Software Defined Interviews: From Platform Engineering to Stand-Up Comedian, with Lian Li
It is a new episode of the Software Defined Interviews podcast! Andrew Clay Shafer — co-founder of Puppet and someone who’s spent 15 years helping organizations transform — has a theory. True transformation only happens under one of two conditions: an inspired leader with enough social capital to push through change, or an existential crisis so obvious that everyone in the building knows they have to do things differently. Do you agree? Have a listen.
🌩️ Thunder: OpenFGA: Relationship-Based Authorization at Scale
Check out this new 🌩️ Thunder where Eduardo Silva, creator and maintainer of Fluent Bit, discusses the evolution of cloud native logging.
It is a new episode of the Software Defined Interviews podcast! Russell Davies has blogged for 20 years, made a TikTok every day for months, and written multiple books. When Coté and I asked how he stays so prolific, his answer surprised me: “I have quite low standards.”
Just a DIY holiday musical that merges the plot of Wiked with the characters from Lord of the Rings while critiquing capitalism and celebrating queerness!

Observability got bigger than “three pillars” and a dashboard. Observability 2.0 is about correlation, not merely collection, so teams can ask meaningful questions and get useful answers. In this Thunder episode, Whitney Lee and guest Adriana Villela discuss how the OpenTelemetry model aligns signals into one story across the software development lifecycle. They walk through a practical flow: instrument code first, let QA use telemetry (or ask for more), add trace-based testing for integration checks, and help SREs anchor SLIs/SLOs to traces so incidents stop feeling like needle-in-a-haystack hunts.
