Now that we have finally recovered, thanks to everyone who made the 10th anniversary of #AllThingsOpen the BEST ONE EVER! We couldn't have done it without the generosity of our community. To our sponsors, speakers, attendees and volunteers, THANK YOU for everything!
Highlights from "Where Do Great Open Source Contributors Come From?" @AllThingsOpen with @dwcheatham, @stephenaugustus, @TheOnlyAkersh, @jonmarkgo #opensource #diversity #inclusion #sustainoss #AllThingsOpen
Really great panel session with @dwcheatham @stephenaugustus and @TheOnlyAkersh! I loved the conversation about supporting contributors with opportunities. #AllThingsOpen #ATO2022
@TheOnlyAkersh makes a solid point about how #interviewskills for #codinginterviews or #systeminterviews can be an incredible privilege to acquire and, without pathways to circumvent the privilege, "insular patterns of thinking" are antithetical to external contribution

Yessir it's going to be a blast!
Open #innovation allows for a more adaptive, more stable, more diverse and more collaborative environment for progress. Our work environment is ripe for change, I think we have a good shot at changing it for the better! hbr.org/2020/06/why-no…
Never underestimate the power of humor as a soft skill when you're a tech manager. Seriously, it'll help you and your team get through the day. #techcareer
You DONOT NEED to be an awesome developer to jump into the world of Opensource. It's for everyone !
Retweeting this as I lose 3 more followers
Getting into tech can seem like a huge hurdle to jump over, but if you keep building relationships within the community and asking questions when you need to, you'll find yourself over that hurdle in no time. #developeradvocacy #beginnertech #career
Our second post in the "Summer of open source" series highlights resources for learning and updates about PyTorch, including quantization and the recent launch of the #PyTorchFoundation. Explore some of the features and recipes currently available: bit.ly/3UCgCyz
Developers will listen to you (and your company) if you speak with authenticity and empathy. This means you need to spend time with developers, online or in-person, to understand how they think and how they work. This is part of the non-measurable work of #devrel
1. Learn in public. 2. Build in public - either on your own project or with open source. 3. Profit in public - through a job, freelancing gigs, or your own business. When you do stuff in public, you’ll get unlimited access to potential mentors, employers, clients, and users.
A common tech org pattern: -This is Team A, they are responsible for metrics ABC -This is Team B, they own XYZ products -This is the design team, they do design for us
