README

Welcome to readme.jvt.me.

Hey, I’m Jamie Tanna (he/him/his) 👋

I’m currently a Senior Software Engineer at Deliveroo, 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.

I maintain a number of 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:

• Ensuring files are synced between repos with GitHub Actions
• I don’t think I want my next promotion (yet)
• Week Notes 23#11

I blog as a form of documentation, as noted in my post Blogumentation - Writing Blog Posts as a Method of Documentation:

• Ensuring files are synced between repos with GitHub Actions
• Working out which Docker namespaces and images you most depend on
• Querying JSON with SQLite
• Dynamically retrieving the version of a Node.JS/Typescript dependency, at runtime
• Automating boilerplate/scaffolding code with custom code generation in Go, with jen

I track articles and resources that I recommend I/others read as bookmarks on my site, the latest of which are:

• Continuous Productivity Is Toxic
• Why Engineers Need To Write
• SOS: Sustainable Open Source
• It’s worth putting in the effort to regularly update dependencies
• Docker is deleting Open Source organisations - what you need to know

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 23#11.

I like to track my data in IndieWeb fashion. For instance, the last book I read was Unmasking Autism Discovering the New Faces of Neurodiversity by DeVon Price, and yesterday, I took 8942 steps.

This is an autogenerated README, which is automagically deployed using GitLab CI.
