After I tapped my card at the drs it asked me to verify the transaction. I pushed the "OK" box on the screen several times, nothing. I tried the white bar below it, still nothing. The woman explained it was the green button in the bottom right - not intuitive (and what's the little touchpad for?)

@arungupta.bsky.social 's, Fostering Open Source Culture recently came out. The book is made up of a variety of topics, each covered in 2 sections-Arun provides the 1st half & the 2nd half is composed of supporting case studies. Im psyched to have been able to contribute 2 of the case studies :)

At the end of the year, my son & I went to see Goose. Neither of us had heard of them, but they sounded intriguing, described as a jam band with trance/funk influences. It was awesome. At points they reminded me of My Morning Jacket, War, the Band, Pink Floyd, the Dead. They played for 3+ hrs.

I really enjoyed my conversation w/ @samalba.com we cover a lot of ground - how Docker was the result of a pivot away from PaaS, the challenges of scaling startups, the importance of team culture
and finding the right VC, and how an rigorous discovery process led to Dagger and pipeline as a service

I spent some time with @barton808.bsky.social at KubeCon going over my past at Docker, how we came across several technology and teams challenges, and how it became the foundation to build @dagger.io - If you're curious here is the full recording: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHHa...

Yikes, i just booked a rental car through Budget and got a surprise. When i put in my dates and class of car it came up with a total of $188. When I clicked on "reserve," an additional $105 in "fees and taxes" was added and I ended up paying $293 ugg

This is one of the cooler thumb drives Ive received at a conference. The little critter is a xerus as in "Xenial Xerus" the code name for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Xenial is an adjective meaning "welcoming in nature" and Xerus is a type of African ground squirrel. --Any guesses on the capacity of the drive?

The other day I had the opportunity to use a "visible"pump. Anyone know about the layout/components of these boards? (according to chat GPT, they were made by Wayne Fueling Systems, which began life in 1891 as the "Wayne oil tank & pump Company" In Wayne, Indiana) #embeddedsystemdesign

I keep this in my wallet to remind myself that those who don't pay attention do not survive (I don't actually keep this in my wallet, but next time I'm being interviewed I'll make sure it's there so that I can dramatically pull it out and say, do you know why I have this?)

I like the way the entire right half of the curve lays out the increasingly dangerous effects of stress. Toxic stress is more than a corner case that you find at the far right of the curve.
