VibeOps Forum

I was getting pretty tired and aggravated at all of the networking forums and discords and slack channels for being *so* anti-AI; can’t share ideas; can’t discuss AI / MCP / Agents; can’t bring Vibe Coding or VibeOps topics out in the open without being dogpiled by curmugeons and Luddite’s and ancient thinking. It was unbearable.

So I’ve decided to launch the VibeOps Forum

Wont You Be My Neighbour? ## The Network as a Conversation, Not a Configuration For decades, we’ve treated networks as things to be **configured**. We push commands, pull outputs, parse CLI text, and hope our automation scripts survive the next OS upgrade. **What if we’ve been thinking about this wrong?** What if networks aren’t meant […]
