Standing on a stage with my arms out while speaking, I’m wearing a head piece and a clicker in one hand. I have an oversized purple jacket on over a dark blue vest and green pants. My curly hair has been swept back from my gesturing and looks slightly disheveled

No matter what I always end up looking like a slightly unhinged evangelist.

Thank you @cnsmunich.bsky.social for the opportunity to speak about platforms!

Oh dear, I’ll be exposed for my support for Palestine and not liking men harassing me at conferences. We’re ruined Lucca, ruined!
I can’t think of any place that’s without people who disagree, at the end we’re for solidarity and community not an expectation that we all have the exact same opinions

love when an anonymous sock puppet account orchestrates a hit job on an indigenous trans person under a handle referring to a philosophical concept of "disclosure" popularized by nazi philosopher martin heidegger...

I’ve read the Cosmere books, caught up on murderbot and now I need to find a new series to consume as I continue to avoid reading all my engineering books.

I’m a little surprised at how small the tooling ecosystem is for monorepos, I did a little digging a couple weeks back and most assume it’s purely frontend or an adapter driven monolith.

It’s entirely possible you are ending up with gaps or the pressure from the cooler isn’t consistent. There’s so many factors it tends to feel more effective to burn some sage and chant a prayer to the gods.

I’ve never had to reapply thermal paste unless I was changing heatsinks/cpu. It’s a conductor so as long as it’s there it’ll do the job.

If things cool down significantly when you leave the case open then you need better fans. You can always do some low tech ducting with cardboard to help

They’ll shoehorn in a character who grows up in the nazi regime that shows how everything they do really makes sense if you think about it.

Our first in a series of newsletters has gone out to our subscribers!

It's a slow ramp-up of information about what we've been up to, some infrastructure changes we've made, and also what folks can expect from subsequent newsletters (which will be a lot more frequent leading up to launch, date TBD)

Retro PC case flaunts floppy disk-style bay cover β€” Silverstone FLP01 will sell for around $130 Availability is scheduled for later this quarter, priced at roughly $130.

I’m only a little tempted to get this and dye it a lovely color so I can pretend to be in the control center of a Japanese sci-fi anime.

I trying a split leash for my dogs that has an elastic end and so far they’re spending more time running into and and tripping each other or freezing up as they run in opposite directions than actual walking.

I really wanted the novelties for my keycap set but they were sold out everywhere in Europe except UK so I of course had more reason to visit a friend in london so I could ship them to him.

So it may not be the fault of the team but I still see it as a sign of how the organization is not doing well post Salesforce

I don’t know the size of heroku but every place I’ve worked with an established SRE processes or security team is constantly combing through high visibility issues that might highlight an internal risk (or pay a vendor to do it).

I do think you’re both right here but Will is ignoring the high visibility of this incident and how it is analyzed. We’d expect an org that focuses on reliability to look at incidents and assess if they can learn from it, especially when uptime is a critical indicator of reliability to customers.
