lots of improvements on the way! For more details about ongoing work checkout this talk from last grafanacon www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pcdu... :)

10/10! would do it again!

Incidents happen because people do things that have always worked successfully, up until the incident. Doing something that always worked in the past is completely rational!

my new ai device will sit in a beer garden that backs onto a small river and drink three to five pints on a sunny late summer afternoon for you, leaving you free for more meetings and business calls

I feel like my brain is fully functional up about now :) 100%! I'm away for ~1.5 week on a roadtrip to legoland with the kids but beers sounds great once I'm back!

Surviving the heatwave?

Stop. Breathe. Listen. Say little. There is nothing you can say that will alter the course of this conversation to your benefit.

Sign nothing in that meeting. Your former employer just became the adverse party; don't take legal advice from them.

I'll make sure to add that to our conference post mortem!!

I'm at Elysian Brewing for the Grafana conference speaker happy hour and there's a beer that this brewery makes called "Prometheus" but THEY'RE OUT OF IT.

C'mon.

It’s GrafanaCon time!! Boarding my flight to Seattle right now.

Last year was a blast and we have so many new additions this year. Hope to see you there!!

You can now export a rich set of metrics to Prometheus, unlocking more options for you to monitor your database with tools like Grafana, Datadog, and New Relic.

At this rate we're only a couple weeks away from hoarding toilet paper again. Lots of type II fun ahead of us.

Just finished listen to Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams and its something you don't want to miss!

the personal brands comes by growing product brand.

devrel building personal instead of product brand is what distinguish good and bad devrels IMO. Sure! have personality, charisma and be yourself but engagement for the product.

I hope to see you there!

Feel free to poke me if you run into any problems!

Plenty of docs on running Grafana, Loki, Tempo and Prometheus (if you want metrics) available online :) All of them are released under the AGPL license.

Grafana Loki OSS | Log aggregation system Loki is a horizontally scalable, highly available, multi-tenant log aggregation system inspired by Prometheus.

grafana.com/oss/loki/ for logs and grafana.com/oss/tempo/ for traces

Does non-commercial open source rule us out? Curious about that :)

🧡 Happy Valentine's Day!

Sending our love to the maintainers, contributors, and users who make open source stronger every day.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Open source thrives,
Because of you!

Grot has written a few extra love notes for their friends at GitHub, Golang, and Linux.

Traveling alone is so nice.

I'm more than happy to answer any questions about Bryan as well!

On my way to FOSDEM! Swing by out booth if you have any questions about Grafana, Mimir, Loki, Pyropscope, Bayla, Faro :)

There's something so much fun about watching someone go 100% talking about something they're passionate about. Jumping all over the place, tripping over their words because they just love this shit so much and they want to tell the world.
