trying to find the "but kamala will have us in war" crowd ... eerily quiet they are.

I’m running out of ideas and places on where I can post this so to gain some traction so if you know where I could post this (discord server, slack group, etc.) then DM me and please let Mel ow where I could do so because I’m out of ideas. Thanks.

@kelseyhightower.com on platform engineering: The deployment inputs you ask for – version, CPU, memory, disk, region – are the API your developers rely on. VMware, cloud, whatever the backend is… the API is what matters. 👉 Full interview: jb.gg/p27tj8

I have an update that I really did not want to make. With everything going on, I am focused on this and only this. It is not the update I wanted to bring to you but here it is. gofund.me/e40b06322

Advice, tips, hacks, shortcuts ... no. If you would just lock in and go hard for 30 days ...

I made a list of improvements for if I ever emcee again. It was scary at first, but ended up being fun. ❤️❤️ @lawrencedlockhart.bsky.social @ghiblimagic.bsky.social Zack Toni #renderATL

Honestly this is a 🔥 video, it mentions the way to get a job in tech nowdays is to not grind code but instead to focus on solving problems! Ideally you should figure out a specialized area, then build components/code that focus on THAT area

Feels like yesterday. Can't believe this was 2 years ago but I'm crazy excited for the magic to happen again next week @renderatl.com #renderatl #renderatl2025

If I had any clue to the amount of pleasure I would feel seeing a tiny seedling grow into a healthy vegetable, I would’ve done this years ago. Really enjoying my first ever foray in growing a backyard vegetable garden.

@metadevgirl.bsky.social just reminded me of this awesome chat we had down in New Orleans a few years back on managing up in your tech career. Enjoy: www.youtube.com/live/qaSEXzS...

Day 21 of something beautiful #gardening

I got to tinker around with Manus AI youtu.be/KVysSR0rX3I?...

Twitter is having ISSUES today. Guess those infrastructure roles were important after all 🤷🏾‍♂️

I got early access to Manus and so far ... I'm impressed

"Increasing the volume of your voice but not the logic of your argument" is quite literally a Twitter user modus operandi these days.

This is free and that's pretty cool. #GeminiCodeAssist #Google #AI

Going a bit deeper in containers recently

Popping in with a random Hello World! (in Java of course ;-) )

I did a guided relaxation visualization thingy in like 10 minutes w/AI www.youtube.com/watch?v=96dx...

Reposting this fun and informative interview with the man who holds the career success secrets, Mike R Tomasello www.youtube.com/watch?v=17cW...

A period of unemployment can be challenging on multiple levels. It's also a unique opportunity to level-up. Lately I've been acting as if I'm back in college taking multiple courses: System Design (Designing Data-intensive Apps), Containerization (Docker), and AI Exploration (Gemini/IDX). Level up!

@renderatl.com tech conference hype video game has no equal. Add the speakers, workshops, panelists, and so many amazing techie friends and you'll know why this is one-of-a-kind. See you this year? youtu.be/_ofy20CCCww?...

Let’s go Kendrick 🤌🏾

For the record, DE&I are 3 separate letters, an acronym for 3 separate words, each of which have a different function and desired outcome in enterprise settings. None of the functions nor outcomes have parallels with being unqualified.

- rich enough to end world hunger - - spends time ending hunger-ending assistance - ^^ these two shouldn't be the same person ^^

DE&I != unqualified. Moreover, the purpose of programs with this label is to make sure the most qualified are hired, paid appropriately, retained, and not passed over due to their personal demographics. Questions? Let me kno
