At first "glance", if you're looking to get into DevOps, then a deployment engineer should be a good match. I suppose it depends on the company and what they really want vs the job req description. As a Release Engineer, you would need to have (or get on the job) skills with CI/CD pipelines (build/release), branch management and release merging/tagging, and so on. Again, it depends what the company is really doing or wanting from that role.

I enjoy Nick Chapsas videos as @[email protected] mentions. Other videos that pop up end up being "day in the life" type stuff rather than instructional/information content.

You could do a series and post it to the [email protected] community. Or are you looking to have a separate community specifically focused on learning and such that isn't mixed in with all the other c# topics and discussions?

I like option 1 and option 2. Option 2 seems easier to differentiate, as others have mentioned.

I can certainly test this. My question would then be, will this result in actually mapping a null in the dto, or would the .ExampleProperty? just "be null" and cause the long property to instantiate to 0?

So.. When I change...

.ForMember(ee => ee.ExampleId, options => options.MapFrom(ed => ed.ExampleProperty != null ? ed.ExampleProperty.ExampleId : (long?)null))

TO:

.ForMember(ee => ee.ExampleId, options => options.MapFrom(ed => ed.ExampleProperty?.ExampleId))

I am presented with: CS8072 - An expression tree lambda may not contain a null propagating operator.
