I just published a new blog post on assessing the quality of an LLM application using Ragas metrics and Elasticsearch www.elastic.co/search-labs/...

Elastic{ON} NYC is approaching, and we'd love to feature some great developer-focused talks there. We currently have an open CFP for this. sessionize.com/elasticon/

This past week has been incredible! I had the chance to speak at Nebraska.Code about OpenTelemetry and being a keynote speaker at one of my favorite conferences, PyOhio. It was great to connect with so many new and old friends.

@bnb.im is one of my favorite people in DevRel. You should hire them!

I've already announced that I'll be keynoting one of my favorite conferences, @pyohio.org, but I'll also be playing a special noise set at the opening reception! PyOhio has always been a place where I felt I could be authentically me, and I'm so grateful to have communities like this in my life.

🌟 Speaker Spotlight: Jessica Garson @jessicagarson.bsky.social's talk is: Quality Code Samples Make Everything Better ...which is true! Whether code is for proof-of-concepts, systems, and/or user docs -- better samples beget happier devs. See schedule, information, and more on: squiggleconf.com
