There are less and less touching servers directly happening. Not only DevOps but the current raise of k8s and serverless deployments making it less relevant. There is also the security aspect of it.
The downside is that people (especially the ones who are just joining the workforce) are less efficient with the command line and more dependant on GUI. For example some of the junior devs do not know git cli anymore and rely on the VSCode plugin to interact with git. This becomes an issue when there is a bug in the plugin and you should use the CLI.
- pjmlp 4y agoThat is easy to sort out, like every git problem, clone the repo and start again. I know SCM tooling since the RCS days, and couldn't be bothered to master git implementation details to fix broken repos. Unfortunely we are stuck with git for the time being.
- datadeft 4y agoI agree with you based the amount of time someone needs to spend to fix a broken repo. I just really like to understand the tools that I use. Maybe it is a waste of time.
- spion 4y agoYes, we're shelling into k8s containers now
- baq 4y agoOr worse, when what you think is a big actually is a feature. I basically use vscode git only for staging and merging and sometimes not even that, when it has issues with hunks on the beginning of the file or whatever.
