I really enjoyed this chat with Justin and Autumn. Some old memories from Google, some parenting talk, me once again arguing that Java and Kubernetes are both Good, Actually.

I posted about this cool page some time ago, and now the author @samwho.dev of the page appeared in one of my favourite podcasts as a guest @fafo.fm. Dots are unexpectedly connected in such a nice way! Enjoyed the interview a lot.

Today's episode with the incredible @samwho.dev is out now! Time to fire up your podcachers https://buff.ly/4bdfoT5

listening to @jaz.bsky.social on @fafo.fm context switch rapidly between talking about databases to hardware to observability to basically every level of the stack is sort of inspirational. its a master class in engineering for your specific requirements and picking the right sized tool.

It's not even a hard decision.

This was a really interesting episode! First time listening to the podcast, will definitely have to check out more episodes.

#Bluesky has experienced rapid growth for over a year, evolving from developing the AT protocol to building it and welcoming 30 million users. Alongside this expansion, the team has continuously optimized, re-architected, and added features, ensuring the platform evolves with its growing community.

podcasts.apple.com/se/podcast/f... check out this pod episode on @fafo.fm about Bluesky’s scaling up when Brazil moved from the dead bird to bsky and when users scrambled off dead bird and onto bsky around the election. Very interesting ep! @justingarrison.com @withenoughcoffee.com @jaz.bsky.social

Great episode, great podcast! Bluesky shows that a small team with motivated experts can achieve anything. Thx @jaz.bsky.social for the humble talk about the amazing things that they achieve.

If you want to hear more about bluesky’s scaling, infrastructure, architecture, tales from the trenches and just the history of @jaz.bsky.social this is a really informative and fun listen

The unofficial Fork Around and Find Out mascot

fascinating listen on Bluesky scaling: From 100 of new users/day to Brazil's millions/weekend to post-X surge. Realtime infrastructure decisions vs theoretical 10X architecture planning

I talked to the @fafo.fm folks about what it's like scaling from 100k -> 30M users in ~18 months. It was pretty fun :) There's a bit of Jaz lore in there as well as some Bsky lore like the "magic growth prediction spreadsheet" that has somehow stood the test of time and helped us plan for scale.

It's finally here! Episode 8 with @jaz.bsky.social all about how @bsky.app managed to scale to 30 MILLION users without blowing their budget on the cloud 💸 fafo.fm/8
