Truly enjoyed listening to this version of the Prodcast. I love @sfurino.bsky.social's passion for systems and how we can codify service expectations to ensure customer happiness (my paraphrasing, don't @ Sal).

Donald Trump is attacking me because he is desperate to distract from his war on working people. We must and we will fight back.

Hulu cutting out while streaming the Oscar’s in the final awards is exactly why reliability is the most important feature of any product. It’s necessary to be aware of how your uses experience your software and take automated actions in realtime to mitigate. #reliability #SRE #SLOs

Remember it's not your engineering, product or business teams that set your reliability targets, IT'S YOUR USERS!

This is hitting me hard today.
i get asked a lot, “what do you want out of a relationship?” but
i think the real question is, “who do you want to be in your relationships?”
for me, the answer is that i want to be silly, and giving, and affectionate. i want to be gentle, and soft.
i want to be safe enough to be myself.
