I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

I wrote something! This is the story of how I sabotaged my progress by choosing a tool that was not right for me at that moment, despite it being a good tool nevertheless ☺️

I get it: things may feel weird right now for developers and we don't know exactly how AI usage will shape the future of software engineering as we know it. But I insist on keeping a positive outlook on everything: if the shift is inevitable as they say, we'll find ways to make it enjoyable 😊

Here are 4 straightforward tips to ship safer containers in 2026!
TL;DR:
1: do not run as root
2: use a CVE scanner often
3: minimize your attack surface
4: pin by digests instead of tags

This whole thread is good advice for dealing with contracts in general; I have had a company strike unusual provisions before.
Read your contract and pay attention; they're serious documents and you need to understand them. They can help you or hurt you.

Oh and if their answer to a section that sounds weird is, "oh well we would never enforce that" then the correct response is, "sounds great, let's delete that then."
This is because if there is a later dispute and they try to twirl their mustache and say "oh ho ho! But when the contract says this, it really means YOU GET FED TO THE ALLIGATOR PIT," then you pull out the email where it says that actually there's a 0.5% fine over the first thirty days.
