How in the heck did that happen so quickly? I just finished my eighth Orbit around the Sun with @RedHat today. It's been a great ride, and I can't wait for the next lap!

@ChrisShort Tax law/rules/regs in the US is like an overgrown garden of weeds. It needs to be rethought and simplified greatly. I spent at least 20 hours getting stuff to our CPA, & he spent 4+ hours on it. We bought/sold a house, and had some stock investments, it shouldn't be that hard.

[Life at Red Hat @RedHatJobs]

In honor of @PaulJCormier's retirement from @RedHat after 24 years, @MattHicksJ shares some lasting lessons learned to guide us all:

Work for the future you want.
Take risks and trust your gut.
We are stronger together.

Read on and celebrate Paul's incredible impact: https://t.co/xaOE8YdHWo

A few changes in Podman v5.0 can cause some gotchas. Paul Holzinger shows you the breaking changes between the Podman v4.0 and v5.0 environments in this article:

@mairin @kbsingh Yikes! That will be a fun story someday, I'm sure, but certainly not in the moment. Very scary! Glad to hear it turned out OK in the end, but ZOINKS! 😨

[Matt Hicks @matthicksj]

Arguably more than any other Red Hatter, @PaulJCormier is responsible for the direction of our product portfolio and the position the company is in today. Paul, thank you for everything. Enjoy your retirement with your family on the cape—it's been well-earned.

[Tom Sweeney 🏐 @TSweeneyRedHat]

My 7th orbit around the sun was completed today while a Red Hatter. It's gone by in a flash! On to the next 7 or more! @RedHat

Lots of noise about `CVE-2024-21626 runc container escape`. As long as you have SELinux enabled, the container processes are blocked from reading sensitive data and writing all data. Podman enables SELinux by default and defaults to rootless mode.
