Out on adventures this morning with my best girl 😍 #DogsOfMastodon #Dogs #SilentSunday #Husky #Huskies #LadyDuchess

My upcoming retirement from the Marine Corps was recently approved, and it has me reflecting on my career and the many lessons I have learned over the years. So I started writing... and forgot to stop 😅 This turned out far longer - but also far more polished - than I expected. It might be the thing I am most proud to have written. https://jacklinke.com/give-the-credit-take-the-blame-fight-for-your-people #Leadership #Accountability #Care #TeamBuilding #Leading #Advocacy

At #DjangoCon US this past Fall, I had three different conversations where folks encouraged me to consider giving a talk on how I got started with #Django and #Python. Over the following couple months I mulled over those conversations, and in December one of my two talk proposals to #PyCon was on this topic. The proposal was accepted, and I am delighted that I will be able to talk to the Python community and @npub1l9am...yneh this May!

And... Done! Before the week ended even! django-tomselect 2024.12.2 is published

"Don't fall in love with your baby" But this is the most polished, lovely thing I've created 😍 --- Only a couple more hyper-focused hours away from sharing my stupidly-overdone-demo (oh, and the #Django package it demonstrates 😆 )

It is December 1st, and I am quietly mourning the impending end of Pumpkin Spice season 😪 I try to remind myself that the sense of loss we feel (or the recognition that loss will one day occur) means that the love was real ❤️☕
