Missing GopherCon EU due to being 9,000km away.

He will protect us. 🤞

Japan is famous for vending machines, but this is one of the best.

I’m in Japan for #kubecon, sightseeing for a bit before heading to Tokyo.

Not sure if this translation is accurate.

Day 3 of trying to create one (1) EC2 instance to check something for my KubeCon Japan talk. Previously: Your account is disabled since you haven't used it in a while. You must turn on MFA before we consider your request. Today: Quotas!

I will be speaking at KubeCon Tokyo on June 16th, trying to shed some light on what goes on inside your servers. grafana.com/events/kubec...

Trying to think: what is the opposite of a “noisy neighbour” on a server? A task which is not using its full allocation of resources so you can burst into that space. “Weak neighbour”?

The way people talk about MCP reminds me of CGI, the Common Gateway Interface. A mystical thing that would unlock a world of fantastic possibilities.

I finally got round to submitting proposals to GopherCon UK! Fingers crossed that the selection committee likes one of them. www.gophercon.co.uk

Working on a new @prometheus.io homepage (very WIP screenshots) based on @nextjs.org. I built the old homepage >10 years ago and back then I really liked it, but now it looks so old-school (and is outdated under the hood) that a new site was really overdue. Also, we'll have syntax highlighting ;)

🚀 Grafana 12 is here! At #GrafanaCON we revealed a new chapter of features: Observability as code Git Sync Dynamic dashboards New Grafana APIs, Terraform provider & CLI tool Themes SCIM user and team provisioning SQL expressions Grafana Alerting updates Traces and Profiles Drilldown GA & more!

The use of "air-gapped" to mean "connected via a proxy" is an example of semantic shift. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semanti...

👏 That wraps up #GrafanaCON day 0! Shout out to the learners and builders for getting hands-on with dashboards, #observability as code, datasources and more. See you all in < 12 hours for day 1. Join the keynote livestream at 9 am PT or access the recording: youtube.com/live/JYVf-Z3...

100% tariff on what exactly? Hasn’t he heard of Hollywood accounting?

New experimental garbage collector for Go programs! github.com/golang/go/is...

Copilot reviewed 152 out of 155 changed files in this pull request and generated no comments. Fucking coward.

I’m in Prague!

Come see me and Chris Leavoy on Thursday at #kubecon This talk is about the biggest Prometheus I've ever seen. Lots of low-level detail about what goes on inside, plus what we did about it. Or find me on the Grafana booth - number S462. sched.co/1txHp

Come see me and @bernot.dev on Wednesday at #kubecon This talk is about extending the Vertical Pod Autoscaler to cope with hetrogenous loads. Or find me on the Grafana booth - number S462. sched.co/1tx8F
