Don’t git push

I admit the title is a bit provocative. Of course, you need to push your changes. I should probably have renamed it "Don’t just git push", or "Don’t simply git push". But I’m sucker for clickbait titles.

OpenTelemetry attributes for CICD

OpenTelemetry is very pervasive! I love that it creeps into CI/CD pipelines and standardizes common attributes.

LoxiLB

LoxiLB is an open source hyper-scale software load-balancer for cloud-native workloads. It uses eBPF as its core-engine and is based on Golang.

Rust GitHub Actions Workflow

Yet another DSL, this time a Rust one for GitHub Actions.

Following up "Mother of all htmx demos"

The author of HTMX addresses some of the critics/comments on his framework.

Announcing Chicory 1.0.0-M1: First Milestone Release

Chicory is a library that allows to run WebAssembly code from Java.

Convert entire Websites from HTML to Markdown

Very handy for my cross-posting workflow!

Python is No More The King of Data Science

I’ve always wondered at the reason of Python’s popularity: its ecosystem. Once other languages offer the same richness of libraries, I don’t think Python will rule in Data Science for long.

K8GB, a cloud native Kubernetes Global Balancer

A Global Service Load Balancing solution with a focus on having cloud native qualities and work natively in a Kubernetes context

How we almost missed a plane in Kazakhstan, but OpenJDK could have saved us…​

I like the story, but actually, the potential savior is the IANA database.
