@npub1zj4…fyjh How about we track the private jets of billionaires to ensure they are on their best behavior?

#iPhone 14pro -> iPhone 16pro ordered. Pickup at the local Apple Store Sept 21st. Estimated $400 trade in. Both 256GB (I currently have about 90GB free) and purple replaced by natural titanium. Looking forward to a longer battery life…

Nice write up on the Netflix tech Blog on using #eBPF to measure container scheduling delay for noisy neighbor diagnosis. Also good to see this measurement on #Linux, finally. #Solaris had this metric in its microstate accounting mechanism 30yrs ago and it was one of the most useful tools I used to understand workload behavior. https://netflixtechblog.com/noisy-neighbor-detection-with-ebpf-64b1f4b3bbdd

@npub1grx…uxfe A fiend of mine had immunotherapy, it wiped him out after each dose but it fixed the problem. Hope it goes well for you.

Went out for dinner with visiting family this evening and there was a very nice looking yellow Lotus Emira parked nearby. It’s good to see that they finally started to ship in the USA #CarPhotography #Photography

Good first step - Labour getting an experienced and senior team in place - hopeful they will get a lot done. Meet the Labour Government’s New Climate Team https://www.desmog.com/2024/07/10/meet-the-labour-governments-new-climate-team/

#Photography Yellow Chaffinch that flew into a window a few days ago. I heard the bang and found it sitting stunned outside so I could get close for a good photo. After a few minutes it flew away. A lucky escape.

#monitorama good to see this Deming quote - “it’s wrong to suppose that if you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it - a costly myth” - David Caudill talking about Observability Expectations

Really nice new #LiveMusic video of a band I’ve been following for a while - The Fierce And The Dead #TFATD - currently on tour in the UK. Song is moving and intense, one of their slower tracks. Non Player - https://youtu.be/FTgA_nHmIEE?si=HKQUggMLlNnDOMOo

Back in March, at QCon London I gave a talk summarizing the current state of play for #carbon #sustainability information from #cloud providers. I also proposed that rather than monthly totals, we really want real time carbon data at one minute intervals. That turned into a project proposal at the green software foundation and that proposal was approved this week, so a group of us are working to define what that standard would look like, and work to convince cloud providers to support it.
