One of the most difficult things about being a Developer Advocate for a company like @grafana is explaining how everything fits together. I'm (relatively) new to the company myself, having joined through an acquisition, so figuring out what everything does is something that I've had to do as well. Here's a video to help others piece together all the moving parts of the projects that make up Grafana Labs: https://youtu.be/WSW1urIXsfA #observability#reliability#opentelemetry
#Deciduous got a major glow up and has a bunch of new features.
My fav two are:
✨ CLI support so you can npm install -g deciduous
✨ steganography so you can import a png / svg of a decision tree and derive the YAML for it
Ah, I understand what people mean now when they say "#Gnome always messes something up". With GTK4, the cool flatpak app, #gradience, is no longer helpful. As you can see by the screenshot, the sidebar of GTK4 applications are not a consistent theme. Thanks, Gnome. xD
If you don't know, with gradience, you used to be able to override the GTK3 applications. The whole calendar app should be that blueish grey color but not anymore! #linux
Not supporting every possible hack combo under the sun is fundamental to testable & lean development—very much a reason why GNOME is more reliable & sustainable than many projects out there.
It's how we manage to release every 6 months like clockwork, with 25-40 thousand changes per release.
#Lean & #reliability ain't possible if we accept blame for 3rd-party hacks.
#CloudFlare had an #incident late last week affecting their #services. This has been widely commented upon, because #reliability is their raison d'etre (sorry if my French spelling is bad...).
To me, this should count as a resounding success. Even with a #cascading#failure of systems, backups, and #recovery procedures, customers' sites still didn't go down - they lost access to analytics and the ability to make changes, but no actual outage.
