Happy to be reacquainted with a bunch of the UK IndieWeb community at State of the Browser 11 today, like old times! https://calumryan.com/notes/3672
Attached: 1 image Happy bi visibility day! Yes, I am married to a beautiful man who I love. But I'm #StillBi. Not gay. Same as we shouldn't assume a person's gender by how they look, we shouldn't assume a person's orientation by who their partner is. #BiVisibility #BiPride

Well that was an exciting couple of days. Love rambling on stage to people - ignite/lightning talks are a new kind of nervous energy, you don't have enough time for the adrenalin spike to stop before you're off the stage! Thoroughly enjoyed #DevOpsDaysLDN and looking forward to seeing everyone's submissions for next year!
One of the things about coming on mastodon is you’re never just scrolling around and come across a new kind of porn you’d never even imagined existed, it’s terrible

Following on from a successful conversation that was had at #DevOpsDays Chicago, there was an Open Space yesterday all about #compensation and #salary at #DevOpsDays London, which of course I was super interested in, and happy to share my own salary history as well as some of the things that companies have done over the year.
Based on one of the questions I'll (soon ™️) be adding how much on-call is compensated, if not part of the salary
As you may have noticed, I’m in the middle of revamping my blog. It’s now a static site, run via Hugo and Cloudflare Pages. I was planning to use Disqus for comments, but changed my mind when I realised it meant ads and tracking. This led to a search for alternatives which ended in choosing Webmention.
Slack tip: ⌘⇧S (command shift s) expands the workplace switcher to a dedicated column. Allows you to see which workspace has new activity without needing to tap to expand the list first. h/t @anderseknert@hachyderm.io #Slack #proTip
Had a great time doing an Ignite talk at #DevOpsDays London today about dependency-management-data - come say hey, there's so much more to it than I could squeeze into 5 minutes!
I've got a good getting started guide and a long-form post if you want a bit more depth

@ian@hachyderm.io The German bread pumpernickel translates to English as “fart goblin”, referring to the flatulence induced by the difficult to digest rye.
Nothing like getting trolled by the linter I wrote 3 years ago in my past job. Damn you past Tim. These rules are harsh.
I miss @nova 😔
being a programmer is very liberating because i can turn any computer problem into a much weirder computer problem
Hyperfocus for hours to get my Linux desktop config just so. Fourth test run, there's an error somewhere that the window manager doesn't log or report. *(faint sound like dry twigs snapping in my head)* Reboot into Windows. #ADHD life
Bloke sits next to me on the train and whips out a book, and it’s “A Brief History of the Roman Empire”. What is happening
COVID-19 was many people’s first introduction to the working-from-home experience. I’ve been lucky enough to have been working from home exclusively since 2009 and at US-based companies (e.g. GitHub) since 2012. I’ve also been an EU-based open-source maintainer since 2007 and maintaining the globally-distributed Homebrew package manager since 2009. These experiences have helped me learn some tips on how to be more effective working remotely that I’d like to share with you:
Something something about once you're a nazi bar you're always a nazi bar.
After almost 2 years of development, learning, and growth, we’re finally launching Graphite out of beta! But what does it actually mean to launch?
My spicy take is that XML is better than YAML, because there are situations where XML is appropriate, but there’s no situation where YAML is appropriate. Let me explain…
