One of my "hobbies" is endurance sport - many kind tbh. It keeps me sane and helped me through many rough years. I was very lucky, to win a ballot to the Norseman Triathlon next year (https://t.co/sxK7CUPIBX). I did it already 5 years ago, but this… https://t.co/kCEuIg0i3K
Uff - another power outage in my home-basement-datacenter survived. Mastodon is up and running, as well as others zillions of services. Unfortunately, my UPSes can only hold voltage for 30mins max (12 bare-metal boxes here!) and this… https://t.co/rjVsmcjl8d

@JackJudahTweet@kong@elonmusk (from https://t.co/g4t2DQPK8X).

I'm not sure currently XD And seriously - nice try, I really do appreciate. Have a good day! 2/2
@JackJudahTweet@kong Thank you Jack. I have used Kong/API-GW already (not a LUA fan tbh). All cool, but @elonmusk is disabling microservices at Twitter. And Kong goes like: "Blow up the monolith Distributed architectures and microservices can accelerate development cycles and reduce costs[...]" 1/2
