I'm Stoked! Tuesday. #KubeCon. 6:40pm during KubeCrawl. Come On Down to the CVE Price Is Right at the @chainguard.dev booth with me and @adrianmouat.com, seeing who can guess the closest (but not over!) the CVE count of popular open source project images for prizes #DevOps #DevSecOps #Sponsored

It's a CVE elimination party 🎉. Sign up for my next #DevOps learning live stream, where @smalls.xyz and I are migrating real-world popular open-source #container images to @chainguard.dev container images to cut the #CVE count, hopefully to zero! Next Wednesday learn.bretfisher.com/chainguard-e...

I'm looking for my next thing, and I need to move fast. I have several years of experience in developer relations from startups to the enterprise, and I'm particularly skilled at distilling complex topics into something easily understood by newbies and non-technical folks alike, on stage or off. 1/3

What's the fastest way to lose me as a customer? Tell me I have to change banks to continue to use your completely redundant payments app.

Excellent rebuttal by @climatetown.bsky.social about the LandMan clip people are ignorantly referring to as if it weren’t complete fiction. youtu.be/wBC_bug5DIQ?...

Congratulations, plaudits, bouquets and a well earned pat on the back to all of the “Lets-teach-a-lesson-to-Genocide-Joe” activists; and a hearty well-done for the MAGA folks who railed against endless wars. Because what’s more America First than this, my good lads? open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

If more Christians acted and spoke like this, maybe their religion wouldn't be filled with so many hypocrites. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/maga-chris...

Assuming this is limited to episodic shows, the YT algorithm picked this one for me most recently. I think I'm in trouble.

Containers Pro Tip: You can inspect the rootfs on any container image, including viewing textual files, by simply opening a URL like: ima.ge.cx/docker.io/library/nginx

Hey @electrek.co , your blocker footer taking up 1/3 of the screen makes me actively hate your site more and more. I’m not going to turn off adblocking on my devices nor the PiHole on my network just to read a story. Figure out a better way to monetize.

@lenny-linux.bsky.social shared this with me today and I am a better human because of it! youtu.be/yup8gIXxWDU?...

New blog on "Building Multiarch Images with Chainguard Images". I talk about the growing importance of supporting ARM64 images and the various techniques for building multiplatform images). AI art didn't let me down (you're burning money if you're using QEMU!) www.chainguard.dev/unchained/bu...

Some jackass in an F-150 at the Home Depot parking lot hit my car & ran while I was shopping yesterday. Thankfully a witness had me paged and gave me info for the insurance claim & possible police report if needed Fortunately it’s cosmetic but I’m guessing the bumper is going to have to be replaced

Cleaning up and upgrading the home network “closet” this week. Migrating from an old USG + CloudKey 2 to a UDM Pro and putting it all in a 9U rack enclosure. Got the “spousal approval” factor because it will unclutter her side of the closet 😉 “Before” pictures attached.

Test post, plz ignore. Dusting off my old Buffer count, testing new Threads and BlueSky integrations.

Saw this and immediately thought of @kat.lol 😎

After a year+ of deleting all content from it and stopping use of my old Twitter account, I finally deactivated it. It's not getting any better over there so there's no use in hanging onto that handle.

AT&T is finally offering 2 and 5 Gbps service in my area now! I would have to upgrade my wiring and network equipment to take advantage of this, so I won't be upgrading any time soon, but it's good to know the infrastructure has the headroom to support it.

Sub-zero degree Ketel One with garlic stuffed olives and a ton of brine. I think I’ve passed the “slutty” level of this dirty martini. What comes after “slutty”? It’s glorious, BTW.

One week later and I think Charlie it fitting in.

Fresh from our team in Japan... Anime Patch! https://youtu.be/iwOhVnhtCAY

Got blocked by someone b4 5 am this morning on my neighborhood FB group after I told them to "relax" in response to comments that an outage was due to our power co-op "California-ing" us with rolling blackouts🙄 I count being blocked that early as a win!

The best description of bitcoin I've ever seen is this one-liner

Part of the soundtrack of my youth just passed away. 😥 RIP Tina Turner

TIL Peter Jurasik (Londo Mollari from #Babylon5) was Crom in #TRON! I've watched that movie at least 20 times and am a huge B5 fan but I never realized this. Now, I'm sad he didn't have a bigger part!

I've been writing a series of blog posts on Container Security fundamentals for a little while now, looking at the various mechanisms that containers use to limit access and how they work. The next part is out now. https://securitylabs.datadoghq.com/articles/container-security-fundamentals-part-4/

It appears the Roy Kent chant is, indeed, accurate. He is every-f’ing-where. https://youtu.be/0xMSrh46H8A

Thanks for the invite @juliafmorgado.bsky.social !
