README
Welcome to readme.jvt.me
.
Hey, I’m Jamie Tanna (he/him/his) 👋
I’m currently a Senior Software Engineer at Elastic, and I’m currently based in Nottingham.
I have a /now page, which aims to be a more up-to-date about page.
I use my personal website as a method of blogging about my learnings, as well as sharing information about projects I have previously, or am currently, working on in my spare time.
Right now, my two biggest side projects are dependency-management-data and oapi-codegen
.
As well as them, I maintain a number of other Open Source projects, and primarily use GitLab for my source control, but also use GitHub for some things.
I write a fair bit on my blog:
- Don’t do Agile, be agile
- Converting a Reveal.js slide deck to PDF
- Getting symlinks to work with a git clone on Mac
I blog as a form of documentation, as noted in my post Blogumentation - Writing Blog Posts as a Method of Documentation:
- Converting a Reveal.js slide deck to PDF
- Getting symlinks to work with a git clone on Mac
- Using a separate Go module for your tools.go
- Utilising Renovate’s local platform to test more easily
- Nested teams in GitHub don’t give you the control you think they do
I track articles and resources that I recommend I/others read as bookmarks on my site, the latest of which are:
- I just crossed $1 million on GitHub Sponsors. 💰🎉
- Elasticsearch is open source, again
- Breaking changes: a tooling problem - Richard Marmorstein
- Blog Posts vs. Social Posts
- Leaving Twitter for New Frontiers
I also write Week Notes as a way of summarising what’s going on in my life. The last one can be found at Week Notes 24#39.
I like to track my data in IndieWeb fashion. For instance, the last book I read was From Project to Profit by Heather Meeker, and yesterday, I took 6107 steps.
This is an autogenerated README, which is automagically deployed using GitLab CI.
