A
I
just
realized
I've
made
the
same
mistake.
I
always
make
with
these
videos.
There's
no
good
fade
out
or
fade
to
black
before
it
comes
out.
But
listen
you
live.
You
learn.
You
get
loves,
welcome
to
contributing
with
fatima
and
pj,
I'm
pj
metz
education,
evangelist
at
gitlab
and
with
me
today
and
who
will
be
with
me
every
time
I
do
this
show.
B
A
D
B
A
C
B
Source
contributions
are
super
important
super
rewarding
the
communities
want
them.
The
projects
want
them
and
I
think
a
lot
of
different
open
source
software
have
figured
out
different
ways
to
make
it
work
like
I've
worked
primarily
with
drupal,
but
other
places
have
done
it
in
different
ways.
So
we'll
chat
about
that
and
we'll
also
chat
about
how
gitlab
does
it
and
how
you
can
help
us
contribute.
I
am
looking
forward
to
that.
A
B
I
think
I
haven't,
I
had
an
interview,
it
was
a
code
for
america
and
they
were
like.
Are
you
fine
with
ruby
on
rails,
and
I
was
like
I'll
figure
it
out
and
then
I
got
there
and
I
tried
and
I
tried-
and
I
couldn't
do
it
I
couldn't
like
it
was
just
like
cuts
and
stumbling,
and
I
remember
the
feedback
they
had
given
me
was
like.
You
didn't,
really
know
what
you
were
doing
with
the
outfit
and
I
was
like
thanks.
I
kind
of
told
you
that,
though,.
C
A
A
C
A
Of
realized,
actually
I
was
talking
to
one
of
our
co-workers.
I
was
talking
to
jamie
today
and
I
realized
that
I
should
learn
some
ruby
on
rails
and
I
should
check
into
seeing
what
I
can
figure
out
about
it
and
I
have
this
subscription
to
codecademy.
So
I
was
like
well.
Why
not
do
that
and
they
have
a
ruby
on
rails
course.
They
say
it'll
take
about
10
hours
so
next
week
you
can
expect
me
to
be
an
expert.
B
A
A
B
A
B
I
remember
watching
your
stream
and
then
o'leary
crew,
like
whenever
you
the
two
of
you,
would
be
online
and
just
like
commenting
and
being
like
wow,
that's
really
cool.
That's
I'm
not
like.
I
know
people
who
stream
for
work
and
then
I
know
people
who
stream
for
games-
and
it
was
just
like
it's
like
how
I
didn't
expect
to
do
that
as
part
of
the
job.
So
it's
it's
very
interesting.
A
A
Yeah
well
so,
and
that
sort
of
ties
into
like
how
did
this
come
about,
and
this
came
about
because
we've
been
talking
a
lot
about
contributing
at
work.
It's
one
of
the
things
that
we're
trying
to
focus
on
at
gitlab
is
to
drive
contributions
and
have
more
people
come
and
be
a
part
of
building
gitlab
with
gitlab,
and
it's
a
company-wide
initiative,
and
you
and
I
were
like
you
know-
I
think
it's
because
of
me.
A
I
was
like
oh,
I
was
looking
at
like
the
the
get
live
development
kit
that
I
have
to
download
and
I
got
confused
and
you're
like
well
what
if
we
look
at
it
together
and
so
we
started
looking
at
it
together
and
then
you
were
like
this
could
be
really
useful
and
I
was
like:
are
we
making
a
show
and
you're
like
we
made
a
show?
And
so
then.
B
Yeah,
I
remember
you
were
telling
them
about
the
gdk
and
I
was
like
I
didn't
know.
We
had
that
and
then
there's
a
lot
more
there
like
you,
created
a
separate
account
and
you
were
trying
to
like
go
through
the
process
and
I
was
like
wow
pj
like
I
should
go
through
the
process
too,
and
then
we
like,
I
still
haven't.
I
haven't
gone
through
the
gdk
process.
So
that's
something
that
I
think
will
be
fun.
It'll
happen
live
there
will
be
roads.
A
And
I
think
I've
said
before
that
one
of
the
most
important
things
about
making
tutorials
and
making
like
workshops
and
making
things
where
people
are
expected
to
create,
while
it
happens,
is
to
be
honest
about
roadblocks.
You're
going
to
encounter
is
to
be
honest
about
bugs
and
things
that
are
not
going
to
go
according
to
plan,
because
that's
reality.
B
A
B
I
feel
like
we
can't
do
that,
because
that's
not
authentic
we're
gonna
have
to
ping
the
person
the
bot
tells
us
to
pay.
You
know
how
the
bot
shows
up,
and
it's
like
the
new
beta
feature
where
it's
like
here's
the
recommended
people
for
this
type
of
contribution.
We
should
follow
whatever
that
process
is
and
see
how
it
goes.
A
A
We
are
testing
out
to
see
if
we
can
use
machine
learning
to
see
if
we
can
figure
out
who
the
best
person
to
tag
for
review
is,
and
at
least
one
person
usually
recommends,
like
five
people
at
least
one
I've
noticed
has
usually
been
like
yeah,
that's
the
person
who
should
be
tagged.
So
it's
been
it's
probably
kind
of
cool
to
see
that
happening.
B
C
A
A
Right,
you
are,
let's
actually
before
we
dive
into
we've
talked
about
how
the
show
started
you
and
I
need
to
get
familiar
with
contributing
to
gitlab,
so
we're
going
to
learn
live
and
it's
going
to
be
over
several
episodes.
We've
talked
about
how
you
and
I
know,
each
other
and
just
the
work
we
do
and
I'm
very
excited
for
all
of
this
you're
going
to
be
at
open
source
summit
in
austin.
B
B
This
is
correct:
I'm
going
to
be
doing
booth
duty
for
the
first
time,
I'm
going
to
run
some
newsletter
signups.
We
have
this
community
newsletter
that
we're
working
on
that
will,
you
know,
show
you
opportunities
to
contribute,
but
also
share
things
that
we're
working
on
and
cool
projects,
and
it's
kind
of
like
a
learn,
discuss
and
contribute
newsletter,
so
we'll
be
getting
sign
ups
for
that,
so
that
we
can
start
sending
out
some
content.
C
A
If
you
have
it
I'll,
take
it
perfect,
codechallenge.dev.
Thank
you
code.
Challenge.Dev
is
a
little
code
challenge.
We
have
to
help
people
get
more
familiar
with
gitlab.
So
if
you
go
to
here
codechallenge.dev
and
check
that
out,
you
can
sign
up
with
a
gitlab
account
and
it
will
give
you
a
chance
to
experience
what
it's
like
to
contribute
to
gitlab.
It
starts
off
easy,
adjust
this
readme
fork.
This
do
that
and
eventually
the
last
challenge
is
a
little
more
complicated
you're,
actually
making
a
merge
request
to
contribute
directly
to
gitlab.
B
A
B
A
Nope
nope
you're
doing
great,
it's
wonderful,
but
also
like
please
hold
on.
So
what
is
your
you
said
you?
Neither
of
us
have
contributed
to
gitlab
outside
of
the
contributing
to
the
handbook
which
we
have
to
do
as
part
of
our
jobs.
Our
handbook
at
gitlab
is
2
000
web
pages
of
information
about
how
everything
in
the
company
works.
So
we've
done
that
we've
written
merge
requests,
but
we
haven't
contributed
to
the
project
itself.
So
that's
new
for
us.
What
have
you
contributed
to
fosuma?
What
what
have
you
worked?
B
Yeah
so
right
out
of
school,
I
started
working
in
drupal
and
drupal
is
all
about.
Come
for
the
code
stay
for
the
community
until
I
started
out
trying
to
contribute
to
the
cms
project,
doing
like
issues
here
and
there
with
some
of
the
initiatives
like
layout
builder,
but
mostly
contributing
to
some
of
the
like
community
based
initiatives
so
like
being
on
the
program
team
for
drupalcon
or
like
doing
session
reviews
or
like
running
local
meetups.
So
a
lot
of
it
has
been
that
and
then
something
funny
we
talked
about
was
like.
B
A
B
Amount
of
stuff
I
personally
did
so
like
all
of
a
sudden.
I
was
like
a
contribution,
lead
and
so
drupal
has
this
really
organic
like
they
really
like
to
like
push
you
into
the
leadership
roles
like
when
they
find
somebody
who's
good
at
mentoring,
and
so
I
was
just
like.
Why
am
I
leading?
I
don't
contribute.
A
Well,
sometimes
it's
that
you're
really
good
at
getting
others
what
they
need
in
order
to
contribute-
and
I
think
that's
really
useful
and
that
I
think
that
really
speaks
to
something.
I've
learned
about
just
tech
in
general
that
it's
not
always
the
10x
engineer
or
the
person
who
is
the
best
coder.
That
is
the
person
best
suited
to
contribute
to
other
areas
of
a
job
that
makes
it
successful.
B
Yeah
a
lot
of
times
with
contribution
like
there's
so
much
process,
and
if
you
have
somebody-
and
I
think
we
don't
do
it
as
well
virtually
but
at
an
event,
you
can
have
a
room
where
there's
a
contribution
mentor.
They
can
walk
you
through
the
process.
So
they
can
find
you
an
issue
and
help
you
figure
out
like
how
to
upload
a
patch
how
to
comment
on
something.
C
A
B
C
A
Absolutely
and
like
when
you
said,
like
oh
processes,
I
can
figure
this
out.
I
can
do
that
yeah.
Someone
can
be
absolutely
amazing,
coder
and
writer,
but
then,
if
it's
a
process
to
contribute
that
they're
not
familiar
with
that,
can
for
many
people
be
a
barrier,
and
so
that's
something.
I
think
that
this
show
will
will
have
a
little
bit
of
value.
A
B
Yeah,
I
completely
agree.
I
agree
about
the
barriers
like
if,
if
there's
something
in
that,
like
20
step
process,
that
makes
you
feel
like.
Oh,
I
don't
know
how
to
install
that,
or
I
don't
know
how
to
set
that
up,
and
you
don't
have
anyone
guiding
you
through
that,
like
you're
likely
to
just
walk
away
like
you,
have
to
really
want
it
to
push
through.
B
B
Yeah
there's
a
joke
at
dribble
con
that,
like
I
can't
get
from
point
a
to
b.
If
I
have
to
meet
someone,
because
I
keep
getting
stopped
on
the
way,
often
oftentimes,
it's
like
people
have
seen
me
or
known
me
or
I'm
on
the
twitters,
and
so
they
like
reference
me,
and
so
I'm
just
like
stop!
Stop
stop
like
it'll.
Take
me.
B
A
A
My
god,
someone
knows
me
and
normally
I'm
like.
Oh
did
I
make
a
mistake,
and
everyone
knows
about
it.
No,
they
like
knew
me
from
like
a
little
thing
or
they're
like
oh,
you
made
shania,
I'm
like
yeah
cool
yeah.
I
met
actually,
and
this
is
funny
my
one
experience.
My
first
pull
request.
I
ever
made
on
github
was
when
everyone
was
joking
on
twitter,
about
infinidash
being
a
new
aws
service
and
everyone's
picking
up
whatever
it
could
like.
A
Oh,
it
can
like
reduce
your
cost,
and
it
can
also
spin
up
things
faster
and
it
can
add
it
can
make
k9s
instead
of
k8s
and
like
all
these
things
and
like
I,
I
was
nervous
because
I
had
a
joke
to
contribute
to
what
I
did
is
all
these
jokes
happening.
I
was
like,
I
went
to
brenda
and
I
was
like
brendan.
A
We
should
make
merch,
so
we
made
infinidash
merch
and
I
was
like
this
is
so
fun
I
tweeted
about
it
and
the
person
who
started
the
infinidash
joke
is
joe
nash,
who's
that
twilio
and
joe
was
like.
Oh,
this
is
cool.
You
should
totally
add
it
to
the
to
the
github
repository
we
have
of
infinite
resources.
B
Good
cause-
indeed,
I
hear
you
say
like
pull,
request,
pull
request,
pull
request,
and
I
remember
I
think
I
even
saw
a
few
tweets
with
folks-
are
always
like.
What's
a
pull
request
and
like
it
doesn't
make
any
sense,
it's
not
intuitive,
no,
not
not
shooting
shots.
I
give
hub
at
all.
Just
you
know,
there
are
words
in
technology
that
don't
make
sense,
and
I
think
it
happens
in
drupal
as
well
like
we'll
say
things
like
re-roll
your
patch.
B
B
A
C
A
Give
your
students
multiple
choice
all
year
long
and
then
at
the
end
of
the
year.
You
give
them
matching,
that's
a
new
format
and
if
they're
not
familiar
with
it,
even
if
they
know
the
information
that
format
might
be
restrictive
in
them
being
able
to
prove
that
they
know
the
information
and
so
in
education
we
always
have
to
consider.
What
are
we
testing?
Are
we
testing
their
knowledge
or
are
we
testing
their
knowledge
of
a
process
or
what
are
we
assuming
about
their
background
knowledge?
A
B
A
And
this
then
ties
into
like
when
you
talk
about
standardized
testing
like
the
sat
or
the
gre
or
the
mcat
or
the
lsat,
these
big
standardized
tests
to
get
into
specific
colleges
yeah.
What
are
we
testing
and
then
you're
like?
Oh
well,
the
students
who
are
most
familiar
with,
let's
say
the
sat,
tend
to
do
better
yeah
because
they've
been
doing
practice
tests
because
they
can
afford
both
time
and
money
in
order
to
afford
to
practice
it
and
if
you're
first.
A
Right,
absolutely:
oh
man!
It's
it's
so
interesting
to
me
that
like,
and
I
feel
like
you
get
this
too.
The
idea
that
my
background
knowledge
can
bring
useful
experience
and
useful
sort
of
like
references
to
my
current
career.
I
never
would
have
thought
that
knowing
about
testing
strategies
or
knowing
about
how
to
write
a
test
would
help
me
as
a
gitlab.
You
know
so.
C
B
Like
what's
your
on-ramp
like
and
like
what
kinds
of
contributors
are
you
bringing
in
and
like?
Do
you
have
contributor
pathways
for
someone
who
is
really
good
at
analyzing
patterns
versus
is
really
good
at
writing
is
very
good
at
testing
like
if
you
only
have
one
path,
it's
going
to
be
really
hard
to
take
everyone
along
that
path.
A
Right
and
one
path
is,
is
sometimes
easy
to
fall
into,
because
when
you
start
with
open
source,
it's
you
and
people.
You
know
trying
to
create
something.
So
for
you
three
two,
five
six.
Maybe
people
sure
like
that
path
works
for
y'all.
But
if
you
want
to
grow,
you
have
to
make
sure
you
have
other
ways
to
enter
into
that.
It's
fantastic.
B
The
amount
of
times
I
panicked
about
installing
the
handbook
on
my
local
for
some
reason
I
completely
missed
the
web
ide
section.
So
I
was
like
doing
all
this
weird
stuff
to
get
ruby
working
on
my
computer,
and
you
know
there
was
a
cohort
of
people
who
had
gotten
hired
at
the
same
time.
So
there
was
multiple
threads
in
multiple
channels
about
ruby
issues,
and
I
was
just
losing
my
mind.
I
was
like
it's
day,
seven
or
week
five.
C
E
A
C
B
C
B
So
I
like
it,
took
me
three
days,
no
lie
to
get
this,
mr
up
and
to
make
sure
it
was
perfect
because
I'm
still
working
on
the
iteration
thing,
like
I'm,
not
really
good
at
like
rough
work
up
front,
which
is
why
this
stream
will
be
good
for
me.
But
I,
like
you,
know
you,
you
put
all
your
love
into
it.
You've
tested
it.
You
know
you
thought
13
000
times
before
you
deployed
it,
and
then
your
manager
still
finds
mistakes
in
it
and
like
grammar
errors
in
your
biography,
you're,
just
like
okay.
B
C
B
A
A
C
A
B
A
A
C
A
C
B
I
had,
I
think
there
was
a
question
I
had
where
I
was
like.
I
don't
know
how
draft
oh.
There
was
a
question
on
the
forum
where
someone
was
asking
about
why
draft
was
getting
appended
to
the
title
of
their
merger
fuss
and
I
was
stuck
and
you
were
the
one
who
demonstrated
the
error
to
me
with
two
different
merge
requests
and
I
was
like
and
like
took
a
screen
recording
on
slack
and
uploaded,
and
I
was
just
like
wow.
You
know
that
emoji,
where
it's
just
like
drooling
rainbows.
B
A
A
A
A
So
I
tried
to
do
a
merge
request
on
time,
for
I
think
there
was
a
there
was
a
migration
day
friday,
where
we
were
changing
a
bunch
of
stuff
for
pajamas
for
our
our
css
stuff
and
yeah.
It's
called
pajamas
and
I
tried
to
do
something
and
the
danger
bot
showed
up
in
my
merge
request
and
was
like
just
so.
You
know
commit
messages
are
supposed
to
start
with
a
capital
letter.
A
B
B
I've
seen
it
recently
on
contributions,
because
it'll
show
up
when
someone
submits
a
contribution,
it'll
be
like
danger.
This
contribution
must
be
reviewed
by
the
following
people
before
it
gets
merged
like
it's
really
dangerous
but
helpful,
but
helpful
because
it's
like
here's
all
the
there's.
All
of
the
people.
A
A
B
Contribution
is
good
for
experience.
You
know
you
get
a
chance
to
see
a
real
world
project
to
get
insight
into.
You
know
how
different
people,
structure
and
strategize,
depending
on
your
own
experience,
like
maybe
it's
a
different
sector
that
you're
not
used
to
working
in
yeah.
You
get
all
of
that
experience
you
get
to
engage
with
people
that
you
may
not
work
with
on
a
day-to-day
basis.
It's
a
lot
of
really
good
experience.
B
It's
usually
asynchronous,
you
know,
and
so
you
it's
this
like
it's
not
like
you're
all
sitting
in
a
room
like
a
hackathon
which
is
like
a
very
different
feeling.
It's
it's
more
like
long
term
and
and
then
you
see
the
project
grow
and
your
name
stays
with
it.
You
know
and
that
contribution
exists,
which
is
also
really
exciting.
I
think
a
lot
of
people
work
on
things
at
companies
that
never
like
see
the
light
of
day
and
I
think
open
source
means
it's
meaningful
and
someone's
going
to
use
it.
B
A
A
B
Because
it's
useful
and
it
helps
you
for
a
project-
someone
else
is
probably
working
on
that
as
well.
The
other
thing
is
community,
like
you
do
get
to
work
with
these
people
asynchronously
across
the
world,
you
might
see
them
at
a
conference.
You
might
build
relationships
over
time
like
if
you're,
both
really
passionate
about
something
I
have
to
say,
like
60
of
my
like
current
friend
group,
is
all
through
open
source
projects
and
like
it's
really
amazing.
A
B
Absolutely
yeah
my
friend
group
would
be
different.
I
wouldn't
be
living
in
california
because
I
came
here
to
do
more
open
source
work.
Yeah
like
it
would
be
massively
different.
I
basically
you
know
in
drupal,
we
say
like
come
for
the
code
stay
for
the
community
and
I
like
came
for
the
community,
and
then
I
did
a
little
bit
of
code
later
and.
C
B
A
I
think
for
open
source,
especially
it's
important
to
understand
for
yourself
that,
like
your
first
contribution
is
not
going
to
define
you
and
your
first
contribution
is
not
the
way
you
contribute
necessarily,
it
takes
work
and
it
takes
time.
But
if
you
keep
at
it,
there
can
be
really
really
amazing
things
that
you
end
up
finding
you
find
community,
you
find
like-minded
people.
It
opens
up
your
world
in
a
way
that
simply
studying
and
learning
to
code
and
learning
to
write
programs
and
learning
all
these
things.
A
B
Yeah
absolutely
gives
you
that
experience
gives
you
an
edge.
Employers
know
that
you're
passionate
about
something
you
can
see
something
through
all
the
way
yeah.
Definitely
I,
when
you
said,
like
your
first
contribution,
doesn't
define
you.
I
was
like
well,
if
I
threw
you
in
a
swimming
pool
and
you
couldn't
swim
like
that,
would
not
be
fair.
A
B
B
B
B
A
Yeah,
that's
absolutely
correct,
oh
fantastic,
so
we've
talked
about
why
we're
doing
the
show.
We've
talked
about
our
experience
with
open
source,
which
you
have
tons
of
great
experience
with
drupal,
and
I
once
did
a
pull
request
on
a
joke.
I
really,
I
really
don't,
have
a
lot
of
experience
with
open
source,
but
one
thing
I
do
know,
which
is
what
we
just
talked
about,
is
how
important
open
source
can
be
for
individuals.
B
B
A
I
know
how
to
delete
things
real
good.
I
promise
I'm
great
at
it,
so
we
have
a
very
special
guest
today,
and
hopefully
this
show
is
gonna
have
several
special
guests
because
we
have
open
source
folks
on
our
team.
We
have
people
who
wrote
coding,
challenges
which
is
all
about
contributing
and
I
feel
like
we're.
Gonna
have
people
on
this
stream
all
the
time,
and
I
know
for
today's
episode.
A
A
Yeah,
you
can't
contribute
to
the
contributions
until
you've
contributed
to
the
stream
really
and
that's
pretty
common
knowledge
honestly,
but
our
very
special
guest
today
is
a
person
that
we
both
work
with
and
that
we
both
love
very
much
as
much
as
you
can
love
someone
that
you
work
with.
Ladies
and
gentlemen,
non-gender
conforming
folks
out
there.
Please
welcome
to
the
stream
christos
bacharachus.
A
D
A
A
B
A
D
A
D
Right,
I'm
the
big
boy.
Now
no,
I
was
like
I'm
christos,
I'm
greek
living
in
berlin.
I'm
really
excited
to
be
here.
I
was
listening
to
your
stories
and
I
was
like
I
felt
like
like.
I
have
a
similar
story
in
open
source.
I
wouldn't
be
here
if
it
was
all
for
officers,
because
I
started
contributing
back
in
2006
or
something
through
the
federal
project
for
various
reasons.
D
D
Is
one
of
the
most
important
things
because
not
everyone
speaks
english
speaking?
Yes,
so
you
know
elderly
people,
people
who
don't
speak
the
language,
it's
always
useful
to
have
their
software
localized
to
their
language
and
people
often
confuse
they
think
localization
is
translation,
but
it's
not
just
translation.
It's
like
trying
to
adjust
the
software
to
the
culture,
to
the
language,
to
everything
so
yeah
I
wouldn't
be
here
without
you
know
all
this
amazing
opportunity.
D
Suddenly
from
a
person
who
was
living
in
a
small
town
in
greece,
I
was
part
of
a
larger
community
of
diverse
and
inclusive
people
from
around
the
world.
There's
amazing
people
with
different
cultures
with
different
backgrounds.
I
started
to
learn.
You
know
things
about
india,
about
the
united
states
about
brazil,
which
I
was
not
aware
of.
D
You
know
when,
when
you're
like
18
years
old,
that
you
haven't
traveled,
you
don't
get
to
be
exposed
to
these
kinds
of
things
and
suddenly
I
was
part
of
a
global
community
which
I
really
loved,
and
that
was
like
the
driving
force
for
me
and
not
only
that
the
experience
you
get
you
know
you
suddenly
are
part
of
a
larger
organization.
You
work
side
to
side
with
talented
people
who
mentor
you.
D
You
help
you
evolve
to
help
you,
you
know
grow
as
an
individual,
and
this
is
something
that
I
really
really
loved
it
and
yeah.
I
thank
all
this
amazing
community
out
there,
for
I
feel
privileged
enough
to
be
part
of
that
and
be
here.
I
have
a
background
in
software
development.
Let's
say,
but
that's
not
necessarily
what
I
do
and
what
what
I've
been
doing.
E
D
The
end
of
the
day
you
know
open
source
is
not
only
about
about
writing
code,
it's
also
about
having
an
impact
contributing
to
something
that
it's
going
to
be
available
to
everyone.
People
can
take,
it
can
use,
it
can
evolve,
it
can
adjust,
it
can
solve.
A
lot
of
a
lot
of
people
needs
yeah,
I
remember
back.
Then
it
was
like
one
laptop
per
child.
It
was
a
huge
effort
for
developed
countries
in
africa,
the
last
or
small
laptop.
D
C
A
You
said
you've
been
contributing
since
2006,
so,
like
you
really
know
what's
going
on,
and
you
really
when
you
talk
about
localization
like
it's
so
important,
because
that
is
a
major
way
to
lower
barriers
for
other
people
to
come
and
be
a
part
of
it.
It's
it's
literally
like
sending
an
invitation
to
a
part
of
the
world
that
doesn't
currently
have
an
invitation.
D
That's
correct,
that's
correct,
and
there
are
a
lot
of
different
things.
People
think
that
it's
only
called
contribution
that
matter.
No,
no
localization
design,
just
sometimes
only
your
feedback.
It's
really
important.
You
know
also,
nowadays,
being
more
inclusive
and
diverse.
It
also
matters
something
that
people
don't
necessarily
think
about.
It's
like
colorblind
blindness.
It's
it's
a
thing.
You
know
some
people
are
colorblind
and
you
know
we
need
to
be.
We
need
to
have
that
in
mind
and
a
lot
of
people
who
are
contributing
be
like
hey.
D
C
A
Absolutely
so
christos
I
want
to
post
I'm
going
to
post
the
link
about
contributing
at
gitlab
before
you
came
to
get
lab.
I
want
to
think
I
think
I
remember
correctly.
You
were
at
mozilla,
that's
correct
awesome,
so
you
came
to
get
lab
and
you're
helping
us
do.
All
of
this
amazing
contribution
work
and
I've
just
posted
the
the
main
website,
about.getlab.com
backslash
community
backslash
wait
is
that
a
backslash,
a
forward,
slash.
B
E
A
D
D
That's
my
goal,
trying
to
lower
the
buyer,
trying
to
to
do
for
people
who
want
to
contribute
to
have
like
a
rewarding
a
smooth
experience,
an
experience,
that's
gonna,
be,
like,
let's
say
a
win-win
for
for
everyone,
for
both
good
luck
and
not
both
for
you,
you
know,
you're
dedicating
your
time.
You're
gonna
get
your
resources
your
free
time.
D
It's
really
important
that
you're
gonna!
You
need
to
to
get
something
as
a
return.
You
know
to
get
all
the
experience.
So
when
it
comes
to
living
in
gitlab,
we
have
a
bunch
of
different
ways
to
contribute
for
sure
development
is
one
of
this
and
we
also
have
localization
it's
something
that
we're
trying
to
spin
up
and
try
to
better
support
the
community.
There.
D
D
B
D
For
sure
I
will
for
sure
so
when
it
comes
to
contribution
opportunities,
you
know
this
is
development
and
down
down
I
mean
all.
This
is
like
a
really
high
level
way
of
how
you
can
contribute
finding
an
issue
to
contribute
to
setting
up
the
developer
environment
and
opening
a
merge
request,
which
is
like
first,
okay,
let's
go
first,
first
fighting
and
isn't
contributing.
You
know
people
always
like
from.
Where
do
you
buy?
You
begin?
It's
also
overwhelming
difficult.
D
I
hear
you,
I
have
been
there,
so
we
created
this
really
nice
table
at
the
bottom,
that
kind
of
sorts
out
the
projects,
the
opportunities
based
on
contribution
areas.
So,
if
you're
into
security,
if
you're
into
front
end
back-end
tech
and
car
writing-
or
there
are
some
mixes
on
the
website,
we
got
you
covered
so
on
the
in
the
middle
of
row,
you
can
see
like
the
in
the
middle
column,
you
can
see
the
different
guides.
A
D
All
right,
so
so
the
idea
is
that
whatever
you're
most
interested
in,
you
know
using
the
right
things
and
you
find
something
to
contribute
to.
If
you
need
help
perfect.
There's
this
help
section
you
go
here,
you
click
and
it's
gonna.
Take
you
to
a
place
where
you
can
get
some
help.
The
most
important
piece
of
help
is
like
the
contributor
github
channel.
If
you
click
on
that
you're
gonna
get
into
our
chatting
platform
where
you
can
connect
with
a
bunch
of
contributors.
This
is
where
the
magic
happens.
D
I'm
not
gonna
zoom
into
because
there's
not
a
lot
of
right.
Now.
It's
not
that
important
to
the
context,
but
the
idea
is
like
you
have
a
question
from
where
do
I
begin
top
you
type
it
here
I
like
front
end.
I
I'm
overwhelmed
because
on
the
contributing
guide,
for
example,
there
are
a
bunch
of
different
issues
and
the
community
or
kidnapping
members
they're
gonna
help
you.
Everyone
is.
B
D
Example
from
sim
card,
I
want
to
leave
it
to
good
luck.
Can
anyone
guide
me
what
should
I
have
to
do?
As
I'm
a
beginner
lee
was
like
he
already
looked
at
his
page
sent
to
the
page
thanks
if
there's
more
detailed
questions,
we're
gonna
we're
gonna,
someone
is
gonna.
Answer
like
there
are
other
people
who
want
to
contribute
right
now
and
we're
sending
them
to
the
contribute
page.
D
B
A
B
D
D
Use
labels,
but
the
thing
is
that
it's
better
to
find
the
issue
you
want
to
contribute
to
from
the
contributing
guide,
because
we
making
sure
that
all
the
issues
are
there
in
a
way
hand-picked
or
tailored
or
like
maintainers
are
like
reviewing
them
and
making
sure
that
these
are
like
easy
for
people
to
begin
with
or
yeah.
They
are.
A
E
A
D
D
So
you
have
the
step
to
reproduce
how
you,
how
you
produce
the
fact,
what
is
the
current
back
behavior
and
what
is
expected
correct,
behavior,
so
right
now,
for
example,
if
this
is
something
that
you
want
to
work
on,
there
are
also
screenshots,
which
is
highly
appreciated
from
people.
If
you
want
to
work
on,
you
just
work
on
that,
and
you
can
make
a
comment
and
be
like
hey.
I
want
to
work
on
that
and,
if
you
you're
doubting
about
okay,
what
are
the
changes
that
I
need
to
apply?
D
D
Perfect,
you
can
talk
and
be
like
hey,
hey.
I
want
to
work
on
that.
I
think
I
have
an
idea,
but
can
you
walk
me
through
or
is
this
why
I
need
to
change
and
you
can
and
normally
that
person
will
provide
you
feedback
within
the
24
24
48
hours
were
pretty
good
and
responsible,
responding
to
that
and
yeah.
This
is
you
know
you
find
something
to
work
on.
You
leave
a
comment
and
then
you
can
interact
with
elaborate
members.
We're
gonna
help
you
go
through
the
source
code
and
can
help
you.

They're
going
to
help
you
they're
gonna
guide,
you
they're,
gonna
mentor,
you
and
you're
gonna
have
the
opportunity
to
like
to
learn
from
them,
and
you
know
I
cannot
describe
that.
It's
like
you
need
to
feel
you
need
to
experience
that
something
you
can
get
so
many
new
knowledge.
So
many
new
skills
by
just
like
doing
a
super
simple,
mr
the
mentors,
are
gonna,
take
some
time
to
walk
you
through
the
changes
and
they're
gonna
help.
You
understand
how
this
lap
works
and
it's
not
about
understanding
the
product.
That's
the
product.
D
You
understand
how
developing
the
software
works.
So
you
know
there's
been
a
lot
of.
We
did
a
survey
the
other
day
and
thirty
percent
of
our
community
is
people
who
contributed
for
the
first
time
in
the
past
six
months
and
being
around
contributing,
which
is
amazing,
because
when
you
start
contributing
to
a
code
base
like
gitlab,
which
is
like
yeah,
it's
huge.
It's
huge!
It's
real
big!
It's
massive!
You
know
you,
don't
you
don't
understand
your
way
around
right.
B
D
D
Yes,
so
what
is
the
hackathon
about
the
hackathon?
It's
about
people
who
want
to
go
to
really
good
luck,
but
at
the
same
time
you
know
work
together
with
some
other
people.
They
want
to
win
some
prizes
as
well,
so
for
one
week
or
starting
on
august,
2nd
until
the
9th
you're
going
to
have
the
opportunity
to
join
the
hackathon.
It's
an
online
event.
You
don't
have
to
like
being
physically
somewhere
just
sign
up
we're
going
to
have
some
sessions
here,
going
down
going
down,
choose.
D
D
To
to
contribute,
let's,
I
think
some
company
in
the
past
was
doing
was
using
this
called
like
contributing
style.
You
know,
because
you're
gonna
get
the
swag
in
the
back.
So
if
you
have
your
marshmallows
you're
gonna
get
that
prices
important
every
contribution
matters
and
every
contribution
wins.
So
if
I
go
to
the
hackathon
on
the
even
every
mr
is
merged,
even
if
you
have
only
one
mr
mers
you're
gonna
get
something
you're
gonna
get
the
t-shirt,
because
we
appreciate
your
time.
We
appreciate
your
contribution.
E
B
D
Every
every
every
month
now
we're
gonna
extend
it
to
two
months:
we're
focusing
we're
diving
down
in
one
contribution
area
right
now
we're
doing
bucket
two
months
ago.
It
was
like
front
end
because
we
want
to
make
it
easier
for
everyone
to
contribute.
So
we
host
weekly
office
articles.
You
can
see
the
link
from
the
code
page
it's
going
to
take
you
to
the
meetup
group,
so
our
next
office
hour
is
on
june
21st.
You
can
join.
If
you
have
any
questions,
you
don't
have
to
even
to
say
hi,
you
know
be
happy
yeah.
B
Jamie
will
be
there
too.
It's
a
really
great
place
christmas.
I
get
random
questions
like
on
twitter,
where
they'll
be
like,
I
really
want
to
volunteer
for
gitlab.
What
should
I
do
and
I'm
like
please
come
to
office
hours
like
that's,
that's
a
great
place
to
ask
that
question
and
we
can
hear
more
about
you
as
well
and
so.
D
D
More
amazing
happen:
magic
happens
on
how
to
get
issue
to
contribute
to
also
the
other
day
we're
just
like
three
four
people,
and
we
just
had
a
really
good
laptop,
and
we
helped
the
first
time
today
pick
up
their
first
issue
to
contribute
to
so
yeah.
It's
like
super
chill
call
where
anyone
can
show
up.
We
can
also
just
talk
about
pokemons
or
talk
about
pizzas,.
B
A
D
A
We
have
more
people
and
we
want
you
to
come
and
get
involved,
so
we
have
more
resources
to
put
towards
it
and
so
finding
a
place
that
has
those
resources
available
is
really
important,
but
small,
open
source
projects
that
don't
have
those
resources
yet
are
also
important
to
contribute
to.
And
if
you
like,
if
you
get
in
early,
what
happens?
If
that
open
source
project
becomes.
A
B
B
A
D
D
D
C
D
D
Is
a
group
of
people
who've
been
around
for
quite
quite
a
while
and
they've
been
a
core
a
backbone
of
our
contributions
like
and
bridging
the
gitlab
team
members
with
community,
because
they've
been
actively
contributing
for
a
long
time
right
now
they
have
an
amazing
expertise
of
our
code
base
and
how
things
work.
They're,
always
there
to
support
our
contributors
and
everyone.
And
it's
like
it's
magic.
You
know
the
other
day
I
was.
D
I
was
having
a
person
reaching
out
to
me
and
they
were
like
hey.
Can
I
get
someone
from
gitlab
respond
to
my
questions?
I've
been
posting
on
the
on
the
chat
and
I
get
this
this
bot
replying
to
me
on
non-stop,
like
or
really
fast
with
something,
but
it's
a
boat
right
and
I'm
like
no
that's
lit
ticket.
That's
a
courty
member.
C
D
Speaking
of
lead,
can
I
again
quickly
share
my
screen
really
yeah,
absolutely
absolutely
so
let
me
find
the
right,
the
right,
okay,
perfect.
So
the
thing
is
that
so
we
we
appreciate
everyone's
contribution
and
every
time
we
have
a
major
release
at
gitlab.
We
always
like
the
github
members
vote
for
an
mvp,
a
person,
a
contributor
whose,
in
mrs
contribution,
have
had
a
significant,
significant
impact
on
this
gitlab
release.
Last
time,
for
example,
it
was
lee
ticket,
but
what
I'm
trying
to
say
here,
it's
not
about
justly
it's
about.
You
know.
D
We
appreciate
and
value
contributions
and
we're
trying
to
you
know
to
to
help
support
the
way
that
we
can
to
make
it
a
rewarding
experience,
and
at
least
the
less
we
can
do
is
like
you
know,
share
your
amazing
contribution
with
us
on
our
in
our
release
post,
so
yeah
yeah
shout
out
to
all
the
mvps
firm.
That's
been
there
for
quite
a
while.
Now.
B
A
Heck
yeah,
so
we
are
running
low
on
time
now,
but
like
really
christos,
is
there
anything
else
you
can
tell
us
about
about
contributing.
We
all
we
know
about
the
hackathon
coming
up,
we're
excited,
but
any
sort
of
last
words
about
contributing
about
what
what
it's
like
or
what
people
should
do
if
they're,
if
their
first
step,
I
guess.
D
Someone
has
a
how
might
have
it's
a
friend
who
is
giving
away
spot.
I
want
that
friend
fatima,
you
know
people
so
no
just
like
what
I'm
going
to
say
is
that,
regardless,
whether
it's
gitlab
or
something
else
just
don't
be
afraid
contributing
for
your
first
time,
I
am
I'm
pretty
sure
it's.
It
feels
intimidating.
It's
a
new
intimidating
experience.
I
know
I've
been
there.
D
It
took
me
like
six
months
to
be
able
to
do
my
first
contribution
and
to
feel
comfortable
about
doing
myself,
contribution,
localizing,
just
localizing,
a
federal
project
for
risk,
for
example,
she
got
for
help.
Something
else
that
I
always
say
to
everyone
is
like
there
are.
No
stupid
questions
feel
free
to
ask
whatever
you
want
to
whomever
you
want.
Everyone
is
going
to
be
there.
It's
going
to
be
supportive.
There
is
always
we
always
have
some
positive
intent.
