We are investigating unauthorized access to GitHub’s internal repositories. While we currently have no evidence of impact to customer information stored outside of GitHub’s internal repositories (such as our customers’ enterprises, organizations, and repositories), we are closely monitoring our infrastructure for follow-on activity.

I recently turned 33, and every year I want to go back to 21-year-old Patrick with a list of lessons. If you're in your 20s, these are for you. Most lessons only land after an ass-whooping. And even then, you usually miss them the first time.

LinkedIn is not real. I made a joke about calling myself and idiot, and using that to fuel you to keep learning, and I was flagged for harassing people. Amazing.

Weighting every opinion equally feels democratic; it isn't useful. Next year, I'll have more, because I feel like I've learned a lot every year. And finally, this isn't a lesson I learned this year, but it's my bonus parting gift👇
