In the discussion we cover the "just upgrade" mentality, how backporting works, why it's hard, and why it matters. We also cover some oddities the world of CVE brings to the discussion.

I had a fab time speaking at Women in Tech, Notts! My talk “The Ripples from Pebbles” was written from the depths of my creative dreamer heart. I’m glad it resonated so much 🥹 The audience was engaging+supportive, esp with my croaky throat 💛 guess I’m feeling ready to speak at more events in 2025 👀
If, after quitting your job, you hear or get notified about your ex-leader doing these : Speaking negatively about your departure Undermining your decision by criticizing you, your new role or company Attempting to make you feel guilty Spreading resentment throughout the organisation Taking the resignation as a personal attack Prioritizing their own interests over those of the team Being absent or unavailable for the team during the transition Spreading gossip about you Delaying or writing vague performance appraisals or recommendations for you Displaying an “it’s all about me” attitude Failing to acknowledge their own mistakes or shortcomings Blaming others for failures or problems within the team These behaviours scream insecurity, selfishness, and a lack of confidence in building and retaining talent. They crush team morale, erode trust, and send a clear message to the rest of the team: ‘You’re disposable too.’

I'm on Fallthrough: Patching Problems with Persnickety Proxies Purveyed by Paternalistic Princes (2 mins read).
Announcing my appearance as a guest host on Fallthrough, discussing the Go module proxy, pondering 'is Go dead?' and whether the Go team at Google have our best interests at heart.
I hope the nuance that we all intended came across in this episode. It’s really tough to be critical of the things you love, but if you don’t speak up at some point, I think things just wind up getting worse and worse. [contains quote post or other embedded content]
