Tonight, the Empire State Building tower lights will turn to a pink sparkle at 9:25 to honor the late Dolly Parton.

Dolly was a global cultural icon whose seven-decade career reached generations of fans. Beyond entertainment, Dolly leaves a significant philanthropic legacy through the Dollywood Foundation and Imagination Library, which has provided hundreds of millions of books to children worldwide.

At Nine-Two-Five tonight, we celebrate her and her legacy 💖

I warn you now, this is going to have unfortunate consequences, just as switching to living in suburbia and driving everywhere did. When you lose the ability to write, you also lose some of your ability to think.

In the last 9 months, working with leaders in the @stripe Developer Productivity org, I advocated for and established a team and a measurement framework to understand and improve the software engineering experience at @stripe.

I still remember the day I signed to paperwork to open source #backstage and donate it to the #cncf. So happy to see it up-and-to-the-right! #opensource
