While it wasn't a planned "1.0 feature", the first major #OPA version is substantially faster than previous versions. I didn't even intend to work on #OPA at the time, but started looking into how to reduce the eval time of #Regal linting some of the largest projects. And well, one thing led to another. The 10-20% improvement mentioned is a modest estimate. Regal is about 50% faster, and many other types of policies likely to see similar improvements in evaluation time.
I don’t mean to be a preachy fuck, but the best thing me and Mrs Awfulwoman ever did at Christmas: agree to stop giving each other presents. It absolutely lifts all the stress and makes it a chill time of food, movies, and napping.
What started out a couple years ago as about ~10 IRL friends led to a community of 4,700 active beta testers. I just turned off beta invites in the Ghostty discord. The beta period is officially over; they provided invaluable feedback and contributions ❤️ Getting close now.
I recently found someone’s content that seems great for what I’m trying to learn
They publish content via substack which I refuse to pay for
One of their podcasts they said they love X and it has got better since Elon and it’s an immediate unfollow from me
Today I submitted my first podcast for Hacker Public Radio. I literally wrote a script for myself to deliver, turned on the recorder and read it. I saved the result, filled out a form, attached my file and now it's in the queue to go out. Thanks for hosting my show #HackerPublicRadio #HPR

I continue to care for my team & make decisions to set them up for success despite this org stabbing me in the back & discriminating against me. Even if I wont be there to reap the benefits, I sincerely wish things will improve for the team in the future

This episodes diverges from our traditional fare. I've reviewed the 50 previous editions and picked (IMHO) the coolest code, best prose & my favorite podcast episode from each month!

I used to find tech stuff confusing and intimidating. Now, thanks to Mastodon, I still find it confusing and intimidating, but I also realize it’s SUPER boring, too. Thanks, Mastodon!
True story: my mum worked for the MoD. She was in the kitchen at Sandhurst once and Prince Andrew walked in. Everyone was surprised, no one reacted. He said. 'hm, let's try that again shall we?', then he left the kitchen and walked back in, just to make them all bow properly.
Prick.
Whenever I write a TIL (Today I Learnt) post, it’s because if I don’t, it’ll also be that Today I Forgot (TIF). I’ll still forget, but at least it’s written down somewhere I’ll never look.

i just stumbled upon this picture online and it instantly took me back to high school, when i used to hide the earphone cable under my hoodie and my hair, clip this very radio to my jeans and listen to the radio in class
"hey hazel how do you know when you need to rest??" dont worry babes, my body has a really cool way of just shutting me the fuck down for two days whenever it wants, so thats usually when i schedule the rest time

And yes of course it is literally the paper that gives us this incredible FIGURE 1, which you have CERTAINLY seen if you have ever heard ANYONE talk about ANY "decentralized" or "distributed" system ever

Today was "upgrade my personal fleet of Alpine Linux systems to the latest (3.21) release" day 🥳
I upgraded 5 systems in about 30min! It was boring! 🎉
Upgrading to newer releases was always an annoying experience for me on other distros, but the #alpinelinux folks have done an incredible job making this Just Work twice per year, every year. I have a few silly system configs that always seem to survive release upgrades without needing changes, it's really amazing.
@alpinelinux@fosstodon.org crushed it!
The book that @sarna.dev and I co-authored on writing engineering blog posts is now published. And it’s flanked by the best imaginable “bookends”: a foreword by @bcantrill.bsky.social and an afterword by @scott.hanselman.com! Details and Amazon/Manning links at bit.ly/3AVPWn9.

Anytime you're looking to criminalize homelessness, I think you should be required to put a pricetag on it #OnPoli

Exploiting mansplaining as tradecraft during WW II:
“If she wants to know something specific, but doesn’t want people to notice her asking questions, she should simply make incorrect statements while in the company of experts. Her companions will correct her, especially if they're men.”
From Elyse Graham's “Book and Dagger”, describing a training school for the SOE.

As far as manifestos go, this is pretty short and concise.
I think killing people is wrong, especially if it's premeditated, carefully planned, and carried out with cold detachment. There are no heroes in this story as far as I'm concerned; just one killer encountering a killer of a different stripe.
Still, news organizations suppressing this manifesto is a dereliction of duty. So, here you go.
And now, mastodon.social sends referrers!

In every job I've had before, I put in 100% effort, but ended up exhausted after a few months and hating work. Started a new job last year and consciously decided to only put ~50-60% effort from the off. Manager happy, no burnout and I don't hate work. 10/10, would recommend.
not a big fan of murder as a political tool, naturally, but i am a fan of big symbolic gestures, and shooting the CEO of an insurance company with bullets that have 'deny', 'defend', 'depose' written on them is... *respectful whistle*
if your corporation requires you to use your phone for work, they need to provide you a phone
fuck you if you're going to require me to allow you to remotely wipe my personal phone, what the fuck?
