The journey starts with:
1. Technology
2. Product
3. Experience
4. Credibility
Then eventually it flips, priorities move bottom up.
Don’t rush, it all happens.
All in good time - with faith…

You walk with a chip on your shoulder and surprised why you’re struggling to cash that out…
Going against the game, you soon learn that the house always wins ♠️

Some things you can’t teach. Okes think they have it figured out.
I hope the whole of GP heard him! 😅

Use --vm
It’s simpler to communicate and honest to what it is. It’s shorter, too

internet, I need some naming help.
we have a class of VM that starts faster, is less durable, and ultimately cheaper. the internal word is "ephemeral."
but lots of people call low durability VMs a "sandbox".
what should we call them?

We gave the ZaTechRadio a new .com address.
The rent is digital, the mission is the same, and the archive is online.
The playbook lives: zatechradio.com

It’s a super power to come into an organisation and create clarity; to bring hope…
Hearing the client say, “We’ve been walking blind til you came” is quite fulfilling - could never hear it enough times.
No matter what happens, in the end, shapa spaan sa dlala dlala too much 🤝🏾

Similar story, but with me it was seeing my bro with a black card back in 2009, he wrote Java and worked as an integration specialist at MTN
I remember driving to fetch him with dad at 3am, he was tired but so wired. I always believed but at that point I knew I’d end up in tech

For everyone wondering, certs give you credibility and a ticket to play but credibility is the icing on the cake.
Generally you’ll need an understanding of the underlying technology, the product itself (AWS has weird gotchas) and lots of experience.
But when it clicks?? Hmm 💰

Funny, this used to be a culture… we called it uk’twasa - not sure they’re related however, you’d have different teachers for different phases and styles of dance throughout your subjwa career
Leaving the Eastrand to go to your cousin in DK nge festive used to mean something 🤌🏾

Not just that, it operates under the assumption that the rest are willing to pick up the slack…
Your decision to downsize affected people they love so now you have to deal with that on top of trying to get the same outcomes
The real reason? AI costs money and salaries fund it

"engineers use AI to ship in days what used to take a team weeks"
true
what’s dangerous is the expectation that follows
that everyone should move faster… all the time
the trade of quality for quantity

Even in a square full of Porsches, Lambo’s, Rarris and Wagons, never doubt your ///M’s aura…
Even on a bad day, ungalinge ❗️
It has a chokehold on the streets.
Keep your heart blue 💙
