Dawn of the final night

John Oliver on Prediction Markets is a treat.

If you’re a programmer and struggle with hand pain, I am happy to talk to you about your options re: hands-free coding setups. It’s possible to code entirely hands-free. It’s a steep learning curve but you can do it. There’s also good hybrid setups to reduce the load on your hands DM me any time 🫶

Powerful statement earlier today from @lookitup.baby in support of a pause in evictions for Minneapolis families in this time of crisis. www.youtube.com/live/vpRmCJE...

We hear of "nine nines" of uptime as a goal for a system, but today @ahl.bsky.social and I are going to be joined by the @oxide.computer team to talk about a subsystem that had that uptime -- and how it wasn't nearly enough. Join us for a wild, multi-year debugging tale! discord.gg/QrcKGTTPrF?e...

Stared at a CFP for a bit today and nothing is hitting that spark for me. I've spent a lot of time in weird spaces this last year and the last few months bootstrapping Rust at work for everyone has been a joy but a talk it does not make.

I now join the chorus of folks looking for a job. I’ve got some software and systems engineering expertise, some AI/ML expertise, and I’ve been in a business seat for the past few years, meaning I know a lot more about how GTM, sales, etc works than I did. Let me know if you’d like to talk.

The second edition of Designing Data-Intensive Applications, by myself and @chris.blue, is finished and sent off to the printers! Ebooks should be available in the next week, and print books in 3–4 weeks. Sigh of relief. 😅 (BTW, this is a good opportunity to support your favourite local bookshop!)

@imdanielholt.bsky.social Good luck today!! Sad we're missing it

Ikoria is still one of my favorite Magic sets and that explains a lot I think 😂.

ICYMI: it's possible in @kubernetes.io 1.33+ to update pod resource limits in-place without recreating the pod! kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/c... This *dramatically* lowers the amount of effort it takes to do load testing and capacity planning. You can just take away resources until breakage occurs.

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.33 [beta] (enabled by default: true) This page explains how to change the CPU and memory resource requests and limits assigned to a container without recreating the Pod. T...

Got our tickets to Richmond DLC. ❤️

Got second at the sealed tournament today for Lorcana. Another tournament tomorrow to end the release week.

Driving home from Milwaukee DLC this morning on 3 hours of sleep 😪. Went 4-3 (not 5-3 that I told @imdanielholt.bsky.social sorry 😂 and it was great to meet you!) at the main tournament with dogs 🧡 💚. Didn't make day 2 but I did better than I expected and didn't get my last loss til the end.

Went 4-3 yesterday, but was a pretty good run with the dogs.

Already seen so many pro players I am giddy.

Got offered a full set of duals from Damaged but playable to Moderate played. Having a hard time deciding if I want to pull that trigger or not.

String => Sum Type Your logs are most definitely a finite set of types that they boil down to. They're now an attribute on the span.

Good public incident write-up from UptimeLabs. Quick notes: * A patch-level dependency update unexpectedly changed behavior. * Failure mode: saturation * The role of health checks (a tool to improve availability!) in enabling this incident. uptimelabs.io/when-fast-fl...

Hit up over 10 local game stores while in Colorado so far in 2 days and it's an absolute joy to just go to each of these.

Hear me out. This but with LLMs

Worth a read!

Admittedly I would probably say this, but I thought this article was a very insightful analysis of the problems with building AI agents, based on real experience. (Jury currently out on the _solutions_ but at least the problems seem clearly outlined.) utkarshkanwat.com/writing/bett...

I'm back on my bullshit of wondering if I can convince and gather a bunch of you to join me here for a conference across spectrums of interest.

Probably a lukewarm take, but I think many of us in the space around systems, especially those socio-technical systems and observability have quite a good outlook with how much "less than great" things look to be coming our way.
