Pursuant to out of compliance CNCF actions, I recommend this issue be resolved via PR to the CNCF Code of Conduct.

This PR will mitigate complaints of discriminatory negligence and serve as a resolution to future complaints of gender discrimination.

To all my newly celebrated CNCF Ambassadors.

Please loudly escalate this. KubeCon NA 24 in SLC is being held in a state deputizing civilians to abuse people using basic necessary human accommodations.

Do not host events in states hostile to the CNCF community. Duh.

im not say NOT be nervous in an interview

but have some dang confidence bc the company wants to speak with YOU

We cannot have a discussion about the low birth rate without acknowledging that parents are left with almost zero resources and exorbitant childcare costs.

And we’re criticized for having to take time out of work to care for our kids. It is near impossible.

Gentle reminder that org values are expressed via promotion.

You cannot say you value something and not speak aloud that positive impact in promo.

Likewise, you can’t say “we don’t do x here” and let it slide in promo.

Promo is an extension of values.

Today, Learn Go with Tests reached 20 thousand⭐️ on GitHub!

Stars are a silly vanity metric, but I'm still very jazzed.

When I started to write the first tests for containerlab I went 'the integration tests' way. Mainly for two reasons:

1. it is pretty hard to mock and stub container runtime and particular node behavior
2. it is pretty easy to write and run an integration test

So over time…

Good protip if you're using any of these sites on your job search.

Some nice features are coming in Go 1.21. I'm looking forward to the loop var experiment. I didn't know about structured logging joining the standard library, along with maps and slices packages. The onceValue and onceFunc are going to be helpful.

Great post by Andy Warfield about S3 and his path to Amazon. The kind of scale where one in a quadrillion events become common occurrences is unfathomable to me. Also, it's neat to read that Amazon ships its org chart, which works well for them.

The Long History of Nobody Wants to Work Anymore

Aww, the Intel NUC was one of the most interesting and useful consumer product lines Intel produced. So many people had one at work, in a #homelab ... but apparently it is not to be.

NetworkChuck and I even brought two to MrBeast HQ earlier this year!

Excellent introduction and tutorial for Makefiles. Immediately added it to my bookmarks for sharing with future teams using Make.

I learned a handful from this, and maybe I'll finally remember to start using .PHONY consistently.

I wrote about my c-section:

Pretty disappointing take. Oversimplification of the state of the world as “culture war”, and ignoring it is what has made so much of tech so unsafe.
This is just a perpetuation of the absurd myth that tech should be “neutral”

If you are ever shopping etsy/ebay... go to a listing. open a picture. right click -> 'copy image'. open images.google.com. ctrl-v paste. find the original image and make sure its a legit seller, not a dropshipper.
