Resilience Engineering claims a system can manage brittleness trade-offs by reflecting on how well it is adapted, adapted to what, and environmental changes underway. With this knowledge, managers can target investment to increase resilience. researchgate.net/publication/28…

Today I came here specifically to tweet some public applause to DigitalOcean 'cos they did something fantastic. But Twitter swallowed the messages. "Interact with tweets more so we know you're human. Then we'll let you @-message others." Hmm. Prolly won't try again. (shakes head)

@digitalocean @github Hey, @digitalocean Do you have a presence on mastodon anywhere? I'd like to give you another trophy over in that community.

@digitalocean sent me a FANTASTIC email explaining just the right amount of context for why I got a different email from @github. Fantastic work! Here's a trophy! 🏆

Last year @dobbse wrote a short piece on the definition of Resilience for an internal blog that greatly influenced my thinking and learning path. I'm pleased he's now released a public version. Give it a read! dobbse.net/thinair/2023/0…

合氣道 Aikido for a Hijacked Retro lfi.wiki.dbbs.co/-aikido-for-a-… Practice is the only path to skill. Elephant in the room is Fear. Similar to what I shared about aikido and incident facilitation at #LFIConf23 (it was in the incident stories track and therefore wasn't recorded).

Y'all. It's been (mostly) fun hanging around with you here. Today Twitter showed me two offensive tweets "I might like"—too close to that can't unsee territory. I'm not gonna stick around to see it get worse.

@dobbse @allspaw @ri_cook An old joke my dad likes to tell: guy walks in to a Navy recruitment office in order to enlist. The Naval recruiter asks: “do you know how to swim?” The guy responds “I know the theory”.

The Care Work at Work—Resilience in Software panel discussion at #lficonf23 was not recorded. Keep your eyes out for brilliant threads like this one from @v_hue_g. A lot of dudes who look like me have some skills to develop. Care work is software engineering.

Vanessa Huerta Granda@v_hue_g

Coming out of the #LFIConf23 I feel energized! I got to participate in 2 panels and since those were not recorded I wanted to share thoughts on the success or failures of LFI and being a woman in resilience. (1/)

Prevention is not the only benefit we get from incident retros. Insight about faster recovery or improved collaboration is hugely beneficial even when we identify areas where the complexity defies prevention.

I genuinely hated my high school typing class, also on mechanical keyboards. But it was one of the most valuable things I learned.

Prediction: someday we're going to have a shared incident between our companies. The relationships we are nurturing now with intention and care will be the key to our successful adaptation.

"But my experience with build systems (not just Javascript build systems!), is that if you have a 5-year-old site, often it’s a huge pain to get the site built again." My experience too. Tools, esp. build tools, also frequently conceal important knowledge about their ecosystems.

@brent_chapman, @grtcrcl thank you so much for ensuring we can preserve and share what we've learned this week. Cannot overstate what a gift that is to history.

Brent Chapman@brent_chapman

Proud that my firm, Great Circle Associates @grtcrcl, is sponsoring all the recordings at the first Learning From Incidents Conference, next week in Denver! Plan is to share the recordings on YouTube shortly afterwards. You can still join us! tinyurl.com/grtcrcl-lficon… #LFIConf23
