The entire moat is gone. The biggest value driver they had was integrations to get the data there, but now ebpf, telegraf and Vector have destroyed that moat. With Vector you can even source from Splunk and move elsewhere.

I travel once a month for 3-5 days at a time. Lot of airlines allow one personal baggage and one carry-on. Even if there's no personal, when it is just a 3 day trip I'm able to pack everything just in my backpack.

Powerdns and dnsdist are incredible projects with a lot of features. Dnsdist has particularly added a lot of flexibility with ebpf/lua support. Shameless plug in related space that I was able to get open sourced is Dora a rust written

Isn't it a bit funny that Nvidia puts money into a company that is going to spend a large chunk of that capital right back at Nvidia. I wouldn't be surprised if there is little to near zero risk for Nvidia with this bet.

I live in Quebec. It's all for show to prop Quebec up as a place to even do business in. There's nothing in the tech space that is worth even looking at twice in this province that isn't headquartered elsewhere. Most larger c

I believe WeWork could have worked well, but they raised money on valuations of being like a tech company. They have a moat, their locations and global convenience. Same feel, same badge, same almost everything regardless of location. I was

The writing has been on the wall. They're burning $50M loss last quarter which is mind blowing considering they had a monopoly originally. Michael raised too much money and let everything go to his head and his leadership. The internal

Pulumi itself isn't doing anything. The TF bridge is interacting. If they really want to remove liability they'd just leave TF out of the repo and shift all liability to the end user where the first step runs a package install tha

They cared, but nobody could find a way to get from 11% to 25% and the overall market might have been shrinking. IMO it was the right decision. Does it make sense for a company to continue keeping folks who fail to meet an objective of gett
