I originally did this photogrid thing when I turned 20 and I've since updated it every 5 years. Forgot to do it last year when I turned 35, so a year late now, but then again I'm thinking of staying as a 35-year-old as 36 is too close to 40 😅

Thought Leaders: "Programming will be obsolete within 5 years. All business software will be generated by AIs"

Actual Businesses: "actually we're mainly still on-premise, running on Windows Server 2003 and VBScript ASP, but our two-year plan to migrate everything into a cloud kicked off in 2015 and we're making steady progress."

After working as a Software Developer for 14 years now, Scaled Agile / SAFe / Enterprise Agile is the best methodology I have seen if your plan is to burn out your teams as fast as possible.

Combining short sprints with long-term-planning while taking away autonomy from the team is not agile, it is just a lot of unmovable fucking deadlines in short succession.

As the year draws to a close people reflect the year in various ways, for me 2022 was all about live music: Totaling 80 live shows altogether!

I really truly think a social media hack is enthusiasm.

People (maybe a majority) follow me on Twitter who have no career focus on computer security.
I follow farmers on YouTube just talking about their tractor repair tribulations with perseverance. I will absolutely never drive a tractor or put any direct tractor knowledge they give me into practice. But I care because they communicate larger fundamental insights into finding solutions.

This is a magic ingredient. You can't really fake it. And people know when they see it. It's one of those inescapably human manifestations the brain recognizes micro-signals from.

I just had to… couldn’t resist myself.

#Github #IPv6

Screenshot of Github (the company) on LinkedIn post asking ”Whatis Github? Wrong answers only.”

Me replying with: “A service that supports IPv6. (Okay, I get it, you're working on it, but it's 2022 - soon 2023 - so you deserve the burn!)”

But at this point if you’re still using LastPass, that’s pretty much asking for trouble.
