Whether you’re a seasoned company with 10+ years of operations, or a startup that’s just getting off the ground, making sure you have a good culture of engineering is really important. Not only will this have a significant impact on the folks on your team, it’ll make a big difference with hiring. When everyone knows that your company is the place to be when it comes to culture, attracting really good talent becomes that much easier. But I was curious, what do some of the folks at incident.io think about engineering culture in general and how to best build it? Better yet, what about the engineering culture at incident.io? What’s it like? To answer all of these questions and more, I sat down with Lisa Karlin Curtis, Tech Lead, and Alicia Collymore, Engineering Manager, to get their perspectives on this incredibly important topic. We chat about what “culture” even means, why diversity is important, how teams can make sure their engineers feel empowered to share their perspectives and a whole lot more.

This week on The Business of Open Source I spoke with Pranay Prateek, co-founder of SigNoz. Pranay talked about why open source is important to SigNoz's business, why it's super important to deliver value quickly, even for an observability product, and why founders shouldn't think of open source...

I wish more people who are worried about FOSS supply side attacks would realize that universal basic income and free healthcare would result in an almost infinite stream of excellent software from people who care more about quality than profit.

I decided to build a "clap" feature into my #IndieWeb blog, so visitors can show appreciation anonymously and easily, if they want! I wrote a little about it here https://www.byjp.me/posts/easy-appreciation/; it uses https://val.town (I wish they had a Fediverse account, so I could tag them) and progressive enhancement to be useful and easy even for folks without Javascript browsers ☺️

That's fair, sorry to hear! I mostly listen to my Discover Weekly and Release Radar which help introduce some new things, and sometimes will do a song radio if there's a particular thing I like, and that usually leads to a few more, but that's just what works for me. Hope you find something good for you 🤞🏽

First time I've seen someone say Playlist Radio is gone, I assume they've maybe tried to push the "smart shuffle" as an alternate way of doing the same thing? I'm glad Song Radio is still there as I use that 🙃

We should definitely also pay maintainers. Maintainers should be compensated for their work. But we need both. All the visions to *just* pay maintainers don't sound like compensation for work they're already doing. It sounds like paying to control that work, and demand additional reporting and compliance work on top that is of no benefit to the maintainer.

Licenses like GPL are reciprocative licenses. If you take, you must also give back. Licenses like MIT are parasitic licenses. You can take without giving back. #software #freedom #licenses #reciprocative #parasitic

Your time was not wasted. You may have procrastinated but that's only because you are really burnt out, and besides it's not all bad. You probably got some ideas, inspiration, or something from it. And besides sometimes it's ok to take a break. You don't have to be "useful" all the time. It's ok. You tried your hardest and that's enough, and whatever you did today you will learn from for tomorrow and be better. Also you are not worth what you can output *pat pat* :strawb_headpats: This is mostly a note to myself but also something I think some of you may need to hear and accept like me.

Today was a lovely spring day, the sun was warm. I decided to open the doors to the garden and read a book. It was cold and windy and next doors cat came in and refused to leave, beat up my dog and destroyed some things. So not fully successful.

#Hashicorp sending their lawyers on #OpenTofu feels like the last chapter of what was once a great open source company. Oh well, the claims look baseless, and like pretty much any move Hahicorp made this past year, this will only hurt themselves. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/opentofuorg_opentofu-project-was-recently-made-aware-activity-7182147077496344576-jsDQ
