Can you generate a blockquote'd embed?

Every time I work on a project like that I end up having to put myself through more ceremony to keep the atomic changes and commit messages, and I feel "if y'all would just let me rebase-and-merge or we learn together how to write better commits, it'd be easier"

Have you asked the attendees what they'd like to do? (may sound rude but doesn't mean to be!) May lead to some interesting points and feedback, or a case of "we like it but I don't read up on Web stuff much" that's interesting to know too.

In the few CoPs I've helped organise over time:

  • Running a low-effort retro to see what's working and not working for folks can help - we did one which highlighted that a load of people wanted to dig into a specific subject, but no one had voiced that 😅
  • Rotating who's organising (preferably volunteering over voluntelling) can add a bit more variety - even if it's just the CoP leads/most senior folks to start with? Then can be rotated around with other folks too
  • Running a lean coffee was a good way to get to chat about things in a less pressured way than folks feeling they had to present something big for the session
  • Starting each session with a different engineer (who's been voluntold ahead of time) who does ~5-10 mins overview of their team, what they own and some of the stuff they've done gives a bit of an insight into what everyone does - depends on how much involvement folks get cross-team, but at a previous company this was super useful as it was a bit more silo'd

Tips for generally upping engagement, or for folks sharing things they've seen around the Web / have worked on recently that is interesting, or a mix of both? How many people are usually in the CoP meetings?

Got any good resources or places you'd point folks to for this?

I've written about it more verbosly in Why should you blog? and also helped as someone with ADHD not to mention being a wealth of knowledge I can look back on, that I mostly write for me, but I see lots of traffic coming to my site with folks trying to solve similar problems!

Is this in person only? 👀

 Reply

Thank you, that's helped me get there with the changes I needed 🏼

 Reply

Thanks! I think I'd looked at that before, I think I'm trying to avoid hardcoding too much as the advisory_type can be one of several things, but I'll give it a go, it's deffo better than what I'm doing right now 🤞🏽

Sorry to hear about COVID, glad you're feeling a bit better now and hope it's gone soon 🤗

This is why I always would post Twitter HTML embeds, then remove their JS widget, so it stayed plain and unchanged

You should be able to use https://docs.github.com/en/rest/repos/webhooks?apiVersion=2022-11-28 after enumerating all of your repos, if a bit of a manual hacky hacking is what you'd be happy doing!

Finally got there about half an hour ago. Almost uninterrupted attempts since 1700 yesterday, and at least several times it failed part way, or went to verify post download only to redownload 😡

@marcus@k8s.social wrote https://marcusnoble.co.uk/2019-10-21-meetup-alternatives/ a few years back that may be of interest, in the IndieWeb community Aaron Parecki built https://github.com/aaronpk/meetable and it's been really great for what we need (including being used outside of the IndieWeb community such as for https://events.oauth.net/

 Reply

Yes absolutely! I've found doing this has also really helped as a neurodiverse person as well as giving me a ridiculous back catalogue of posts - half of my blog is this sort of stuff 😁

 Reply

I recently wrote a blog post about this 😂 I'm much more preferable to having both formats available, so definitely +1 folks write a blog post after doing a talk!

 Reply

Interesting - Related Content I turned off quite a while back due to build speed issues, what would the backlinks template look like? (but short answer no!)

 Reply

I have You're currently viewing page 1 of 733, of 36637 posts. on my site, which includes all sorts of content, and not even everything as I've got content to backport from Twitter archives 😅

I even find how to make content discoverable hard because if someone's looking for ie a Go post of mine, they could search in the site for it, or go through pages of things tagged go, or try and find it on my new archives page 🤔

 Reply

It does not wish to be perceived, and tbh, can you blame it?

Something I love about [govulncheck] (https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/vuln/cmd/govulncheck) is that it tries to find usages of code paths that would trigger a vulnerability so it's a more effective scan, and now I wish that every CVE scanner supported it now 😅

 Reply

Absolutely love the summary pages 👏🏽 I manually do some of this while writing my Week Notes https://www.jvt.me/week-notes/2023/40/ but love the format of your summary pages - deffo gonna have a look at using Trakt 👀

 Reply

Ooh yeah this looks like it may be more what I want, thanks! That transcript should be a great start 😁

Interesting viewpoint, I like it! I'm a fan of keeping all the things forever (and maybe "deleting it" but keeping a copy myself) but I like your perspective too
