Teammate on most recent team gave me this parting feedback: “I learned a ton, we got lots done, our team dynamics were awesome, and I’ve never felt this kind of team feeling before.”

If your business makes software, I might be good for your business.

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.)

RFC 3207 says an SMTP server must reset all state after STARTTLS. One way to be very sure — architecture permitting — would be to kill and restart the server.

This was quite easy to implement in the latest acceptutils: https://marc.info/?l=qmail&m=154308059931375&w=2

The bug in my SMTP proxy is being triggered by emails from my mom. How did I not manage to expect this?

1. Play
2. Gratitude
3. Community

Today's update to my SMTP AUTH implementation for #qmail now also provides TLS for message submission and incoming deliveries, without patching! More: https://marc.info/?l=qmail&m=154171120706990&w=2

As always, if you use #pkgsrc, just get the latest qmail and qmail-run. 🙂

I've shipped my SMTP AUTH implementation for #qmail. It's designed to avoid patch conflicts, add new user-controlled features, and perhaps offer desirable
security properties. More: https://marc.info/?l=qmail&m=154048252009339&w=2

If you use #pkgsrc, just update to the latest qmail and qmail-run. 🙂

New York people! Two weeks from today, a very special joint meetup of #CTO School and NYC #Lean/#Kanban:

"#MobProgramming for Non-Programmers"

As seen on my recent European #CodingTour!

LOL if your package manager can't:

- Install from binaries
- Build from source
- Hide undeclared dependencies from builds
- Use another compiler
- Intercept all calls to cc, ld, libtool, etc. (https://www.netbsd.org/gallery/presentations/joerg/eurobsdcon2009/wrapper.html)
- Run as root or non-root
- Run on a different OS
- Provide quarterly stable releases
- Offer nearly 20,000 packages

Your periodic reminder that

- You depend, every day, in dev and in prod, on software that behaves differently from version to version
- Homebrew doesn’t work on Linux, apt-get doesn’t work on Mac, not all computers are x86
- Your time is valuable
- #pkgsrc exists
