Stumbled onto this on Reddit..I mean, these are good questions 🤣
WHSmith rebranding to TGJones is ridiculous. I think they were forced to rename after the high street shops but not the travel outlets were sold, but they either should have also licensed the brand, or taken the opportunity to do something different. What the have just looks shoddy and second-rate ☹️

Not going to name and shame but I’ve already been shown a bit of booth design at #kubecon where the most charitable interpretation is that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery

@abangser.bsky.social is a natural on the #kubecon keynote stage. Great choice as the newest co-chair!

What to do when #kubecon travel issues lead to a talk cancellation? At #CiliumCon we’re lucky that 🐝 @tgraf.bsky.social was available to step in and do an AMA hosted by @breakawaybilly.bsky.social 👏

Nice visualisation from @hemanthmalla.bsky.social of how looping in #eBPF programs has evolved

Really cool performance improvements from the introduction of @cilium.io Endpoint Slices which reduces load on the #kubernetes API. Nice talk from @microsoft’s Tamilmani and Shreya at #CiliumCon

Seems I'm not the only one saying that #opensource is free like a puppy - an analogy I in turn got from @mauilion.dev 🐶
To vet open source software, evaluating the business model, funding and governance behind projects you depend on is essential for business continuity.

Just discovered, for the first time here on Bluesky, someone who has blocked me. I accidentally learned this because they interacted with someone I follow, and I was curious who they are. I wouldn’t have been surprised by this on the old place, but genuinely a bit put out! 😢

Government has published one of those quiet but important documents that might get overlooked as it is not 'newsy'. The headline finding is that £1 of public R&D investment generates £8 in net economic benefits for the UK over the long term

Related: telcos increasingly use“the cloud” (the internet) some of it being the public cloud like AWS. IDK how much that’s for data-only features, but I wonder how much voice traffic would also be affected in the event of a catastrophic global internet failure www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

V interesting. Includes link to this article with the striking idea that AI coding assistance might actually increase demand for programmers because they can be more efficient, just as invention of compilers did open.substack.com/pub/andreinf...
