And yet it was exactly one case.

There is no magic bullet. Observability isn’t something you can just slap on and call it a day. While traces and logs might share superficial similarities, they are not the same. And metrics are something else altogether. Trying to somehow unify them would be a prime example of "wrong abstraction".

The building blocks for this exist. The observability platform must simply (haha) implement the pattern detectors and use them for sampling decisions.

Hackers (whatever kind) are just one portion of the total populace. Others deserve genuinely good products, too. And maybe sometimes even a hacker wants to take a break. ;-)

Also, the form factor!

It's Astro and Astro Starlight. I feel it looks very similar to other contemporary docs website generators.

Basically all of Europe, with varying levels of detail.

But then, it of course isn't Google Maps. It is likely to be more out of date and will not understand "natural" search queries as Google does. I believe it just takes some getting used to. There is overlap between the two, each service has its strengths and weaknesses, but also unique features.

All those abstractions and cluster features do not come for free.

I do not consider employers that do not offer showers.

There is a snag however: Drivers for the built-in Broadcom Wi-Fi card are unmaintained and bug-ridden. Replacements do not exist either. The driver doesn't work most of the time nowadays and I have to rely on a USB Wi-Fi adapter that is sooo slow.

Maybe more recent Wi-Fi chipsets in Intel Macs are better off. Or maybe you don't need Wi-Fi!

I also find takes from the anti-LLM to be exceedingly dumb at times. Oh this text has this and that, it must have been written by LLM and thus is not worth even considering.

The latter is mostly because certain GUI patterns simply cannot be implemented with a TUI.

And then everyone has their own idea of what keyboard shortcuts should be like. Yuck

AI is entirely unrelated. This is simply yet another push to get more SaaS subscribers.

I’m sorry, what? This is such a shit take, I don’t even know where to start. What’s repetitive about them? That all UIs contain buttons or what?

If this is something that people actually believe, I can understand why UX has went to shit and then got even worse since the 90s.

And then, even if you could look inside, there's another type of asymmetric cryptography going on: the remote attestation itself. Again, if properly designed and possibly backed by a hardware security chip, it cannot be spoofed. This isn't something trivial like a shared secret in an HTTP header.

As implied, my employer's product is not software, but rather hardware. This hardware does of course run firmware and software and needs to interface with other systems. It's entirely B2B. All this combined makes work relatively relaxed.

That should be my line. My new employer does not use LLMs at all. Software development, marketing, hardware development, nothing. Maybe too little, but whatever.

The problems the company is facing are entirely unrelated to "throughput".
