Hi, I'm JamieTanna (he/him/his), and I'm currently a Senior Software Engineer at Deliveroo.
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 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

This week we’re talking with Nathan Sobo about his next big thing. Nathan is known for his work on the Atom editor while at GitHub. But his work wasn’t finished when he left, so…he started Zed, a high-performance multiplayer editor that’s engineered for performance. And today, Nathan talks us through all the details.
I've just submitted a couple talk proposals to @dddem@mastodon.me.uk 🎉

A few days ago, a stressed-out gamer confessed on ResetERA he was considering giving up on gaming, as he felt the time spent could be put to “better” use. The thread somehow struck a chord here, not …
I hated writing in high school. It wasn’t objective like my favorite subjects, math and science. It also didn’t help that we had to write about old, hard-to-understand literature like Shakespeare. But my perspective on writing changed once I started working full-time as a software engineer.
In this new world of LLMs (often referred to as “AI”) data ownership and the quality of that data will very soon become the moat, not the algorithms.
Any org that to hands over their data to a vendor -which vendor then keeps this data and gets to use it as training- is foolish. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

The panel discuss the parts of Go they never use. Do they avoid them because of pain in the past? Were they overused? Did they always end up getting refactoring out? Is there a preferred alternative?
Wherein I argue that you should plan to regularly put in the work required to keep your dependencies up-to-date, because doing so gives you more predictability and control for the same overall effort.
This controversial decision coupled with poor messaging has created anxiety the Open Source community. Learn what's happening and how we can move forward.
The home team talks with Wesley Faulkner, Senior Community Manager at AWS, about what’s going on with this cycle of tech layoffs, how to position yourself for success on the job market, and why it’s worth interviewing for jobs you might not want. Plus: The two things you should do as soon as you get an offer.
In a world where most documentation sucks, large language models write better than humans, and people won’t be bothered to type full sentences with actual punctuation. Two men… against all odds… join an award-worthy podcast… hosted by a coin-operated, singing code monkey (?)… to convince the developer world they’re doi...
Play APIs Unplugged - S3 E12 - Orghitecture and Team APIs with Matthew Skelton & Manuel Pais by MuleSoft on desktop and mobile. Play over 320 million tracks for free on SoundCloud.
I wish more APIs had an endpoint to get a whoami style response to work out if a) the credentials work and b) who they're for.
When you find a thing and want to check it's still active it's super handy, although I do appreciate that some platforms probably don't add that so you can't check if creds are active as easily

Don't know what the cause of it is but every time I see he or she instead of they I get unnecessarily annoyed. Like, just use the third person word that's more inclusive too 😠

This is our 9th Kaizen with Adam & Jerod. We start today’s conversation with the most important thing: embracing change. For Gerhard, this means putting Ship It on hold after this episode. It also means making more time to experiment, maybe try a few of those small bets that we recently talked about with Daniel. Ka...
The different ways I work as a software engineer with ADHD:
- Do nothing all day.
- Work sporadically throughout the day with random spurts of energy.
- Do all the work for the week in one hour, usually around 5pm.
