Season 2 of Peacemaker, the first original TV series under the new DCU banner, is nearly here. It's been three-and-a-half years of waiting, and the new episode run kicks off on Thursday on HBO Max. I hope you're excited, because I sure am. The first season gave John Cena's helmet-wearing villain (previously seen in James Gunn's The Suicide Squad) the spotlight and, in turn, we watched Peacemaker -- also known as Chris Smith -- as he struggled with the bad decisions and abusive demons of his pas

Our senior DevOps engineer thought I'd lost my mind. He didn't join a startup to do sales. So he promised me 5 calls and I guaranteed he'd never have to do it again. It was a bit of a back-and-forth but I strongly believe it fundamentally changed how we build products.
