If you're referring to me, I'm happy being called Jamie, Jamie Tanna, jamietanna, and that you
respect my pronouns:
he/him/his.
I'm currently a Senior Developer and Open Source project maintainer (of Renovate) at Mend.
I currently live in Nottingham with my partner Anna Dodson and our cat Morph and our dog Cookie.
I use my site as a method of blogging about my learnings, as well as sharing information about projects I have
previously, or am currently, working on in my spare time.
I'm a GNU/Linux user, a big advocate for the Free Software Movement, and the IndieWeb movement and I try to self host my own services where possible,
instead of relying on other providers.
I have ADHD (Inattentive Type) and am learning how to make my life work better around it.
Due to the many social media platforms and different ways to connect, I've captured all my contact information on
my /elsewhere page. Alternatively, you can drop me an email at hi@jamietanna.co.uk.
I also have a /now page which aims to cover some more up-to-date "what I'm up to"
information.
Your regular reminder that shitting on OSS on social media is a selfish thing to do. Good job sapping volunteer maintainersâ motivation in exchange for your âinternet pointsâ. Next time: try rolling up your sleeves and contribute a fix to the problem youâve identified.

Starting with v8.0.0, Astral switched setup-uv to immutable releases with no floating v8 tags. This is good for security.
But unfortunately #Dependabot and #Renovate couldn't upgrade from v7 to v8.0.0, and need a manual bump to get back on track. This is not so good for security.
I posted about this on the three social networks, someone tagged @www.jvt.me@www.jvt.me and soon after Renovate now supports this! đ
Here's his writeup into the world of #GitHubActions tags:

Open-weight models are AI systems whose trained parameters are publicly released, which allows developers to run, fine-tune, and deploy them independently rather than accessing them only through a hosted API. While closed-weight models from companies like OpenAI or Anthropic are delivered as managed services, open-weight models give organizations direct control over how the models are

Josh welcomes back David Bernstein to talk about creating a disaster recover plan. It's a very timely topic given all the current events. There are more supply chain attacks and compromises than ever before. There are some great resources for this planning, but as David tells us, it's really not that hard to put some plans together. It's easy to over-plan, David gives some great tips on getting started with our planning for an eventual incident.
