some hold that the role of PMs is diminished in a world where AI enables anyone to instantly code up an idea. the converse is true: a PM that can say “stop! let’s understand the customer need first“ is more important than ever. when code is cheap, the judgement to know what to release is critical.

Five years ago @bketelsen.bsky.social and I "co founded" projectbluefin.io - it was a handmade Dockerfile. We're still at it. Except this time we're spending our time one design and discussion while we send the clankers to go do our bidding. Local models working fine too...

One of the first things I did when starting at @cncf.io is work on getting Flatcar Linux into incubation. It took us a year! So many awesome OSS people helped make it happen. cc @ahrkrak.bsky.social and @lachie.bsky.social www.zdnet.com/article/micr...

I finally acquired an original Lenovo Legion Go and of course I had to put Linux on it and get rid of Windows, so I finally got to see the fuss over Bazzite.
