Having too many options can also be a blocker and sometimes makes sense to narrow them down 🤪

Just managed to catch up with latest @pragmaticengineer.com chat with @bcantrill.bsky.social and as expected it didn't disappoint! I loved the history of computers, cloud and other awesome stories. But this was an amazing thought: "Mindset needs to be not to create as much as possible, but rather...

That's probably one of the worst UX ever; so either an online event or an email where they sent you a QR code to follow a link 🤦🙃

"GitHub reversed its decision. The Microsoft-owned developer site has taken to X to admit it might have made a mistake by unilaterally announcing plans to charge people for using their own hardware to host runners."

GitHub walks back plan to charge for self-hosted runners

I'll say here what I left unstated in my @monktoberfest.com talk: AWS in particular is in a state of cultural collapse because they have done exactly this -- and their RTO mandate has served to decimate organizational trust.
Another awesome @monktoberfest.com talk by @bcantrill.bsky.social ! It's absolutely worth watching the whole talk, but I think the last bit is great way to wrap up, where Bryan talks about broken institutional and organisational trust using RTO example:

This feels like spot on what we've been observing in the industry lately 🫠
What if AI is not a general purpose technology but is a *generally applied* technology (applied in contexts where it both is and isn't useful) and hence is now an ambient factor, something that gets forced into everything, whether it's needed or not.
"AI appears to be a foundational general-purpose technology — akin to electricity or the steam engine — we should anticipate that its use will continue to broaden across all aspects of human endeavor... helping to tackle some of humanity’s greatest challenges." /1

Amazing talk by @katecrawford.bsky.social mapping empires and raising important topics on #AI! Good point about "Slopaganda" as cultural shift. With "feral capitalism" where we move fast, but have no breaks. She also talks about training on synthetic data leading to potential model collapse 📉
In her Long Now Talk, @katecrawford.bsky.social argues that AI has created a metabolic rift: massive data collection that acts like poor nutrition at planetary scale. However, this is something we’ve seen before, dating back to the 1500s.

If running self-hosted runners in GitHub, there is a new fee coming: "On March 1, 2026, we are introducing a new $0.002 per-minute GitHub Actions cloud platform charge that will apply to self-hosted runner usage. Any usage subject to this charge will count toward the minutes included in your plan."

What a time to be alive 🙃🫠

"slop" is 2025 Word of the Year. The dictionary defines slop as "digital content of low quality that is produced usually in quantity by means of artificial intelligence."

We should also get an emoji for this 😆

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.

The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

Some great quotes by @kelseyhightower.com during the chat: "Just because there is a lot of choice, it doesn't mean you have to choose them all! As professionals having good discipline is probably more important than just curiosity." Also: "Tech is a team sport, you need empathy and listen to people"
Good video capturing journey of our industry, and the following topics: from servers to containers and serverless, #DevOps vs. #Platform engineering, of course #Kubernetes, of course #AI too 😜, tool sprawl/complexity and what's next? Worth a watch and Kelsey sharing his wisdom and experience!
It's rare that I get to reflect back on my entire tech career and my philosophy towards work and life, but this interview captures it perfectly. One of the few recordings of myself I've watched end to end. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdUb...

Researchers have found two new vulnerabilities in React Server Components while attempting to exploit the patches last week.

These are new issues, separate from the critical CVE last week. The patch for React2Shell remains effective for the Remote Code Execution exploit.
