Jamie Tanna's profile image

Hi, I'm Jamie Tanna 👋🏼

If you're referring to me, I'm happy being called Jamie, Jamie Tanna, jamietanna, and that you respect my pronouns: he/him/his.

I'm currently the Renovate project lead at Mend.

I currently live in Nottingham with my partner Anna Dodson and our cat Morph and our dog Cookie.

I use my site as a method of blogging about my learnings, as well as sharing information about projects I have previously, or am currently, working on in my spare time.

I'm an maintainer for a number of Open Source projects, including oapi-codegen, and Renovate, as part of my job at Mend.

I'm a GNU/Linux user, a big advocate for the Free Software Movement, and the IndieWeb movement and I try to self host my own services where possible, instead of relying on other providers.

I have ADHD (Inattentive Type) and am learning how to make my life work better around it.

Due to the many social media platforms and different ways to connect, I've captured all my contact information on my /elsewhere page. Alternatively, you can drop me an email at hi@jamietanna.co.uk.

I also have a /now page which aims to cover some more up-to-date "what I'm up to" information.

My birthday is on the .

They walk through a week at Amp, from Thorsten's Sunday post and the single Monday meeting to writing down goals in silence. They explain why Amp has no quarterly goals, no departments and no territory, and how feature flags and the work in progress, orb good and orb bad channels keep a team of 21 in sync. They also cover reviewing changes with agents, pushing to main without mandatory code review, and why they think more companies will soon work like this.

I gave a talk at EMF titled "Men in Tech #YesAllMen", in which I told my experience of being a woman in tech. I was afraid to publish it in case it affected my current or future employment. With all the current news I would like to add my 2¢. So here is the recording: https://youtu.be/WXL6K1lhvt0?is=WlfZvJ34TeIB-SUu

Listened to Open Source Security
Post details
Open Source Security is a media project to help showcase and educate on open source security. Our goal is to give the community a platform educate both developers and users on how open source security works. There’s a lot of good work happening that doesn’t get attention because there’s no marketing department behind it, they don’t have a developer relations team posting on LinkedIn every two hours. Let’s focus on those people and teams then learn what they do and how they do it. The goal is to hear from the people doing the work, they know what’s up, they have a lot to teach us. We just have to listen.
