Client: We need DevOps!
Me: npm install devops

@devops_nk Cool but real kubernetes in the browser might be cooler: https://t.co/4fSWV6eM39

I see a lot of confusion around the boundary between AI Agents and Intelligent Automations. I’ve been chatting about this with colleagues and the best way I can summarize it:

- AI Agents are Goal Oriented
- Intelligent Automations are Task Oriented

[Austin Kurpuis @imaustink]

Siri + ChatGPT + Kubernetes = the unholy trinity of DevOps productivity. Should you? No. Can you? Absolutely.

Pairing is caring

@ChipotleTweets what’s up with this limited time nonsense? Chicken Al Pastor deserves a permanent spot on the menu. I beg of you, please make it happen!

[Austin Kurpuis @imaustink]

@likeOMGitsFEDAY OMG I don’t know there was a new episode! Thanks for the heads up 🫡

Bitovi has a new open source tool! It's low-code libraries for your React and Node projects. It makes getting an app started a breeze but also allows us to customize every part of the app.

Check it out, and let me know what you think!

@generalelectric serious question. What’s the point of a Wi-Fi connected oven if you have to remember to enable remote functionality before you leave home?

[Austin Kurpuis @imaustink]

@Vidanta Still awaiting a response from @Vidanta about this unacceptable safety issue. What a joke.

[Austin Kurpuis @imaustink]

Be careful staying with @Vidanta, you might be electrocuted trying to plug something into their outlets. And weirdly, when maintenance knew exactly where the problematic outlet was when the came to fix it 🤔

[Austin Kurpuis @imaustink]

@Vidanta Still awaiting a response to my DM, meantime the outlet cover fell off the wall and shot sparks everywhere. This revealed that it was “fixed” with duct tape. @Vidanta’s disregard for public safety is unacceptable.

A resort in Mexico offering VR escape from reality is the most dystopian thing I’ve ever seen.

[Austin Kurpuis @imaustink]

Yo @flydotio! Pretty cool you offer hosted Postgres now. Not so cool that the system provisions a new Postgres cluster for your app even when you disable the feature 😬

If you’re going to make a slimy business decision, then own it. Tell us the real reason. It has nothing to do with providing a better experience to your customers. It has everything to do with trying to make customers buy your $100 Home Bridge accessory.

[Austin Kurpuis @imaustink]

@Chamberlain_Grp this is a really dumb decision. You should allow people use the products they own however they like. If some fraction of your users are creating “DDOS events”, then implement rate limiting. There is no need for such a hostile response. https://t.co/dD3LQmRZXq

@mattchewone Missing the cheese init!

It’s hilarious how fast @GetSpectrum is willing to give out discounts when you let them know you’ve switched providers and are disconnecting service.

So weird because their billing department gave me the cold shoulder last week.

Bye! You won’t be missed.
