Good morning 🌅
I added some items of flare to my laptop bag. Need more pins I think. As I am unlikely to put stickers on my new work laptop.

jimmysjolund,
@jimmysjolund@mastodon.social avatar

@popey Yeah, you probably want at least 15 pieces of flair.

One year ago, I started a bi-weekly nerdy podcast with a few friends called Linux Matters. The goal was to make a show for our wider circle of Linux nerds who like to hear what we've been up to every couple of weeks. We just released episode 27, where we read and discussed feedback we've received since we last looked in the 'mailbag'. 🧵

The (Free and Open Source Software) ecosystem is a with 3 stars called Share, Learn and Adapt surrounding each other in unpredictable patterns. Depending on your point of view, the positions of the three stars change in seemingly erratic ways, but it is a very stable system, that continues to evolve and move us all forward. In this TED talk ...

@jwildeboer Isn't there a fourth star for time/money/sustainability? Probably many great projects have disappeared as people building it couldn't keep doing it in only their free time. The funding problem.

@jwildeboer Sounds interesting! When and where is your keynote?

I never used any of the modern AI tools for writing code, copilot etc. I'm old. Traditional. Using emacs. And I write my code manually - like a cave man.

@bagder And got your code to Mars. So there's that. 😆

Omg guys

If we stop working from home they’ll give us Walking Meetings 👏👏

@jimmysjolund@mastodon.social avatar

@Daojoan If I'm not paid for my lunch time I rather spend it how I want. Usually by walking my dog. I could probably squeeze in a meeting there too. But then you need to pay me.

sure signs you’re dealing with a boomer:

2: they use hashtags

@Daojoan There's no way my dad would use hashtags.

It takes 12,000 plays on Spotify for a band to make the same as you buying one of their T-shirts.

jimmysjolund,
@jimmysjolund@mastodon.social avatar

@killyourfm Yes. But without Spotify (and Discover Weekly) I wouldn't have discovered so many great artists these years so I could go to those concerts and buy the t-shirts. And vinyl. And hats. At least for me, I need both.

Today is an acid test of my plan to give up motor vehicles and use ebikes for my transport needs. It's November, it's cold, it's raining, I'm depressed, I need to take a load of rubbish into the recycling centre at Castle Douglas, a 40 Km round trip.

This is going to be tough.

    Team Topologies (the book) is 4 years old! We had TT-coloured celebration cake 🍰 at our core team meeting 🤩

    Layer cake with 4 layers: yellow, purple, orange, blue. The Team Topologies Logo is printed on a cake topper in the background.

    YouTube tells me the gender distribution of the audience watching the videos I post there.

    Let's just say that it is a little uneven... 😕

    Conference organizers: Let's give lots of time for people to submit their talks to our CFP

    Speakers: we only submit talks on the last day of CFP

    🥴

    jimmysjolund,
    @jimmysjolund@mastodon.social avatar

    @mariatta Yes, but I work on my pitch throughout the entire time. What's really hard is when conferences need to have the final presentation weeks in advance. Excuse me, I will update my slides until I get on stage.

    Regarding “back to the office”: Why is the commute the employee’s burden anyway? Make it part of the work time and have at it requiring people to come to the office. Three hours commute? You get 5 hours in the office.

    Employees are available immediately at home but if they’ve required in the office, the clock starts when they leave home. You rent their time, your choice to spend it on travel.

    jimmysjolund,
    @jimmysjolund@mastodon.social avatar

    @finestructure Another favorite is "Lunch hour is your free time. But don't you dare leave the office."
