Between sick pets, budget exercises, political indictments, and some odd hate talk getting into my linkedin feed, there&#8217;s a lot going on inside the stuff I care about&#8230;but I still found a few things I think are worth sharing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It&#8217;s Pride month. Even if you think you know what it&#8217;s all about, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pride.com\/pride\/pride-facts\">these pride facts<\/a> probably have something new for you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nobody really knows how to use public cloud. That&#8217;s not actually true, but I think more orgs need to think about it more. Articles like this one on <a href=\"https:\/\/leanercloud.beehiiv.com\/p\/recommended-ecs-instead-kubernetes-latest-customer\">Why I recommended ECS instead of Kubernetes to my latest customer<\/a> are wonderful for reminding us how to think about the most efficient ways to build &#8220;cloud things&#8221; given the massive number of choices we have.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I haven&#8217;t linked to a Mike Cohn blog in a while, but this week&#8217;s post is worth a revisit. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountaingoatsoftware.com\/blog\/why-a-sustainable-pace-is-so-important-to-agile-teams\">Why Sustainable Pace Is So Important to Agile Teams<\/a><br \/><em>Working beyond a sustainable pace leads to stress, which leads to mistakes.<\/em><br \/>So True!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ran across this on The Verge this week &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2023\/6\/7\/23753323\/google-doesnt-want-employees-working-remotely-anymore\">Google doesn\u2019t want employees working remotely anymore<\/a>. I think this sentiment is growing in tech companies &#8211; but I can&#8217;t tell if it&#8217;s because they believe (or have data) showing that it&#8217;s better (because everything I&#8217;ve seen is the opposite), or if companies feel like they&#8217;re losing money because nobody is going to the office.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I&#8217;ve read many articles and books on effective meetings. Most are crap and miss the point. This article on <a href=\"https:\/\/ashleyjanssen.com\/how-to-have-more-effective-meetings-part-1-purpose-and-people\/\">How to Have More Effective Meetings is not crap<\/a>. In fact, it&#8217;s clear, concise, and accurate.  Read it, and then (like me) look forward to Part 2.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks again for reading. Be nice to each other and have a great weekend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been a week.
