Most of us who work on heavily used systems at scale saw this one coming, and that they would propose a rewrite as they just have, and we also don’t think this is the answer. This is why hubris is a very counterproductive quality in engineering. Why do we all agree on this?

George Hotz: Resigned from Twitter today. Appreciate the opportunity, but I didn't think there was any real impact I could make there. Besides, ti was sad to see my GitHub withering. Back to coding!

A few people have asked why have my own version of linktree or a shortener for individual links? Imagine a site doesn't like you to link to other social media profiles. They even follow http 301 and 302 redirects. This uses JavaScript to redirect after the page loads. No block.

GitHub - Damovisa/to: JS redirect for social media

Dec 20

I did a thing! Super simple site deployed on GitHub Pages to (js) redirect to your socials: github.com/damovisa/to You can point people at the /to URL for all of them, or something like (for example) damovisa.github.io/to/mastodon for a link to a specific social site.

JS redirect for social media. Contribute to Damovisa/to development by creating an account on GitHub.

Surely the best way to win hearts and minds is to artificially cripple the competitors and lie about the reasons, right?

I'm not going to post the whole thing (it's long) but it's disturbingly thing real-sounding. Almost none of it is true, but if you knew me as "that Australian DevOps guy I saw at a conference once" it would be entirely reasonable to take it all as fact. Scary.

#dddbne is the only tech conference I go to where there’s a line up in the women’s bathroom! 🎉

Okay let's get sentimental: Who is someone you met #onhere who helped you in some way? Mine is @billbarnwell. If I didn't meet him 10+ years ago, there's no way I'd be doing what I do now for a living. Truly cherish his friendship and advice.
