Jenkins Eternal
Time is a flat circle.
Years ago we built a Jenkins. And things were good (lol no). A skilled engineer took it to MGP, and there it stayed. Yet I vowed, even then, that it should be destroyed.
I tried drone. I was rejected. I told the build engineer how to kill it. Never prioritized. The engineer became sisyphus and Jenkins his rock. Times were hard.
Undeterred I volunteered four weeks on loan to a team. I Dojo’d Jenkins. We made it a phoenix. We blessed it with containers. Developer velocity skyrocketed. Years long ideas grew fruit. Things were good (fr).
The work was done. Jenkins was dead. I never have to touch it again.
Now the opportunity has arisen again. The build team needs a leader.
Time is a flat circle.
