...the challenge is projects tend to be a "do-cracy" as in people who show up and do the work get influence... the only thing we've found that really helps with improving diversity over time is multiple products/vendors based on upstream and mentorships www.cncf.io/blog/2024/11...

Getting some last minute supplies at @wholefoods365.bsky.social and let someone cut in front of me in line since they had far fewer items. She handed me a gift card on her way out to say thank you. Thank you kind person 🙏 Made my day. 🎄

I also loved this talk!

@illumi.meme I’m still stuck at how they actually ran into each other - that’s trauma. I’m so sorry for your brother. 💔 and your loss as well. Time only attempts to dim.

every boxing movie is basically about this transformation

I don’t know Derek but I ❤️ Derek

I’ll trade you the IRS 😓 Hope you can negotiate that bill down..

I just did my first interview with a journalist about Bluesky and the AT Protocol. I'm finally at the point where I can talk confidently about this stuff and see enough potential to genuinely be optimistic about the future.

Last night I had a dream I was using Bluesky on a Pip Boy.

Holy shit I might actually release this.

Awww! You caught him! Happy bday ❤️

That’s their occupation. Don’t take their jobs!

He’s a cat… don’t judge

Happy birthday!! 😻

Having a ‘What We Do in the Shadows’ watch/binge party on Saturday for Season 6. (No spoilers!!)

Most important question: which Nadja should I dress up as? 🧛‍♀️

This site has launched with two great examples and several in the queue! Is there a reference architecture or cloud native pattern YOU want to share? Anything that can be made more clear? PRs welcome!

FYI - The cncf has an official account on bsky now - @cncf.io
Nothing posted yet, but will in the future 👍

I have created a Bluesky list bsky.app/profile/did:... for CNCF Ambassadors. If you are one of the approximately 250 members, please reply to this post so I can find you and add you.

Great quote from @karenaangell.bsky.social at the KubeCon “Tick TAG TOC” talk: “if we don’t identify the processes we can’t automate them away”.

Love to meet @karenaangell.bsky.social in her hometown SLC ❄️❄️❄️ at #KubeConNA
