This issue comes later, basically I skipped the whole week. However, I was quite busy this week, so there were not many posts on CatOps anyway.
Time Sensitive
Today is the last day to get yourself a programmer’s books bundle by No Starch Press!
Networking books bundle by Packt. There’s still like a week left to buy it.
Data Pipelines and NoSQL books bundle by O’Reilly. There’s still like two weeks left to buy it and O’Reilly has very good books ususally.
Charity
The fundraiser for Ukrainian snipers by “Come Back Alive” is still ongoing. Almost 3/4 of the required funds are there, but this is a big one.
Dzyga’s Paw raises money to buy 101 Starlink terminals for the defenders of Ukraine. The goal is almost reached, so maybe it’s your donation that’s going to be decisive?
Events
I do not usually post ads for events, or any other ads, if that matters. However, I do promote events in which I have personal involvement.
DOU Day is one of such cases. On behalf of the Architecture Stage organizers committee, I would like to invite you there! We have some amazing speakers and I really hope that you would enjoy it!
This is an offline event in Kyiv on the 18th of May. You can find more details as well as buy your tickets on the website.
Voice Chat
It took me way too long to edit this episode of our voice chat. Moreover, that was a long one, so it’s going to be several episodes. This one is about HashiCorp’s decision to switch to a business license for its products, specifically Terraform, and what it means for the community.
The voice chat is in Ukrainian. You can find it on YouTube:

Digest
Multiple Identity Gitconfig (with GPG signing) - a small guide on how to keep your Gitconfig neatly organized for multiple organizations.
Twenty Years Is Nothing - some history of the version control systems. So, you could see yourself that Git is fine.
Hacking Terraform State for Privilege Escalation - in principle, there is nothing new in this article: you have to protect your Terraform states, since they contain sensitive information. Yet, this article also provides some less intuitive suggestions on how to improve the security of your states.
That’s all for today, folks! Here’s a seagull!
