Front-end web developer at Paravel and co-host of the ShopTalk Show podcast; blogs at daverupert.com.
Started watching “I bought an abandoned storage unit” videos and I can’t think of any job I’d enjoy less. The initial score would be a huge dopamine hit, but pricing the junk, hauling the junk, storing the junk, paying to trash the junk, selling the junk, and shipping the junk to people all sounds awful to me. They’re fun videos, but feels like the sad sewers of materialism to me. Related

Bluesky Years ago, I predicted columnar storage would remake the landscape of observability. I thought a wave of new columnar-backed tools would displace the creaky old three pillars model with tech that is faster, easier, cheaper, better in every way. Well, I was half right. charity.wtf

x.com Years ago, I predicted that columnar storage would remake the landscape of observability tools. I thought we'd see a wave of new columnar-backed observability tools grow up to displace the old, creaky, three pillars model with tech that is faster, easier, cheaper, and better in every way. I was half right. Observability vendors, you are chasing the wrong ball. Datadog's great weakness is not their price point, it's their product. @ClickHouseDB, good job. You don't make me want to stab my eyes out. In this market landscape, that's high praise. charity.wtf

They tried to take the Docker API which worked really well for one node and expand it across multiple systems and it was not the right API to scale to another type of thing that we needed. And so they kept trying. They tried to add storage. They tried to add networking but the Docker API was never meant for that.

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
