@jurajmasar distributed tracing just went from "borderline impossible to setup" to "run a single command" 🤯

Today, we're introducing eBPF-based OpenTelemetry tracing alongside a remotely controlled Better Stack Collector. eBPF is ready for prime time. Here's the playbook for adopting it. What's eBPF? "extended Berkeley Packet Filter" is a Linux kernel technology that lets you run sandboxed programs inside the kernel safely and efficiently. Thanks to eBPF, you can now instrument your clusters with OpenTelemetry without changing any application code 🤯 The eBPF ecosystem has matured significantly over the past few months and many Better Stack customers are already using it in production. Until now, deploying eBPF to production has been tricky. We're simplifying it today by bundling the best of the open source eBPF sensors into a single remotely controlled Better Stack collector you can deploy with a single command. Better Stack collector gives you granular control over what exactly gets instrumented. Get the service map of your cluster, RED metrics for individual services, see network flows, and aggregate your application and system logs out of the box. Without changing any code. Observability tools are only useful if you actually ingest all relevant data. Today, we're making that simpler and more convenient than ever. The eBPF OpenTelemetry playbook™ = "Do the easy thing before doing the hard thing" 1. In your staging environment. 2. Deploy the eBPF collector into your distributed cluster. 3. In 98% of cases: Declare victory, your app is now instrumented. 4. In 2% of cases: You notice a particular service has slowed down. For example, the CPU utilization on a high-throughput Redis instance handling millions of operations per second got noticeably higher. Better be safe, so you disable eBPF for this single instance while keeping it enabled for the other 98% of services. 5. If needed, use the OpenTelemetry SDK auto-instrumentation to instrument the last 2% of applications. Most teams today still start with step 5. If you're revisiting your observability stack, I encourage you to give eBPF a chance: it has matured significantly and is better than you might expect. Better Stack encourages combining OpenTelemetry traces from the OTel SDK, eBPF, and your frontend. That's the only way to get the clearest picture of what's actually happening in your application. Want to chat eBPF? Catch me at KubeCon in Amsterdam next week!

BREAKING: Proof—a new product from @every It’s a live collaborative document editor where humans and AI agents work together in the same doc. It's fast, free, and open source—available now at proofeditor.ai. It’s built from the ground up for the kinds of documents agents are increasingly writing: bug reports, PRDs, implementation plans, research briefs, copy audits, strategy docs, memos, and proposals. Why Proof? When everyone on your team is working with agents, there's suddenly a ton of AI-generated text flying around—planning docs, strategy memos, session recaps. But the current process for collaborating and iterating on agent-generated writing is…weirdly primitive. It mostly takes place in Markdown files on your laptop, which makes it reminiscent of document editing in 1999. Proof lets you leave .md files behind. What makes Proof different? - Proof is agent-native: Anything you can do in Proof, your agent can do just as easily. - Proof tracks provenance: A colored rail on the left side of every document tracks who wrote what. Green means human, Purple means AI. - Proof is login-free and open source: This is because we want Proof to be your agent's favorite document editor. Check it out now, for free—no login required: proofeditor.ai

@thekitze upload to R2 and send URL also useful for PR screenshots - github doesn’t do screenshots in PR summary via CLI

No need to decipher Unix timestamps, country codes or IPv4 addresses anymore. Agents are cool, but @BetterStackHQ makes your logs readable by humans too.

1 TB of internet egress costs $92 on AWS, $1.2 on Hetzner and $0.15 when buying connectivity wholesale. Public cloud is convenient, but understand what you're paying for that convenience. We built @BetterStackHQ with costs in mind to deliver a better experience at drastically lower prices.

@mitchellh did you consider closing the worst automatically with an LLM?

I've been doing open source since I was a teenager (over 20yrs). And for the first time ever, I'm considering closing external PRs to my OSS projects completely. This will throw the baby out with the bathwater and I hate that, but we close auto-opened slop PRs every single day.
