welcome to DevRel: your work is often invisible and you'll question whether you should go back to engineering on a monthly basis. ✌️

Current status: looking around for a test server that gives you scratch accounts that you can then enable TOTP MFA for, so you can test TOTP MFA clients so you can understand them and the tricks you can pull for TOTP authentication. There are public expendable-account test servers for email, but I imagine the MFA TOTP case is more obscure (and maybe requires more backend work).

Attached: 4 images Earlier this year we stayed at a hotel in Berlin. They had a little sign that said if we opted not to have our towels washed, they'd give us a present. On our last day, we were given a little packet of mixed seeds to plant when we got home. The results so far have been delightful 🥰 #BloomScrolling

I am helping out on project at work. I worked on the project when it started, and one decision we made was to store ADRs for design decisions local to the project within the repo Two years later, re-reading these is really helping me get up to speed on why some things work the way they do. In particular we had a mob exploration of the codespace and questions popped up which were answered by these ADRs.

Why to prefer `t.Cleanup` to `defer` in tests with subtests using `t.Parallel`
Post details
Go’s <code>defer</code> and <code>t.Cleanup</code> have similar semantics, but there’s a good reason to prefer the use of <code>t.Cleanup</code> specifically in the presence of parallel subtests.
