NEWS — The Oregon Department of Human Services has issued 100% of November SNAP benefits, per an alert on their website. I've received reports that the funds have already hit recipients' EBT accounts.

Kubernetes is the sum of all the shell scripts, and practices, system administrators have cobbled together over time, presented as a single system behind a declarative set of APIs.

I wonder how many airlines have offered to pay air traffic controller's salaries during the shutdown, which has to be cheaper than canceling flights or refunding tickets.
Yeah so they’re cutting flights at the 40 busiest airports starting with 4% on Friday and ramping up to 10% through the weekend, and that includes ATL. If you’re attending #KubeCon and you aren’t threat modeling around this and making contingency plans already, strongly recommend starting now
So, uh, KubeCon attendees: how we feeling about the threat model of them shutting down the airspace? Are we all moving to Atlanta

This event kicks off in about 30 mins. Here is one of the slides from the deck we will walk through today as we attempt to find a solution to the cross config problem, which requires us to build configuration consensus across multiple tools.

I've asked the team behind Cue to come prepared to discuss the limits of configuration management when dealing with different configuration systems, for example, using Terraform, Kubernetes, and GitHub Actions to manage a single project, something that occurs more often than you would think.
Final call! 📣
Join us with @kelseyhightower.com tomorrow, Tuesday, Nov 4, at 17:00 UTC to explore the future of configuration with our Configuration Control Plane, and turn configuration from a source of risk into a source of reliability!

How I’m going to the holidays when people expect gifts. Kelsey made it possible to bin gifts. Save money. Simple.
I don't celebrate the holidays by spending money. I celebrate the holidays by spending time. Community over consumerism.

If you take away the land, you take away people's natural ability to feed themselves. As a result, if you don't work, you don't eat, turns into, if you don't work for me, you don't eat.

I don't buy the AI narrative around prosperity for all. There is plenty of money to go around yet it tends to flow to the top. I can't imagine a world where those in control of AI, assuming it actually works, will resist charging an ever increasing subscription fee cementing the haves and have nots.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

This was one of the best meetups I've ever spoken at. My talk was good, but the 2+ hours of Q/A was better. Thoughtful questions led to thoughtful answers, and it felt like the entire room was locked in the whole time.
I'm winding down what feels like a world tour in Amsterdam next week. I'll be speaking at the @cloudnativenl.bsky.social meetup hosted by @jetbrains.com on October 23rd. And the best part, it's going to be an open Q/A, which means we can cover a wide range of topics.
