What a year 2023 was at incident.io! While it's hard to summarize 365 days, a few things stand out: We launched a bunch of new products like Catalog and Status Pages. We hired a ton and we're now sitting at nearly 80 employees as of December 2023. We expanded into the U S opening up a brand new office just a few weeks ago. ...and there's still so much more ahead of us So as we close the curtain on 2023, we sat down with the three co-founders of incident.io to do a bit of reflection on the wild ride that was this year. In this episode you'll hear them discuss challenges, big wins, moments of growth, what's next for us, and most importantly, what the three co-founders like most about one another.

This week we talk to Steve Krouse, the creator of Val.Town, a platform for writing TypeScript code in a browser and deployed instantly. Starting with Steve's with his first venture into teaching children to code we trace that line directly to the vision of Val.Town.

Today I've been emailed by both Clever Cloud and Heroku around "your account hasn't been used in some time so we're gonna delete it" - coincidence, or is today their "clean up all the old accounts day"?

In this episode of the Mechanical Ink podcast, host Schalk Neethling engaged in a profound conversation with Taylor Fairbank and Kai Katschthaler from Distribute Aid. They delved into the intersection of technology and humanitarian aid, emphasizing the importance of understanding ground-level needs over imposing tech solutions. Taylor narrated his transition from a tech background to co-founding Distribute Aid, influenced by his experiences in startups and the socio-political climate. Kai introduced the Open Source Explorers Program, highlighting its inclusive nature and role in integrating diverse skills into humanitarian projects. The discussion also touched upon the personal aspects of working in this field, including the impact of neurodiversity and gender identity on their experiences and perspectives.

The best management advice I ever got is to try and figure out what good management looks like and then put on a performance - try and act like a good manager, go through all of the required motions Because it turns out imitating a good manager and actually being a good manager are mostly the same thing (I think about this sometimes when I encounter debates about whether or not LLMs can reason about or understand content)
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
The product team is too busy with incidents to prioritize work to prevent incidents 🤷
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 »

I was pretty chuffed with adding these Slack notifications (via Goreleaser and go-semantic-release) for releases to #DependencyManagementData which flag when there are breaking changes in the release! Makes it much easier to see at a glance, especially as there's a lot of changes going into it 🤓
If you've been hearing me talking about #DependencyManagementData and are wondering about some real world scenarios it's been useful, check out the new Case Studies section on the site 👀

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

Ben Johnson (@benbjohnson) is the creator of Litestream and LiteFS, two open-source disaster recovery solution for SQLite. Litestream is designed to provide continuous backups for SQLite databases by streaming incremental changes, allowing for easy data recovery in the event of a server crash. LiteFS, on the other hand, is built on LiteStream but uses transactional control to focus on replication and high availability. Join us as Ben discusses the challenges and trade-offs of open source contributions and the future of databases. Contributor is looking for a community manager! If you want to know more, shoot us an email at eric@scalevp.com. Subscribe to Contributor on Substack for email notifications! In this episode we discuss: The history of how Ben got involved in SQLite development out of “spite” How Litestream “works on a fluke” Different use cases for Litestream vs LiteFS Why fully open contributions isn’t always Ben’s style The greater server-side SQLite landscape Links: Litestream LiteFS Fly.io BoltDB People mentioned: Philip O’Toole (@general_order24) Other episodes: The Social Miracle: rqlite with Philip O’Toole The Big Fork: libSQL with Glauber Costa

I was concerned that if my build runs every 12 hours, it’ll keep sending webmentions for the same posts. Remy assures me that duplicate webmentions aren’t an issue, as the accepting server will just respond with a 200 if I send a webmention that it’s already seen.
Although that should be true, I found that some folks don't handle it as well - my site was deploying multiple times an hour so was a bit noisier, but worth knowing that not every Webmention receiver is equal

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 :-).
