@absoludicrous You mean Panorama?

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

Doing some scale testing and it took me three days spinning a 150 node cluster up and down to realize I don’t know what IaaS I’m using. Living the dream.

@ianhuston @bandwidth Congrats on the new role!

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@dwfrank Turn off the overhead light and put a bright light bulb behind the monitor so you’re lit from the reflection off the wall

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@mikevilliger @mreider Sure, which parts don’t you want?

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@testobsessed My money is on LED bulbs that aren’t rated for enclosed fixtures and are overheating.

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@nota_bennett The only obstacle to scale we encountered was the $$$$ per GB that Splunk charged.

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@nota_bennett I used to use Splunk for this, with all log lines formatted as k/v pairs. The learning curve was steep to get beyond using it as grep but it was amazing once there.

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@jambay @HashiCorp Congrats! I saw the notice when I ran `terraform -v` this morning and thought of you.

@flavorjones Is 2021 the year of Linux on the desktop? Or are people downloading from ruby gems in prod over and over again?

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@mikegehard @dam5s It’s a favorite of mine. I rewatch it every few years.

@dburkes @sconover 🚀🚀🚀🚀 💎🙌💎🙌

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@nota_bennett Sitting on the Dock of The Bay is excellent and contains the only acceptable use of Frisco

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@dwfrank I’ve always wondered why I would need Apple Pay on my watch. Thank you for inviting me to your TED talk.

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@ue129 @dburkes Don’t leave us hanging, what gaffer tape did you settle on? I’m partial to Bron, but I haven’t been able to find retail source of it and I don’t need a full case.

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@terronk Those security strips must be cheaper than tape. They’ve become a standard way to seal delivery food in NY in the last month.

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@jenplusplus We’re building a tool to grant access to web services without sharing passwords. LMK if you want to come work on it.

[Matthew Kocher @mkocher]

@aussielunix @jambay @jmckenty @progrium @jf @dsboulder @geerlingguy We gradually shifted to teams maintaining their own solution to workstation provisioning. There were enough differences and there wasn’t enough benefit to justify converging on one solution.

@essej Spending a year in New York. This is looking out at the Hudson River from Hell’s Kitchen.

Watching the USNS Comfort arrive this morning from my window.
