Mark Mansour

Yesterday I published a video on my YT channel that highlights a few articles and are a MUST READ for everyone interested in CI/CD! Thank you, @clare_liguori, @martinfowler , @davefarley77 , Sandeep and @markmansour for sharing your knowledge! youtu.be/0fgBFwCXEgo

Can ChatGPT be useful for giving feedback? Let’s try! TL;DR Yes. It doesn’t replace good coaching, but I’ve seen worse than this from actual humans… If you want some templates to start with or are stuck for ideas this is a fantastic place to start.

My team builds tools to synchronize identity information between identity datastores. It can be challenging to build a service that will integrate with Azure AD, so we've launched a SCIM validator scimvalidator.microsoft.com so customers can test their server for compatibility.

It's been a while since I posted. About a year ago I joined Microsoft's Identity group, now known as Entra. When talking about work, it will be less about Continuous Delivery and DevOps and more about Identity and Security. Which leads me to my next post...

@chrismunns @awscloud Congrats Chris. That's a huge milestone.

@martinjandrews Congrats!🎉🎈🎊🍾

I’m incredibly proud and grateful to have played a significant part in the journey that led us to this point. Thank you so much to everyone who has been part of the team or worked with us as a customer. I’ll be watching fondly and cheering you all on from the sidelines.

@saeedwkhan I couldn’t agree more! Plans are absolutely necessary. As it adapting to new information. I’ve seen this be a huge struggle for engineering teams that get frustrated that they get pulled out of execution mode rather than thinking in small iterations.

Probably the MOST abused and thus harmful principle of the #Agile Manifesto is: "Responding to change over following a plan" Here's a thread 🧵on how to think about it in logical and rational way, that hopeful removes whatever confusion people have. #product #prodmgmt 1/n

@alolita @Apple That’s exciting. Good luck!

👋 I'm hiring. Product Managers in developer tools areas. Remote is okay but US locations only. The team is in the .NET developer tools areas which serves the .NET ecosystem from languages/compilers all the way through to Visual Studio family of products. More in this 🧵 1/4

@nedwin When you look that good, does it really matter?

An east-facing office might have been a mistake.

@fjakobs Wow. That’s big news. Good luck with whatever you decide to do next.

I’m leaving Amazon but Amazon will ever leave me. I won’t be able to write software and not think about security first I will never not care about operations I expect to cringe each time someone brings a PowerPoint to a meeting I will continue to quote Amazon leaders

Never Take Crypto's Name in Vein

This is the most basic argument against crypto that I tell all the people who call me. The tech doesn't work, and the fundamental idea is ahistorical and flawed. Writing it down so I don't have to repeat myself all the time. The Case Against Crypto stephendiehl.com/blog/against-c…

We don’t need everyone to upgrade log4j, just enough for herd immunity to takeover

To add on to what @dildog is referencing with AWS vars and log4j Here is a list of the AWS envs that I've seen attackers attempt to dump from the target machine docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/use…

The Corretto team at AWS has been working on a mechanism to hotpatch the log4j RCE from CVE-2021-44228. github.com/corretto/hotpa… Use at your own risk. Thanks to @volker_simonis for spending days, nights, and the weekend to harden this, aalong with the rest of the team.

@edyesed @bernardjgardner This is definitely a thing and they’re delicious, savory goodness. You can pick up vegemite at world food market.

⁦@bernardjgardner⁩ I want to believe… Is this an actual thing? Found on a box of frozen puff pastry

@0x4641 Oh wow. Congrats!

Rise and shine 🤞🙏
