Such a great time presenting at the @infracoders Melbourne Meetup. And what better than sharing the stage with @mysqldbahelp

@patrickdebois Looking forward to the video and the deck - like all your others!

Getting ready for #thedevopsconference Copenhagen . See you there tomorrow!

@themsaid Great share. What do you think the cost profile would be if you rewrote and run Go in Lambda? And why not ECS, instead of EC2?

One month since switching from Lambda to EC2. Cost savings are hundreds of thousands of dollars on annual basis. We haven't used reserved instances yet, and I'm convinced that by moving a few more endpoints from PHP to Go, we could reduce the number of instances to half.

@rowancheung What about code interpreter?

Google is in trouble. I got early 'Alpha' access to GPT-4 with browsing and ran some tests. Here are 8 crazy things I found:

@__steele Unsure how skin colour, genitals or sexuality plays a role in someones confidence

I think this is spot on. I had a similar thought. I think people are enamoured with ChatGPT for the same reason that straight white men succeed in job interviews. There’s something in society’s psyche that rewards confidence more than competence. And ChatGPT sounds confident.

@__steele are you re:Inventing?

This looks like a great addition to AWS RDS aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-… #reinvent #aws

@__steele yep - but with services like EKS, if a workload requires persistent filesystem, it is the go-to.

Ultra hot take: AWS EFS is becoming *too good* and people are going to build new apps that rely on it instead of something like S3. aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-…

@monkchips @GergelyOrosz I'd be great to hear how other people are performing such a change. Is this the best strategy? Heavy handedness might expedite an outcome but it might disenfranchise staff in a highly fluid employment market.

@monkchips @GergelyOrosz It was indeed a great blog! Taking a company with poor on-call uncompensated culture to one where its importance is emphasised can be hard. I moved my workplace to option (6). This seems to be a good start and then moving to (5) if there are continued gaps are my thoughts.

so @GergelyOrosz continues to do outstanding work. if you're interested in the corporate practice of software engineering you should follow his work, which is always data-driven. here's his latest take on on call and compensation blog.pragmaticengineer.com/oncall-compens…

@Pete_Snell @awesomederek Let’s not jump to conclusions if this is conjecture. I too am disappointed by its service though incidents happen. It’s how they communicate out and respond dictates whether they’re a good partner or not

@awesomederek Did anyone really not see this coming with the acquisition? It appears they dumped staff members that actually understand the service and now they can’t keep it operational for more than a few weeks. Really disappointed, it was a good service.

Is #OneLogin down... again?!? For the third time in, what, two months?

Another #OneLogin outage?

What a convoluted process to download Vmware Fusion for ARM Mac

@petehanssens I use AWS SSO from Onelogin idp using SCIM provisioning. Works well. Unsure if Google will do the SCIM provisioning; it'd be a shame if it doesn't as this is how we map people into specific SAML roles

And yes I absolutely am enforcing 2FA for gsuite users :D support.google.com/a/answer/175197

Anyone using GSuite as an external identity provider for AWS SSO... looking at implementing tonight for my employees... just checking if anyone's had a rough ride or not: aws.amazon.com/blogs/security…

I’m looking forward to sharing @REA_Group’s platform story at #platformcon this year giving a perspective on the question: when can you afford a platform? Super interesting topics and speakers available for Q&A on slack during the event! platformcon.com/talk/when-can-…

@GossiTheDog Does that code compile on Hunter Bidens laptop?

How does Twitter work? Let’s take a look at it from the architectural point of view before Elon takes it. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐚 𝐓𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐭: 1️⃣ A tweet comes in through the Write API. 2️⃣ The Write API routes the request to the Fanout service. #twitter #systemdesign
