Okay, where did Google hide the "fuck off, go away" toggle for Gemini in Workspaces this week?
They're rapidly running out of goodwill to burn.

📢 Calling all #PlatformEngineering folks: Do you practice Platform as a Product?
I've been talking about Platform as a Product for the past few years horovits.medium.com/a0cad2cdc819..., and I'm glad to see it's become a popular topic recently in talks and articles.
But do co's really do it❓

Currently listening to the Audiobook version of the great "Platform Engineering on Kubernetes"
I wish more technical books are available as audiobook, as I have no time to read a (tech-)book, but have often time to listen to something while doing houshold chores.
