I should have posted this on #SundayFunday , but here you go. Maybe it helps get you through the week.
#LabradorOnPaddleBoard

Yes, I did this. I moved the laptop outside for the team call with FreeBSD Foundation.
No - not bragging. Well, maybe a little. :)

One of my favorite emails to receive! Thank you United Airlines!
I am so excited about this trip. First stop is San Sebastian to experience Spain and bonus to see Cortney Nickerson! Then off to France with good friends.

Does anyone else think that just because you visit a shopping site and put something in your cart, this should not be permission for them to subscribe you to their emails again???

The best part of getting home. 88 degrees, sunny, and doggy play date that wears out the lab!

Happy weekend all!

Earlier this year things got a bit tough, folks came through for me in very unexpected ways.

I paid it forward when I was able to.

Wednesday I woke up to some extremely uplifting news: a friend landed their next gig 😊

If your super power is networking, use it to help others.

#OpenSource communities and the software they create are not products, they are projects; and we are here to educate and encourage participation, not sell.
Do bad players in marketing and community have some blame to take for XZ?

Sunday Funday! CC and her bff Buck.

Be honest, as open source contributors, do you find Contributor Guidelines useful or do you generally ignore them?

We’ve reached that point in the week where we would all benefit from seeing some baby bats eating bananas

Discourse around XZ has fallen apart. You have SVPs at Google critical of the community for not taking their hobbies more seriously, contributors being critical for not getting paid etc.

XZ was infiltrated because we weren't paying the infiltrator?

Companies have no

It’s remarkable the number of leaders right now blaming solid ICs for “not working hard enough” when the real issue is the leader’s inability to set a clear goal.

The more I think about the xz issue, the harder it is to find any easy solution. I saw a suggestion that it was likely a nation state behind the action. Think about that. That's not solved by 'pay the maintainers more.'

I’m beyond honored to have e this opportunity.

This is strictly a NON-TECHNICAL keynote focusing on the importance of people.

#Java is NOTHING without the ecosystem that’s been built around it the last 29 years.

Its meaningful future is tied to the community.
