingBall, #ElonMusk, who's having the week he deserves and should be having every week. Cheers!

This is a beautiful time lapse. Kind of makes me miss doing work inside a data center. 😊

The plan for his #DOGE was mapped out in a series of closely held meetings in Palm Beach, FL, & through early #intelligence-gathering efforts in Washington.

Without ceding control of his companies, the richest man in the world has embedded his engineers & aides inside the government’s critical #digital #infrastructure, moving with a swiftness that has stunned #CivilServants.

Inaccessible cycling racks were the last straw that catalyzed the formation of UC Access Now.

It was very difficult getting non-disabled anti-ableists who cycled to use our campaign tool to press UC decisionmakers about the issue!

These cycle racks were installed without consultation with us, but in response to our hard-fought campaign.

We told abled cyclists all along that accessible racks benefit you too! Most rack designs & installations throughout UC do not take upright bikes with trailers, bakfiets, cargo bikes, trikes, etc into consideration at all.

And this is an upright bike towing a trailer parked at the racks installed as a result of our activism. #UCAccessNow #CycleParkingAudit #Infrastructure #Ableism @fedibikes @disability

What are all the kool kids using for infrastructure automation these days? Ansible, puppet, terraform, something else?

Only really interested in foss/floss solutions. The less 'corporate' the better.

I'm looking for work!

I'm a high-level infra and devops engineer and team lead.

I've previously run my own team, and previously worked at Mozilla and Facebook.

I'm looking for infra/devops lead or senior infra/devops engineer positions.

I'm not looking for pure development positions, but writing scripts, glue, and things like CI - as demanded by infra/devops - are totally fine. I just don't want to be developing the product.

The one thing I can't budge on is that I am exclusively looking for 100% remote positions, due to physical disability.

My CV is available at cv.dave.io. I am available to start immediately.

The CV is a Notion page and can be cloned directly into your workspace if you use Notion.

I'm more than happy to answer any questions, and all leads are graciously appreciated. Drop me a public or private mention, or use the other contact details listed on my CV.

That's about it. You are very welcome to boost this post, with my thanks.

#China’s #DeepSeek #AI app sends US #tech stocks reeling

The tech-heavy #Nasdaq lost nearly 4% in early trading Mon, several tech companies that banked on a surge of AI interest sold off, w/ US chipmaker #Nvidia down >12% as trading got underway.

Analysts said the sell-off underscores anxieties about whether the massive spending on #ArtificialIntelligence ― & the specialized chips, #DataCenters & related #power #infrastructure ― are justified.

#Musk is casting doubt on the first major #tech investment announcement made by Trump, openly questioning the admin he serves.

On Tues, Trump announced a joint venture between #OpenAI, #SoftBank & #Oracle to create billions in #computing #infrastructure to power #ArtificialIntelligence, some of which is already underway.
