So we’re clear:
The Supreme Court ended affirmative action yesterday by saying you CAN’T discriminate by helping a minority group, then turned around today and said you CAN discriminate by hurting them.

“Early interactions can be profoundly impactful in complex adaptive systems
Simple rules:
1) progress over perfection
2) be kind & candid
3) diversity is valuable”
These simple rules can and do lead to complex interactions and behaviours

Wow what a compliment. So glad you enjoyed it!
It's so validating and downright amazing to see talks like this reaching the mainstream tech leadership conferences. My favourite talk so far by .@thepreviewmode at #LeadDevLondon. #ResilienceEngineering #HumanFactors

Just attended an incredible talk by Winna Bridgwater @thepreviewmode from @syntasso at #LeadDevLondon! Winna highlighted the importance of embracing complexity in our organizations and provided insights on how to approach learning and recovering when our people systems fail. 🌟 – at London, England
What a great conference to be a part of! Fun from @devopsams continues. Unpacking while the girls pillage part of the sponsor stash @zesty_co @github @isovalent @contrastsec @Luminis_eu

.@kirederik and @thepreviewmode, both Principal Engineer at Syntasso, have not one but two sessions on platform building prepared for us. Just your jam? Join us in June: buff.ly/3JiygT2
People and events and crowds can be tiring for me, but I'm so so glad I had a chance to speak at #WTFisSRE yesterday -- lovely audience, great questions. @containersoli put on a fantastic conference, and I got to see old friends and meet new and interesting folks!
Worlds colliding in a good way. So nice to finally meet @CarlyLRichmond in real life yesterday at #WTFisSRE!

Platform engineering seems ready for a "maturity model." The talented crew at @syntasso took a swing at this, solicited industry feedback, and has now submitted this model to a CNCF working group.
Give it a read and add suggestions.

Life @syntasso building @kratixio continues to be full of adventures. Come to #WTFisSRE next week in London to hear about the week I imploded our team and how we recovered!
🎶Do you believe in life after... failure?
Speaking at the #WTFisSRE conference in May, @thepreviewmode will share how to foster a culture of blameless learning in her talk “Cultural post mortems: an approach to learning when your people systems fail”.

My fav #KubeConEU piece (so far) is this reflection of what motivates #OpenSource volunteers with @PaulaLKennedy @bongo @mattj_io @annalisag and Max Korbacher, backed by the excellent research of @biancatrink

Just went to a great session with @tom_geraghty on advanced psych safety, which included systems thinking. Yesterday's #rejects2023 talk from @lianmakesthings was top of mind for me. So many good ideas on teams as systems that you need to keep safe.
Watching @adrianamvillela and others talk standards, data, interoperability, and OTEL at #Rejekts2023

For @wsj to say flat out that SVB could have failed because they added non-white men to their board shows how far behind the times (and certifiably stupid) this publication really is. It makes me so angry and very sad. WSJ readers and staff deserve better.

A little over 3 years ago, on October 28, 2019, I pulled these training pants out of the box and paused before putting them on my 3yo daughter…
A thread 🧵
Looking forward to it. We'd love to see any familiar faces who are planning to attend!
@thepreviewmode and Jake Klein will guide you through an example of writing operators and show improvements to aspects like logging, requeuing, cleaning up, managing state, validation, ownership, and more.
