Hey, I'm Jamie
Tanna (he/him/his)
I'm currently a Senior Software Engineer at Deliveroo, and I'm currently based in Nottingham.
I have a /now page, which aims to be a more up-to-date about page.
I use my personal website as a method of blogging about my learnings, as well as sharing information about projects I have previously, or am currently, working on in my spare time.
I maintain a number of Open Source projects, and primarily use GitLab for my source control, but also use GitHub for some things.
I write a fair bit on my blog:
- Week Notes 23#06
- Getting a GitHub App installation token on the command-line
- Passing a private key as an environment variable
I blog as a form of documentation, as noted in my post Blogumentation - Writing Blog Posts as a Method of Documentation:
- Getting a GitHub App installation token on the command-line
- Passing a private key as an environment variable
- Listing the status of your branch protection in GitHub
- Determining missing translation keys from gettext .po files
- Setting up default Renovate configuration while allowing overriding of that configuration
I track articles and resources that I recommend I/others read as bookmarks on my site, the latest of which are:
- I Lived the Majority of My 4000 Weeks – a post by Marc Thiele
- Tech's Elite Hates Labor
- An Introduction To Class Warfare For The Software Engineer
- No I won't make it 'sexy'. - Lex Lofthouse
- https://localghost.dev/blog/everything-should-have-an-api-adventures-in-trying-to-automate-stuff/
I also write Week Notes as a way of summarising what's going on in my life. The last one can be found at Week Notes 23#06.
I like to track my data in IndieWeb fashion. For instance, the last book I read was The Sins of Our Fathers by James S. A. Corey, and yesterday, I took 7382 steps.
This is an autogenerated README, which is automagically deployed using GitHub Actions.
