Brace yourselves for a journey into the realm of misguided counsel, as we explore 15 terrible pieces of DevOps advice that you should unequivocally avoid.
🚫 PR Dominance Delusion
Show your DevOps prowess by micromanaging pull requests. Request endless tweaks and changes, regardless of their impact. After all, why focus on collaboration when you can rule over requests with an iron fist?
📭 Empty Commit Mystification
Who needs clear commit messages? Opt for empty commits to leave colleagues scratching their heads. Adding a touch of mystique to your code changes is the key to keeping everyone on their toes.
🔮 Magic Metrics Misdirection
Embrace the mystical world of magic metrics, leaving your team bewildered by the cryptic values you embed within your systems. Watch them struggle to decipher the hidden insights that only you can see.
↩️ Return Riddle Maze
Turn your code into an intricate labyrinth by scattering return statements without rhyme or reason. Sit back and enjoy as your fellow DevOps explorers navigate the confusing landscape of function exits.
🧪 TypeScript Taboo
Shun-type safety and embrace the chaos of ‘any’ type. Who needs well-defined structures when you can venture into the unpredictable world of untyped variables? It’s DevOps, after all — live dangerously!
🔄 Equality Enigma: The ‘==’ Dilemma
Forego strict comparisons and opt for the ambiguity of ‘==’ instead of ‘===’ in your DevOps scripts. Because sometimes, it’s just more exciting not to be entirely sure what you’re comparing.
📝 Cryptic Configuration Comments
Confound your colleagues with cryptic comments that provide no real insight into your configuration files. Let them marvel at your ability to inject confusion even into the simplest of setups.
🧵 Shared State Snarl
Pass shared state through an intricate web of components, creating a tapestry of confusion. Why have clear data flow when you can have an enigmatic network of dependencies?
🌍 Global Chaos State
Embrace global state turmoil, transforming your applications into an arena of unexpected changes and unforeseeable consequences. DevOps is all about surprises, right?
🏛️ Epic Monolithic DevOps
Embrace monolithic practices and bundle everything together. Who needs compartmentalization and efficiency when you can have a tangled mess of intertwined services and processes?
🚫 Anti-Linter Revolution
Rebel against the linter’s quest for consistency. Embrace chaos and errors, for they are the heart and soul of true DevOps innovation. After all, rules were meant to be broken.
🧩 Configuration Complexity Conundrum
Inject complexity into your configuration management, ensuring that no one can decipher the purpose of your setup. After all, who needs clarity when you can have an enigmatic puzzle?
🧪 Test Tumult
Craft tests that are as unpredictable as they are unreliable. Let your testing suite be a playground of surprises, reflecting the unpredictable nature of the DevOps universe.
🙈 Trust the Unknown: Chaos as Companion
Throw caution to the wind and trust every component, every process, every variable. Embrace the chaos and watch your DevOps environment become a symphony of unpredictability.
