I’ve been pretty quiet on the socials lately, mostly because I’m heads down on some Secret But Super Cool Stuff. BUT I’ve been doing a podcast where I interview the most interesting people at the intersection of Kubernetes and AI. Here’s the latest, with the mighty @boredabdel.bsky.social 🎙️

New AI Kubernetes Show: @boredabdel.bsky.social (Google, KubeCon co-chair) covers what LLM inference on Kubernetes actually requires, from routing to autoscaling to agentic security www.buoyant.io/ai-kubernete...

"The forest ended. Glad I was To feel the light, and hear the hum Of bees, and smell the drying grass And the sweet mint." Remembering the poet Edward Thomas, who was killed in action on this day in 1917 in The Battle of Arras.

Thanks for always having concrete talks and contributing to the Rust ecosystem along with shipping a functional piece of software with valuable design intent :) Discovered Linkerd at the KCCNC EU 2018 in Copenhagen, loved the talks of you folks, and coming back for more at every KCCNC!

Great writeup of my #kubecon Linkerd talk just now from @horgix.fr !

Always love some Buoyant talk on Linkerd at #KubeCon #CloudNativeCon - though I missed the one by Flynn at the colocated events. So here I am listening to @williammorgan.me sharing new "And I'm gonna talk about AI because i basically have to in order to be there" damn, that's a sad reality

signs left at alex pretti’s memorial in minneapolis: “i love you so much / i’ll miss you forever” photo with a friend, “i would have done the same. RIP alex,” a stethoscope and “we’ll take it from here, alex” and a tshirt for the minnesota nurses association

TIL the original lyrics to Deck the Halls are awesome and “don we now our gay apparel” is temperance movement bullshit

En route to Kubecon. No talks to give this time (a first for many years) but I somehow seem to have a jam-packed schedule despite that. Looking forward to catching up with customers and friends alike!

Trump’s inevitable crash‑out at 3 AM on Truth Social about this election is going to be legendary

Fourteen years later, I *still* think one of the best ways for us to repudiate Cheney's legacy of torture would be to recognize and honor the courageous soldiers and public servants who exposed the torture policies and tried to end them. www.nytimes.com/2011/04/28/o...

You flip the price tag over. It's affordable You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. trib.al/9Sxu9IN

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

NEW: A 20-year federal prosecutor, fired abruptly this week even as he lead case against Abbey Gate bomber, warns his colleagues: the Trump administration is sacrificing national security to purge Trump's perceived adversaries. w/ @dnlbrns www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Don’t believe anyone who tells you that intelligence shows anything “without a doubt,” but even if the intelligence was water-tight, this strike was still murder. No law permits the deliberate, premeditated killing of civilians.

I did not expect this kind of fire from Eliot Cohen, but he has Hegseth absolutely pegged www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

ICE Nazis in Chicago tried to kidnap a food delivery worker but my man was too fast for those slow bastards

“You cannot plan with America... You can’t even talk with it, because today and tomorrow and the next day it will only ever be having the same conversation: Whatever a sundowning and already world-historically stupid fascist said to evade accountability for whatever recent crime he was asked about”

It took Trump 60 minutes to murmur out a wet "that's all, folks!" before the UN Tuesday. Given that he was talking to himself and no one outside the greater Trumpiverse can hear him, it's the only thing he could say.
