Finally, a tool that makes sense of my messy logs...

Good news! A company called @monoscope_tech just became a founding supporter of The African Engineer. They’re building an end-end monitoring and observability platform for engineering and technical support teams that: • shows every request (no sampling) • lets you debug issues from user click → database query • uses AI to explain what actually broke Basically… you see what your system is really doing. monoscope.tech Come back and tell me what you think. Thank you Monoscope for being part of the early story of The African Engineer

I remember when we celebrated $100K all time volume. We're now doing over $130K in a single day. 47 live markets. Less than 0.1% of what's on Polymarket. Market listing is operationally intensive because it's the first line of defense for the vault, and we're working to automate it. 325 traders fully onboarded. 50% came through other traders inviting them with their own invite codes. Community grew from ~500 to 1,020 members. All of this with no paid acquisition and still in private beta . All of this shows that traders want leverage on prediction markets, and we've made that possible on @Polymarket today. Lots of new product features and improvements coming in April. We're not slowing down.🔥 Grateful for the traders, community, and team that got us here. Data source: Polymarket's Official Builder Leaderboard

Agents and plane crashes. Berlin meetups covering all the existential dread bases.

Last week in Berlin. We had lovely conversations about Agents, runbooks, history, plane crashes, and even medical SOPs. Thanks to @getpostman and @neo4j for making it happen.

What’s your biggest hurdle to "Observability Excellence" in 2026?

2025 was about guessing, 2026? We’re watching EVERYTHING 👀. Resolved to stop treating your services and infrastructure like a "black box"? We’re here to turn the lights on. 💡 Healthy apps. Happy teams. Fewer incidents. Let’s get observant. 💡 #Observability

Small win, but we just broke through 400 stars on github. It's going to be a lovely 2026. Thanks for the stars.

Proof of life photo dump from one of the code.talks conference. It was fun talking about Monoscope and Timefusion, and our opinions around how telemetry data should be analysed

I demoed monoscope at a conference and some guy was impressed, then he went to our github, looked at the number of stars and closed the tab. Apparently a project needs (>n) number of stars to be worth using. Please give us a github star if you can. 👉github.com/monoscope-tech/mo…

Guys, thanks a ton for the github stars yesterday. We went up from ~250 to 330 🚀🚀

Blazing fast

Used Datadog in 2021 Outrageous cost of high volume products.

I gave a talk last weekend about how and why we built a custom database to power our monitoring and observability platform, @monoscope_tech . It just got available on youtube, so give it a watch and share any feedback you have ... youtu.be/oJInXFyur_w?si=Ympm…

Here's a video of what you can expect from @monoscope_tech x.com/tonialaribe/status/198…

I’ll send this to my engineering lead ASAP!

"Never build your own database". Monoscope: Hold my beer!

Properly cooked! Long time - def calling in this weekend 😂
