the car is on fire and there is no driver at the wheel

I wrote about our year of running Kubernetes as a product and policy driver, on starting principles of empathy, mentorship, and a belief that we can drive change.

Update: A Threat Actor claims to have completely compromised Uber - they have posted screenshots of their AWS instance, HackerOne administration panel, and more.

They are openly taunting and mocking @Uber.

@prado_adria we check our calendars to see if we've warped back to 2005, where this image is relevant again

@ctudball But you never had good tas--

You know what, screw the jokes - I'm glad you're all better. ❤

Come hang with us in @infracoders Melbourne in Aug 9! I'll be talking about using Github as a mechanism to argue about software well. Or having an existential crisis. Probably both.

@ctudball jesus christ I thought the nutbush dance was genetic memory or something

[John Contad ᜉᜎ᜔o @JohnContad]

Quick questions about Nut Bush City Limits:
- Why does Australia have a specific dance for it?
- How does everybody know how to dance to it???

@tessiselated I'm guessing you have the classics covered, so!

- Thunderbolt Fantasy is puppets doing martial arts with a very wuxia aesthetic. Think Thunderbirds meets Crouching Tiger
- Time and Tide (2005) is a Tsui Hark classic that has wirework and gunfu.

@dtbell91 Well done, homie. Bonus: those peeps are going to walk away knowing what good incident reviews are supposed to be like. The impact ripples.

LAPSUS$ extortion group claims to have breached @Okta. They have released 8 photos as proof.

The photos we are sharing has been edited so no sensitive information or user identities are displayed.

Oh man, if this it what it looks (Okta got popped)… Blue Team everywhere is gonna be crazy busy.

@woollyams the glib, soundbite-friendly version is that we make more progress inspecting the way we work, instead of throwing people at the work

[John Contad ᜉᜎ᜔o @JohnContad]

badly implemented #SRE is basically like

hey homes, we have this set of life-intrusive, health-adverse, psychologically exhausting work that we want only a few of us to do buuuut it pays more

and we just kind of accept it

[John Contad ᜉᜎ᜔o @JohnContad]

@woollyams IMO: There's a section in the "SRE Book" that frequently gets glossed over - in that SRE in itself proved to be insufficient. Codified practices, reusability, and uniformity forms the basis of the long-term /structural/ solution to site reliability.

Cisco is offering Splunk $20 billion... Unclear if they're trying to buy the company, or just renew their subscription for another year.
