Taylor's in her Showgirl era — and this week, so is Grafana ✨

Using Grafana Assistant, we built a Taylor Swift dashboard — and it tells Taylor's musical story all too well.

Full dashboard reveal coming this Friday!

Go's execution tracer is a woefully underutilized tool. It contains tons of information about what is happening at any given moment that you won't get with a profile.

Great episode from @gergely.pragmaticengineer.com about startup funding and growth.
I especially appreciated Peter wasn't "talking his book", more indirectly emphasising the key position that Carta holds.

Is your company hiring? Would I be useful to your team?

I think I'm ready to open discussions for 2026.

I still have commitments to finish over the next 6 months, but let's start talking.

I'm in no rush and looking to find the right product / team / company.

RTs appreciated
