Much better than Bluesky, just sayin

Blueski

Vai is the reason I picked up a guitar. I remember seeing him in crossroads and going “yep I wanna be that dude” :)

Nice! I haven’t listened to the OG’s in quite a while but I can do death metal once in a while. Annihilator drumming is insane! I’m primarily into bm/blackened crust/blackened * - (crushing) atmosphere!

LTD! My favorite guitar is an LTD too, also 7 string. I’m a sucker for LP shape so that is a + too

Achievement unlocked - successfully prep and start smoking brisket 30 minutes before standup. Now I smell like smoke :|

I learned that freenode is no more just 2 days ago when I wanted to ask for advice about some apache project... Is efnet still around? That place was a total shitshow...

There's dozens of us!!! I dabble with music production + play guitar as well - probably would be a musician if this tech thing wasn't working out ;) Favorite genre/bands, go!

What's up with Canadian BM? Was it always good? Spectral Wound, Wake, Departure, Wormwitch, wtf.

I'm not a snob, I just know what is good music 🤷

Reminds me of this

Not bad for a quick hack!

When is the expiration date?

It depends on if they passionately advocated for 1 bbq place over another

Thanks man! Looking forward to it!

I thought IRC will be one of those things that just refuses to die. Nope.

Hack the planet!

Have you migrated from Kafka to Pulsar?

Apparently Pulsar has support for Kafka protocol? What's the catch? Sidenote, I wrote up some initial notes on Pulsar based on the perspective of a golang dev: gist.github.com/dselans/eaf905647b96fb66...

Where my engineers/metal musician/ex-skateboarder community at? No? … ok

- Distributed systems
- Golang
- Kubernetes
- Data center peeps
- Metal
- Ex-skateboarder dads
- Introverted but can hold a conversation

For future followers, I’m a huge advocate for event driven tech, event sourced architectures and generally anything distributed. Can spend hours talking about scalable software and systems architectures. Oh, and metal.

Well hello future friends and acquaintances! Looking forward to musing about tech and metal :)
