This! "For the foreseeable future, the Go team will stop pursuing syntactic language changes for error handling. We will also close all open and incoming proposals that concern themselves primarily with the syntax of error handling, without further investigation." go.dev/blog/error-s...

🤘 🎤 🎸 #limpbizkit #istanbul #cantwait

We’re the Kubernetes Community Days Istanbul organizers powered by community spirit and fair amount of caffeine. Huge thanks to every speaker, sponsor and attendee who made this possible ❤️🫂 We’re tired. We’re proud. And yes, we’re already thinking about next year. #KCDIstanbul

Also, it was fun to meet and chat with you all f2f at last in the event @eminalemdar.dev @koksay.bsky.social @developerguy.bsky.social @halilbugol.bsky.social *Alp Kahvecioglu* and it was a great catchup after years *Ali Ok*. See you at the next event👋

Many thanks to @kcd.istanbul team for having me this year. Starting to spread the word for the @rust-lang.org‬ Operator SDK plugin was very important for me, and I am glad that I could do it at a KCD event in the city where I live. #rust #kubernetes #operators

@systemcraftsman.com from Red Hat taking us into #Rust land!💥 He’s unveiling a shiny new Operator #SDK plugin—rustaceans, rejoice! 🦀🔧📦 #KCDIstanbul

🎤 Speaker Announcement🎤 We’re thrilled to welcome Aykut M. Bulgu, Principal Software Engineer to the Kubernetes Community Days Istanbul 2025! This is your chance to level up in the cloud-native world! Book your seat now 👇 community.cncf.io/events/detai...

It was a nice suprise to see Rust in action in the season 4 of #HowToSellDrugsOnlineFast #Netflix series. In Rust we tRust:)

I started to use the bookmark that my daugther designed and handcrafted for me, for my #rust readings. Cool, right?🤗

One of the hardest things to explain to people without ADHD: • when it’s interesting, I can start on it • when it’s uninteresting, I can’t Note that the second one is not “I don’t want to.” I literally CAN’T. I have to convince my brain it is interesting to even get started.

Because I can

Hurry up, we’re dreaming!

What do you get if you combine a robust #NoSQL database like @mongodb.bsky.social w/ a high-performance #streamingdata platform like Redpanda? Follow this tutorial by @systemcraftsman.com to learn how to integrate them for real-time #analytics in just 4 steps!

Working on something that will make my new Crustacean charm-buddy more meaningful. Hoping to announce it soon as I am a few steps away from what I initially thought. #kubernetes #operators #operatorsdk #kubebuilder

I've been experiencing Rust generics, trait bounds, and their lifetimes for some time as a newbie Rustacean. It is both fun and not fun:)

"A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds." Oh, this can be my life motto.

🚀 Excited to share an intro to a tutorial of mine: "Testing Kafka Applications with Testcontainers"! 🧪🐳 on @AtomicJarInc blog. 🔍 Testing in app dev is crucial. You can't skip it! But ever wondered about the right balance between debugging & writing tests? Let's dive in! 👇

A very interesting book. Still reading but already love it! #the12weekyear

Managing a #Python #monorepo? You might find want to have a look at #Pants! In this article, I show how to use Pants to manage a Python project that is structured as a monorepo 👇 https://t.co/WBWN5pMqlk I guess this is my first article about Python-relevant stack. Enjoy!

Thanks to the #IstGophers team for having me at #GoKonf this year. I enjoyed presenting "Developing Kubernetes Operators with Golang and Operator SDK". Here are the slides: speakerdeck.com/mabulgu/deve... I guess, see you next year;) Or at an earlier #IstGophers event who knows:)

KCD Istanbul is now on 🦋! Follow us to keep yourself up to date for our next event which is going to take place on May 2025! 🚀 We can’t wait to share the updates with everyone but we’ll have an awesome #KCD! 🎉 bsky.app/profile/kcdi...

Yesterday I had fun presenting "Cloud Native Kafka for Gophers" at #IstanbulGophers online event. I had a nice time talking about #ApacheKafka, #Strimzi, #StrimziCLI, and Go-based Kafka clients like Sarama, #Confluent Kafka Go, kafka-go by #Segment, and franz-go by #Twilio

Time flies! Happy birthday 🎂🎉🥳 #golang

“These are not the controllers you are reconciling for”

🚀 Just read an incredible article by @sjwoodman on the impact of Red Hat's open innovation in the Kafka and Strimzi ecosystem! 🌟 A must-read for anyone interested in Apache Kafka and open-source advancements. Check it out! 🔗 https://t.co/P7JokTJy1z #OpenSource #RedHat #Kafka…

I'm excited to be part of the @CloudNativeFdn @cncfambassadors #CloudNativeAmbassador program! https://www.credly.com/badges/c086387a-4866-4765-875c-9cd68edf58c9/

Golang is weird. I wish I could mock whole the package like I used to do with Python. Structs and interfaces solve the mocking issues but it seems that we have limitations. In Python, I could do way more: https://github.com/SystemCraftsman/strimzi-kafka-cli/tree/main/tests

I was looking for a really good book for Golang and came by @bitfield 's website. I've been following him for some time but somehow I missed his great resources on Golang. There are awesome Go posts on his website's blog to read: https://bitfieldconsulting.com/golang/

Just've finished implementing a client in Go, and this is my first professional Go code I can say (prev. ones have been for personal stuff). Am I happy with my code? - 50/50 Am I happy with Go? - No:) Am I happy with the 3rd mindset shift after Java, and then Python? - YES!
