It's also the day for my favorite meme! If this aging Klingon warrior can get it right, so can anyone.

If you’re still masking…thank you If you’re trying to educate others on the benefits of masks…thank you If you’re standing in solidarity with disabled & vulnerable people who’ve been cast aside for the last 5 years…thank you Its not easy being the lone masker in 2025, but we see & appreciate you

Neurodivergent Senior software engineers, how do you go about the interviews? Any advice you learned the hard way?

Attached: 1 image How does your calendar look on Wednesday? Join us for the online OpenUK digital meetup at lunchtime. I've pinned down two open source project maintainers from projects you might have heard of (Kubernetes and PHP) to get their open source stories and some advice that the rest of us can use! See you there https://www.meetup.com/openuk/events/306591774/?eventOrigin=home_next_event_you_are_hosting

AAAHHHHHHHHH BE NICE TO OPEN SOURCE MAINTAINERS OH MY GOD. SOME OF YOU ARE SO RUDE, WHO RAISED YOU

BATCH BUNCH #0003 is complete. A fun-filled, productive session comes to a close! This time, we welcomed an attendee all the way from London and, universally, marveled at 'felting' being done IRL by another attendee. Hobbies FTW. See you next time? 🖱️⌨️🌐😌☕️

Question for OSS maintainers: what’s the most audacious work a company has ever asked you to do for free? I’ve heard of some projects being asked to fill out security questionnaires for free, but I don’t have a firsthand account of that and it got me curious about what else projects have been asked

Every time I’m forced to see Trump’s or Musk’s face I deserve compensation.

can't overthink if u don’t think at all

As I sit home with a terrible cold, I can’t help but be pissed that we decided as a society that we’re just cool with getting sick. We applied technology to water-borne and food-borne illness, and you generally don’t get sick that way anymore. But airborne? Nah, let’s keep getting sick.

I can't find the right words for how disgusting this is [contains quote post or other embedded content]

They should invent a job that doesn’t burn you out

I hope the nuance that we all intended came across in this episode. It’s really tough to be critical of the things you love, but if you don’t speak up at some point, I think things just wind up getting worse and worse. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

i cant believe ChatGPT lost its job to AI

The remote work debate was funny because it forced the question "Is a job something valuable you do or is it a place you go to be watched like daycare" and the answer for a lot of them was yeah it's the daycare thing now come on inside recess is over

After further reflection, I also think big companies sponsoring open source projects should provide therapists for maintainers. I'm only half kidding [contains quote post or other embedded content]

DHH is a gigabrain fascist and everyone with any sense is long since tired of his shit. I hope the Rails community can wrestle it away from being that muppets fiefdom. https://ruby.social/@getajobmike/113868764027652350

Trans rights are human rights 🏳️‍⚧️

This is the only flag I’m flying today. For Janey. #Trumpisacunt Let’s make it trend.

My thoughts are with my American friends for today, and the next four years. Stay strong. 💪 💜

Attached: 1 image Was reminded of this image again today: "I don't wear 🏳️‍🌈 [queer pride] items to tell you who's in my bed. I wear them so the family across the street knows they are safe. So the couple in the restaurant know they aren't alone. So the boy who sees me notice him looking at dresses knows I won't judge. I wear because you make them hide." Ever since seeing this, I have been wearing progressive pride buttons on each of my jackets and coats (and a cap). #queer #lgbtqia

normalize wearing n95 masks not just to avoid illness but also because it is fucking freezing outside

Teams who give monkeys power tools and let them in the engine room, how do you prevent them from breaking your engine?

Best work advice I got: Keep good notes You won't remember what they said in that meeting You won't remember when they made that decision You won't remember what you did or when or why Write it out explicitly and make life a little easier on future-you
