**Jessie Frazelle:** I didn't even know about that, and now I feel like I just did it a terrible way with bash scripts. \[laughter\]
**Brian Ketelsen:** \[20:05\] Now, one thing that is missing - I know they've got SDKs for Python and Perl, PHP, Ruby, Java and Node, but there is no Go SDK. So anybody who's out there looking for an opportunity to make a mark in the Go land, a good place to start might be a Linode SDK for Go.
**Erik St. Martin:** And we have a discount code too, which is 'GoTime20', and you get two months free, which is a $20 credit. The nodes are $10 each per month, and these are all SSD and I think they have eight data centers to choose from.
**Brian Ketelsen:** They do, and they've got really nice Xeon E5 processors, 40 gbps network. You can go to linode.com/gotime to get started, let them know we sent you, because we're awesome and so are they.
**Carlisia Thompson:** People are asking if they can make an SDK for Linode. Not only you can, but you should. You should do a Go SDK for Linode. That's what we're looking for.
**Erik St. Martin:** Right. How long do we have left on this episode? And... Go! \[laughter\]
**Brian Ketelsen:** And... Pull request submitted. That's awesome news. So they have lots of add-ons. They can do backups for you, they can do load balancing, they do some management professional services and DNS as well, so give them a shot. It's one of the original, the OG BPS providers, if you will, and they're pret...
Our other sponsor is Equinox, and we've talked about Alan Shreve a couple times, and his other project, ngrok. Equinox is pretty slick because it allows you to manage updates for the applications that you send out to your customers. At my job at Backplane we use Equinox to deliver the command line application that lets...
**Erik St. Martin:** That's the coolest thing, I thought... Rolling all the RPMs and all that stuff for you. Jessie was mentioning that earlier, that becomes a process in itself, just kind of deploying all the packages for stuff. And the self-updating thing, I wanna play with that.
I've seen this... I think you've talked about it maybe a year or so ago, and I kept meaning to go play with the self-updating part and I have not yet, and I feel bad.
**Brian Ketelsen:** It really is. I started at Backplane in mid-April maybe, and it was the first thing I did... Maybe my second day there - the first code I submitted was the Equinox client, and we couldn't be happier with how easy it is to run. Very nice. So go to Equinox.io and sign up for their automated applicatio...
**Erik St. Martin:** And remember, when you support our sponsors, you keep us on the air. \[laughter\]
**Brian Ketelsen:** That's right. The network will pick us up for another season, and hopefully that season will be as epic as Game of Thrones is this season.
**Erik St. Martin:** I think that's hard to compare.
**Brian Ketelsen:** \[laughs\] I'm coming in with dragons next week.
**Carlisia Thompson:** \[24:01\] But this is true, though. These companies have other places they can advertise, and they're advertising with us because they're supporters.
**Brian Ketelsen:** Yay, thanks to our sponsors.
**Erik St. Martin:** So Jessie, I saw something on your Twitter profile that got me laughing... Maintainerati. Coming to a bike shed near you. \[laughs\]
**Jessie Frazelle:** Oh, yeah! So I decided after I wrote that blog post about closing pull requests to start a conference that's more like an open space for maintainers, because it seemed like a lot of the maintainers that responded to my blog request had cool ideas about ways to fix things or even just problems they ...
**Erik St. Martin:** That's awesome. So have you set dates and a location for that?
**Jessie Frazelle:** Yeah, so it's gonna be next to GitHub at their office in San Francisco on February 15th.
**Erik St. Martin:** Awesome. How many people are gonna be there?
**Jessie Frazelle:** So I think we're gonna cap it like 120 for the first one, just so that we can make sure that it's not out of control and certain, and people can talk and discuss things.
**Erik St. Martin:** You don't wanna have problems to maintain the maintainers? \[laughter\]
**Jessie Frazelle:** Yeah...
**Carlisia Thompson:** And where do people sign up for the event?
**Jessie Frazelle:** We have a website, maintainerati.org, and right now it's just a form fill-out with email addresses, and then I think we're gonna send out invites pretty soon, once I get my life together. \[laughs\]
**Carlisia Thompson:** Cool.
**Erik St. Martin:** At everything about that I started laughing. Like, "Coming to a bike shed near you" and WONTFIX Cabal.
**Jessie Frazelle:** Yeah, it's called "The WONTFIX Cabal" and it's basically run by the maintainerati. Because I already own that domain. \[laughter\]
**Erik St. Martin:** So it started with the Containerati, right?
**Jessie Frazelle:** Yeah, I haven't really used that domain for anything cool and I should, but yeah... Somehow I should combine the two into the ultimate Cabal... I don't know.
**Erik St. Martin:** Yeah, what would you call that? It's like The Maintainerati Of The Containerati, or...
**Jessie Frazelle:** Like The Red Wedding Of Containers... \[laughter\]
**Carlisia Thompson:** I have very serious concerns for the day after this conference. How all these maintainers anarchists are gonna come back and just not fix things.
**Brian Ketelsen:** Yeah, they're just gonna start closing issues left and right.
**Jessie Frazelle:** Yeah, so me and Katrina Owen, who recently joined GitHub, she was like "Yeah, they wanna hear about all the features that the maintainers want", and I was like, "It's so ironic that we're gonna be the ones demanding features from GitHub."
**Brian Ketelsen:** There's a really juicy irony in that, isn't there?
**Jessie Frazelle:** Yeah. \[laughter\]
**Erik St. Martin:** So what other things do you have going on lately? Mostly caught up with your new gig with Kubernetes? Are you working on anything personally for projects? You're always seeming to be trying to port new things to run inside containers. We actually were joking that you're probably trying to get Skype...
**Jessie Frazelle:** Okay, so one, I had Skype working in a container \[laughter\] on this computer that I was trying to use.
**Erik St. Martin:** I knew it!
**Jessie Frazelle:** I literally have like three computers in front of me right now, but it just like decided to fail, of course, because computers... So yeah, I guess personally I made that contain.af website, which I should add more questions to; it's like a quiz game to help people learn about figuring out things in...
**Brian Ketelsen:** So for anybody who hasn't seen it yet, Jessie's dotfiles are the most amazing thing on the planet. I think that if I could take a month and just go spelunking through those dotfiles, I would be the happiest man on the planet.
**Erik St. Martin:** \[28:02\] You know, I'm not important anymore. Brian used to borrow my dotfiles... \[laughs\]
**Carlisia Thompson:** I went to check out her .vim files because I remember Brian mentioning it. Next week I'm getting a brand new machine, and for the first time in three or four years I've decided that I'm going to have clean slates. So I checked out Jessie's .vim file, and not only the vimrc file... She actually ha...
**Erik St. Martin:** Let's say you're stoked for all of that, that we can have folders for each thing and then when I'm on a machine I can just kind of symlink the things that I want for that machine.
**Jessie Frazelle:** Yeah, I love the symlink thing... It's so nice.
**Brian Ketelsen:** These dotfiles are a thing of beauty. So there's containers for everything, and then a beautiful little bash script that converts the command that you want to run into the container command to actually run the container. It's beautiful. How long does it take to build all those Docker files and actua...
**Jessie Frazelle:** I actually have a private registry where I host them, because for some reason - and I think that they're trying to fix it - my automated builds on Docker hub, they just don't build. I just think I have too many. So I have a private registry that has Jenkins hooked up to it, so it runs continuously ...
