Liked RIP AWS Go Lambda Runtime | Mark Wolfe's Blog by Mark Wolfe 
Post details
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is deprecating the go1.x runtime on Lambda, this is currently scheduled for December 31, 2023. Customers need to migrate their Go based lambda functions to the al2.provided runtime, which uses Amazon Linux 2 as the execution environment. I think this is a bad thing for a couple of reasons: There is no automated migration path from existing Go Lambda functions to the new custom runtime. Customers will need to manually refactor and migrate each function to this new runtime, which this is time-consuming and error-prone.

And to follow up on this, there’s a little known policy for Micro.blog hosting: when you have a paid subscription, we continue to host your blog forever even after you cancel and stop paying. Good URLs don’t change and don’t go away, unless you want them to.

I sometimes forget about my autism and how sensory overload affects me. Then I'm surprised when I casually turn on my earbuds noise cancellation and a sudden peace and calm invades me wholly. "What the fuck is this sudden relaxation? Oh, right, I was overstimulated, that makes sense". IF ONLY I REALIZED HOURS BEFORE. #ASD #ActuallyAutistic

Insufficient governance and accountability is the sleeping giant of risk in open source. This relates closely to the insufficient resourcing of the people doing the work and the charitable organizations that back them, but that's one that we've already spilled a lot of ink on as an industry.

Hot take: packaging open source software is actual work (and is sometimes what we demurely call 'non-trivial' in this field). I say this as a sysadmin who has sometimes had to deal with the results of not packaging software and then not keeping up with the state of the software we didn't package but installed anyway. (Sure, sometimes you get lucky and the packaging instructions are easy to write (Debian rules, RPM specfiles, whatever Arch uses, etc). And sometimes they aren't.)

My lab (http://devsuccesslab.com/ ) has a new pilot survey open about developers' work experiences & how they see AI tooling in dev work. This is a different kind of dev survey. We're not interested in tallying who's using what brands for some trends report. We're interested in how developers are DOING. This is also a pilot test of new measures, so the more folks take it, the more we learn how to design deep research on this! Please share widely. #softwaredevelopment http://bit.ly/3OLmIul
