What a great video about notifications and alerts. While @mskayyali.com addresses notifications on phones with it, there is so much to learn for any kind of alerting, including what we do in the Observability Space. A must watch!

Calling Dart & Flutter developers! There's a push to bring officially maintained OpenTelemetry support to Dart and Flutter and they're looking for contributors to help make it happen. Interested in shaping observability for Dart? buff.ly/YFfwlUJ #OpenTelemetry #Flutter #Dart

#OpenTelemetry is a #CNCF graduated project From OpenCensus and OpenTracing to today, this project has been a community effort from the start. Thank you to everyone who contributed code, docs, specs, reviews, feedback, and end-user experiences. This milestone belongs to you. buff.ly/SSE3ct3

I made an observation the other day, that many open source repositories provide an AGENTS(dot)md, but not something equivalent for humans. I wrote about it, and came to the conclusion that, there is no need for HUMANS(dot)md svrnm.com/blog/humans....

From the Norwegian Consumer Council: „The Enshittificator“ vimeo.com/1168468796?f... — make it shitty 😭

It looks like human-to-human key signing parties will soon come back into fashion.

If hexagons are the bestagons, are metrics the bestrics? svrnm.com/blog/metrics...

A lab and a blog post about turning traces into helpful insights about your SQL queries: something I worked on for the last few weeks is finally published on the Causely blog and on GitHub, for you to use and copy:-)

See how Causely continuously builds an always-on service graph (services, infra, and data flows) and combines it with traces, metrics, and logs to pinpoint the exact regression, its blast radius, and the causal path — with clear, explainable reasoning in seconds.

The latest Annual Cloud Native Survey by @cncf.io gave an update on adoption for projects, and of course I checked were the numbers for @opentelemetry.io : Close to 50% in production! This is an impressive result, I am really proud of what our community has accomplished! www.cncf.io/wp-content/u...

Hope to see you all at Unplugged (or FOSDEM?)

Join us in Brussels on Monday, February 2, 2026—the day after FOSDEM—for OTel Unplugged EU 2026, an unconference shaped by and for the OpenTelemetry community. events.humanitix.com/otelunplugge...

Not sure why I was expecting a slide being added directly, when I clicked the Copilot button from within PowerPoint and asked it to add a slide based on the prompt I provided ...

🔥 Mark your calendars! OTel Unplugged EU 2026 is happening Feb 2 in Brussels (day after FOSDEM) No slides, just real technical conversations with the #OpenTelemetry community. You pick the topics. Limited space! Register: buff.ly/aaUyQsx 🔄 Please repost to help us reach the community!

🪄 Automatic instrumentation isn’t magic, it’s code. Code that comes with trade-offs you must understand. You can’t afford to treat it like a black box. This blog unpacks 5 techniques for automatic instrumentation with lab examples you can try. www.causely.ai/blog/demysti...

Ми раді повідомити, що наш вебсайт тепер доступний українською! Це полегшить початок роботи для українських розробників! We are happy to announce that our website is now available in Ukrainian! This will make it easier for Ukrainian developers to get started!

AI 🤝 Scammers

Are you curious how different techniques for automatic instrumentation work? I wrote a blog post and created a lab that give an overview over the most common mechanisms: Repo: github.com/causely-oss/... Blog: www.causely.ai/blog/demysti...

When distributed systems fail, it’s often not due to lack of data — it’s lack of understanding. Watch this ‪dzone‬ webinar to learn how causal reasoning is helping teams solve reliability issues at the source. www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuro...

Production failures aren’t noise problems. They’re signal problems. 📢⚠️ Causely cofounder Endre Sara shares why the hardest part of incident response is knowing what to pay attention to — and how AI can help. causely.ai/blog/the-sig... #DevOps #SRE #Observability
