Hi beautiful people,
I had the last week off and went on some amazing hikes with my Labrador Arkady aka Munchy Munch. Have a look at the photo below✨
This week, I am back with lots of awesome content by even more amazing people. We are covering new events, career development opportunities, interesting Kubernetes-related projects, and much much more.
Enjoy ✨

Women in Tech highlight of the week 🔦
More men in tech than women "not because they did not have the tech skills but because they were pushed out"

Show this to anyone who still thinks women "cannot be technical" https://t.co/ecLGb7Mnvy

My Content
I receive lots of questions about my career path, being a Developer Advocate, building a career and much more. Join me at this online meetup next Monday at 5 PM UTC for an overview of my career path, the challenges how I overcame them – we will also have lots of time for Q&A.
The meetup page to sign-up: https://www.meetup.com/youngdevops/events/295281621/
Also, if you have not seen this long tutorial I created two weeks ago on Docker, KinD, kubectl, Helm, Prometheus, Grafana, have a look.
Something interesting I came across on Twitter 💡
I recently discovered https://t.co/3reTieziop and my initial reaction was a groan, but I am growing to appreciate that defining Kubernetes resources in a language of your choice rather than Helm is pretty nice. I never bought into Pulumi but somehow I see direct utility here.
