Early in my career I wanted nothing more than to work @VMware as the companies virtualization tech was incredible. I am glad I had the opportunity to work their on @CloudFoundry and @vRealizeLogs. The @Broadcom announcement marks the end of era - interested to see what's next.

Looking forward to talk #OpenTelemetry and Splunk #o11y -- I hope to see you there!
Just throwing it out there - you've probably heard of or used some components of @OpenTelemetry in your production systems. But you still might be wondering: does it provide tangible benefits? (Spoiler: it does!) Join us this Thursday to learn more. #SplunkO11y

@github is awesome but GitHub security not so much... How are org scoped tokens not a thing: github.community/t/github-to…? Why can't PATs be repo scoped github.community/t/limiting-…?
