As the new year begins, let me tell you the story about the most ridiculous bug we solved last year. Some #dotnet and #aws folks might get a kick out of it. 🧵

@TedsTechTed @DamianEdwards @aspnet @dotnet Isn't EB still a container at the end of the day?

@davidfowl @socketnorm Can you point this at localstack for dev?

@SlangsOnSports I feel the sudden urge to root for Trevor May. Can't imagine why...

@MartinDotNet Booked - looking forward to it!

[Matt Kelso @ThisIsKelso]

Hey @MartinDotNet I'm doing SQS long polling in a BackgroundService and traces with no messages in the queue are polluting my P95. Is there a way to not send that telemetry? I wrapped it in a parent and set it to not record if 0 messages are returned ...

[Matt Kelso @ThisIsKelso]

@MartinDotNet Thanks for answering my questions! In the interim, I tweaked the Honeycomb query to not include all root spans by default and only include those of type server. Our listeners are either marked as client or consumer so it effectively filters that noise out.

[Matt Kelso @ThisIsKelso]

@MartinDotNet Can I configure the Honeycomb exporter to do this? I didn't see anything just poking through the source

I found a pub with an inverted normal map. If you understand what this means, you have to retweet.

[Matt Kelso @ThisIsKelso]

@MartinDotNet @davidfowl @_cartermp @C8Luna FWIW - we started using Honeycomb for one of our services a few weeks ago and within days we started to remove all of its logging because it basically became useless. Tracing is just way more insightful IMO

In what language did you write your first “Hello World” line of code?

My GitHub issue elicited an xkcd joke from @davidfowl. Highlight of my career https://t.co/ibrjeLc6xB
