It always amazes me what a positive mood booster having a productive day is
Hi, I'm Jamie Tanna (he/him/his), and I'm currently a Senior Software Engineer at Elastic.
I currently live in Nottingham with my partner Anna Dodson and our cat Morph and our puppy Cookie.
I use my site as a method of blogging about my learnings, as well as sharing information about projects I have previously, or are currently, working on in my spare time.
I'm an maintainer for a number of Open Source projects, including oapi-codegen, and my most recent passion project, dependency-management-data (DMD).
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.
Drop me an email at hi@jamietanna.co.uk, or using any of the other social links below.

Open Source Nerds Assemble! The deadline to submit a CfP for State of Open is *this weekend*. https://stateofopencon.com/ State of Open is in London on 4 and 5 February, 2025 - right after #FOSDEM. We're looking for interesting speakers on all topics to do with open source, open data, open hardware, funding, AI etc. Submit a proposal at https://sessionize.com/state-of-open-con-2025/ #OpenSource #OpenHardware #OpenData #OpenUK #CyberSecurity
Alas, #SpotifyWrapped is out and is interesting! Did not expect Grafix as my top listen, but given the top songs of 2024 for me, it makes sense!
I'll be more interested to see what happens when I get my Spotify data dump at the end of the year and dig into it as I usually do, and I'm looking at tweaking some of the breakdown to possibly graph my listens / top artists month-by-month
The NotebookLM AI summary of my Wrapped data was a bit uncanny 🤔
Something I've been working on on-and-off for a couple of months is some tweaks to my Manual of Me, prompted by getting a new manager, and wanting to rethink the "things you should know when working with me", as well as delving much more into how #ADHD can affect my work, and some more reflections - and I'm glad that I've finally put the finishing touches on those updates.
Also re-reading my blog post from when I first created it, it's wild to think that this was the first time I'd started using Classless.css, which is now a staple of my microsites!

@jasonkoebler@mastodon.social just wait until they learn about archive.org and all the LLMs that have the data and … at that point CEOs and powerful folk now get interested in right to be forgotten GDPR ideas. This smacks of privacy from video rental data stinging congress people from way back when and now they act. Sigh.

Blogging is one of the best things you can do for your technical acumen, your personal profile, and your career. It forces you to learn what you write about deeply, teaches others, and is visible proof of your skillset. Yeah, it's uncomfortable sometimes and it takes time, but I highly recommend.

In every tech organization, there are some people that seem to know every system, everybody, and every problem. They're super helpful, and save coworkers months of wasted efforts, by short-circuiting dead end paths, sharing efficient workflows, knowing which services already exist, and generally having great technical judgement. *None of those skills are quantifiable on performance reviews, other than peers saying thanks (if they're lucky). *Many underrepresented engineers fill these roles.

The corporation behind #Redis is now starting to chase #OpenSource client libraries claiming trademark violations https://github.com/redis-rs/redis-rs/issues/1419 and are attempting to have the projects transferred to them. If it wasn't obvious before, now is a good time to fuck the hell off from that software. Just use #Valkey or one of the other alternatives.
