The good news is, I'm immediately available for software engineering work. Go, Rust, Ruby. Nix, Kubernetes. Remote, or Pasadena. Please RT for reach, and thank you.

If you cared this much about immigrants, then you wouldn't have contracts w/Palantir & ICE. It's disingenuous! I've pulled all my repos off Github until you do so & am happily using @gitlab! I will continue to sound this alarm. #NoTechForICE

Hi! I tweeted this a few days ago, but I'm posting again cause my friend Leah Ann Mitchell has now been admitted to the hospital for COVID-19 and really needs support. If you have resources, and I know some of you techies do, please donate. gofundme.com/f/help-an-leah-… via @gofundme
At @OctahedroidHQ we have been kinda busy working with #WordPress and triggering #GatsbyJS builds with #CircleCI. Does this sounds like a good candidate for a contributed plugin?

Genius. They wrote a script to make a PDF look like it's printed, signed, and then scanned again. Because digital signatures are still not accepted in many places while a signed and scanned printout is. This is hacking bureaucracy. I love it! gitlab.com/edouardklein/fals…

Every one of your friends and every member of your family that is not self isolating right now is extending your time self isolating and endangering people’s lives. Don’t put up with it.

Uh, don't US gov websites have to be accessible? "To use the 2020 Census site, it is necessary to enable JavaScript." Which doesn't even show. Cause the css sets visibility hidden. @uscensusbureau Progressive enhancement, anyone?

An anonymous question has arisen! "My company is looking to migrate to @awscloud. They want someone to help with the project management side, but the role states 'familiar with AWS.' I'm not; what do I need to learn?" A thread...

Our tech team worked hard to make getting involved with @ewarren's campaign as easy as possible. We leaned heavily on open source technology , and we want to contribute back. So we're open-sourcing some of our most important projects for anyone to use. medium.com/@teamwarren/open-…

With 700k+ #drupal7 sites out there, surely there are people/agencies maintaining one or more who'd rather be working on #drupal8 sites. I can help you take care of those D7 sites. Hit me up. Please RT for reach.

The decomposing monolith at pager duty session is def a highlight for me at #SCaLE17x

While “not all men!” is indeed the rallying cry of some of the worst people on the internet, it’s also a baseline requirement for a conference keynote panel as well. #SCaLE17x

But the fact of the matter is that this distribution is just not easy to deal with.

If the upgrades were fixed would your opinion change?

The amount of time lost sifting through all the issue queue, and mucking around is honestly an immense dealbreaker at this point. I recognize there are folks that contribute to this product and I apologize that this comes off as an attack on them...

Have to vent on this. The lightning distribution for Drupal is absolute trash. Upgrades between versions are broken. Do not use. Period.
