“Corrupted content error” — that’s a new one for me.

Got the first hotfix of the week out of the way smoothly and that’s always nice.

Hm. Pondering.

Best way to cause change is to model what you want to see. We’re the culture.

I’m good at owning my mistakes. How can I be better?

Post-it for my future mistakes:

My post-it checklist isn’t for quizzing others. What an intensely uncomfortable thought.

No, it’s my reminder for myself, to ponder and then share results next time I melt a database. So far my greatest workplace contribution has been Interesting Mistakes, so I’ll build on that.

@seyerian you got this!

I keep coming up with addendums.

I know “We’re the culture” comes from privilege. Anyone can model good patterns. Not everyone can effect equal change.

But us folks walking around like we’re the default — or a hip alternative? We can put our disproportionate weight to good use.
