Ms 7 wanted to join a meeting and the meeting owner said sure, if she brought an agenda. So she came back with this.
It's fairly universal. Feel free to use it for your own meetings.

- Don't solve problems with software that should be solved with talking.
- After several attempts to stop paying AWS 80c every month I spent an hour searching the console and finally found the stray service I hadn't deleted. And I was *sure* I had it this time until... I just got an AWS bill for 23c. This thing is the goddamn Hotel California.
- Hey, so, I've been a bit shy about announcing this, but I'm writing a book! It's called the Staff Engineer's Path. It is, not surprisingly, about Staff Engineering! I'm really excited about it 🤩 Want to read some? The intro and first chapter are here:
- me, an infrastructure person, writing javascript
- I've been doing unix nerdery for 18 years and I just found out that dmesg -T will display human readable timestamps. OMG.
- From a slack I'm on. It's hours later and I'm still laughing. (But seriously, industry, we need to fix this.)
- Oh wow, Stanford's CS106A and CS106B are back online for free. These courses changed my life a decade ago when unix-sysadmin-me decided it was time to go beyond scripting. Highly recommended if you're a not-really-coder who wants to be a coder. see.stanford.edu/Course
- Your staff-plus engineers are your engineering culture. You get more of whatever you promote.
- I bought an electric bike and, in case you're wondering whether an electric bike is the best thing ever, I can confirm: it is the best thing ever. 🤩
- me: I'm envious of people who can just talk without tons of preparation. I have to decide in advance exactly what words I'm going to say or it comes out as a horrible mess. @ckymnstr: it's ok, you're a compiled language, not an interpreted language. I feel so vindicated.
- "Pretty sure I understand the tradeoffs in distributed databases, but I'll read about consistency models and make sure it's solid." Three hours pass. "*gesturing wildly* Consistency is LIES! Causality is UNKNOWABLE. Time... time is a HALLUCINATION. ARE WE REAL? HELP ME 😱💀"
