👋 Hey I'm Jacquie, but who am I & why do you care? TBT to Build on Weekly Ep. 02 🫶✨

Bring back watching videos in public ✨ with headphones ✨🙏

Building in the year 2026: Start the morning browsing the latest supply chain attacks to see if your tool chain is impacted 🤞

@focusotter @auth0 @chris__sev Talk about a heavy hitting team 💪🎉

The @auth0 DevRel team is accepting challengers!

@focusotter @auth0 Enjoy!!

On my way to San Francisco for the first time for the @auth0 team offsite! If any friends want to meet up, hit me up!

I strongly believe there are entire companies right now under heavy AI psychosis and its impossible to have rational conversations about it with them. I can't name any specific people because they include personal friends I deeply respect, but I worry about how this plays out. I lived through the great MTBF vs MTTR (mean-time-between-failure vs. mean-time-to-recovery) reckoning of infrastructure during the transition to cloud and cloud automation. All those arguments are rearing their ugly heads again but now its... the whole software development industry (maybe the whole world, really). It's frightening, because the psychosis folks operate under an almost absolute "MTTR is all you need" mentality: "its fine to ship bugs because the agents will fix them so quickly and at a scale humans can't do!" We learned in infrastructure that MTTR is great but you can't yeet resilient systems entirely. The main issue is I don't even know how to bring this up to people I know personally, because bringing this topic up leads to immediately dismissals like "no no, it has full test coverage" or "bug reports are going down" or something, which just don't paint the whole picture. We already learned this lesson once in infrastructure: you can automate yourself into a very resilient catastrophe machine. Systems can appear healthy by local metrics while globally becoming incomprehensible. Bug reports can go down while latent risk explodes. Test coverage can rise while semantic understanding falls. Changes happens so fast that nobody notices the underlying architecture decaying. I worry.

@liran_tal Really is, but you’re so on top of it! I’m seeing your content everywhere today! You’re doing great & it’s much appreciated 🫶

@devopsjacquie Doing my best. Tough week :)

New day, new supply chain attack. Stay safe out there friends 🙏

TanStack was hit by a supply chain attack. MistralAI was hit by a supply chain attack. The Mayor of Arcadia, California, was a Chinese spy. Forza Horizon 6 leaked. Canvas bamboozled. Shai-Hulud open-sourced. Nightmare-Eclipse teases two new Windows 0days. It is Tuesday. What will happen on Wednesday? Find out on the next action packed episode of Dragon Ball Z

@taylor_atx @kevinswiber I heard 2016 is making a 2026 comeback 🙈

@kevinswiber what is this? 2016?

PSA: Don't scrape stargazer info from competitors' GitHub repos to fuel an outreach campaign promoting your own product. First of all, it doesn't work. Hitting the star is such a weak signal of interest. Secondly, it does significant harm to your reputation. It's spam, y'all. 🥫

CVE remediation is a dependency-graph problem. Scanning attempts to infer from built artifacts. Flox/Nix derive artifacts + runtimes from the causal dependency graph. Remediation = dbms lookup + declarative edit: identify artifacts/envs, pin a replacement ref, promote. Read more in the comments!

@ramonable @khushkhushkhush I miss you too! 💖 next time you’re near LA / OC let me know! I’ll let you know next time I’m Toronto 🫶 Also down for a virtual catch up, you’ve been killing it!

@devopsjacquie @khushkhushkhush I miss you!!!!

there’s a young woman in tech (very active on x) that i’ve looked up to for the better part of 3 years just very delightful internet presence, heard nothing but great things from other founders initially, clearly a titan of the industry met her irl a few months ago and she was so unimaginably rude to me that it encouraged me to forge my own path and work for myself. minutes before meeting her i would have set everything aside for her to be my boss such a shame, but i look up to her and think of her fondly nonetheless — would not have found my calling otherwise

@ramonable @khushkhushkhush It’s always so hit or miss 😮‍💨

@khushkhushkhush I find that whenever I meet my role models in irl, it’s been a letdown…esp influencers

@brooke_jamieson Haaaaaate this for you 💖 Couldn’t agree more. Have opinions, share them, but holy shit don’t threaten people’s lives over them

One of the most traumatic moments of my tech career was when someone followed me home from a tech event and tried to cut through my front door with a knife. Regardless of how you feel about AI please leave people’s homes alone

@blackgirlbytes Congrats!!!

Lolol all people in tech supported this idea. Most the ppl i know outside of tech pulled me aside to explain id be paying two mortgages. I know that already. How naive do yall think i am?😂😂 Anyways, offer accepted 😁😁 cant wait to close.

Supply chain security news usually creates anxiety, but this week there was some great news. GitHub Dependabot announced support for Nix Flakes, which will automate keeping a lot more software up-to-date. I love seeing the Nix ecosystem continuing to grow and thrive. #nixos

@TechByMarkandey @arsh_goyal Glad to hear! Let us know what you think 😊

@arsh_goyal Will be checking out flox. Looks very promising to me.

The #1 reason demos fail at hackathons isn't bad code but broken environments. I watched a team walk up, confident, excited, plugged in the laptop and their app crashes. "It was literally working 2 minutes ago." 10 minutes gone by debugging a simple dependency mismatch. Here's how to never let that happen 🧵

When did all these Pokemon games come out omg 🤯

@gwaldo No, I was at Disneyland for this one ☺️

@devopsjacquie Are you in town?

Here’s some lessons I learned parking at Disney about reproducibility and orchestration ✨ This post brought to you by 04/01 🎉
