The Friday all-paws meeting. Jumpy Dog, Barry, and Jack.

Investigating to examine exactly how terrible of an idea “manage my dotfiles with Ansible” might be.

Evidence so far suggests less terrible than this morning’s idea of “manage my dotfiles with Terraform”

@lordbowlich this is a career development move, though having a secondary goal of closer to idempotent setup across operating systems has me also pondering Nix.

Should take a lunch break before I get carried away.

@hyde as little as possible.

@lordbowlich I use dotbot for mostly personal workspaces, with some logic in place for local overrides. Was pondering Nix to keep the dependencies a bit more predictable, or asdf.

Neither of those help with the short-term career dev goal, so maybe later.

Well dang. Didn’t get that one. Guess I’ll want to build myself a little practice on timed challenges.

@perigrin Thanks, and yeah I was pretty excited about that one. Was nice to actually talk to someone.

Oh and there was actual feedback, which was nice. A code review would have been better, but getting the broad highs and lows is helpful.
