Really not impressed with CircleCI. It's basically on par with Gitlab CI and suffers from the same shortcoming as most CI systems - they're all focused on single-repo use. I.e. I can't fan in from multiple repos to execute a given workflow/pipeline. I miss GoCD :(

At this rate, with airline delays, less than 48 hours at home this weekend. Normally I'd just stay here but I have so many shipments of clothes waiting on my doorstep for me :D

Flying on a 777 to CA tonight. I think the biggest plane I've ever flown on. Whereas NY flights were 80% gold/plat passengers in group 1, this one is 80% 1Ks. I'm just always outranked FML

and yes, of course it's written by a former ThoughtWorker :)

Finally reading the Microservices O'Reilly book. Surprising that it goes way beyond just service design to include continuous delivery/devops and also lays out the concept of evolutionary architectures.
