Time to have a break... KitKat® anyone? 🍫

Oh boy, would I like to see the post-morten for this Crowdstrike issue! To go through the entire release process, on a driver level change, with something so apparently easy to hit, without anything having blocked it... I have so many questions!

@mekkaokerekebye Twitter bots immediately hitting this with crypto scams is chefs kiss

So yeah, if you try to invest $500,000.00 in crypto, a good bank is going to quickly make sure that you are not being scammed. That anti-fraud department works for you. They serve you. That is a good thing.

🤔Why do people get so mad that traditional finance employs human beings to make sure that your money is not being stolen? After that call, I'm sure that the transfer went through. There was $3.94 billion worth of crypto investment fraud in 2023. Billion!

As usual, the memes are pure gold!

We are going to build something new & it will be incredible. Initial leadership (more soon): @merettm @sidorszymon @aleks_madry @sama @gdb The mission continues.

@seasharpdev @CloudReader11 @sarah_edo This was a really nice read for me too! I really enjoyed Sarah’s style!

@gwenshap Congrats! Exciting times!

Very excited to finally come out of stealth and share this with the world. We started Nile with a question: Why is building SaaS so challenging? Why does it take 5x more engineers to build Confluent Cloud than it does to build Apache Kafka? We spent the last 2 years talking to SaaS companies and iterating on approaches and solutions. We became convinced that many of the SaaS problems are in the data layers - and that most DBs don't do a good enough job with SaaS. Why? Because they are not aware of the tenants. Or customers. The most significant bit in a SaaS offering. And once we built Nile and made Postgres aware of tenants, we found ourselves with an endless list of problems we could solve. Everyone who looks at our website says, "You are solving the world." Damn right, we do. This is just V0. We are just getting started. And we'd love to have you on board.

After moving to FL, reaching out to friends still in CA, about them being safe from hurricanes, was definitely not on my bingo card, for any year...

I've been nodding in silent agreement for years, every time @QuinnyPig would jab at AWS's network egress costs catching you by surprise! Today, I finally discovered GCP's Network Topology tool! Does AWS have anything similar?

Being able to visualize egress traffic, across instances, zones and regions, as a graph, with callouts to biggest offenders and then able to jump into further metrics, was just such a surprisingly smooth debugging experience…

@eanakashima @honeycombio Congratulations!! Really enjoyed your perspective! Looking forward to your (hopefully) writeup also on the transition to managing managers.

Your party is promoting: - book banning - limiting speech in classrooms - silencing people in the boardroom - fining librarians But please tell us more about your version of “freedom of speech.”

@mipsytipsy Congrats!! Definitely rooting for you folks!

For years tech was aflush with cash while we held on by a thread, and now that everything is tanking we secured our $50m series D. "Honeycomb: going against the grain since 2016." 🥂to all past and present honeybees and our incredible investors, customers and friends! 🐝🌈✨

@rmurthy2020 Congrats Ravi & team!

On a personal note, this has a been an incredible journey for me - creating a brand new team and an industry-impacting product from scratch. I'm truly grateful to work with the amazing #googlecloud and #alloydb teams that make this magic happen !

I am super excited to announce that AlloyDB is now Generally Available !! Since AlloyDB Preview launch at Google IO, we have seen a tremendous amount of interest and momentum across the industry - huge thanks to all our customers and partners.

I am generally against the idea of people filing humorous amicus briefs, but this one from The Onion is outstanding: supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/22/2…
