RIP TravisCI. A community-backed startup that commoditized CI/CD in the GitHub era, giving it free to open source, & playing a huge part in shaping the industry we find today.

It was an incredible group of people who built that together. Still proud to be a #TravisAlum Putting a top-level yml file in the repo to define your build and pipeline? I'm pretty sure that idea started with @svenfuchs : and the entire cottage industry that tamed that for K8s, for better or worse.

YAML engineers have Travis to thank for first thinking of it.

Real talk on the burnout many of us living in the US are feeling days before this election. The burnout we feel isn't tied to work, but the political and social environment we've been swimming in the past four years, and particularly this year. (THREAD) 1/ The best, most concise description of burnout is found in Mary's tweet:

Burnout is a response to repeated attempts to make meaningful change while lacking the agency to do so. See problems > try to fix them > get shot down or ignored. 2/

30 mins ago in Rochester NY, rains parted at the golden hour of sunset during peak foliage to create the most magical rainbow-sunset-autumn combination I've seen. This is a thread of all the rainbow photos that followed from all over the area. For any who need magic about now.

We've been at an inflection point for software development. The bazaar of 1999 is not the bazaar of 2019.

"Good programmers know what to write. Great ones know what to rewrite (and reuse)"
But that was when there were a smaller set of reusable things to choose from /1 We live in a different world now. We reuse things based on the number of github stars or number of downloads.
Our velocity is faster than it ever has been. "Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow" model doesnt work for dependency mamagement attacks. /2

A bunch of talented, amazing people from Travis will be looking for jobs soon. People who mentored me in: Bash, Go, Ruby. They built stuff with K8s, Hashi, worked on scaling, observability. Know cloud APIs like the back of their hands. /1 Some know the skinny on dozens of different open source projects and ecosystems, others understand run time and dep mgmt for like 17 languages and even more tooling, and automated image mastering to handle it all. /2

A thread about representation:

I'm a @NotreDame alum. I love my alma mater, & every season I cheer for my beloved #FightingIrish in multiple sports. But one day 7 years ago, a question came from my 7-year old daughter that changed how I look at things forever You see, we (my husband @Professor_Andoh also attended ND... twice over for both undergrad + grad) have tons of #NDAthletics merchandise. Hats, T-shirts, sweats, sandals, scarves. You name it. And we bought much of this in pint sizes for our kids... a proper indoctrination.
