Randomly noting: if you're in the US, in April of 2024, the US will have a solar eclipse pass over a bunch of states for the first time in 7 years, and for the last time in *decades*.

It is an indescribably wonderful experience to be in the zone of totality. This article kinda covers it:. If you're not sure if you've seen one, you haven't. It's the most bizarre thing where it feels like someone flips a light switch and turns off the sky. https://www.space.com/37791-go-see-the-solar-eclipse-in-person.html

It is Ben and Em! These munchlings are looking for a home in the #Denver area.

If you knew someone looking for:
- an ops-y SRE role
- or an eng job that would take someone switching from ops-y SRE

And they hadn’t really worked with k8s yet (but have with other orchestrators across a mix of large scale onprem and cloud), where would you tell them to look?

I gave up over a 150,000 followers on Twitter to be on Mastodon full time. Yes, the engagement and reach is a lot less, but I'll build it back up and it will be worth it. I hate to see people run back to Twitter because of friends or careers or whatever. You know what changes that? Being on Mastodon and bring those people here. Musk is a horrible person, don't be one of his enablers.

If you happen to be in #Lexington, #Kentucky, maybe for #Keeneland, go and try J. Render's Southern Table and Bar. Absolutely great BBQ, the ribs are fantastic. Locally owned and operated, and absolutely worthy of your support.

Have a West Sixth IPA with it.

If you're still on the birdsite for whatever reason, instead of posting links to your tweets here, copy the link to your toots HERE and post them there. It drives traffic from there to here!

The birdsite continues its downward slide, I am rebuilding almost an decade's worth of relationships and connections here on Mastodon. If you see this, please boost.

The web browser is 30 years old today - NCSA Mosaic 1.0 released April 22, 1993

In response to critics who point out that college-admission testing exacerbates inequity, ACT's CEO said, Hey, we don't blame thermometers (or the health-care staff who use them) for reporting that a patient has a fever. Here's how @jonb replied to that analogy:

The government has been trying to sell off the Federal Helium Reserve for a few years now, but the sale has been on hold while they try to figure out how to explain this situation to buyers.

This account, full of anti-Semitic and racist garbage, is what gets a blue check on Elon Musk's Twitter.

Here’s a poem called On ‘;..p’[[[[[[[[[[[[[;’;////////////////////////3,’.

"Academic surveillance technology companies would like nothing more but for us all to shut up."
