    Find confidence not in what you know but how you handle what you don't. If you have learned from and managed ambiguity and chaos, you are more than capable to take on the unknown challenges life throws at you.

    Reposting because this matters.

    I am so tired of people speaking about refugees as if they are violent. In the United States your chances of being killed by a refugee are 1 in 3.6 billion.(Cato Institute) , this means that statistically you are literally more likely to be killed by a vending machine.

    Human beings are social animals. What brings us together is love and affection—anger drives us apart. Just as we employ physical hygiene to protect our health, we need emotional hygiene, the means to tackle our destructive emotions, if we are to achieve peace of mind.

    Excellent point: I don't want ANYONE logging in to production. Ssh is an anti-pattern, even for ops. App developers, use your *instrumentation* as eyes and ears.

    We need to be determined to achieve positive change, and also be able to take a long view of what needs to be done. What is important is not to become demoralized. Optimism leads to success; pessimism leads to defeat. One person can be the source of inspiration for many others.

    I don’t think of myself just as a Tibetan or a Buddhist, but as a human being. We have to think of the whole of humanity. Being human is the common ground in our efforts to create a better world. Remember, we all survive in dependence on others.
