Not funny even as a joke. OSS means no intellectual property and no contractual binding when using the software for whatever purpose. It would defeat the purpose of being open.

Give yourself full permission to interview your future managers back. When they ask "Do you have any questions for me," take the opportunity to expose what your next 1+ years under this person might be like. Here are 5 questions I have or wished I'd asked of my future managers:

The older I get and the more absolute rubbish happens to me without a break, the less I find Agatha Christie fucking off to a spa and just letting everyone think she was dead for a few weeks any kind of a mystery.

Today I planted Ally’s forget-me-nots! Part of my holiday PTO was for her 22nd birthday in Vegas, December 17th. The following week, we lost her to suicide. suicidepreventionlifeline.org

I lost 3 friends to suicide the last 3 months of 2021. Losing Ally so soon after her birthday felt like a literal joke. This was the last thing she texted me. Call your friends (even ones that “seem ok”), ask how they’ve been doing, get coffee, BE THERE! Show up. 🤍

I dont post a lot of personal stuff but I do want to take a second to appreciate Ally (sometimes Sally) and remind everyone, once again, to check in on your friends. I don’t know how many times people asked me if I noticed something different that weekend. I didn’t.

If you are a multi billion dollar company and are concerned about log4j, why not just email OSS authors you never paid anything and demand a response for free within 24 hours with lots of info? (company name redacted for *my* peace of mind)

A lot of effort has gone into explaining to the world how tech works. That's nice, but what we *really* need is to explain to tech people how the world works. I knew that many in tech struggle with understanding infrastructure, but the reactions to @tobie are worse.

So the other day, I compared open source to public infrastructure… and let's say that the reactions weren't exactly the ones I expected. twitter.com/tobie/status/1…

If you have a robust skincare routine you have demonstrated aptitude in many core skills of data science. I will not be taking criticism of this idea. Girls who have developed personalized skincare routines know more about multivariate causal inference than many engineers.

My wife just said “bukkake” in front of the kids, to my shock. She then admitted that she didn’t know what it meant and thought it meant like bullshit or something fake and she’d “said it in meetings.” I made her Google it and now she’s having a panic attack.
