I just want them to be paying the city for the sidewalk and bike lane they’ve occupied for years.

West Hotel Project Sold in Sheriff’s Sale Mortgagor Onward Investors could take control of the would-be Commutator/West Hotel project on Second Avenue in Minneapolis’ North Loop.

Complete speculation but @joelaha.bsky.social suggests maybe he is a pipe smoker and is tapping out ashes after smoking?

Precious kitteh! So wee and darling!

Bridget and Joe outdoors in Wisconsin, wearing Packers hats (not made of cheese).

Thankful for time with @joelaha.bsky.social & family, tasty food, and the Packers understanding their part in the holiday. 🧀🏈 #GoPackGo

Years ago, we had to turn off our old car's lane departure warning system because it was alerting that "oh no! you aren't driving in the pre-defined lanes!"

(We were driving in MN & WI through an actively-falling snowstorm on a freeway, so we were located in the actually-feasible ruts in the snow.)

Unexpectedly heartwarming 2025 moment: wow, Linus has such a good point and is being quite reasonable in making said point!

Delta’s in-aircraft boarding music includes an instrumental version of Taylor Swift’s Anti-Hero, which makes me want to start singing that it’s me; hi; I’m the problem; it’s me. 😹

Atlanta’s MARTA offers new music after each stop as transit riders come and go, sharing their joyous soundscapes. 🎶🎵🎼🚊

Tbh I kinda assume “let’s make a new operating system!” is your default state. 😹

Thanks for having me on stage #KubeCon #CloudNativeCon ! Just in case you were wondering about what was on my mind ...

Principles, strategies, tactics.

Platforms allow us to go faster, safer, and more efficiently, without the “puppy for Christmas” problem of maintainability. 🐕 @abangser.bsky.social #KubeCon

Aman on stage.

Polling is simple but slow; streaming is fast but complex. A new approach is drasi.io, which lets us detect and respond to changes in real time. —Aman Singh, #KubeCon

Way too much cpu being used by an unexpected call.

Disable inotify and see if it helps.

Massive reduction in cpu.

Today’s scale means we can run into bottlenecks we never would have seen before. Open your profiler and take a look!
