A quotation from Teddy Roosevelt
I wish to preach, not the doctrine of ignoble ease, but the doctrine of the strenuous life. The life of toil and effort, of labor and strife; to preach that highest form of success which comes, not to the man who desires mere easy peace, but to the man who does not shrink from danger, from hardship or from bitter toil, and who out of these wins the splendid ultimate triumph.
Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901–1909)
Speech (1899-04-10), “The Strenuous Life,” Hamilton Club, ChicagoMore about this quote: wist.info/roosevelt-theodore/1…

Poll!
Should I have included this final sentence in an email declining to do more #toil in getting an academic paper published?
Please invite the (#academic #publisher) to the venue, at their own expense, where there is plenty of sand for them to pound.
[Edit: "Just right" means, yes, it should be included.]

Toiling — rejoicing — sorrowing,
Onward through life he goes;
Each morning sees some task begin,
Each evening sees it close;
Something attempted, something done,
Has earned a night’s repose.Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882) American poet
“The Village Blacksmith,” st. 7 (1840)Sourcing, notes: wist.info/longfellow-henry-wad…

If that’s his humour, trust me, I shall spare
No kind of pains to win admittance there:
I’ll bribe his porter; if denied to-day,
I’ll not desist, but try some other way:
I’ll watch occasions — linger in his suite,
Waylay, salute, huzzah him through the street.
Nothing of consequence beneath the sun
Without great labour ever yet was done.
[Haud mihi dero:
muneribus servos corrumpam; non, hodie si
exclusus fuero, desistam; tempora quaeram,
occurram in triviis, deducam. Nil sine magno
vita labore dedit mortalibus.]Horace (65-8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
Satires [Saturae, Sermones], Book 1, # 9, “Ibam forte Via Sacra,” l. 56ff (1.9.56-60) (35 BC) [tr. Howes (1845)]Sourcing, notes, alternate translations: wist.info/horace/11511/

from a large Sydney based software house came this 'milestone' -- "Delivering new AI capabilities to help developers reduce toil across their workflows"
I had to look up the word "#toil" and now have lots of linguistically inclined bathroom questions 👀🙈 -

Here's the third in the series of new Sadler's Lectures podcast episodes on the Cynic Epistles attributed to Crates. This one looks at a key idea, toil (ponos), which you can't escape

Here's the second new Sadler's Lectures podcast episode on the Cynic Epistles attributed (most likely falsely) to Crates. This one is on their conception of happiness and virtue

Reducing #toil is an important part of #SRE, but do you measure how much toil work your engineers are doing? If so, *how* do you measure it?
Confession: I've never measured it or been part of measuring it (yet). I genuinely want to know how teams are measuring it in a non-intrusive and accurate way.
(PS. I drew this art using a the trackpad on my laptop and I'm unjustifiably proud of it...)

Here's the next core concept video on the Cynic Epistles, this one looking at their notion of "toil" (ponos). You're going to have to deal with some, so you may as well pick the right sort, they think!

Being a people manager again after spending the last 5 years doing #devops is fun I come with a prospective of why is there so much #toil? and how can i automate it? In the first 3 months I’ve automated 3 of my processes using #PowerAutomate
