@stephenbelanger.com this is super super cool!! thank you @bnb.im for sharing it with me :)
I just showed this to a bunch of other otel maintainers at KubeCon and everyone was very impressed with it. Going to try and hack around on this a bit myself, i miss writing swift!
i wrote a little thing about some of the work im doing in OpenTelemetry for my co, would love it if you checked it out! Let me know what you think usetero.com/blog/policie...
I also look at the std lib code on codeberg. This used to be easier on GitHub because they had a functional search, but luckily the package structure is very sensible so I can mostly navigate well.
Been learning zig the past few months and the docs from the standard library aren’t great other than as a reference. zig.guide was recently updated to the latest version and are helpful
if u need a place to develop, my fav is accurate photoshop in south slope! they have the best turnaround time in the city and are incredibly nice
ah of course! I read this prior to going to amsterdam and I remember this line in particular resonating
"every stone was bought with a dram of someone’s blood, a pinch of pepper, the sap of a rubber tree, a child bought and sold." Thanks for sharing.
Tal, loved this piece! I was wondering if you had seen/read anything about other pieces of the region's history linked with its cuisine? I watched this video about the history of nutmeg, which I thought of while reading this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mqe...
Not sure if you’re looking for an editor, but the Zed editor has a great integration with Claude code and supports most everything you need.
i only do docker postgres now, i've gotten bit too often by running it through homebrew and services. Docker lets me spin it up and destroy it so much more easily.
docker run -d \
--name postgres \
-e POSTGRES_USER=postgres \
-e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres \
-p 5432:5432 \
postgres
All of this is mostly moot discourse given plenty of voices are still there and trying their best. My opinion is that attempting to do so is futile and large figures should instead encourage their followings to leave rather than letting hate speech become a normalized part of civil discourse
I instead question why someone would want to stay? From friends who are still there, most of what I hear are complaints about bots, degraded performance, grok slop and more. What good is a site that is poisoning you? If you’re on a sinking ship beyond repair, when do you get off?
Instead, nazis and bigots are replatformed and amplified. Harassment is rampant and sanctioned. Is it worth attempting to spread a message in conditions like this? I imagine most people who left the site permanently would say it’s not.
i believe people should do is what was attempted initially - a brand boycott to force change. Does Nike want an ad next to a nazi post? Probably not. If you could force the platform to become a more level playing field then maybe people would return. (Obv not gonna happen)
I’m not convinced it matters and I’m not sure even if it did it would solve anything.
My understanding is that many prominent voices still post plenty there. Of those that don’t, it’s probably moral reasons and that’s something I wouldn’t want someone to compromise on.
A little tip for caramel - you can put a tiny bit in a glass of cold water if you want to test the final consistency. It’s no substitute for a thermometer but if you were in a pinch without one it’s helpful
ha all good, had the exact same page situation happen to me post migration hence the custom implementation here github.com/lightstep/ot...
Specifically IgnoreCollisions is one of the big improvements, sacrificing some correctness for a boost.
This was a massive perf issue for us that forced us to make a custom SDK to bypass the API to allow us to do this work in advance. Without that bypass we saw an untenable hit that gave us pause during our statsd to otel migration. I believe there’s work being done for multivar metrics which may help
Unfortunately this is a known thing. My colleague and I attempted to fix this to no avail. If you read jmacd’s response here, a large performance hit is the large amount of allocations during runtime for attributes.

Biggest gripe with metrics beyond just temporality and aggregation is honestly how brittle metric names are and all of the edges that exist in renaming. Combine that with these problems (what happens when a renamed the temporality changes and then later the metric names!) and you get quite an ache.
I tried and struggled to use it. The way it did profiles, PIP, and Split View never worked right. I also found some sites to be fully broken. I use zen browser and like it a lot more.
okay got the most basic version of this done, i can make reviews and query a map. Now i need to hook these things together and we're in business.
okay i figured out how to improve a lot of this and its feeling slightly better. i can now do CRUD via the UI for reviews and ratings. Ill need to rework tagging and now also query OSM for autofilling location details.
truly!! all of this feels so awfully verbose. I would love to know how i am fucking up here lol
im definitely using zod incorrectly, the typescript ecosystem frustrates the hell out of me with its wacky ducktyping. It lets me make too many mistakes while also being overly constrained.
okay i got locations creating! Eventually I'll populate / autofill with OSM data but for now whatever! Next making reviews. Trying to figure out how to embed tag creation but the way i did the modeling makes this kinda annoying. For now i'm going to skip it.
okay we're so back! i return to my review wizard and need to get these db calls to work. something about the prisma-zod-generator is making this a bit challenging...
Realized that I’m taking the midnight train FROM Georgia tonight
I’ve been lacking on this cause it’s just been all day conference all week BUT I return to my train adventures tonight. Which means tomorrow I return to the hacks
THANK YOU, sitting here editing a photo to distract myself
DB Calls have been made, but I'm nervous as hell for my talk today. Kept waking up in the middle of the night with a nightmare that i was two hours late
