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!

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'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.

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.

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.

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.

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