TCP_NODELAY is really the software version of “did you remember to take the parking brake off?”

There you have it, ladies, gents and enbies. The next time someone asks me how to get their leadership on board with testing in production, there's your answer:
"No, we aren't testing in production. We are practicing ✨proactive monitoring✨ with real datasets."

testing in production is called “proactive monitoring” and pretty well known for decades, especially in “non-pure-software” world, like interfaces to hardware (phone systems, video, satellites, robotics,…).

Others have pointed this out, but this renaming is stepping on the exact same rake that got him ousted by PayPal. Wrote about this in my book

Hi Redhat.
You’ll understand the picture below.
You’ve been taking my work for about 25 years, and happily consuming it downstream.
You’ve never paid me, but I’ve encouraged my clients to pay you.
Perhaps it’s time we discuss how you will compensate us for our work.

Staff and Principal engineer is about decision making and relationship building and mentorship and clearly explaining complexity and quality writing.
It’s almost a completely different job, and I’m so thankful for my liberal arts background for teaching me a lot of these skills.

It is hard to grasp for some engineers early in their careers what took them here won't take them there. Shipping features will probably can take you to senior, shipping 10x more features is not how you'll become a principal.

For the MTA, Twitter is no longer reliable for providing the consistent updates riders expect.
So as of today, we’re saying goodbye to it for service alerts and information.
But we're not saying goodbye to you, our customers! There are lots of ways to get real-time updates. ⬇️
