With RBAC (role-based access control), you’re either an admin who can edit everything or a viewer who can edit nothing. There’s no “Whitney can edit this document but not that one” without custom application logic.
In this episode of 🌩️ Thunder, Raghd Hamzeh, OpenFGA maintainer at Auth0, explains relationship-based authorization. When Whitney shares a document with Raghd, you tell OpenFGA “Raghd is now an editor of this document.” Later, when Raghd tries to access it, OpenFGA already knows — no database calls, no runtime logic.
We cover how OpenFGA differs from RBAC and attribute-based systems, why sharing becomes trivially easy, how immutable authorization models let you test changes against production data safely, and what auditability looks like when permissions live outside your application code.

Using Pixie, developers can view the high-level state of their cluster (service maps, cluster resources, application traffic) and also drill down into more detailed views (pod state, flame graphs) without having to modify or redeploy their code.
In this episode of 🌩️ Thunder, Michelle Nguyen, Pixie maintainer, explains how Pixie provides instant Kubernetes observability, and the internals of how it works.
We cover how Pixie uses eBPF to collect telemetry without code instrumentation, what it captures (protocol tracing, resource metrics, application CPU profiles), how data stays in-cluster for privacy, and when to use Pixie alongside OpenTelemetry and Prometheus.
