Seems to be massive disconnect between the #AI hype pushed in the #KubeCon key notes vs. what the audience actually cares about. I don’t think I ever heard this many people complaining about them in the past.
This content type is full of IndieWeb post types, which are all content types which allow me to take greater ownership of my own data. These are likely unrelated to my blog posts. You can find a better breakdown by actual post kind below:

I love RSS, but one thing I don't like is that readers typically homogenize the appearance of posts from different sources, which is fine that's how aggregators work. But I miss seeing the flair of individual websites so I often find myself clicking thru entries to see their site designs. I kind of want a stylesheet element in the RSS feeds and feed readers could have a toggle where you can view each feed's entries with their custom styles. I understand how that could break things though.

Very excited to be speaking at the @TheLeadDev webinar Does your org need platform engineering? in a few weeks! Hope to share some of my experiences with #PlatformEngineering and #DeveloperExperience

I’m a strong believer in automated tests - and a moderately disciplined author of them. Software engineering is exceptionally hard to get functionally correct, and even harder to avoid regressing later. As my wise teammate Dave says, “Legacy code is any code that doesn’t have a test.”
Exciting times as we hike the W, and visit Torres del Paine.
Management's role isn't necessarily to break unions but to keep workers compliant with company objectives. If the company is open to a union, they'll only impede it (and keep lower management out of the loop) so much so to make it a burden for workers to manage. If they're more offensive, they'll do what Apple, Trader Joe's, GM, Microsoft, Walmart and other conventional businesses do: take a complete about-face from whatever purported values the company is about and use their own legal prowess to weaken the constitutional rights workers have (it's only a crime if you're tried and sentenced when it comes to companies weakening unions).

I'm sorry I referred to my jizz as 'streaming content'
Ran past a man walking 3 pugs today. As I overtook, the pugs thought I was racing them and ran after me, which made me think I was being chased by angry pugs. It was an arms race in which everyone involved was stupid
Attached: 1 image Ok I’m doin the thread I said I wanted to do last week. (feel free to mute unless you enjoy a little second-hand drama as a Monday morning treat) Attn #devrel people! Are you job hunting? Does this pic of search results look familiar? Have you ever seen a bunch of job postings like this from Canonical and thought “gee I should apply to one of these”? I’m here to tell you: IT’S A TRAP! 🧵
Hot take: if I can say "they just tested positive" and you don't have to ask "for what?" then the pandemic isn't over.

The greatest lie ever told in work: “I just have a quick question”
So I think go get -u ./...
should get you most of the way? I'd usually reach for Renovate and would create a config file that allows grouping all the dependencies in a single branch, then you can check tests etc pass before merging. But you can also apply those changes purely locally - am travelling today but can shoot over an example tomorrow?

Not Lukáš, but wondering what the use case is? Are you looking to get a way to easily bump dependencies? Trying to work out where you may be able to go mod tidy
down duplicates/unnecessary deps?
How it often works is DevEx & Marketing push out some half-baked thing as a free service driving to drive adoption and generate interest. Generally there aren't many Engineering or Ops resources assigned to these things. Monitoring is next to nothing. No one even thought to consider fraud prevention measures. Many times InfoSec isn't informed at all. When a free service that allows arbitrary hosting, or arbitrary email/SMS content goes out, the first ones to adopt it are often criminals. The end result is you're playing catch-up for months to years to get the proper level of resourcing dedicated to closing the exploitable holes. No one wants to do that for a product that isn't directly generating revenue. The thing is, if you can't afford to assign resources, you should never deploy it. If it's connected to the Internet and connected to your brand, you're going to suffer reputation loss when it's abused, and it WILL be abused. Once I got a free service (temporarily) shut down because I showed our CMO how many complaints we were getting about it from people targeted by abuse. You'll have a hard time convincing random PMs or DevEx folks to limit the project they're working on for their quarterly goals/promotion opportunity. Marketing and Legal leaders will definitely care about reputation damage if you can make a strong, evidence-backed case.
Attached: 1 image My wife sent me this screenshot today from her Facebook feed. It depicts a "remember 17 years ago" flashback featuring a friend of hers. The "then" image shows his face while the "now" side is blank... Because he died a decade ago. "Technically Wrong" came out in 2017, filled with numerous accounts of similar situations. This isn't new, but tech giants still continue to roll out this kind of half baked crap with no care for how it might impact the people using their products.

@www.jvt.me@www.jvt.me I described that in my thread? blocks of contrasting colours to break up the flat plain. not just white text on a very dark background
beware that MDN is also a text on plain flat background criminal
What should they be doing instead?
I have a picture of @Quinnypig@awscommunity.social giving bedroom eyes and it is too powerful to release to the masses
My parents cut part of my dick off when I was a baby and now I tuck it between my legs voluntarily to wear certain pants and that’s a HUGE issue for them. Very normal

Thank you!
I’ve been through close to a dozen reorgs. This article contains the advice I wish I’d been given earlier in my career when I didn’t yet have that experience. Reorgs are disruptive, and nobody really tells you what to do in the wake of one. It’s easy to feel adrift, scared for your future, and uncertain about how to behave. Some of that fear is warranted: your job security probably goes down in the months following a reorg. But confusion and chaos aren’t necessarily signs that the reorg will go poorly, and there are things you can do to help give you and your team a better chance of emerging successfully.

Thanks Andy!
Hahaha thanks very much 🥰
No #WeekNotes tonight as I'm celebrating my 30th birthday in Rome 🎂🥂🍝🍷
If you wanted to do something nice to honour it, you could support my work on the Open Source projects I maintain as well as the content on my blog. But I'd also love to see y'all pay it forward to other creators or maintainers for the stuff you use, and work with your companies to pay to support the Open Source you so heavily rely on!
I'll be posting my Week Notes some time next week, when I get to relive the lovely ~10 days we've been having 🥰
you can replace all the syllables in Timothee Chalamet with different ones and you still know exactly who i'm talking about. Watch this: Fidgety Chevrolet Jiminy Creme-Brulee Lemony Lingerie
