I know #chatops is a bit dated by todays standards of freshness but I really am sick of reading a Jenkins message or alertmanager message and then having to login to an interface and do a bunch of routine stuff. I think #robusta is probably the most recent thing I’ve looked at (a few years ago). Anyone have suggestions #devops #slack #jenkins

#Coffee is in danger. Starbucks is working on solutions

"Firl thinks that in order for coffee to be sustainable, there needs to be a shift away from the industrialized coffee farm model. 'We need to bring coffee back to its forest roots,' she said, to promote a healthy #ecosystem.

"In 2021, Starbucks made a commitment to invest in forest protection and restoration and set other climate-related goals. Burns described the company’s breeding program as an 'ongoing' process, saying the company will keep trying out new varietals to adapt to #ClimateChange.

"Other coffee varieties, like #robusta and #liberica, hold up better than arabica in these difficult conditions. But coffee makers tend to avoid these varieties because consumers like how arabica tastes and smells, Cornell’s Gomez noted."

The article describes these new varieties: "One makes coffee with notes of melon, honey and sugar cane, while another boasts a citrus, herbal, floral flavor."

Both of those sound good to me!
