asked my friend who's visiting Seoul to check Myeongdong for this bag I got YEARS ago that fell apart - didn't have any front-facing photos of it, but chatgpt to the rescue!!

(it's not exactly the bag, but it's close enough!)

❓If you have the chance to win one of the two books at KubeCon + Cloud Native Con EU London 2025, which one would you want most?

Kubernetes or Docker in a visual day?

Do you want to learn more and talk about what's happening to technology in the U.S. government? About what 18F and the U.S. Digital Service did, and what happens next?

“The DOGE shitshow: what happened, and what comes next” is my next Hallway Track this Friday.

You should know that a big part of 18F's work was to make sure multi-million to multi-*hundreds*-of-millions dollar contracts at fed *and* state level didn't go to shitty enterprise IT consultancies that *repeatedly* delivered tech that didn't work, was late, or didn't even do what it needed to

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people:

I wrote about Musk and this bureaucratic coup as plainly as I could. There's reporting in here & the particulars are overwhelming but what's happening is so clear: He's not trying to run the federal govt like a software company He's trying to turn it into a political weapon. (gift link)

Sometimes life comes full circle in the most beautiful ways ✨

My father hosted "Voix du Pakistan" on CBC in the 70s, connecting communities through conversation. Now I host
@gitlab.com 's #MondayMerge, connecting developers through code.

Like father, like daughter 💕🥹
An old sepia photo of Fatima's father, sitting in at recording studio desk for CBC's Voix du Pakistan (Voice of Pakistan). A selfie taken by Fatima in her office, close to the lens is her DLSR recording camera and her microphone. She's smiling and wearing her signature headphones, behind her the lights on the wall are lit up in GitLab colors.
