I'm looking for my next full time engineering role. Do you need an awesome senior/staff platform/devops/infra engineer, with strong technical and sociotechnical skills?

I like
* dark haunted codebases
* building the tools, automation and capacity for frequent deploys to prod
* mentoring jr & mid-lvl engineers into leaders

I'm looking for:
* kind & respectful teammates
* remote
* lots of async collaboration
* good benefits
* a do-great-work then go-have-family-time culture

pls boost

I strongly believe that any software engineering methodology where one set of people makes tickets and a different set of people executes those tickets is deeply flawed.

This only makes sense for super straightforward IT or operational tasks.

PMs and Product people will proudly proclaim they are insulating dev from boring ticket work when they are really distancing devs from delivering value. Sometimes so they can claim that success themselves.

The only way ChatGPT will take your job is if your job is being a boring copywriter who also writes buggy code.

Setting up Buildkite. I always find myself in the situation where the setup is slightly different from the ideal path and/or what’s available in the standard docs.

Makes for good SEO when writing a blog post 😅

UPDATE: Here's the latest chart.

We're now at 14,000 new users joining per hour.

By the end of the night, we might have 7 million Mastodon users.

@roy @appsignal @james I have two accounts tho. One for general things. This one for Ruby.

I can imagine even employees can use their employer-provided account for tooting in the progressional sphere. And then use another for personal things.

@Xiy @Sandbagger ah! Gotya! Since moving to Tailwind we work utility-based without the need of writing our own CSS. No custom CSS so also no need for BEM.
@Xiy Do you mean why did we do BEM or why we’ve dropped it?
