Diversify Tech: Diversify Tech is for people like me who are underrepresented in tech. It's a central place where we can find scholarships, events, speaking opportunities, and jobs. It is also for all of us in the tech industry who want to make it a welcoming and inclusive place. Companies can learn about diversity, equity, and inclusion as well as connect with candidates looking for jobs. Allies can support and advocate for underrepresented people in tech. Make sure to join their newsletter at diversifytech.co!Honeybadger: Let's face it, your code is going to have errors, even code written by a kick-ass developer such as yourself. When bad things happen, it's nice to know that Honeybadger has your back.

Honeybadger makes you a DevOps hero by combining error monitoring, uptime monitoring, and chron monitoring into a single, easy to use the platform, all for way less than you're probably paying now.

Honeybadger monitors and sends error alerts in real-time with all the context needed to see what's causing the error and where it's hiding in your code so you can quickly fix it and get on with your day.

The included uptime and chron monitoring also let you know when your external services are having issues or your background jobs go AWOL or silently fail.

Go to Honeybadger.io and discover how Starr, Josh, and Ben created a 100% bootstrapped monitoring solution. Why is this important? Self-funding means they only answer to you, the developer, rather than a venture capital overlord.
