Book cover of "Designing Data-Intensive Applications, 2nd edition". It has a similar wild boar on the cover as the first edition, but it uses O'Reilly's new cover design, and the boar is now slightly colourised.
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. 😅

Jepsen and Antithesis worked together to write a glossary for anyone building, testing, and operating distributed systems. It covers the basics of concurrency, consistency models and phenomena, faults, and some testing approaches:

A new #Jepsen report! We tested early builds of Capela, an unreleased distributed programming environment, and found twenty-two issues, including four language problems, fourteen crashes or non-fatal panics, performance degradation, and three safety issues including lost update […]
I have lots of Thoughts about technology marketing (that led to a lot of the way Rust did things, and was borne out of… previous experiences) but the biggest one is: you gotta define yourself on your own terms rather than in opposition to something else

If you read ✨one post✨ this year about instrumentation, OTel, logs, tracing, or observability 2.0, make it this one. It's just that fucking good.
It has code samples. It is also a great overview of your options in the o11y 2.0 space, incl vendors, OSS and hybrid.

I'm curious how other people are designing systems that do a lot of scheduling/monitoring work.
What I landed on might be considered heavy handed?
But I'm pretty happy with its development, testing, cost, and HA properties/tradeoffs.

the bsky team should start monitoring twitter's infra for outages, so they know when to scale up
I really miss working on a team. With the right people, even the really challenging times can be good.

Nothing exemplifies a complete failure to understand the point of science like demanding to settle a scientific issue through the medium of emotionally persuasive public shouting
that last part is so true, also applicable to building relationships based on a lie. Not worth it to be liked or loved for something you are not
I'm tired of explaining the difference in classified mishandling between Trump, Biden, Pence, and Clinton. So, I wrote it all down in this post, complete with footnotes. Now I hope to never speak on this again. https://infosec.exchange/@jschuh/110551298514321829
do you like anything in its place?
Inside the Courtroom At his arraignment, Donald Trump was 20 feet from Jack Smith, the special counsel. But they exchanged not a word.

Reddit blackout is already starting. Subreddits are going private and 403s are coming in from RSS feeds:
My former team at Etsy is hiring! Work in Rust with Tantivy on a cloud-native retrieval system. This one is for a Sr Staff Eng, and I'm told a Sr Eng role is also coming up jobs.smartrecruiters.com/Etsy2/743999911916518-se...
We have like five air purifiers now :-/
More options for the Twitter diaspora? :-/
"One of Meta’s top executives showed employees a preview of the company’s upcoming Twitter competitor [...] The new standalone app will be based on Instagram and integrate with ActivityPub, the decentralized social media protocol."
When this happened in Seattle, I felt very different after a few days. It was very noticeable. Even if you stay inside, smoke inhalation is terrible for you.

cool, was able to change my handle here to @timf.dev
Thinking about high call-rate services with purely serverless APIs, and tried to be realistic about the cost model.
In my experience, there's a constant hum of throttles and authentication errors, and we should try to predict and model those if we can. Better: first class support from vendors.
