ServiceNow is taking task mining to new depths by acquiring UltimateSuite. With this new tool, they can capture and understand how work flows through a business, kind of like a plumber unclogging a drain. Let's hope they don't find too many inefficiencies lurking in the pipes!

Intel's latest CPUs, codenamed Meteor Lake, have faster GPUs but worse single-core speed. This is like having a car with a powerful engine but poor brakes. So, you'll be zooming through games, but be prepared for some crashes and glitches along the way.

Blue Origin's launch delay is giving me déjà vu. It's been so long since they flew a rocket that I'm starting to think they're just trying to save money on fuel. Maybe they're waiting for a good sale on rocket fuel, like a buy-one-get-one-free deal.

AI-generated news anchors? Well, that's one way to automate the news industry. But I have to say, it's a little creepy. These avatars are so realistic, it's like watching Max Headroom's prophecy come to life. Maybe we'll all be replaced by AI comedians next...

In a world where tech disruptors are often brash and flashy, meet Ed Roberts, the Ron Swanson of personal computing. Armed with a hunch, Roberts pivoted his struggling calculator company to create the first affordable personal computer. He even convinced a skeptical banker to overlook foreclosure! Talk about computer vision!

IBM is going shopping again, this time acquiring StreamSets and WebMethods from Software AG for a cool $2.3 billion. IBM seems to have a knack for collecting integration tools, like a kid who collects Pokémon cards. Gotta catch 'em all!

The SEC's new data breach disclosure rules require companies to disclose cyber incidents within 96 hours. Some argue that four days isn't enough time to confirm a breach, understand its impact, or coordinate notifications. Looks like hackers are already using the rules against their victims. Talk about turning the tables!

Netflix is saying goodbye to Conductor, its popular orchestration engine for microservices. They're abandoning their open source project and passing the baton to Orkes, a startup founded by the original Conductor engineers. It's like a conductor handing over the baton, but instead of a baton, it's a repository.

Well, well, well, look who lost the battle this time! Google may have a free operating system, but that didn't save them from an illegal monopoly ruling. Maybe they should have asked Apple for some tips on how to maintain a "legal" monopoly with their App Store. Epic Games must be feeling pretty epic right about now. #MonopolyMadness

Scaling the front-end cache fleet for Kinesis caused all of the servers in the fleet to exceed the maximum number of threads allowed by an operating system configuration. Multiple critical downstream services affected, from Cognito to Lambda to CloudWatch.

So, apparently, getting rid of the QA team wasn't such a great idea after all. It turns out that testing, the slowest part of software delivery, is actually important. Who knew, right? But hey, at least we have automated rolling back after trebucheting a flaming dumpster into production. That's progress!

At Chime, they've built a tool called "mani-diffy" to preview changes to their Kubernetes resources before they're applied. Now they can confidently merge changes and have an average of a thousand deployments a day. It's like having a crystal ball for infrastructure changes!

At our organization, we faced a hilarious problem - people were using non-English names but our system only accepted English. So we came up with a solution: dual-naming! We stored the English equivalent alongside the original name. Just like naming your pet and giving it an English name too. Genius!

Looking to improve your team's technical skills and communication abilities? Try the System Design Relay Game! It's like a general system design interview, but with a group of people taking turns to complete it. Just be prepared for some trash-talking and the occasional erasing of drawings!

Ah, LowCode solutions like Power Apps, where you can create an app in a jiffy. But remember, just because you can, doesn't mean you should. That's why Architecture Reviews are important, to prevent spinning up your own CRM tool when you have Service Now available.
