⚠️ On May 16, 2026, we confirmed a targeted attack by a cybercrime group that gained unauthorized access to our GitHub repositories and downloaded our codebase. Here is the latest update about our investigations.

I had the great pleasure to give a presentation about our partnership with Google to offer Grafana for internal observability today at GrafanaCon with Katia Giarda from Google monitoring #GrafanaCon2026

Nice to see Amazon CloudWatch also finally adopt PromQL as a metrics query language! docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudW...

Reminder: ich bin heute leider auf dem Post Mortem zur #FOSDEM und kann deswegen nicht in #München #pruef #prüf en gehen. Nehmt wen mit und helft meinen Platz zu besetzen. Dankeschön!

Coworker just got ~nuked~ by the flu this year, get your shot which while not 100% is worth every chance. Last time I got flu I drove through the snow to the ER because I thought I was dying 🫤

“How did Prometheus go from a SoundCloud side project to 3.0?” Ep. 2 of our Big Tent podcast features Julius Volz, co-creator of #Prometheus and founder of PromLabs & #PromCon & “RichiH” Hartmann, Sr.Developer Programs Director at Grafana Labs. Watch: https://youtu.be/XvvBkhSasH4

Dass die Gewinne der Autobranche im 2025 niedrig sind, liegt nicht an einer Regelung, die 2035 in Kraft treten sollte. Es liegt daran, dass sie seit 2017 nicht schafft, ihre Produkte den Bedürfnissen ihrer größten Absatzmärkte (& der Klimakrise) anzupassen www.tagesschau.de/wi...

There was a third image in this set, which appears to be an outpainted or cropped version of another image in the set, but has more visible issues from AI generation. See if you can spot them!

Nano Banana Pro also seems to be good at moving the camera when recreating images, which can add a false sense of authenticity to sets of images, for example:

Über 500.000 Artikel ausgewertet: Eine neue Studie zeigt auf, dass auch die etablierten Parteien diskursive Inhalte der extremen Rechten übernommen haben und damit indirekt deren Wahlerfolge mit gefördert haben.

Exclusive: Anthropic spent $2.66 billion on Amazon Web Services in the first three quarters of 2025, around 100% of their estimated revenue. Its costs appear to increase with their revenue, showing little path to profitability. www.wheresyoured.at/costs/

Prompt engineering is knowing the correct answer and trying to get the chatbot to produce it.

If you're around, feel free to hit me up. #COSCUP over the weekend comes next

Tragic: Being the best person in the company at a job but it isn't your job and you don't want it to be so you just have to watch them fumble this

Shit @rusty.todayintabs.com nailed it www.todayintabs.com/p/we-need-to...

@janboehm.bsky.social wär übrigens geil wenn du auch auf Mastodon weiter zumindest reposten würdest.

The actual public service chatgpt provides is in demonstrating the effect of never hearing the word no on the human psyche, it has made billionaire brain pudding a condition accessible to everyone irrespective of net worth

The CfP for PromCon (Munich, Oct 21+22) is still open for two more days - please submit your @prometheus.io talks :) promcon.io/2025-munich/...

One thing I absolutely hate and despise is being right in my political predictions so much.

It kinda felt odd to have some many weirdly positive #quantum computing slop pieces recently... But maybe #nvidia just has data that implies the #ai bubble is about to burst? NB: if you click through, #reuters will think you're interested instead of laughing www.reuters.com/business/nvi...

More of this please. Co-designing play spaces with children and young people near their homes led to “what researchers say is the highest increase in children’s physical activity ever recorded by an intervention of its kind”

I've run into two instances of people using an #LLM to summarize text and then rely on, and in one case defend, the "conclusions" which #Gemini and #Copilot slopped up, and it's a good thing I'm stopped work early today.

If you're a EU citizen (even if currently not resident, as far as I understand), you are eligible to sign eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/ If this can be pushed over the finish line, an EU-wide ban on anti-scientific cOnVeRsIoN tHeRaPy is in reach Deadline is tomorrow; no idea about specific time 1/2

Stop. Breathe. Listen. Say little. There is nothing you can say that will alter the course of this conversation to your benefit. Sign nothing in that meeting. Your former employer just became the adverse party; don't take legal advice from them.

It puts the commit on its main or else it gets the hose again.

The cool thing about forcing bad guys to sign their malware is that after you catch one instance, you can roll up *all* the malware they've signed.

"You can outsource the work, but not the responsibility." Shout it from the mountain tops!

This is a really interesting piece, and these points are ones I notice a lot in the discourse around GLP-1 drugs: much of the antipathy to them is in & of itself fatphobia, anger or anxiety that takers are “cheating” their way out of the fat = lazy, slim = hard work paradigm.

This means they've budgeted for $112K severance per laid off employee. If you're offered less, don't take it.

Working on a new @prometheus.io homepage (very WIP screenshots) based on @nextjs.org. I built the old homepage >10 years ago and back then I really liked it, but now it looks so old-school (and is outdated under the hood) that a new site was really overdue. Also, we'll have syntax highlighting ;)

#OSUOSL will live on! osuosl.org/blog/osl-fut... Huge congrats to @ramereth.bsky.social and the team for securing their necessary funding. If you or your organization were still considering supporting the lab, don't let this good news stop you. Help it thrive, not just survive!

An alle Sender, Talkshowbetreiber und Medienverantwortlichen: Wer ab heute noch AfD-Vertreter einlädt, kann sich nicht mehr rausreden: Er normalisiert bewusst Rechtsextremismus. Schluss mit der falschen Neutralität! Demokratie bedeutet nicht, Demokratiefeinden ein Forum zu geben.

Wann immer ein Staat härter gegen Rechtsextreme vorgeht, warnen händeringende Zentristen: Wir stärken sie damit, denn jetzt können sie sich als Opfer inszenieren. Leute. Rechtsextreme inszenieren sich noch als Opfer, während sie in Polen einmarschieren. Es ist nichts Neues.

AfD jetzt auch offiziell „gesichert rechtsextremistisch“. Eine Entscheidung, die Folgen haben muss, insbesondere für den ÖRR. Eine „Gleichbehandlung“ von Rechtsextremisten verstößt gegen den Programmauftrag. Verfassungsfeinden darf keine Bühne gegeben werden. Nicht in Talks, nicht in der Tagesschau.

#OSUOSL are good people. They are a load bearing part of true Open Source. Please consider helping them: osuosl.org/blog/osl-fut...

Libera.Chat would not be what we are today, if not for OSL. OSL has been an integral part of open source and open culture project support for a long time. Nonprofits, businesses, and governments, and you depend on projects OSL sponsors. OSL is worth saving. osuosl.org/blog/osl-fut... #osuosl

A senior engineer challenged me on my code today. The premise was all wrong. I tried explaining; they pushed back. I pointed to the relevant man page. Turns out, they fed my code into an LLM, asked it to explain, and it was very misleading. LLMs are putting brains on autopilot. Read the fine manual.

On April 26, an unauthorized user exploited a vulnerability with a GitHub workflow to gain unauthorized access to tokens, all of which have now been invalidated.
