$1 million budget: 90% test coverage, comprehensive DevOps pipeline, all work rooted in user research, delivery every two weeks, all code in an open repo. $300 million budget: No tests, no CI/CD, no user research, delivery on an annual cadence, code is a secret because it's a trash fire.

I've been at the OSS Growing Pains workshop focused on governance these last couple of days, and I've never felt more confident that I'm in the right place. I'll be unpacking and riding on this experience for a while! Deeply grateful to @shauna@social.coop for the invite, and to have spent time with amazing humans like @HeatherLeson@fosstodon.org, @silona@fosstodon.org, and @ntnsndr@social.coop ✨

Kyle Quest joins the show to tell Autumn & Justin all about the evolution of DockerSlim & minimal container images. Why are small container images important? What are different strategies to make containers smaller? Let’s find out!
Remember folks. When VC is funding Corporation that releases a Open Source project its only a matter of time until they take it back. Their goal is to get their product embedded into your organization and abuse you for free work in the hopes they can eventually sell their corporation and cash out. Its always good for them, and rarely good for you.
Ooh very cool! We've got [this wobbler bowl(https://www.petsandfriends.co.uk/products/lickimat-wobble-green-dog-treat-bowl-16cm) that our (2 year old) doggo uses and that slows her down a bit, but have found the K9Connectables have been the best for slowing down food - but screw top on the Wobbl looks very good!

For fun I recently pimped out a ruby script that I had written for some testing with a little color and a spinner. If you have never used ANSI escape codes before I've put together a simple script that shows how easy it is. First let me say that if you are using ruby and

There's been a thread about dependencies lately and the challenge of convincing developers to look at the full dependency chain. I once maintained a C++ binary that included a PostScript interpreter, a JPEG decoder, a JavaScript interpreter, and a number of other utterly irrelevant pieces causing a huge factor increase in the size of the binary. The culprit: A single logging statement that invoked a general-purpose printer that could print web stuff. Switching to sprintf fixed it.

Thought for the day: Billionaires are a symptom of poverty. (Paraphrasing Iain Banks on money, but more specific to our times because we still need some way to allocate scarce resources, just: not like that.)
"Billionaires are a symptom of poverty." Every once in a while I'm reminded that my "wasting time" on this site is not wasting time, because it's how I can incredible ideas or articulations like this.

This week on The Business of Open Source I talked to Heather Meeker, General Partner of OSS Capital and author of From Project to Profit, How to Build a Business around your Open Source Project. We talked about some things that I entirely agree with, and then there were some points I challenged...
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.

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.

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).
