@huima Admittedly not my original idea, though I cannot remember where I got it from 😅 Thank you though!

@BlakeBisset I just finished making dinner, so I'll be free after about 7pm local time. Let me DM you for some easier coordination!

@madplatt It was fun chatting with you, and as an ex-CISO with similar viewpoints, thank you for bringing this narrative out into the world! 😀

@Julie_Gund @ksatirli @kristinaga I was wondering what brings you to Amsterdam until a coworker just pointed me towards the DevOps Amsterdam meetup for tonight. Guess who has last-minute evening plans now?

@pradyunsg can I just say thank you for the Furo Sphinx theme? This is by far one of the highest-quality themes for Sphinx I've come across.

New blog post about why circuit breakers may not solve your problems: https://t.co/5oauGf6SHk (and why they're hard to make compatible with modern distributed systems design practices).

@ugatc So nice to hear this, glad it helped you!

@vectordotdev I'm able to confirm that works! ✔

In case it's useful to any fellow @elixirlang devs, I recently created a short overview of the different ways you can write CLI scripts in Elixir. https://t.co/6uRGaP9UkT

@odix67 @josevalim That's not entirely correct. It doesn't matter whether your company is based in the EU or not. What matters is whether you process personal data of EU residents. US companies processing data on EU residents fall under the GDPR just the same

@mikebarkmin I have one more new feature coming up today (desktop notifications), after that I think I'm done scratching this itch of mine. 😀

[Nick Groenen @NickGroenen]

@mikebarkmin I really appreciate all the work you've put into https://t.co/Cqas8Cnsiu. Saved me a lot of time needing to implement something similar myself 😄 Ran into some setup issues though, left some PR goodies with fixes

[Nick Groenen @NickGroenen]

@a_hoverbear Any chance it could be this? https://t.co/reo3gUpgiv

@true_nl Jullie #netwerkstoring die vannacht rond ca. 01:40 is begonnen lijkt inmiddels opgelost te zijn, maar op https://t.co/XH5h7jeQjg geen woord hierover.

Kan ik 'm aan onze kant (https://t.co/h3HkWRZHpq) inmiddels met een gerust hart afmelden en weer gaan slapen?

I'm stepping down as the Chief Information Security Officer for Castor so I can focus on my core interest again (yes we're hiring now). This article reflects on the decision and explores the future that lies ahead. https://t.co/f9Tirg3tV6

@penberg @rustlang Thanks for this! Writing that post took a lot of time, energy and research, but it's so rewarding to hear from people who found it helpful!

Today I released v0.5.0 of obsidian-exporter, my Rust library and CLI program to export an @obsdmd vault to plain Markdown.

This is the biggest update since open sourcing this project about a month and a half ago. https://t.co/TZdb7BwJWw
