Arrived in the mail from T’s grandparents. My first thought: “Since when do kids’ books talk about email protocols?” Might have my head a little too far up that problem space. #pop #smtp #neitherMcClane likes this.

I've shipped quite a few improvements for #qmail users in the 2018Q4 release of #pkgsrc, the practical cross-platform Unix package manager. In one sentence:It's probably easy for you to run qmail now.With more sentences and a demo: https://schmonz.com/2019/01/07/2018q4-qmail-updates-in-pkgsrc/#DevOps2019-01-06T18:01:54Z via Identi.ca Web To: Public CC: Followers
I use a Mac, but don't particularly care for launchd. So I installed pkgtools/rc.d-boot and sysutils/daemontools-run from #pkgsrc and converted my custom launchd items from XML to tiny shell scripts. Nice.2018-12-17T21:55:01Z via Identi.ca Web To: Public CC: Followers
Do you use #pkgsrc on non-#NetBSD? Do you _not_ run #qmail?Great! Please update to pkgsrc-current and test two packages for me: https://mail-index.netbsd.org/pkgsrc-users/2018/12/17/msg027809.html(NetBSD and/or qmail users, happy to hear your results too.)2018-12-11T19:49:29Z via Identi.ca Web To: Public CC: Followers
If you can listen past the crackling audio, you'll hear a fine conversation with Faye Thompson, Esther Derby, and Ryan Ripley on what people — ourselves included — need to reflect and change our behavior. https://schmonz.com/talk/20181210-agile-for-humans/ #Agile #Scrum #Retrospectives #Coaching #FacilitationMcClane likes this.

I mostly avoid gigs that require travel. But if the amount of travel is very small, and the friends I’m gigging with are very good... gotta head to bed. Early flight.See what I'm up against? https://twitter.com/msilpala/status/10581846147061432332018-10-26T02:33:04Z via Identi.ca Web To: Public CC: Followers

I've shipped my SMTP AUTH implementation for #qmail. It's designed to avoid patch conflicts, add new user-controlled features, and perhaps offer desirablesecurity properties.

I suggest you use the title field for that, it would make a nicer post (Meanwhile column would be more helpful).

Sometime overnight, https://agilein3minut.es had its 50,000th download. I started it with various goals, wishes, and imaginings, many of which have come to pass, but none of which involved a number anywhere close to this wide.2018-10-01T13:58:15Z via Identi.ca Web To: Public CC: Followers
I still seem to have a résumé. So now it's updated to mention #CodingTour: https://schmonz.com/resume
