Doing dad stuff. Wishing I was skiing more. Staff engineer. I love Ruby.

when it's done perfectly it goes unnoticed or, at best, it's just taken for granted.

Last week I setup a self healing production system with GitLab Observability and Duo Agent Platform. Exceptions that fire alerts generate issues and Duo Developer automatically tracks down what happened and generates a fix. 🤯

We've just shipped a feature that's been at the top of our list: automatic instrumentation for CI/CD pipelines in GitLab Observability. No manual setup. No complex configuration. Just instant visibility into your pipeline performance, job durations, and bottlenecks. Here's what you get out of the box:
- Pipeline execution traces showing exactly where time is spent
- Job-level metrics and duration tracking
- Performance trends over time

If you're already using GitLab Observability you will need to turn on CI/CD instrumentation with a CI/CD variable. We are working on doing this for you! New to the platform? Now's a great time to try it out. Head to the Observability menu in your GitLab group to get started. CI/CD will be automatically instrumented when you enable Observability. This is part of our broader vision to make observability built-in, not bolted-on. We're building GitLab Observability as an experimental feature and your feedback directly shapes where we go next. Try it out this week and let us know what you think. What pipeline insights matter most to you?

@chris__sev That's next to my house!

[Ant Murphy @ant_murphy]

I made a lot of mistakes when interviewing users in the early days.

But I was lucky to work with some of the best product leaders and product designers who taught me an insane amount on the craft!

Later this month, I will be sharing some of those lessons.

@WFG_DEN Tell me the time, don't tell me how you built the clock.

[Dakota Dux (rhymes with books) @ddux]

@joemasilotti Any gems you're using that could be causing this?

If you are in the #denver area and interested in tech leadership, there's a great meetup happening tonight.

@maxlynch I once took bite out of a breakfast sandwich at Graze and had to put it down because it was so good.

[Dakota Dux (rhymes with books) @ddux]

@WFG_DEN You obviously said yes, right?
