Wasn't on my 2025 tech radar

Installing Windows Server 2008 so I can figure out how to integrate with a DCOM service. Every day's a school day.

Any Open telemetry nerds out there who can help me figure out how to trace a long-lived daemon full of async io?

I feel like Bluesky is not useful for grokking what's happening in the world. Twitter was a primary source of news for me, but this place always seems unperturbed by external events. Am I missing something?

I used to be able to count.

1. The planet will be fine, the q is "can paint prevent civilisational collapse"

3. The answer is "not if we keep producing GHGs".

Not "like" like, but y'know.. "❤️" like

Today we did more production deployments than we have engineers. Amazed at the progress CarbonRe has made over the last few months.

Dr Hayhoe is one of my favourite science communicators and I'm delighted to see she's made it over here
Go follow her!

Also my wife, but y'know, that's secondary in this context.

This is my best friend, she's awesome, and you should hire her.

What's your favourite album, out of curiosity?

The vibe here is good, but I'm just kinda burned out on social networks.

Nice, I'll have a play

I mean, nazi punk isn't everyone's cup of tea, Alex.

Welcome new Bluesky users. Some etiquette guidelines:

- Reduce your emissions ASAP instead of setting distant plans

- Carbon offsets are fundamentally counter-productive

- Renewable energy deployment must be both fast and cautious

- Carbon removal that delays mitigation must be stopped

I haven't been back to Reddit since signing up. A bit light on content still, but a good vibe. I was on Reddit for well over a decade and the app thing just... Made me realise it wasn't the same any more.

I am become Barbie, destroyer of Ken

me: hello, neighbour. what are you making out here?
him: it's a cross for chaining people to, like in a sex dungeon
me: ... right oh

To my critics trying to dissuade me from time travel I say: what makes you think I won't kill critical butterflies in *this* timeline?

Also, Lemmy is vibing.

You know I've tried, I really have, but I think I'm done with mypy's shit.

If it doesn't come from the DevOps region of France, it's just sparkling yaml

Ewww... Sticky
