   remembered my actual reason for wanting to post...
   
   I wonder how many of the leadership team got sent packing...?

   layoffs started this morning. only 30, it seems, but there was at least one typo (or omission) from the email, so hard to really know. I only know of one. I can't say I am surprised at the choice (although I liked the individuals). I'm safe, for now. They gave a very clear timeline and we are hours past the deadline. So, two reasons for posting: 1. If you know anyone in !minnes…

   only thing is, these people can vote. Might turn out to be some friendly fire come November.

   RE: Southern governors ending their states' lockdowns early
   
   Think back about 150 years: these states went to war to fight for the right to make people work without pay. Don't be surprised that they don't care about the people that live there. It's a "family tradition" for them.

   Does anyone have any #docker questions? I am trying to level up from proficient to expert and they say teaching is a great way to learn.

   I am taking the Docker path on Pluralsight and I just took the assessment. Better...but still not expert...so got to keep on truckin' It's weird. K8s uses docker and I got through the K8s path pretty quickly, but...I am struggling a bit on the docker stuff. I think it's because the docker test is more about syntax and the K8s test was more high-level, but it's been a couple of …

    #cooking I have exhausted Google I don't have the ingredients (or equipment in some cases) for any recipes with grapes (other than one smoothie recipe, but I am likely to run out of pears or blueberries before I run out of grapes). I put in a Target order for some supplies (like a sieve for making jam) but I think the grapes may need to go before the Target order arrives. Is th…

    Will be interesting to see what happens with this, considering I am supposed to go to DC in October:

    “As the entire US government works to combat the global pandemic, it is absolutely essential that key positions at relevant federal agencies are fully staffed, and we’re not allowing that to take place through our Congress,” Trump explained
    
    Wait, that seems coherent. Is this fake news?

    I've heard them advertise on podcasts, but don't know much about them. I assume that's where the name comes from: https://tidelift.com/

    @licho #Mastodon 3.x and #Pleroma 2x no longer speak the #OStatus federation protocol. !GNUsocial 2.0 will add the #ActivityPub federation protocol, so ask your admin to be ready to upgrade soon.

    #cooking
    
    I have the following I need to get rid of (and some other stuff):
    #grapes
    #saladmix
    #celery
    
    They don't all need to go in the same dish. The salad mix is easy, it is just a matter of time.
    
    Any suggestions?
    
    I did go #vegan, but we do have some #honey from before (we also have some #blueagave) that we should use up.

    seems to be everything scheduled, but it's weird that the OSCON site doesn't say anything about it.
