@Cloudflare I would like to voice my appreciation for @Cloudflare 's transparency and the speed at which they delivered this post-mortem. Outages happen, they suck, and they suck more when the provider doesn't communicate. Thanks for communicating @Cloudflare !

This is how you know you've watched too much Grey's Anatomy: Your daily affirmation looks like Dr. Shepard's pre-surgery mantra - "It's a beautiful day to save lives" -> "It's a beautiful day to build things"

Today I hang up my fedora as it is my last day as a Red Hatter and I am feeling all of the feels. Sad, excited, loved, anxious, everything. What a ride these 4+years have been!

I haven't posted on Twitter in a while. I've been trying to do things in this place called "outside"

This is one reason why I always advocate for conducting Architectural Impact Analysis, as well as to focus on interactions in Architectural Design. Such practices feed into threat modelling to understand risks and where to focus risk mitigation efforts.

Learning new keyboard layouts will teach you a lot about yourself, like how many times you can mistype a word before you finally use a different hand motion...

QWERTY -> Colemak -> Canary

The shrieks of joy from the Nerd Mafia just deflected another asteroid. Holy shit.

Just ordered my Steam Deck today! It took a year and 12 days since my reservation, but I finally received my purchase link. Hopefully it will be here in less than a week so I can take it with me on my road-trip :)

@WillingBlam , @LauraBaileyVO - You both look like you have some dice vault and tray that lets you prop up a tablet. It's hard for me to see on the stream what the exact table setup is. Mind sharing what you're using?
