Me and @charlieegan3 have been working on a new guide for the most common errors seen in #OPA during #Rego policy development. Parser errors, compiler errors and evaluation errors — it's all in there. Hopefully it'll be a useful resource to anyone trying to get a better understanding on why some errors happen, and how to fix them. Feedback always welcome! https://docs.styra.com/opa/errors #PolicyAsCode #IAM #Identity #Authorization #DevOps #DevSecOps

Pro tip: If you want to stop being friends with an autistic ADHDer, you probably need to tell them straight out. Because all this "fading away into the woodwork" doesn't work with people who will often not speak to their friends in years without any of the friendship feelings changing. Not seeing someone doesn't change that we think of them as our friends. So not being in touch with us, doesn't communicate "I don't want to be friends anymore". You're going to have to say it. And don't worry, we'll respect your wishes. We just need to know to understand. #adhd #audhd #actuallyAutistic

This year’s State of Open Con schedule focuses on establishing the future of open source across software, hardware and data.  Open source communities are reliant on a significant amount of unpaid labour. That makes for an interesting dichotomy that is emphasized during economic downturns. Since, theoretically, anyone should be able to join an open source project, it should have lower barriers to entry. But having free time time do free work — or being employed by a big tech company specifically to contribute to open source — is entirely based on privilege.  » Read more about: The Future of Open Source is Uncertain  »

Went to a tech meetup in Dublin yesterday and no one I spoke to had heard of the fediverse (or Mastodon, even). I’m talking about software engineers. This blows my mind. (At least everyone I spoke with has heard of it now, though. And when people do hear about it – as with the #SmallWeb – they do get it. And they’re excited about it.) #fediverse #mastodon #SmallWeb

I strive to respect everybody’s personal preferences, so I usually steer clear of debates about which is the best programming language, text editor or operating system. However, recently I was asked a couple of times why I like and use a lot of Go, so here is a coherent article to fill in the blanks of my ad-hoc in-person ramblings :-).

In an era of remote work, some employees are recording and posting their video layoffs and firings on social media. It can be empowering in a lonely situation, but is it wise?

kinda weird how people will just attach chatgpt to customer service things and let it fuck around practically unmonitored while they watch their human employees like a hawk and fire them at the first …

OpenAI removing its rules against using it for Warfare and Military Tech is so fucking funny.

People are still posting on Twitter. It’s nuts. We will never end smoking.

Started the first work week of the year with a free for all bug fixing week where everyone on the team was free to fix whatever they wanted no matter priority. It is a great way to get rid of minor issues that have been bugging you for a long time, but never get scheduled to address. Highly recommended for every software project.

I wrote up a tech talk I recently did at work for our tech team meeting, about readability, inspired by a session at SoCraTes UK 2023. tl;dr think about your audience when you talk about readability, there might be some implicit assumptions https://blog.probablyfine.co.uk/2024/01/13/diving-into-readability.html #software #tdd #xp

Is there any evidence that captchas actually work? I suspect they have little to no effect, but this is based on nothing but my personal dislike of them.

I’m pretty sure the most impactful thing I did this week was teach a colleague to git add with -p. And I feel pretty good about that. Context in case it’s useful: - p is for patch. Command ‘git add -p’ presents the user with all their unstaged changes, one chunk at a time, and prompts for whether to add it or not. This is better than using a dot to all your local changes, or having to type long file paths to pick up just a few files and ignore others. Try it!

Fuck it. This was my 2023: getting married, almost dying, learning that the thing about almost dying is that nobody cares except for the people who care so much that it rewrites the world around you, the way that scientists love, the fact that at the end of the day we are our cells, what it means to get caught up inside of #LongCovid while everyone talks about it but nobody listens, the cruelty of doctors, how much we try not to see it all. https://www.drcathicks.com/post/covid-data-log
