Hi! 🩡🩷🀍🩷🩡

I'm Asherah, a backend engineer at GitLab. I spend a lot of time caring for our Markdown stack.

Please feel free to set up a coffee chat if you want to say hi! I think I can be a bit awkward at times but that's okay. I'm in Melbourne, Australia (UTC+10/11).

For Serious Businessβ„’, prefer async methods: @ me in a thread on GitLab, Slack me (or #g_knowledge), or an email. Sync calls are OK if higher bandwidth is absolutely necessary, but I'm not at my best in them and prefer having time to consider and respond.

Here you can find a summary of what I'm working on and what I'm tracking, generated regularly from my Pipa Index. For more information, read below!

This is a reduced view, showing just the "status" column, last updated date, and list of linked URLs.

An item being here doesn't mean I'm necessarily working on it or own it; it may just be something I want to keep tabs on, or relates to some work of mine. On the other hand, if I do own something or am working on it, it'll be here!

Do not be alarmed. Entries are excluded from this view if they link to any confidential issues, or any issues or MRs in any non-public project. If you can see it here, it's public.

Closed entries are only shown from the current quarter. This isn't meant to reflect anything other than what's in my augmented working memory right now.

If you see one of these emoji in the Status column, it reflects the mergeability checks of the first-listed MR in the URLs list: πŸ™…β€β™€οΈ (check failed), ⏳ (checks pending), πŸŽ‰ (all checks passed!).

The script to generate the below table is in this repo.
